Xbox Game Pass regularly receives an influx of high-quality new games. In some instances, it’s a bit like that one Christmas I got a bag full of pirated PlayStation games. The amount of goodness there was almost too much for my child brain to cope with. I’d flick between games faster than I’d consume Coca Cola (which was pretty rapid), desperate to get a taste of them all. Then I settled on Brian Lara Cricket and was hooked. I played it for months. Football Manager 2023 and Football Manager 2023 Console are the Game Pass equivalent of my pirated copy of Brian Lara Cricket on the PlayStation. The other games might as well not exist.
I have a long, rich history with Football Manager, and Championship Manager before it… and Premier Manager before that – Premier Manager, a game I played when I was so young I was dumb enough to wipe the data from the floppy disks it came on. Thankfully, my Mum was able to convince the shop that they’d been provided blank. Thanks Mum!
Championship Manager was really my gateway into the dark world (I’d often play into the night and not turn the light on) of football management sims. It was the precursor to Football Manager, and I played it for the first time at a friend of the family’s house. My parents were round there doing what parents do (buffets, talking), so my brother and I were upstairs on the computer. Time flew by as we tinkered with formations and attempted to sign players Tottenham were never going to be able to afford.
