SEGA releases two versions of Football Manager 2010 demo

Just when you thought you wouldn’t get your chance to tell a group of sweaty soccer players what to do this year, SEGA blows your mind by releasing two versions of the demo for Football Manager 2010 today.  SEGA is offering “vanilla” and “strawberry” versions with varying functions and features. Both are as free as your right to write haikus on Sundays. So basically completely free. I hope I was able to properly convey the fact that they are free through analogy.

You are likely pretty excited if you prefer the idea of managing a team and controlling the business aspects of the game, rather than the intense action of games like FIFA 10, scheduled for release next Tuesday, October 20.

Anywho, click the links below for access to download the demos now, and now on to the features according to SEGA:

There are two different versions of the demo available for PC and MAC, a ‘strawberry’ and ‘vanilla’ version, with both providing half a season of gameplay. The saved games from the demo will be compatible with the full release of the game.

The vanilla version of the demo is English language only, and features the English and Scottish leagues, with no player photos or logos in order to reduce the size of the download.

• Minimal Assets
• English language only
• Quickstarts: England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland

The strawberry version of the demo includes all player pictures and logos, with quickstarts for the world’s biggest leagues, giving players a chance to try out their skills in leagues from multiple countries. Details of languages and leagues are below.

• Full Assets
• In-game languages: English, Danish, Dutch, French, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish
