Helpless Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 My educated guess will be that it will be released on the Sunday Mirror website at midnight of either this saturday or next. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoddle1404 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think the demo will be released latest by next week as it is exactly 2 weeks before the full game release. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I'm expecting midnight of Satuday the 17th, just before the 18th starts. Giving you Sunday to play, like last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twellman24 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 But that would give you 12 days to play the demo, not two weeks like they said... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 But that would give you 12 days to play the demo, not two weeks like they said... They said it would be "about 2 weeks" before release, 12 days fits into that criteria IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip-Off Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I have got to say that if FM 2010 is anything like the dross that is FM2009 then I won't go near it - Managing Arsenal I lost FIVE players in one game and had my entire squad of players injured by the second round of the champions league qualifiers - and not to short term injuries either. This is COMPLETELY unrealistic even with Arsenal's history of injuries. Starting the game again BANG eleven players lost to long term injuries within the first four games and a further seven lost within three games of that. Where is the fun in that ? The game is just a load of poorly researched crap wrapped up in fancy graphics and packaging - I certainly won't waste my money again making these cowboys richer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyIzzyB13 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Soccer is an English word, and would be perfectly acceptable in UK-English, if only for the entertainment value in winding up people who take it far too seriously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricardomac Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Yeah, soccer is an english word. American english. For us, in europe, the people who created football, the football (praise the english people), the sport/entertainment is football. Football is a sport played with your feet, not your feet and your hands, or mostly with your hands. The sport the americans like to call football is just a gay version of our rugby, where men use no protection and don't stop the game evey time a guy falls. This is just my humble oppinion.

Jack Rudd Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I'm inclined to believe the term "soccer" was first coined in Britain, not the USA, and was used to distinguish between Association Football and Rugby Football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty-corkcityfc Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Also Soccer in Ireland. The FACT of the matter is it is called soccer when there is a bigger sport in that country called football.

But yeah, we're the only ones who call it soccer. In Canada is because of the association with the American Standard English. In Australia, they have Aussie Rules Football, which is, strangely, played with their feet (and hands, I know, but is more flow than American Football, and there are a lot more kicks on the ball, it is almost like our football/soccer). And New Zealanders, maybe because of australians. For me, and for most of the english people I know, it is Football. It was football, it is football and it will always be football. And here we even write it in a differente way, we write "futebol". So, it's football forever. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricardomac Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I know, from Association Football. Which is where FIFA got its name too. So? I'm just messing around with americans. And one thing's certain, football is supposed to be played with the foot. It's foot to the ball. The only player who can use the hands is the goalie. In their football, there's only one time they kick the ball, two times, when the match starts, and when they touchdown. That's some kind of handball with a kick. I'm just messing around. I love football, no matter what the name is. Even if they call it sh*t I would love it anyway. Cheers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VyLow Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 The news is, there is no news. As with every single release since FM05, the demo will be released when the game goes gold. That's normally 2 - 3 weeks before the release of the game. The game is released on October 30th. I'm not a betting man, but if I was I'd be expecting the demo somewhere around the middle of October. In the meantime, every time someone asks about the release date of the demo without reading this, god kills one of our QA testers. So please, everyone, think of the testers... and given the amount of bugs that they miss for every single release, would that be that much of a loss?

crouchaldinho Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I love people who rant about the term "Soccer" whilst having absolutely no clue about football history. Quite right. Soccer is the most English word ever! It's about as English as you can get, having come from English public school slang during the Victorian and Edwardian period.

tomtuck01 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I cantg believe there are so many people who are ignorant about the term "soocer", and I can't believe it bothers some of you so much. Interesting little thing here from The Times by journalist Gabriele Marcotti; People who are incensed by the use of "soccer" are not just pedantic, they are ignorant as well.They foolishly believe that soccer is some kind of pernicious Americanism. Wrong. Football and rugby were invented around the same time, in the 19th century. And - guess what? - they both called themselves "football". To distinguish themselves from each other, one was called Rugby Football (that's why we have something called the "Rugby Football Union" even though it has nothing to do with Football) and the other Association Football. The term "soccer" comes from the word "Association" (the "socc" part, if you still don't get it). I should add that, as you all know, both sports were invented in this very country which means there were people running around England some 120 years ago referring to soccer and rugby. That's how long the term has been in use in this very nation. And that's why "soccer" is an English term and it's perfectly legitimate to call it that. One more thing. If soccer is some weirdo Americanism, why doesn't Jeff Stelling present a show called "Football Saturday" on Sky? Or is Jeff Stelling just another ignorant Yank?
