A few questions if anyone can help me out (and I'm sure they've been asked a thousand times in other threads and I apologize but)
Front Office Football
Does anyone know if there will be an all new version coming out this fall? I own a past version of the game (2001 or 2002) and am looking to upgrade, but don't really want to plunk down a bunch of cash for the current version if a new one will be along in a few months.
EHM 2005
What has Riz said regarding the North American release? I know that the NA release is supposed to have some major changes. For those purchasing the Digital Download, will it just be a patch or an all new download or what, and if so will that encompass an extra cost?
Tournament Dreams
Just looking to get a comparison between Tournament Dreams and Fast Break College Basketball. Has anyone played both and have a preference. I played Arlie Rahn's Coaching A Dynasty to death, so I figure I will love Tournament Dreams but I was just looking to get some insight.
Thanks for any help.

The update will be sent via the form of a patch. A large patch most likely. There is no extra charge. If you already bought the game the "NA update" is free. There was some talk of charging a nominal fee, but that never took off. If you don't have the game, and you but it post-NA update, the game will cost the same amount as it did before.
Buy this game if you haven't.

Most people here, it seems, are thinking that the next game will *not* be a new version of FOF, but will be TCY2. That being said, FOF2004 is a very good game, and definitely is a huge upgrade from FOF2001/2002, and is probably worth the $29.95 even if a new version comes out in the next few months.

Thanks for any help.I played CAD to death, too, but I greatly prefer FBCB to TDCB, as do the vast majority of people who have played both. FBCB is a very, very, very good game.

FOF-no word from Jim but that doesn't mean nothing is coming usually no word till late in the process usually.
EHM2005-this game i am playing more than any other right now and have been for serveral weeks
TDCB-I like the game FBCB has alot of fans here and is very good but neither game really held my interest. If i could only have one i would probally go with FBCB but it isn't an easy choice for me.

FBCB is the best sim that I own. Both are showing some age I think but FBCB is still a very solid college basketball sim. It's clearly the way to go if you care about online league play at all ;)
I agree about FBCB being the better of the two. Does anyone know what Heavyreign is working on next?
