Old day? Wasn't that last week?

EIDOS, unlike SEGA with FM'05, aren't going to show CM5 at the E3, they may just not be too far in coding the game...
Well, BGS did have to start work from scratch, didn't they.
More info will be released with the opening of the site, obviously, they'd be foolish to waste a chance at free publicity like opening a new official site like that. Not sure about screens, maybe the first batch of leagues.

I think Si has alead at the momment.But I think Eidos will produce something satisfactory.

 

[Áļéאָ]

I dont think it will be a good game. You cant just make a true CM just any time. If it was like that there wud be more games as good as CM. And we all know there are not any other good mangment games out there

 

[Tom]

yup completly agree with alex

personally i see it like this:

FM will be timeless legend, the one player that is always on the teamsheet who always performs - aka Roy Keane

CM5 will be the young starlet who while having vast potential is yet to fulfill it. AKA.... er.... John Welsh....

TROD.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

I think CM can really surprise you all, they know which features they have to put in to make it a good game, and if they make the game faster as they say it can be a very good game.

I'll probably buy CM first, and then bring it back and change it for FM

 

[Tom]

i doubt the first version of CM5 will be that good

TROD.

 

[rpvankasteren]

So do I, but it might be enjoyable.
