Football Manager Handheld 2008 In Time For Christmas News

The PSP Football Manager game remains in good stead this year with Football Manager Handheld 2008 allocated to its usual Christmas period release date.

Details of improvements for this year's title are thin on the ground at the moment. There will be a new skin and lay-out making the game more streamlined (yawn). A more significant change, however, is the inclusion of a reserve team for this year's version. This will allow for pocket managers to build larger teams and develop young'ens from the B team - nice. Gamers can also expect an improved match engine.

"Once again, Football Manager Handheld 2008 raises the bar for handheld management games, with the team squeezing in as many feature requests from the community as were possible." commented Miles Jacobson, Studio Director of Sports Interactive. "When we first started on the quest for a real pick up and play football management game, we didn't even believe ourselves that the game would be able to have the depth that is does, whilst still being so much fun to play in bite size chunks, or on long journeys and holidays."
