"Football Manager is the main game in the UK, but FIFA Manager has around 95 per cent market share in Germany,"Interesting, he had some things to say about FML
"Football Manager Live is probably the best you can do with a classic approach to the game for a limited number of people. There is very tough competition between the players and for every game you must have a loser, and they get very frustrated,"
Later on he goes on to say that he's impressed with the numbers playing browser type games.
From a personal point of view I last played FIFA Manager a few years ago and it seemed to be treading the same path as Football Manager giving me too much to do. I just want to play a Football Management game where I can finish a season in a few hours.
Personally I like the rags to riches theme so things that fit into this would be creating a stadium, building up youth etc. I don't want press conferences or to be doing match talks that means I have a drop down box saying 'try harder'. I wish the developers would focus more on a better Match Engine with proper stadiums like the old Classic USM.
It's a hard balance between Sim and Arcade.
Still going to keep an eye on FIFA Manager might be time to try this franchise again.
