Default Football Manager, Worldwide Soccer Manager, or wait 'till CM05?

Hello all... long time Championship Manager player here... was wondering what the difference between Worldwide Soccer Manager & Football Manager is (if any), and was curious if it would be recommended to buy one of those, or to wait for Eidos's CM5 to come out?

Thanks!

FM/WWSM are closest to the Old CM games. These games are made by Sports Interactive, the people who's research, hard work, and perserverence molded the old CMs.

The new CM5 will be some new concoction by Eidos. The Publisher of the old CMs. Hired some new company for the next game.

Worldwide Soccer Manager is the same as Football Manager but with the American English language pack.

Go to the url in my profile for more info.

CM5 will probably suck. Buy whatever is cheaper for you WWSM or FM, it's the same thing.

WWSM is a great, great game. i never played the old CM's but i would highly recommend WWSM (just make sure it doesn't completely take over your life, like it has forme).

FM/WSM includes MLS and (from what I understand) CM5 won't.

If that's true, then I definitely won't be checking out CM5.

CM5 is out here in England & it is very poor, the makers have totally messed it up. On the forum of the CM5 website the game has got hammered. I believe the site is down at the moment.
They tried to add to much detail & neglect other things. The MLS is not on the game.
