SEGA Announces Football Manager Live News

Football Manager goes MMO as SEGA and Sports Interactive lift the lid on Football Manager Live...
We suggested that a major announcement was in the pipeline, and it doesn't get much bigger then this... for Sports Interactive fans at least.
Drawing inspiration from his travels around the world, Football Manager Live is the brainchild of Sports Interactive co-founder, Oliver Collyer. Billed as an MMO, Football Manager Live blends the depth and sophistication that we've come to expect from Sports Interactive, with the addiction and socialisation of an MMO.
Building a club up from scratch, Football Manager Live is similar initially to the Fantasy Football games running in the tabloids; only this time, you're in control of everything and not just picking the squad. Traditional seasons and leagues are replaced by an overarching leaderboard system, to ensure that games can be played at any stage with whoever else is online at the time.
Employing the 2D match engine from Football Manager 2007, Football Manager Live also includes advanced transfer options, customisation and much more.
"With Football Manager Live, we're ripping up the script that says how online football management games should work" says Oliver Collyer. "We're creating something that is fun, challenging and sociable."
"Imagine a cross between Football Manager, fantasy sports and auctions sites and you are part of the way to understanding Football Manager Live" commented Miles Jacobson, Managing Director of Sports Interactive. "It's great to be able to announce the game, and we can't wait to see the reaction to the beta when it launches next month."
Football Manager Live isn't scheduled for release until March 2008; however, we've been fortunate to be playing the game for the last week and will bring you extensive first impressions very shortly...
