Given that we’re in the beginning of the silly season and have little else to talk about besides wild unsubstantiated transfer rumors, I thought I might submit a miniscule (and admittedly way off-topic) problem to all of the illustrious minds here at ArseAm.
The problem is this:
About 10 years ago I purchased a football manager sim (on PC) for my aunt. For the better part of a year and a half, she was absolutely hooked on it, but lost her copy of the game shortly before her system melted.
Since then, she’s gone through extended phases with other (some might say “easier” sim programs: Civ 1, 2 & 3, etc…) , but has never recaptured the enjoyment she had with the manager sim.
Unfortunately, I can’t remember what the name of that original sim was (since it was all text and tables, and comparing my memory of the game to descriptions I’ve read on ebay, I’m suspecting it might have been “Championship Manager”).
So, she now has a P3/500 and I thought it might be nice to get her a new(er) football manager sim (off of ebay probably). Unfortunately, I have no idea which, of the four or five titles available, is generally thought of now as the best manager sim.
Which one would you avid game players suggest (and please don’t mention that she should upgrade her system, as that goes without saying, but is impractical for the near future)?
Secondly, if I bought a game from England would it be playable here (or at least playable without having to change the system preferences, installing a slew of drivers and the like)?
Thanks in advance.
