In FIFA Manager 12 you are responsible for all aspects of the evolution of your team. As coach, you need to take care of the players, organize training, and prepare strategies to help win all the competitions you're entering.

In addition to the tactical functions of a football coach in FIFA Manager 12 you must attend to other important matters, such as finance, new contracts, transfers, budget, management of image rights of the club, official communications with the press, etc. You don't have to run everything yourself though, and there are assistants available to automate some of these tasks.

There aren't many significant improvements to report in FIFA Manager 12 from the previous version, other than updated teams and player data, and graphical improvements to the 3D match view.

On the subject of the 3D match view, the graphics engine in FIFA Manager 12 is a long way short of FIFA 12. Animation can be choppy and up close the players are quite hideous, even bearing a resemblance to zombies with their strange red and green eyes! Bizarrely, there's no in-game sounds in FIFA Manager 12, which leaves matches feeling a bit flat.

Still, watching matches in FIFA Manager 12 is arguably more entertaining than in Football Manager 2012, and we were very impressed with the in-game interface, which allows you to change tactics and strategy, and shout instructions to the team and individual players without leaving the match.

The also program contains hundreds of clubs, with more than 41,000 players and the top leagues in the world to choose from.

The complexity of FIFA Manager 12 is a bit daunting at first but luckily it doesn't take long to find your way around the game.

As with previous versions, Football Manager 2011 allows you to take the reins of a club side, taking care of all aspects of the running of the team. You get to manage finances, negotiate transfers, conduct training, define team tactics, and, ultimately, select the 11 players who you think will do the best job on the field on match day.

Football Manager 2011 gives you more control than ever before over the running of the club. Interaction with players and backroom staff has been significantly improved in this version. Football Manager 2011 allows you to have private chats with players, garner useful advice from your coaches and scouts, and use talks with the press to get your views across to your fans.

The training options have also been improved in Football Manager 2011, allowing you to train players in any of 14 different skill areas. There are now even more pre-game and in-game tactical options too, so you can really refine player and team strategies.

As usual, it's easy to lose yourself in Football Manager 2011, such is the sheer scale of the program. New game options such as the news subscription service, while useful, can prove a distraction, and overwhelm inexperienced players, making things even more complicated than they already are. Sure, the user interface is neat and friendly, and there's lots of readily accessible in-game tips and advice, but Football Manager 2011 still throws up dozens of drop-down menus at every turn.

The in-game graphics in Football Manager 2011 are better than ever before. Assuming you have a PC with the right spec, you can enjoy slick TV highlights of the games with impressive animations and lots of viewing options such as camera angles and instant replays.

Football Manager 2011 feels more like a full time job than a game, at times. This is great for experienced soccer strategist looking for a realistic management experience. Newcomers will need a lot of patience to get into the game, though.

Having been blown away by the previous version of FIFA, we found it hard to imagine how EA could possibly improve its slick soccer sim. However, after a few matches of this demo version it’s clear that the changes aren’t merely cosmetic.

Refined gameplay

The enhancements to the gameplay in FIFA 11 make it feel a lot more like real football. The new Personality+ system means that players move and act as they do in real life. This means, for example, that Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney will charge around after the ball when he’s not in possession; while his strike partner Dimitar Berbatov is more content to stand around waiting for something to happen!

Other tweaks to the AI help to make FIFA 11 the most enjoyable version to-date. For instance, on crosses, it’s now normal to see more than one player coming up for the ball. You’ll also notice that the players are a bit faster than they were in FIFA 10.

Another important change in FIFA 11 is the ability to control the goalkeeper, which feels very natural and adds an extra element to the gameplay.

Handballs are introduced for the first time in FIFA 11. When a defender is positioned in the line of a shot he may stick out his hand to block it. The frequency of handballs is a little higher than it would be in real life, but you can disable them, or define that they don’t occur in penalty situations.

FIFA 11 also features a more refined passing system, giving you more control over ball distribution. The Pro Passing feature lets you measure passes more precisely by weighting them. The repertoire of passes has been beefed up too, and you can now perform swerve passes, flicks, driven lobs and apply backspin to balls.

One of the changes we didn’t like is the new penalty kick system, which is based around a power-bar. Stopping the pointer in the right place is very difficult because it takes a while to respond to your button press. This makes scoring penalties in FIFA 11 a difficult thing to do.

