- Valve talks Steam China, curation and exclusivity - 21 August 2019
Valve, alongside its business partner in China, Perfect World, has given us an update on the progress of Steam China today, after both companies had been silent on the topic for over a year. Eurogamer attended the brief presentation, given by Perfect World CEO Dr. Robert H. Xiao in Shanghai, where a small number of local and international press were told the companies were "one more step closer" to launching Steam China, which will be separate from the international version of Steam. A handful of launch games were revealed, including Dota 2 and Dota Underlords. There were no actual launch dates or broader windows mentioned for Steam China itself, mind, nor a look at how that storefront may shape up or any details on its features, barring the fact it'll support VR, multiplayer games, interesting games with "innovative, creative ideas," and "single-player games with abundant storylines".…

- The Joy Of taking Football Manager far too seriously - 2 April 2019
The latest Football Manager is the most accessible yet. Which means less stressing over incremental tweaks, stats and numbers, and more scope to channel your energy in a completely different direction. This season, play it as it was intended (by me) to be played: with a dash of live-action roleplay. Whether you re a tracksuit coach or a three-piece supervisor, the world s most comprehensive soccer management sim is best enjoyed when taken really, really seriously. (more…)

- Football Manager helped a real life goalkeeper score for his country - on his debut - 22 February 2019
I knew real-life football teams used Football Manager to help scout players. Even managers, such as current Manchester United darling Ole Gunnar Solskj r, have said they've used the famous football management sim to help them out in real-life. But I did not know Football Manager helped a real-life goalkeeper not just play for his country - but score on his debut. This is the story revealed in the latest episode of YouTube series People Make Games, which is the work of ex-Eurogamer video person Chris Bratt. It revolves around keeper Kai Mckenzie-Lyle, who, with a little help from a Football Manager researcher, ended up playing and scoring a last-minute header for his country. Kai's journey alone makes the video worth a watch, but make sure you stick with it for the bonus reveal of Football Manager's disturbing default female manager model. Come on Sports Interactive. Sort it out! Read mo…

- Football Manager 2019 now has a half-season demo - 4 November 2018
If Joe's glowing review wasn't enough to make you pick up Football Manager 2019 , which came out this week, then you can now play half a season for free in a newly-released demo. The demo will let you quick start seasons for a number of different leagues, and your save file will carry over to the full game, should you decide to purchase it.  Joe said it's the best ever in the series, with plenty of new headline features. I'm intrigued by the overhauled tactics system, which sounds like it manages to give you more control of your squad—particularly over what they do when they have the ball—while managing to be more streamlined, and easier to understand. Training has also been given a facelift, and so have player personalities. As Joe found out while managing Bayern Munich, a dressing room revolt is a real possibility.  You can grab the demo on…

- Football Manager 2019 is out now - 2 November 2018
The latest iteration in one of gaming's most intricate sim series' is live today on Steam . Football Manager is consistently good, but we particularly liked this year's edition, giving it a big score of 90 in our Football Manager 2019 review . This entry introduces VAR for maximum controversy, and streamlined tactical customisation options that let you set up your team's play style more easily. The new training options give you more detailed control of your players' progression while extending the dynamics systems introduced last year. As Joe says: "Whereas previous Football Manager games required Claudio Ranieri levels of tinkering to nail down personalised tactics, FM 19's system simplifies and streamlines the process, recommending on-pitch roles along the way, with the option to autofill your best-suited squad once the strategy is in place. I cannot stre…

- Football Manager 2019 review - 30 October 2018
If Manuel Neuer saves this I might keep my job. I mean, it was never a penalty. No one on the pitch thought so, not even the ref and his assistants. But VAR has bitten me on the backside, and now my time at Bayern Munich hangs in the balance. Football Manager 2019's latest matchday feature is ruthless. Video Assisted Referee, or VAR as the system is most commonly known, was introduced to real-world football at this summer's FIFA World Cup in Russia. Designed to aid on-pitch referees with contentious decisions, an off-pitch official watches the game remotely with access to all camera angles. Refs can consult VAR on complicated calls, and big decisions are often overturned. In FM 19, I've learned this the hard way.  And so my digital livelihood lies quite literally in the hands of my goalkeeper.  The ref blows his whistle. Neuer goes left. Sergio Agüero goes…
