Total Club Manager 2004 - My First Game
Posté : 04 mars 2019 22:53
Hello everybody!
I cannot let pass this moment without sharing it with you. 2019 marks 15 years since I started playing FIFA Manager series, which at that moment was named Total Club Manager. It was Total Club Manager 2004 and, to my knowledge, the first game from the series available in Romania. A friend from university introduced me to the game and I was amazed. I couldn't believe that someone has created a game where you could be the manager, where you could control the club's life and still enjoy the magic of FIFA gameplay. I first played with Steaua Bucharest for hours and hours on my friend's computer (an AMD I believe) because I didn't own one, and even managed to win some trophies. Then I played with National Bucharest, an important club in those years, now just a semi-pro team in lower leagues.
The one issue I had with TCM 2004 was the constant crash at the end of the competitive year (June 30).
The next year I bought a computer just to be able to play the game. In fact the FIFA Manager series determined to buy my first computer and to get my first job (I was depressed because of the game and I tried to escape from it). Since then, I had some jobs, I got married and I played the game (TCM 2005, FIFA 06, 07, 08, some 09, a little more 10, almost none 11, some 12, more 13 and none 14). Until I discovered this community and FIFA Manager 18.
In the end, because Youtube suggested me today Powerplant - "Yellow Card" and because 15 years ago I played for the first time TCM 2004, I share some screenshots from the game.
I have installed TCM 2004 on a Windows XP virtual machine and I return to it from time to time. It makes me feel young again.
