backpackant Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Things I've done: Throw a week-long sickie when a new edition/patch is released. Get confused about why Elano is playing for Man City on Sky Sports. Start talking "PA" with your mates when a team like Birmingham signs someone like Zarate. You get excited when you team is linked with a player like Stancu or Breno. Spend £429 on a new Dual 2 Core laptop because you're sick of spending half an hour to process international weeks. and finally... You miss a meeting because you're thinking up addictiveness signs on FM Forums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzie MUFC Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 This is how addicted I am: At the moment, I'm suffering from some sort of grogular cold, making me very dizzy and therefore bed-bound. I have a PSP with a WiFi to PC program on it, where I can use the PSP as a wireless gamepad or mouse. As I speak, I am (groggily) setting up said program on my PC which has FM08 installed on it and my current long term save and I'm going to try and play it from my bed. Hopefully there will be a way of me being able to use some sort of magnifying glass program too because I can't see the text from the other side of the room...
