There is a big gap in the market for a console management sim like football manager, is it time to make a new LMA game or atleast release a update? classic game and I actually preferred it to football manager the match engine is smoother and theres less farting about with the boring stuff.

The management side to FIFA probably killed it off more than anything.
Probably, but FIFA manager is on the PC
Imagine the game is going on on your TV while on the Vita screen is a bunch of stats, showing which players and playing well, where your best attacking chances have been, which players are getting fatigued
You could then be able to make changes on the fly and see how effective they are
Miles behind, and always has been.
The match engine on LMA is much better then anything Football Manager serves up now. And it's more simple to use none of the boring stuff.
Not what I meant. I was meaning the management options in regular FIFA. When I got it I never thought it was much good but apparently it got better. I've not bought FIFA for a good few years, though.
And before LMA there was Premier Manager. Some folk will always prefer the more basic option. It's one reason we have FM Classic.
Maybe it was the simplicity, i could have bunch of mates round and play a few season in a day on LMA and have a laugh
With Football manager you have to put thought into every little decision, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, its just not every one will want that level on detail
Hence FM Classic. I could see SI doing a console version of that in the future...
Depending on the price i may look into FM Classic 2014 on the Vita, as its just the classic mode and not the full game i wouldn't be willing to pay that much
RRP is £29.99 which I think is a bit steep for what is basically a rebrand of FM Handheld, maybe with a few additional bits. Handheld is about a fiver on Android...
Then i shall not be buying, the most i would pay is £9.99
i had 4 different formations with newcastle over 7 years ,but i was always midtable
then i amalgamated best bits of all 4 formations into 1 and i won the league! that makes me smile!!!!
As said above - an update to LMA 2007 would be nice. I did contact Codemasters ages ago about this, or whether they'd release the source so the online community could produce an update but had no response.
There were rumours of an LMA 2014 doing the rounds a while back. But last year it was LMA 2013 rumours, and 2012 before that etc.