Graphical tweaks

At first glance, FIFA 11’s graphics don’t look that different to the ones in the last version. Once you start seeing replays or close-ups, however, you realize that player likenesses are now more realistic. EA modeled player faces using photographs, and facial expressions are now more varied and change according to the player.

Another neat addition to FIFA 11 is the ability to upload your own audio for use within the game. You can record your own chants, add audio files of actual team chants, and define the music that a team runs out to.

Game modes
FIFA 11 is still stacked with lots of game modes, including officially licensed leagues, exhibitions, training and Be a Pro. The one significant change this time out is the rehashing of the Manager mode, which is now known as Career mode, and integrates with Be a Pro. This is now more involved in that you start out as a player before becoming a player coach and eventually a fully-fledged manager.

These interesting new features, combined with super intelligent gameplay, make FIFA 11 the quintessential soccer sim.

Considering the amount of money EA must make from FIFA 10, it's amazing that the games publisher has chosen to release FIFA Online as a free game. It's not as fully fledged as the latest incarnation, and graphically it's more similar to FIFA 08. Not that we're complaining though!

FIFA Online includes a multitude of different game modes. You pick your favorite team from a large selection of leagues and clubs (all with real life player data) then you must lead that side to glory. You can play single-player leagues, online tournaments with strangers, friendlies against friends, and even choose to play in the FIFA World Cup 2010 tournament.

FIFA Online has a lot of depth to it. There's a fairly detailed management mode in which you must set formations, negotiate contracts, deal with player injuries and suspensions, and more.

In it for the money

Of course, EA didn't make FIFA Online as a goodwill gesture to players. It made it to make money. Players are invited to buy tokens that are used for everything from unlocking certain game modes to helping a player to recover quicker from an injury.

Of course, the polished 3D graphics, full voice commentary and the sheer size of FIFA Online take its toll in terms of system requirements. You'll need a decent processor (upwards of 1.8GHz, ideally) and a fast internet connection if you want to avoid lags and frame rate.

It's still in beta stage, yet FIFA Online already shows signs of ushering in an exciting new generation of football games.

Football Manager is generally regarded as the best soccer management game out there. In recent years though, FIFA Manager has made up some ground on its rival, and this latest incarnation is the most impressive to date.

FIFA Manager 10 is perhaps a better choice than Football Manager 2010 if you're a newcomer to management sims. The FIFA game holds your hand a bit more, guiding you through the nuances of all of the strategic elements and explaining how to access all of the menus. The user interface is colorful and attractive with well laid-out menus and visual aids. Features such as a news Website, magazine, and an 'Ups and Downs' that helps you track the performance of your youth side, are very well presented and give the game that polished look you associate with the FIFA game series.

You start a game in FIFA Manager 10 by creating a profile, where you not only set your personal details, but also choose a team and define your targets for the season. Once you're up and running you'll need to pay attention to all aspects of the running of the club, such as team tactics, coaching, youth team, transfers, dealing with the press, and even controlling the merchandising and running of the club shop. Such is this level of diversity, FIFA Manager 10 often feels more like a series of different strategy games joined into one.

For the first time ever, FIFA Manager 10 comes with an online mode, although this is, unfortunately, absent from this demo version.

FIFA Manager 10 consists of almost 4,000 clubs and there are 37,000 players available. yet somehow it manages to feel a lot lighter and less overwhelming than some of its opponents. Mind you, it doesn't feel as in-depth as Football Manager 2010 in terms of the options available to you.

In effect, FIFA Manager 10 wins the prize for 'style', while Football Manager 2010 triumphs in the 'substance' stakes.

One of the areas that's most improved in Football Manager 2010 is the match engine. The 3D view has been polished up considerably, with 100 new player animations, and more realistic player behaviors.

Touches in Football Manager 2010, such as the fact that the pitch cuts up and degrades over the course of a game, and the fact that the weather conditions can change during matches, means you have even more to think about while a match is in progress. For instance, players may get tired quicker or become injured due to adverse conditions. Thankfully, the number of in-game touchline instructions has been ramped up, with 22 different commands now available.

