Happy 25th Birthday!

[dixonsafc]

Champ Man/Football Manager is 25 years old today.

The greatest games series of all time. Wasted probably months of my life playing it.

Personal favourite cult heroes from down the years -

Sherman Cardenas
Kerlon
James Flood
Alex Notman
Daniel Nardiello
To Madeira (the back story of how someone just added his mate in as the best player in the game is brilliant)

Is champ man and football manager the same thing?

Maxim Tsigalko and Elder Hadzimehmedivic. Great lads in 01/02, won us the champions league.

The creators of Champ Man moved to Football Manager around 03/04. Champ Man continued to be made by those who had the rights to the name but it was shit.

 

[PhilSAFC]

00/01 was good. The rest were shite

Billy Sharp on '08... oh, my days.

 

[TubeStationAt12]

Hated it when me mates got into this back in the day like, I thought it was boring as fuck.

 

[dixonsafc]

Some right sad sacks outing themselves here like, imagine not loving FM.

 

[EDGE]

What is/was it?

 

[Some Random Guy]

Best game series? It's barely even a game.

 

[Adamoah]

Lukaku and James Rodriguez on FM 10

 

[Big Toe]

I hadn't champ man in the 90s but never really played it after 2001 ish so I didn't use football manager. What's it like now?

 

[Freight Train]

Lost too many hours to CM/FM over the years

As my mate calls it 'spreadsheet manager'


He's right, looking through endless walls of text to find equations and sums put in by the developers to overpower the RNG of the AI.

Pretty much how I see it.

It's all spreadsheets and e-mails. Absolute shit.

i was heavily into it for years, gave up not long ago, just too in depth and takes about a decade to get a few games done.
Just don't have the time, or the patience for it anymore.

Been playing less and less every year since 09, to this on the last i bought.

Logon or register to see this image

[Some Random Guy]

I bought 2014, hadn't played one in over a decade, bored me senseless.
