On the subject of EA, we gleefully mock them for hoodwinking the public by selling them the same game every six months, yet let's not forget that CM: Season 00/01 is actually a seasonal update, as the name might suggest. An unruly element has inevitably questioned why they should buy this when it's essentially the same game as last year. The simple answer is that they don't have to, they can simply sit at home counting their 20 quid over and over again. However, in not buying it, they would be missing out on a great deal. Because the game mirrors actual football so closely, it's essential to update it if a realistic representation of the modern game is to be maintained. These days, a week is a long time in football, so a year is almost harking back to a more innocent age. Transfer fees have continued to spiral, rule changes have been made and new competitions have been instigated, not to mention the thousands of changes in personnel. As well as covering all these eventualities, new gameplay elements have also been introduced, as despite their total dominance of the market, the Collyer brothers are showing no signs of complacency. Unlike EA's curious ploy of sometimes releasing worse versions of FIFA, the trend with Championship Manager is to continually improve it. As such, this stands accused of being the best version yet. Improvements include increased media involvement, with the intrusion of the press enabling you to build a better picture of players' abilities. Backroom staff can now also be consulted over a player's worth, helping you to decide whether to give him a new contract or show him the door. And in a further reflection of real-life antics, managers can approach the FA to request the postponement of fixtures and even complain about the referee. More functional stuff includes the advent of a live league table, enabling you to chart your team's position minute by minute, a vital aid in a relegation battle, as this reviewer knows only too well. And if you're not already satisfied with the incredible amount of statistics, player analysis can now be aided with information about shots on target and pass completion ratios.
CM 00/01 comes with a game editor that you can use to update your favourite team rosters, to create some "fantasy" teams to play with, or to give yourself a foot-up with some extra cash in the bank for the season ahead. The editor is a separate program, but is very easy to use. It also gives you an insight into players' hidden stats, as well as some of the more esoteric properties that are recorded, including a player's favourite and most disliked teams and his favourite manager, and a club's most favoured and disliked staff (which is useful, for example, to stop Exeter's manager taking over at Plymouth!). Chances are there will be many downloads available off the Internet before long, but having the power to edit the database yourself is always going to be handy.