Football Manager 2010 improves upon its already fantastic tactics functions. The tactics creation module, known as the Tactics Creator, lets you tweak the strategy, the team philosophy, and the individual role of players with incredible precision. Analysis of matches in Football Manager 2010 is more in-depth too, with the ability to assess shots, passes, crosses, headers, tackles, fouls and interceptions in every game.

As per usual, Football Manager 2010 includes a database of leagues, teams and players that the CIA would be proud of. The game is fully licensed and allows you to play in the major leagues from around the World, with access to a dizzying array of facts and figures on all the players. If you're still not satisfied and want to play in a different league then take advantage of the powerful new data editor within Football Manager 2010.

Sports Interactive has also ramped up the off-field features within Football Manager 2010, giving you a host of new features such as RSS feeds with latest news, realistic press conferences, and the chance to converse with other players on forums.

Best of all, Football Manager 2010 is easier to play the the previous version, ditching the side bar navigation of old in favor of a more intuitive, tab-based system. What's more, you can choose from either a black or a white skin.

There's no doubt that Football Manager 2010 is the most comprehensive, fully-featured version of this legendary sim. The trouble with this is, it often feels like a full-time job with so many things to take into consideration. Install this demo and wave goodbye to your social life!

Note, that the latest version, Football Manager 2011 is now available. Check out our review, here.

While it's visually not far removed from its predecessor, the FIFA 10 PC demo will demonstrate some "under the hood" changes that really improve the game. The biggest is the introduction of 360 degree control. Your players no longer move in just eight directions, but whatever way you want. This makes control a much more subtle, and gives you greater flexibility and the ability for much more creative play.

FIFA 10's player animation has been totally revamped - they move with real character now and dribbling looks great. Your teammates have also had an intelligence upgrade, making them act more naturally, and thus less likely to do what you want them to.

FIFA 10 management has also been upgraded, perhaps in response to the richer experience in the Konami's Pro Evolution Soccer. FIFA 10 players now come with 'ambition', which affects their decisions - if your team is full of defenders, it might be difficult to convince another to join, as not playing much is rarely what a player wants to further his career.

A cleaner and more subtle game than its predecessor, FIFA 10 is quite an improvement, and another step towards a totally realistic football experience.

Pro Evolution Soccer is a long running soccer game that puts you right in the action of the beautiful game.

The last couple of years have been a bit disappointing for Pro Evolution Soccer and its fans. The title has been criticized for its failure to innovate, and subsequently it has lost its crown as the king of football games to the increasingly fluid and more realistic, FIFA series.

As a result, this season is perhaps the most important in the history of Pro Evolution Soccer . Naturally, we were pretty excited to see how it plays and, for the first time in years, the new version of Pro evolution Soccer doesn't manage to disappoint.

Off the ball

One thing that was widely panned in Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 was the menu system. The set-up menus looked like been built in half an hour by a four-year-old. Navigating the in-game tactics and formation menus on the other hand, was like trying to crack the entry code on the front door of the Pentagon. Thankfully, things have been improved greatly in Pro Evolution Soccer 2010. Although the garish pink and black color scheme remains, all the menus are better organized and more 'professional' than the previous version.

The tactics and formation system has been treated to a complete overall, and it's a thousand times better than the previous Pro Evolution Soccer fiddly series of menus. Team tactics are controlled using slide bars, to precisely set elements such as pressing, defensive line, counter attacking etc. Preview windows explain exactly what will happen to your line-up as you make changes to these tactics.

Player 'cards' are another feature that's been talked up in Pro Evolution Soccer 2010. Each player has a series of cards when you view his stats that show you instantly the areas he is good in (e.g. free kicks, goal poaching, heading, etc.) This system is far easier on the eye than having to focus on huge lists of stats, like you had to in the previous Pro Evolution Soccer.

On the ball

Of course, as with real football, the most important stuff happens on the pitch. And here, thanks to a completely revamped game engine, Pro Evolution Soccer is more realistic than ever before. In fact, it’s almost too realistic.

The player likenesses are better than ever before, naturally. Faces are rounder, limbs are less jagged, and the animations are fluidly lifelike. Not only this, but individual players techniques and physical attributes are accounted for in Pro Evolution Soccer 2010. Take a shot as Henry and it will be an Henry-style strike; Make Rooney run and he’ll run like Rooney; Fall to the ground as Drogba and he’ll go down like Drogba (however, we didn't find a way to make Drogba swear at the camera or attempt to intimidate the referee - features we hope to see in the final version).

