#21273 Making a transfer is miracle...
Boone
Take Lukas Podolski for example, Arsenal bought him for what is believed to be around £10mill this season, Yet that sort of deal for that sort of player in that sort of team is pretty much impossible on Football Manager. I can't remember actually trying to purchase him on FM12, however I would make a wager that getting him would set you back a fair few pennies. The same applies for FM13.
I'm not saying that inflated fee's don't happen, as is seen in the Premier League, transfer window after transfer window when the next PL club wants to spend all their money on Darren Bent, or whoever is having a good season for the first time in their career. What I am saying though is that issues with valuations and the amount that the player can actually be bought for, have existed at many levels of the game, wonderkids or not for a while now.

Lewandowski for example will set you back around £20mill, yet I reckon in the real world your are probably looking at the £10-£15mill mark. Which makes building a squad difficult, because say you have a £30mill budget your looking at a maximum of one big signing and having some change left over.
Then again you do see examples in the real world where Andy Carroll is bought for £30mill...

Did they get bought by some oligarch or is Football Manager having one of those moments where all logic abandons the game again?

Saints Row in that sense was in a way a kind of reminder of the old days when carriages propelled by men in gimp costumes would explode and scenes where you freefall for about 10minutes whilst jumping through crashing planes and shit.
Hopefully GTA V brings back some of that wacky stuff in the full game, keep some of the sophistication for the general storyline sure, but also make it so that some mental middle-eastern millionaire is occasionally telling me to do crazy stuff whilst blasting missiles around me in a golden helicopter.

Yeah, in which case you'd just drag her off after you'd stopped the bus, not taking away from the epicness of the uppercut and yeah she deserved it. Which is why it sucked she didn't stay down.
It's not about equal rights or anything, its basic man code that you never hit a woman unless its a whole last resort to stop everyone from dying kinda thing.

If she had a gun, ok thats a matter of self-preservation. But for talking shit or doing something stupid. Never.

Didn't quite see I was joking there, did you?
