LMA Manager Goes Next-Gen
Codemasters has just the thing to show off next-gen graphics: tables.
It may look like a gussied up spreadsheet program, but Codemasters' LMA Manager series is a perennial hit with gamers. And now fans of the numbers-heavy football management sim can begin the salivation at the prospect of a next-gen instalment in the series.
LMA Football Manager 2006 brings all the roster updates you'd expect from a footie manager game, and the March release date for the PC and Xbox 360 versions means that it will have all the latest transfers updates too.
This next-gen version of the game will include full information for over 1000 teams and makes use of a new management engine to follow your team through 20 full seasons, ensuring hours of stat-crunching fun.
Games play out using a new version of Codemasters' 3D match engine, and after the matches you'll be able to read full match reports for every game played.
LMA Manager 2006 will be out for Xbox 360 and PC in March. The current-gen version will be out for Xbox and PlayStation 2 in October. For more information, visit Codemasters' official game page.
