USA gets NO LOVE

[FCDenver5280]

Debating on whether to get TCM2003 or CM4, one thing is for certain it won't be from Stateside. We get NO LOVE for the Football Manager Sims over here.

What is 1 Pound equal to in US Dollars anyway?

$1.66 = £1.00*

Personally I'd recommend CM (no great surprise to anyone there), having been completely unpressed with anything else.

* Value as quoted in todays Sunday Times

I like both of them, TCM doesn't have MLS at all, but I just created them after like 2 months with the a-league with promo/relegation. CM is a great game, TCM looks like it should be much better next year though with everything they are doing with it.

That's the highest exchange in a long time. When I was over to the UK last May, the rate was $1.44.

and there is a place in the US you can order it from, my friend got the new CM from there. I'll ask him for it, email me at keem78@yahoo.com and i'll pass it on.

All right.

I'm really really biased here, but I've been busting my rump on US Soccer Manager, which is just what it sounds like. It's not graphically superior, and it's more a management game than a buy-the-best-players-and-watch-the finances game, but it's fun. For me.

It's not quite done yet, and I hate to advertise it like this, but the only two leagues it has are the MLS and the A-League and it has all the wacky rules for MLS and expansion mode.

Imagine if SI and EA Sports got together and made a management game with the engine of CM and the graphics of FIFA....

If they've got it, I can't find it there. And I was all excited, I drive through Rochester all the time...

they can't sell the game in the usa due to copyright laws and such with the players names and everything. They had the same trouble with germany I believe and made copies with fake names but they didn't think it would sell in the usa very well. I am talking about CM4.

if that link doesn't work, the site is gogamer.com they carry it and they even send you a bar of soap when you buy it. sorry it took so long to get the company from my friend.

I don't want to work for EA!

I would say if you can, try them both out and decide which game you like better, I'm of course biased and have to say CM is miles above TCM, but in the end it's up for your to decide.

Statto - keep up the good work, very good game you have there.

[stattosoftware]

I'd like to work for CM... well SI I guess, thanks profiled, I'm working hard on it.

Personally, CM I'm sure is miles above TCM (despite the bugs), but US Soccer Manager (mine) I'm pretty sure is better with the States, since everything MLS works proper.

Well a month ago I was ordering stuff for my new apartment at the Liverpool website and the rate was like 1.69.
