    The game is great, an improvement over yet another stellar OOTP product.

    Expands on nearly every aspect of the series. The new game provides much more information than previous versions, so you feel more in control of your club.

    Remarkably deep when it comes to gameplay... Beware of the load times, though, they can be bad.

But the ability to set any league size, start at any year in history, import real players from any year, expand or contract your league, manage every game or play GM, roleplay as a manager, customer service that has released a patch after 5 days fo the game being available, the best community built around a sports game EVER...how can you possibly complain about a game like this?… Expand