The 'feel' of Pro Evolution Soccer is still as absorbing and you’ll be able to pick it up and play it in much the same way as you have with the last 10 or-so versions. However, there have been plenty of tweaks to the gameplay to make it more realistic. The first is that it feels a little more sluggish. The ball feels much heavier than before, and it doesn’t quite zip off the surface like it used to. What’s more, turning and dribbling like you’ve got treacle on your boots.

Collision detection has been smartened up in Pro Evolution Soccer 2010, and you can’t just expect the ball to stick to your foot once it’s been delivered. Mis-control it and it can go flying off your toe into row-Z, or worse still bounce of your toe into row-Z, or worse still bounce of your shin and into the path of an oncoming striker.

No doubt the new gameplay features will infuriate you at first and you’ll feel like it’s ruined the game for you. Remember though, that it always takes a while to settle into a new Pro Evolution Soccer, and once you’ve got used to it, you’ll be praising the ingenuity of the developers for creating such a realistic and challenging simulation of the beautiful game.

I'm a huge soccer fan although when it comes to gaming, I prefer hands-on games like Pro Evolution Soccer than a Football Manager-style game, such as New Star Soccer 4.

However, if you are a management game fan and you've completed Championship Manager several times over, winning the Champions League as Bristol City, then New Star Soccer may well appeal. Note, firstly, that to make it work, you'll have to drag the icon to your applications folder - you can't run it from the disk image.

The setup process in New Star Soccer is fairly lengthy. When you start the game, you're asked to select which countries and leagues you'd like to compete in. I chose to start off my player in FC Kabul in Afghanistan and on start-up, was informed that they'd offered me a trainee contract. The names of the clubs, players and even cup competitions are slightly altered for legal reasons so don't expect any realism there.

However, in terms of depth, New Star Soccer 4 is to be commended. You can configure everything from your hair color to your personality type (I chose 'Party Animal') all of which will affect your player's performances. The game is supposed to accurately re-create all the things that a professional player has to deal with on a daily basis. If your personal life suffers so will your performance, and the choices you make will ultimately determine your success.

Once you've configured everything correctly, you actually play the games yourself although the match gameplay is very poor. For a start, the computer does not select the nearest player to the ball to control automatically so you can end up just chasing around the pitch like a headless chicken trying to get the ball with the same player all match. The player controls are with the cursor keys and spacebar to shoot.

There's a lot more to New Star Soccer 4 than this and combined with a jazzy soundtrack throughout, it's a decent attempt at a comprehensive soccer management sim game.

Football Manager, or Championship Manager as it started life, has been the cause of many a flunked exam, failed relationship, and job loss, such is its addictiveness.

The annual update to the life-stealing game is here in the shape of Football manager 2009. And as usual, its developers Sports Interactive have thrown even more refinements at it, making it just about as close to the real thing as is humanly bearable.

Of course, all of the game data in Football Manager 2009 has been updated to include the latest players transfers and league information. In fact, the database is so ridiculously large that you'll probably find the guys from your local park team in there, all complete with profiles, pictures, history, etc. Luckily, the interface is intuitive enough to cope with the sheer range of data, options and functions, using an Outlook-style approach to organize the various different menus.

Probably the most significant addition to Football Manager 2009 is the new 3D game engine. This means that rather than watching games play out with little discs representing the players, you can now view the action in a more realistic fashion. Granted, the graphics are not exactly Pro Evolution or FIFA standard, but it still gives you much more of a flavor of what's happening in the matches and helps you to analyze individual player performances more easily. There are a range of different views and angles to choose from, including the good old floating discs.

Your assistant manager in Football Manager 2009 is much more useful than he was in previous versions. He's now able to give you feedback during matches about the way the tactics are going, as well as sorting out training schedules and giving team talks. You'll probably welcome all this help, since this is the most involved Football Manager game in history.

