From the developers of the Championship Manager series comes a fully functional and time limited (beta) demo of Football Manager 2005.
The Football Manager 2005 beta demo was created on September 2nd, since that time a number of enhancements and fixes have been made to the game. The idea of the beta demo is to give people a taster of the game and some feedback on the general playability of the product. We also use it to help diagnose any problems that people have with hardware, drivers and other programs prior to the release of the game to ensure the final product will run as smoothly as possible.
Football Manager 2005 will be released by SEGA in Europe, for PC and Mac, on November 5th 2004.
