Premier Manager 08
PlayStation 2 · 2008
About this game
Premier Manager 08 is a soccer manager where the player is responsible for the athletic and financial success of his team.
Similarly to other games of the sort, there are a lot of details to take care of, e.g. searching for sponsors, stadium expansion, player transfers, lineup and tactics.

But, as usual for English soccer managers, the emphasis is on the athletic aspect.
The player character earns experience depending on his successes and unlocks new abilities with it, like constructing a certain building.
The same goes for the staff members.
The second innovation is a new bar where the player has quick access to his staff members who keep him up to date - this replaces the usual news systems.
The matches themselves use an abstract presentation: the soccer field is shown in a top-down, tactical perspective and the player movements are shown with blue and yellow balls.
The game features about 400 teams in six leagues.
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks Premier Manager 08 for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Premier Manager 08 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS2 release dates back to 2008.
