This is a preview, right? How can a game this sophisticated and that just came out get reviewed?

FHM came out like the 11th...And we had someone on it who has played multiple versions of it and other text-sims of the same ilk. We also have had code for weeks.

"Much" better is tough to say. It doesn't look much different, that's for sure. It is a great game though, and has a bunch of things that I love and wanted out of 5. Such as historical staff, which unfortunately I didn't get into in the review. I'm gonna end up sinking many, many hours into this game. I think it's between "better" and "much better" haha.

I like the idea of being able to play out the games, as you suggest, even on a very basic level. Something all sports sims should consider at least as an option. This was actually done back when EA offered a soccer sim I think it was FIFA Manager 11 and if you also had FIFA  11 you could play out the games within the management game using basic controls.  If I remember it did not work that well but the idea was there.
