Got it
The 3D offers nothing really, much prefer the 2D version and players seem to be getting injured easily

its FM08 with pointless additions

Will be getting it when i have sold some games on Ebay, I liked the demo anyway...

won't even run the installanywhere again!

its installed


need to do the online bit

will read war and peace whilst mine is downloading!

Giving it a miss this time, Call of Duty 5 on the Xbox will be holding my full attention for the next 2 years!!

After playing the demo, i don't think there is too much difference between 2009 and 2008 versions. I'll probably end up buying the game, but was going to nip out shortly and get it, think i'll wait and see what happens with all these problems first.

Is it really not much different from 08?

How different do you want it to be? You're going to enjoy it if you're the type of person who buys it every year. If you just want a Football Managing game, go ahead and buy Champ Manager 2001.

Still not worked, keeps saying cannot connent to the internet.

Done the steam, done it all, and all failed so far.

off to work soon, but going to keep it on and my dad or brother can keep trying it again every 10minutes and if the laptops still on at half 3 when I get in, well i hope its installed so i can have a couple of hours on it before I go to bed.

My mate hasn't got the net and text me saying "it's a nightmare, I'll take it back tmoz" He doesn't realise every other sod on the planet (apart from a few of you lot) can't install the damm bludy thing.

Mine was posted on Tuesday from Play.com and I still don't have it. Pissed off with that really, I thought i'd 'pre-ordered' it, I end up getting it late.

Good start to my season with Man Utd.

Sold Rooney to Real for £40m and put a couple of audacious bids in for Torres and Amauri.

Finally got mine activated but it won't load. It's coming up with 'Cannot run game. Failed to set up graphics system'.

Any ideas?

My only problem was actually opening an account with Steam. It kept saying it couldn't be done and to try again later. Once that was done (after about 20 attempts), and the 2 hours it took for the actual game to download, I'm straight in.

Not had any of the access problems people seem to be having. Maybe as its a bit later everyone's sorted!

Anyway, am Leeds and am 3-0 up at HT in my opening friendly with Guiseley (Beckford 2 and Becchio)

I've finally been able to activate the game, and have started a game with Bradford City. I've only played one game in the season so far, which was a three two win over Rochdale thanks to two goals from my new signing Doudin (yes it does appear that he's as good as he was on 200icon_cool.gif and an own goal from Nathan Stanton. I'm a little dissapointed that I threw away a two goal lead at home before Doudin scored the winner but it's a good result to get started with.
