    Since I know there is a following of SI here. IN the last week they announced that they have settled deals for EHM and FM. EHM will officially be called "NHL Eastside Hockey Manager" and obviously the NHL will be prevalent in the game. This was pretty much a forgone conclusion but the official announcement has now been made.

    On even bigger news, it has been announced at e# that Football Manager has signed a deal with the MLS and the league will be featured again in the game. It also opens the door for the game to be released in the US by Sega and it will be titled "MLS Manager 2005".

    EHM is still on schedule to be released sometime in Summer 2004 FM is scheduled for release, someday (I can't access the boards from work so I can't look it up. Heath little help here?)



    And the demo for OOTP 6 can be found here.:

    I just saw they've added OOTP to the board at SI, but as for the MLS 2005 game I can only say that I would expect it to be released 2 weeks after the demo. SI isnt know to put out a set date and rush a game out. They like better to finish it first, meaning us fans will have to wait patiently. As for EHM, I tought it was supposed to be out in Feb or so? :)

    YEah EHM was originally slated for early 2004 but they changed that to summer. As for release dates go I just meant was ther any indication of a fall 2004 or late 2004 time frame mentioned. I knew ther wouldn't be a specific date announced yet.
