online football games

In a press conference in early September, the makers of the Football
Manager series revealed a few new features in Football Manager 2013.
These included the addition of a director of football, being able to
give certain roles to other staff that managers would have to do themselves
in previous games, taxes, a new way of making loan deals and the addition
of Classic Mode where players could go through one season in eight hours without having to customise training or deal with team talk. On 28 September 2012,
the release date was announced as 2 November 2012. If the game is pre-ordered, a beta version of the game will be available two weeks prior to the 2 November,
with any saved data being able to be transferred to the release version.
New national team was included, South Sudan national football team.
If you’re hankering after some FIFA/ISS-style 3D footie thrills, then this could
well be the best online offering. Although you can play it within your browser,
you do need to install a special plug-in first, which limits its availability to
computers that you have administrator privileges on. That aside, it does give you
the chance to compete against other online players from all over the world and compete
in tournaments with them. While the graphics don’t quite measure up to
the latest versions of FIFA, they’re pretty amazing for an online game, and the
animation is silky smooth to boot. The controls are fairly simplistic, but this
only serves to make the game more accessible and immediate, which is just what
you want from an online game.
Back in the days when computers struggled to do smooth, semi-realistic 3D graphics,
all computer football games took place across two dimensions. Some say it was
better this way – less confusing, easier to be accurate – and you can judge for
yourself by playing this free online version of the classic Sensible Soccer.
Of all the 2D footie sims released in the 1990s, Sensible Soccer was widely
considered to be the best, combining accurate, fast-moving gameplay with simple yet
effective graphics. Although some might scoff at the blocky visuals and tiny
players, this game remains one of the most immediate and fun football games ever
created. Whether you’re on a nostalgia trip or you’re just curious, it’s well worth
giving this game a few minutes (or hours!) of your time.
This Facebook-based football management game is endorsed by no less than the
‘Special One’ himself, Jose Mourinho. It’s quite detailed for an online management
game, allowing you to take control of all aspects of the club, including training
regimes, finance, tactics, and of course the buying and selling of players.
The match engine is not bad – certainly more detailed than Soccer Manager – but
the learning curve with this game is a little steeper. It’s well worth it though,
as over 9 million players can testify, and the ability to compete against your
Facebook friends adds a little bit of spice, and a lot of fun, to proceedings.
The daddy of online football manager games, the ever-popular Soccer Manager
(or SM as it’s known to its friends) allows you to compete against players
from a vast worldwide network. The players are based on real players, with
their ratings, which determine how well they are likely to play, being determined
by their real-world performances. While there are plenty of tactical options,
it’s not clear how much of a difference this makes to the outcome, as the match
engine isn’t anywhere near as detailed as the equivalent on Sega’s Football
Manager for example. The real fun is to be found identifying young players
that are likely to see ratings increases, and buying them at a snip before they
get upgraded. In some ways, it’s a bit more like stock market speculation with
real footballers than a traditional management game, and the competition for the
best young players can be intense in the more populated leagues, but there is
plenty of help on the forum to assist you in scouting out the next big things.
