Name, some verbage, and what the computer "defaults" to when setting up a league. Besides that, nothing.

I believe that WWSM also has the 2 new teams in the MLS although i have FM so can't verify that.

Nope. I think they have like a "shell" for them, but they are not in the MLS nor added later.

They're exactly the same games - only difference is that WWSM has an American translation in it ...

HAHAHAHAH!!!

Hey, I gotta have an outlet where I share my fun with this game

Seriously though, when I started reporting my dealings with Luton, I mostly wanted to convey what's really cool about the game, the things that maybe people that didn't have the game didn't know about. If you get the feeling this game could be fun by reading them dynasties, wow, great. Make sure you try the demo first though Now go get it, say bye bye to your friends and have fun with it

FM

Demo

SI has the BEST demo out there for any PC games maker. It really allows you to find out what the game is all about. I wish more PC games creators would release such in depth demos.

Gamestop.com, that's where I got it from.

http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product%5Fid=646041

The code "FREESHIPALL" will give you free USA Value shipping (5-10 days... closer to the 5 for me).

edit: That makes it $40 total.

Out of curiosity, can some of y'all who have WWSM give me an idea of what some of these translation changes are? I'm having similar fears to VforPrez (that the changes would bug me) that I'm not certain about snagging WWSM instead (which I'd like to, given the price difference).
