Never bought the last one as i heard it was crap, but think ill pick this one up.

Prepares to lose alot of time to FM once again :lol:

FM13 is the best football management game since CM 01/02. Generally, the people who thought it was 'crap' were those who relied on cheat tactics in previous games, which no longer work (to the same degree anyway) on the latest game. It's by far the most involving, immersive game of the series. Played this one for more hours than any of the previous versions.

I'm currently at 523 hours, my record is 2012 with 549 hours, so I'll likely be the same

What a fucking joke that is. Having to buy the Editor. Chancing b*****ds

I think you get a free editor as always. But you can purchase one that lets you edits things during a save game that take effect during the save. No doubt you'll find something to moan about that though aswell SOL

I've made an executive decision and I won't be buying this. Hardly played FM13 (something like 10 hours) and it's just not worth my time right now. I have the time to play it but I haven't enjoyed it at all. It's not just FM13, 12/11/10... too. So, for now, I won't be getting it. This may well change but I don't put in the man hours any more and this makes me sad.

there is, Every year you come on and moan about FM 'cause you're too much of idiot to work steam or moan about new features because they just confuse your simple brain.

Says the guy who was in fits of rage because you couldn't un train a player in a position...

Fucks sake lads. Leave the personal abuse out of it. The use of the term 'mongo' is really not on.

Get on with discussing your game, leave out the shite, eh?

You could've at least deleted my posts too so I don't look like I'm a complete cretin with random smilies after my own posts and a very misplaced "loud noises" GIF :lol:

I didn't buy FM13 as my laptop is hardly good enough for FM12. I just use the 2D match engine though. I prefer it to 3D.

I will buy FM14 after I get a new laptop. I would have probably waited until after the first patch was out as one of the two things you can guarantee about a new FM is that it will be riddled with bugs the other being that Dundee Utd will be overrated.

I'm gagging for a wee game though. I haven't played FM for about 5 months.
