PUNISHMENT GAME- Season at Derby County (review of Football Manager 2019(PC)

Yes, as you c an tell, SpartanCommander messed up rather badly. This time he has to review the latest  entry in the highly successful Football Manager series. Can Kenzie bring this team to success, or relegation, Let's find out.


Have you ever poked fun at one of your buddies too much. I have.

I have just upgraded to  an i7 3770k. When i told him, I wound him up with the usual PC Gaming jokes. For example.(My exact words!)

   As you can probably tell, it boiled down to an epic showdown on Gears 5. Unfortunately, I lost

To make matters worse the  the processor I bought had a BLOWN transistor. Note to self: One does not simply poke the bear and-

especially from CEX!

 As a BSc Graduate, I should've known better!

Anyway, let's get into it!

The Football Manager series has been the cornerstone of sport/simulation games.

You take up the role as the manager of your favourite football/Soccer team as you buy and sell players, manage your team's tactics, formation, substitutions, finances. You get the picture,

So you can  manage your favourite team like   the mighty West Ham boys and lead them to glory, promotion, even silverware! Or manage your least favourite team ,Like Chelsea sell it's best player and lead them to relegation and ruin. Or the ultimate challenge-take control of a poor -performing, third division team, turn the club's misfortunes, get them promoted to the Premier League, even win it!


The accessibility scores are as follows:

Visibility 9.5
During matches when a player has possession his name will pop up above his head. The only issue is you can't change the colour of the tops your team is wearing. which is not that important. If you support that team, at least you should be able to recognise which colour of tops they are wearing during matches!


Audibility 10
This game has no spoken dialogue, even commentary on the match is text based, so you should be able to play this game with no issues

Mobility 10
This game is controlled by the mouse only A controller option would be pointless as you can't control players directly, like FIFA during matches. So you should be fine with this game.

Gameplay 8
This game is a perfect time killer, like when you are stuck in a long train, and is sitting there in your seat, bored with nothing to do. This can be played on most laptops. This game is highly addictive,  so you'd still be playing long after the season ends! But it does get boring and tedious after a while, so everything in moderation. After all, it would be embarrassing to miss your stop! 

In summary, Football Manager is a pretty decent game. It's a game that takes seconds to learn, yet years to master. This game has the largest Football Database to give you that feel of realism. Matter of fact, this is the closest thing you'll ever get to the real thing.

So if you hear a person  shouting "SACK THE MANAGER! I'D DO A BETTER JOB MYSELF!" make him to play this game top call him out. With this game  on Game Pass, there's no excuse to give this a try if you  are a subscriber.


OVERALL SCORE 93.75%


See you guys in the next review
