It was the first one I'd managed to play and get addicted to since 2007. The games in between just seemed… lifeless. I bought FM15 as a result of being partially disillusioned with console football sims that don't keep my attention further than either online play - of which my enjoyment threshold is very limited - or a season or two max in Career Mode.

    Missing out on a couple of instalments means all of the additions over the years were lumped into one affordable Steam sale package. And after pouring 200+ hours into the game so far, I'm very glad that I went and bought it. The increased player interaction and match options allow me to get ever closer to the complete footballing package.

    The game is rather buggy at the moment but I am raising my grade from 5 to 7, the game engine is excellent and if SiGames fixes the corner, cross and injury problems then this is a solid 9. Just please for Gods sakes do it now!

    Çok fazla yeni özellik ve geliştirme mevcut. En önemlisi, geçen yıldan beri yapılan çoğu geri bildirimi değerlendirip yapmışlar, çokta güzel olmuş. Maç moturunda ve oyunun genelinde yapay zeka gelişmiş. Ufak tefek hatalar düzeltilebilir.

    The game is a vast improvement over FM 2013 (my last game). The user interface has been changed drastically and new options have been added - you could even call them slight RPG elements. You can earn licenses and what not. The match engine is pretty and there is just as much micromanagement as in the past. This will definitely be a time sink for me, MUST BUY! :)

    overall a good game new interface is easy to use and is a welcome change. however the match engine needs tweaking but overall many hours of exciting gameplay.

    Nice game, nice interface, pretty accurate database. I always thought that it was a scissors, paper, rock game and I should just fine the "thing" to win all games but it's not. The thing you do "on the bench" really affects the players on the field. The 3D is indeed pretty bad but for me it doesn't matter because I use 2D. If I wanted a graphical football game I would have chosen FifaNice game, nice interface, pretty accurate database.

    The initial version was full of bugs but now, with the latest updates, it feels good.

    Cant understand the low reviews, game is fun and after the big update the new engine gets realistic scores. Spent more hours with this game then with any other .

    I absolutely love this game. I got it late in the year, on a 50% off Steam Sale, so by then I assume most of the bugs had been fixed. I have had no issues with this game lagging. For the most part, I find that it's a reasonably realistic simulation.

    I started my campaign with Bristol City, in the first year I got promoted from League 1 to the Skybet Championship, and I won the Jonstone Paint Trophy.

    For the most part, game scores seem realistic, it's fun to tinker with individual player tactics and Corner Kick/Free Kick instructions to get the results you want. I typically look at my opposition and see who's tired, who has bad morale and who gives the ball away the most, and try to put more pressure on those players.

    Are you ready to shell out for a pricey graphics update? Because as a simulator, Football Manager did not mature at all.

    Improvements in this edition might not be essential, but it’s still a brilliant game. Simply brilliant. Once again I spend every spare moment either playing it or thinking about it. [13/2014, p.75]

    Football Manager 2015 is the best version in a series that has been peerless for many years. It’s not the kind of overhaul that suggests players of last year’s game desperately need to upgrade, but the hardcore will not be dissatisfied. And if you’re a lapsed fan, then we’ll see you in your suit come cup final day.