These days, real life football managers are forced into much more interaction with the media, and the new press features in the game reflect this. Every day, you get reports of transfer rumors involving your players, or players that you're allegedly interested in. Though sometimes annoying, this can be useful for discovering players based on names being bandied around by the papers. In Football Manager 2009 you're also expected to take part in press conferences, carefully choosing your answers to a stream of questions posed by journalists (who, incidentally, are from real-life local newspapers and media outlets).

All of this means that Football Manager 2009 is the most involved soccer management sim in history and playing it genuinely does feel like a full-time job. In a way this takes away from the addictiveness of the early versions of Champ Manager, where it was much easier just to switch on your PC and play out a whole season in an afternoon. These days, you could feasible spend a whole real-life day playing just one in-game day.

That said, Football Manager 2009 does offer an unrivalled gaming experience, and the changes to this version make it well worth upgrading to if you have 2008.

There are many different football videogames to suit all tastes: some like soccer simulators where you get to play actual games on field, while some others prefer a more strategic approach, that is, managing the team as a coach.

The latter will probably like Bygfoot Football Manager, an open-source football management game that puts you in control of a football team during the league season. As a coach/manager, you'll be in charge of training sessions, contracting new players, selling other players and defining team's strategy in order to succeed both in league and other football competitions.

Being an open-source project, you shouldn't expect high-res graphics or amazing physics. In fact, the game barely shows any animations as it's all controlled through windows and menus. However this should not be a problem for hardcore football manager fans who doesn't care that much about the realism of graphics, but about the gameplay in itself. In that sense, Bygfoot Football Manager is going to surely please them.

Bygfoot Football Manager doesn't have brilliant graphics or jaw-dropping physics, but as a classic football manager it proves to be quite complete and very entertaining.

UEFA Euro 2008 plays virtually the same as FIFA 08 aside from a few tweaks. For instance, there's a new 'flick' mode for free kicks (and penalties), where you control the power and swerve of the shot using your right-analog stick. It's certainly an improvement, but still too fiddly and difficult to master.

Other additions to UEFA Euro 2008 over FIFA 08 include in-game player ratings which update in real-time depending how each individual is performing, and improved collisions, trapping and goalkeeper AI. You even get to see the managers' reactions to goals, free kicks and near-misses.

Aside from the gameplay changes in UEFA Euro 2008, there are a couple of new game modes. Captain Your Country sees you take the role of your team's skipper and influence the other players while you're out on the pitch, and there's a new online mode called Battle of the Nations.

Of course, all the official stadiums, real players, kits, balls, haircuts, etc. are there, and UEFA Euro 2008 features 52 European teams. Of course, there were only 16 teams at the 2008 Euro Championships, but by increasing the number EA has helped to add more depth and longevity to this title.

There are two main kinds of football games: the ones where you actually play the match against your competitor, moving the team players across the field, and the ones where you play as the manager of the team.

In fact, the game is so complete that it feels just too overwhelming when you run it for the first time. Also, the fact that the tutorial is broken doesn't help either. But after playing it for a while, you can tell that this game is going to get you hooked on your computer for hours. Just one tip: use your own background music because the game doesn't have any.

There are two kinds of football gamers, those that want an authentic footballing experience, and people who play FIFA. Pro Evolution Soccer won the hearts of the former with their first release, which managed to make you feel like you were playing a game of football that you could have been watching on television. They got so much right in that first game that subsequent releases have been bemoaned for their lack of 'big' developments. But we have had faster gameplay, more subtle ball control and some great set-piece changes. Now in 2008 Pro Evolution Soccer has 'Teamvision'.

'Teamvision' is the big news of the latest edition of Pro Evolution Soccer and involves the computer's players owning a kind of 'artificial intelligence' that allows them to adapt and react to your gameplay. So much so that you now need to play in true Kenny Dalglish-style as a kind of player-manager with one eye on winning the match and one eye on making sure your tactics outwit your opponent's. Defenders and goalkeepers are more responsive to danger and attacking players make more intelligent runs off the ball, which is now a special blue Pro Evolution Soccer leather number four if I'm not mistaken - it does seem rather small. Plus there are some nice manager and dug-out shots during the games and goalscorers celebrate with the subs. You also get extensive editing options if false names still annoy you.

The retail version of Pro Evolution Soccer came out in November 2008. You can beat all your mates and rest happy for another year.
