    Developer Cyanide has once again improved its cycling manager with an improved interface and some added management options. Though there are still a lot of improvements to be made in the coming editions.

    Improved compared to the previous editions, Pro Cycling Manager 2012 is a good simulation that has some problems in the multiplayer because of Cyanide's lucrative buy to win system.

    There's certainly a rich simulation in here for those that do so (and those already in the know), but getting there can be tough.

    Pro Cycling Manager is the best cycling game on the market, not for being a great game, but because of the lack of competition. The 2012 edition makes a lot of small changes that actually makes the game worse. Even if the new multiplayer is innovative, I would rather stick with last year's version.

  1. I think if you want to race it is the best cycling game you can find. If you like play as manager I think it is better you play a game as www.cyclingforfun.org that allow you play online controlling a cycling team.
    Pro Cycling Manager IA is better every year, terrains and graphics too. They need to improve manager system to be a better cycling game.
