Football Manager 2018 Reviews
Football Manager 2018 won't take your breath away but it will satify you if you have to play the new FM game right now. Otherwise I'd advise you to wait untill March, when the big patch hits.

Football Manager 18 is a strong step forward and guarantees even more realism and control over your team.
At its heart, Football Manager 2018 remains a compelling experience, delivering rollercoaster highs of conquering the world while battling the agonising lows of relegation and sackings. The problem is the first signs of weariness are really starting to show themselves in this year's edition. It is like an ageing star in the twilight of their career; more than previously, there is a lack of genuine innovation from a team of developers who are held up to an exceptionally high standard. For sure, there are some welcome additions; the performance of the 3D match engine, alongside the revamps of scouting and medical teams, for instance, show that Sports Interactive does take refinement seriously. However, the continuing focus on the aspects most fans of the series find the most tiresome - the social media and player conversations - portray a worrying trend of the wrong path being pursued. The fundamental strengths of Football Manager remain, yet it seems a better strategy these days is possibly to pick up the title every two seasons for the best 'bang for buck' factor. For the annual buyer, this year's might prove a tougher pill to swallow and could well be deserving of one mark lower.
Football Manager 2018 is another remarkable installment in this beloved series that take some things to the next level and as usual neglects some of the more fundamental issues.

Crack-like, divorce-initiating football-management sim adds a 'utility player' or two
Football Manager 2018 does not show anything extremely revolutionary or new, trying rather to start from what was good in the past. Compared with the beta, many problems have been eliminated, but there is still some annoying. Ultimately Football Manager 2018 is a very good title even though there hasn't been the leap of quality that we would have expected.

Football fanatics will adore any edition of Football Manager - being the latest release chock-full of new features while still keeping what made the previous games great, there is no better place to start learning than here.
Sports Interactive have once again upped the ante. Football Manager 2018 is still the king of the sport manager genre.
