Following in the footsteps of Football Manager 2008, Sports Interactive has revealed the next installment to be released for the PSP, PC, and Mac OS X platforms. Football Manager 2009 (and its accompanying Football Manager Handheld 2009 for the PSP) will be arriving on November 14. Read more for details and an in-depth video walkthrough with the devs.

Sega Europe Ltd. just recently announced the development of sports simulation title for the PlayStation Portable Football Manager Handheld 2008. Staying true to the franchise, we just got word that Sega will also be coming up with a PC version of the game, this time to be called Football Manager 2008.

This particular iteration is being developed by Sports Interactive, studio director Miles Jacobson had this to say, "with dozens of new small features and larger things like a complete revamp of international management and the new match flow system, we're really looking forward to seeing the reaction from people when they get to play it on release."

Football Manager 2008 will be released before this year's Christmas. To help you get familiar with the game, we listed down its new features and hosted the newly-released demo just so you will know if it suites your taste.

Football Manager 2008 features:

• Match Flow: Match flow brings more atmosphere to match-days with match previews, team talks, opposition player instructions, the match itself, half time and post match. These now seamlessly follow on from one another, with no more pausing to make tactical changes, and a mini-radar pitch whilst making those tactical changes to keep you in touch with what's going on in the match.
• International Management: Media improvements, international retirements, player interaction, international scouting, improved pool selection, captain selection and a separation of international and club morale for players
• Easier to Use: A much cleaner skin, a brand new advisor system to help players through various areas of the game. A new notes and notebook system, better button positioning for simpler navigation and an updated tutorial and manual
• Confidence: Players can now easily tell what the board and supporters think about their performance in the game through the new confidence section. This gives players feedback not just on their current progress in competitions, but also their financial management and signings
• Transfer Center: A new way of managing all current transfer and loan bids for a players club, both incoming and outgoing, making it easier to compare bids and reject or accept them
