The same procedure as every year – Pro Cycling Manager 2008 offers identical features to last year including only some small changes. Tough managing your own cycling team and win the Tour de France might be fun at first, this changes after having played through one season.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)
To achieve the title “Best cycling manager game” is quite easy with lack of any competition but nevertheless Pro Cycling Manager 2008 is quite a good game. Owners of previous version will be disappointed by the minimum-to-none changes since last year. [Aug 2008]

In the end, PCM will be of little interest to most people. It has a few reasonable, sometimes even interesting ideas, but manages to execute very few to the level of similar games on the market. [Oct 2008, p.65]

Mediocre management and terrible racing means it's average at best. [Issue#10, p.58]

The fact is, you must bring so much effort to the PCM equation - a simple interest in bikes won't do - that it's hard to think of it as a game. It's hard to think of it at all. [Sept 2008, p.95]

If you're so deep into professional cycling that you'd want to play a game where you navigate sterile menus and tell other people how to ride bikes, then there may be some small morsels of enjoyment to be found here, provided you accept that your own enthusiasm will be picking up the slack for a drab and technically sloppy game.

It's as much fun as cycling up the wrong side of the M5. [Sept 2008, p.115]
