Also new is a large database containing more than 75,000 historical results from various leagues! A powerful editor is included in the game. A main focus of FIFA MANAGER 08 lies on regional content: This ranges from a total of 24 Spanish leagues to the Spanish nomination system, includes the 6th English league level and realistic financing by big international investors. You can offer your own players to other clubs directly, make long-term promises when you sign players, and use the option "Last Word" in negotiations.

GameSpot

The third entry in EA's football management series is deeper than ever, although it can be difficult to use.

EuroGamer

Despite still containing its fair share of problems, FIFA Manager 08 has taken a significant step forward for the series, arguably showing a greater level of improvement over the past twelve months than either Football Manager or Championship Manager.

Jolt Online Gaming UK

Unlike its rivals, FIFA Manager 08 has come on leaps and bounds from last season’s effort, and we can only see it improving further.

Pelit (Finland)

A promising manager game but fails to keep its promises. User interface is horrible and private life options are just for nothing. At times the game feels almost fresh, but fails in all aspects to bring anything new and working to manager game genre. [Jan 2008]

AceGamez

A massive game that tries to create a complete football coach's life for you and its hugely ambitious efforts should be admired. In the end however, the game is a lot like a going on a holiday where your hotel has fifteen waterslides, a bar in the pool, a great games room, a gym and a spar, but the toilet in your room is dodgy and the bed is uncomfortable.

PC Zone UK

The best thing about this game is the "Grandstand" theme tune. [Feb 2008, p.89]

Easy to get into, ages to master and the 3D engine puts the others in the shade.

Paul E. gave it a1:
Include 3d matches. that`s a perfect feature. an lots of other features. but they pomp lots of marketing in it. the truth is this game is always released unfinished, with tons of bugs and mismanaged technical issues. patches rarely if not never solve nothing of importance. and price is always so high, you might think it`s the best game in history. in fact it`s a marketing product, poorly developed and with no care for the customer. like strategies and management? look for tycoons!

Vedant P. gave it a9:
A game which is very skillful, we can use those skills in real life also.
