in fifa manager 06 i did the same...
ok, i am fully aware that Turkish First Division is not one of the most reputable soccer leagues in Europe but come on... learn some basics like foreign player number that can be picked in a game... in Turkish First Division you are allowed to have 6 foreign players (eu or non-eu, doesn't matter) and you are allowed to put them in your squad all at once... the game doesn't allow you do that!... there was a time when your were allowed to have 6 foreign players but play 5 of them at once and you were allowed to substitute one foreign with another during the game, so called 5+1 but that was 3-4 years ago!
i am a fan of ex-Championship Manager games, now the Football Manager series (king is dead, long live the new king).. but because of its successes in soccer games i really give credit fo EA Sports' manager series... i started playing manager games with EA's fifa soccer manager, which was great in my opinion so there is no bias in the words above... i played (at least tried) to play total club manager too last year but that was largely disappointing too..
EA Sports pays money and buys the name rights of the most reputable leagues, clubs, players etc... Electronic Arts as a whole does the same in its other genre games too such as Need for Speed series.. and they polish the games really very well... the finishing is really good... but you know what, "finishing" is not everything... you need "flair", "anticipation" etc.. the best "polished" car will fall apart once it hits concrete... and manager game addicts are really stiff on those...
i guess i should dump my game with Fenerbahçe in the Turkish First Division and go pick up Chelsea or Barça or Real or Juve like everbody does... damn, i hate being "everybody"....
