Championship Manager 2007 is a football manager simulation video game developed by Beautiful Game Studios and published by Eidos Interactive. It was released for Microsoft Windows on October 13, 2006, and for PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable and Xbox 360 on March 16, 2007. It was brought to Mac OS X on May 16, 2007 by Virtual Programming.
Once that's done, and you've decided on a team, you'll be responsible for pretty much every decision you can think of that a football manager in real life would make. First of all, you'll need to think carefully about the players at your disposal and whether you want to mould a team around a certain formation, or vice versa. It's important, especially at lower-level clubs, to spend some time looking at the players' statistics--of which there are many--to see who might perform well in any given position.

One of the major additions for CM 2007 is the licensing of ProZone technology, which is an extremely powerful tool used by real-life managers to assess the performance of players in a match. It tracks the movements of the football and players on both teams and can, therefore, break down a match into its component parts. Once you've played a game, you can view it in the ProZone tool and go into a great level of depth in assessing what went right, or wrong, with your team's performance.
In terms of the long game, CM 2007 has a massive amount to offer. With the sheer number of teams you can control, as well as the option of international management, the game is almost infinitely replayable during the course of a real-life year. Manager contracts are important in the game, and your success--or lack thereof--will often dictate the path your manager takes through the world of football. Regardless of how well you do, there's always something else to achieve or a new challenge to be found elsewhere, and that's one of the delights you'll find in this kind of game.
Certainly the feature list of Champ lags behind FM's - there are no feeder clubs, for instance, and under-developed media and manager interaction and, in this PS2 version, no ProZone post-match analysis tool to please the laptop brigade.
Oh God - have we kicked it? We certainly didn't mean to. Champ Man is a solid managerial offering that stands alone as a well-researched and reasonably engaging management game. It compares favourably with the more in-depth PC version, but at this rate it'll never be a FM-beater - which matters not if you only have a PS2 and your dad monopolises the home PC to access specialist websites...
