Well its that time of year again demo available from http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=153770

Supposedly a big improvement on last year with you being able to instruct players on what to do rather than move sliders about. Dunno not played any of the last few for more than a few games of the demo before I got bored. Seems decent though much more interaction from your backroom staff and the like. Signed fat Ronaldo and Van Der Vaart for Villa and looking at a cheeky deal for Kalou to finish my spending while seeing how much I can get City to offer for Milner who they want.

Yeah I seriously don't have the time to play it anymore. The last game I started was in the Blue Square North League and I didn't even finish a season. Could always go back I suppose.

Tactics are wonderful, you can actually just tell your players what to do without it being stupidly complicated

Out tomorrow, in two minds about buying it. Demo is quality, best version they've ever done easily. Just don't know if I'll be bothered actually playing it for long.

The demo is great and creating tactics is fantastic. They still haven't fixed the ingame substitution confirmation though. Kinda shitty.

If I want to sub a player and while I wait an injury occurs to another player on my team, I should have the chance to cancel the original sub and compensate for the injured player. Right now I would have made two subs, the original one I chose and a new one for the injured player. SI said they were going to address that but never did. Small gripe for an incredible game.

I'll pick this up or DL in a month or 2 as ever. Always releases right around the same time as Evo and I never really have time to play both of them

I ordered it a few weeks ago, i think it was from Zavvi. Managed to pre-order it for £20 which was a good half price cheaper than the other places like Play.com and Amazon.

I love these games and what not, but they're totally frustrating at the beginning. For instance, to give myself a quick warm up for FM10 i went and had a play on 09.

Within a few weeks of playing ingame half my squad was unhappy because loads of clubs wanted to steal all my players. Every transfer window was the same so it ended up being annoying to hell.

This is rather great, only bad point is the media stuff is still dull and pointelss but just leave that to my assistant and everything else is much improved.

Nice, am definitely getting it after next weekend. Hopefully in future they'll find a way to improve the media bit.

Got the game today, enjoying it so far, love the new tactic options during a match especially.
