IGN US scores Football Manager '09 2/10, UK scores 9.1/10

Maxconsole reports: "Talk about reviewer discrepancies. IGN US has posted up a review on Football Manager 2008 and awarded it a pathetically low score of 2/10, while IGN UK has awarded the same game a 9.1/10. Amusingly, the US reviewer seems to have no clue that Football Manager is a management simulation and concludes his review by stating "I couldn't imagine why anybody would prefer Worldwide Soccer Manager to FIFA 09 or Pro Evolution Soccer 2009." Err, hello, you have to compare LIKE for LIKE, the reviewer seems to think that Football Manager is actually supposed to be a soccer simulation, blasting it for its lack of "traditional gameplay to speak of."
