kingjericho Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 what's different in that edition? i only discovered that there was an arsenal edition the very day after i bought the normal edition Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackemforever Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 What the hell is the difference? *EDIT* Just found it. Wow, you get a new skin and pictures of the arsenal players for only an extra £10. *For the stupid people on this forum I should point out that the above sentence was sarcastic* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yid Army Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Plus, you can download the pictures/logos/kits online for use in the normal game for free, and the skin is a fair bet aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunner86 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Yeah, but I got mine on release for the same price as HMV were selling the normal edition (£30) and sure you don't get much extra but it's what's known as showing support for your club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Op Telic Was BLANK Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 By the way if anyone here is in advertising or marketing... kill yourself. No, no, no it's just a little thought. I'm just trying to plant seeds. Maybe one day, they'll take root - I don't know. You try, you do what you can. Kill yourself. Seriously though, if you are, do. Aaah, no really, there's no rationalisation for what you do and you are Satan's little helpers. Okay - kill yourself - seriously. You are the ruiner of all things good, seriously. No this is not a joke, you're going, "there's going to be a joke coming," there's no ****ing joke coming. You are Satan's spawn filling the world with bile and garbage. You are ****ed and you are ****ing us. Kill yourself. It's the only way to save your ****ing soul, kill yourself. Bill Hicks....genius. Some people will buy any old tat and get mugged by the Marketing people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Complete Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 There is absolutly no difference apart from the Arsenal graphics. I am a massive gooner fan but as people say above, you can get it cheaper in other shops. No way I am paying £10 more when I can download the Arsenal graphics from other sites.

DDRickyDD@hotmail.com Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 It's exactly the same as the original only when a decision goes your way or one of your players is caught cheating you can choose the option "I didn't see it" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baker.simon Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 What a waste of money,surely Arsenal fans don't just manage Arsenal do theyBoring No, It's exactly the same game as the one you get in normal shops. It just has an Arsenal cover on the box, an Arsenal facepack and badges, and an Arsenal skin. All that for just £10 extra............... or £17 for the normal bog standard game + 5 minutes downloading and applying the graphics. Mugged Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Submerge Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I brought it, patched to 10.1, then to 10.2, lost all options to use the Arsenal skin. Money well spent there then! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

avfc82 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Does the extra money you pay for it go towards paying off the Emirates Stadium? Also do you get any extra Arsene Whinger options in the press conference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edle Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Yeah, but I got mine on release for the same price as HMV were selling the normal edition (£30) and sure you don't get much extra but it's what's known as showing support for your club Its called buying a gimmick.

Wee Aja Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Really don't see the point in buying the Arsenal addition of the game when you could have all those 'extras' for no extra cost. Unless of course you bought the game at the same price, even then you could have a Man Yoo edition, a Lyon, Liverpool, Olympiacos edition etc etc.. switch between them as the mood takes you. All you need is a good skin man and you're home free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
atonement Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 i'm going to go one step further and say i will no longer be buying a new copy of football manager for me, its unplayable until the 3rd patch comes out so i'll just wait a few months and pick it up 2nd hand on the cheap looks to be going for about £16 on ebay - bargain love a bit of bill hicks on the forum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnefc22 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 So you'd rather have a plain mug, then a mug with your clubs crest on for the same price? Yeah but you didn't pay the same price You payed more for the crest on your copy of the game, when you could have had the 'plain' edition for less, which is what everyone is pointing out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner86 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Yeah but you didn't pay the same price You payed more for the crest on your copy of the game, when you could have had the 'plain' edition for less, which is what everyone is pointing out I had 3 options... By it in a shop (HMV is the easiest for me to get to) for £30 Buy it from Steam for £30 Or by it from Arsenal for £30 and have it delivered on release day... Net loss = £0 At the end of the day it's my money anyway, and I chose to buy the Arsenal edition because I'm an Arsenal fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR866Gunner Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I was temted by this but you always end up payin through the nose at the arsenal shop, by the time its gets cheaper the original is a decent price or you get the bug and just have to have it!

santy001 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Up until FM09, you could also say the normal version of FM was known as the 'Arsenal version' (This is a tongue in cheek remark) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deisler26 Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I went to the Emirates on release day after a night shift to buy a copy, but they said they wouldn't be stocking it for at least a week. So I bought a normal copy because I couldn't wait :o Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
