Championship Manager: Season 97/98

Championship Manager 97/98 is a football management computer game in the Championship Manager series, based on the Championship Manager 2 game engine. It was developed by Sports Interactive and released in October 1997 as the final game in the second generation of CM games, exclusively for the PC.

[title] Gameplay

The gameplay in CM97/98 remained very similar to other games based on CM2, but this installment provided far more than just a database update. It was a clear indication of Sports Interactive’s intent for the franchise’s future in two ways: the inclusion of a database editor with Championship Manager: Season 97/98 demonstrated that SI was actively encouraging users to modify and customize Championship Manager: Season 97/98, and the inclusion of nine playable leagues from across Europe was a clear indication of things to come in terms of the game’s growing depth and global scope.

The number of playable nations/league systems in CM97/98 was three times that of the previous version. It was also the first time that players could run more than one league at the same time (up to three in this edition). The English, Spanish, and Italian leagues, for example, would all be simulated, and players would be able to manage a club in any of these countries and move between them. It also allowed the user to view results and league tables in the selected leagues, which added to the realism. It was also the first time in the series that the Portuguese league system was playable. Aside from the new playable leagues, bug fixes, and updated player data, Championship Manager: Season 97/98 also gained new features. Club squads could now have 32 players (two more than in the previous version), the Champions League and UEFA Cup formats were changed to reflect their real-life counterparts, and there was more control over tactics (including set-piece taker selection), and international under-21 matches were fully simulated.
