    Good start for all wannabe football managers with nice visuals and plenty of activities. Main flaws for Czech fans can be found in its incomplete database. [Dec 2011]

    A big, detailed database wrapped in a friendly UI, then wasted on an unresponsive and inaccurate pitch simulator. [Jan 2012, p.122]

  1. This is surely the best game in the series, next to 06 and 08 editions. For what is most important in this game, it provides a near to a logical and chalanging experience - though not without issues - . Training is back from old edition and mixed into a good, easy to understand but chalanging to master aspect of the game. Tactics are same as last year, but what it counts is that they impact the 3D. Budgets are improved and better calculated. These are all important feature that beneficaly impact the game. Also very important is the in general AI is improved and so CPU managed clubs are better coordinated, they improve facilities, stadium, buy or sell player according to logical planning. There are also other small small improvements like community features and others. Well, there is also a downside, as this game is not perfect. In 3D, it happens that players defend badly, without any reason to do so, ball hit the post too often. Nothing changed tactically, so you can`t order a player individually to short pass or to look for a specific target, other than that selected for the whole team. Small things don`t work as intended, as quick formation and you can`t personally calculate the budget any more. Overall this is an enjoying game, challanging enough, is fun to play, has extended database and with community help, is the most accurate football enciclopedia ever. Expand

  3. I was exciting for this game, but it's just a disappointment for me.I was able to play myself in FIFA Man10 and 11 but I can't play myself in FIFAMan.12 and I felt like game continues without my control.I think it's the biggest fault in this game.But it doesn't mean FIFA Man.12 is very bad.It's still better than FM12.
