Football Manager 'still not where we want it to be,' says SI boss

Football Manager 2013 is the fastest selling game in the series to date, says developer Sports Interactive - but boss Miles Jacobson has suggested the studio's not ready to rest on its laurels.

"In a year where the market is down almost everywhere, we're significantly up, double digit up on a global level," said Jacobson.
"FM Handheld on iOS is also double digit up, over half a million units sold globally. Even the PSP game did better than we expected. For a studio that's in its 21st year now, to still see record sales is something we are really proud of."
Despite the strong performance and overly positive reviews, Jacobson admitted he won't be completely satisfied until the series achieves an even stronger critical reception.
"FM13 was our highest reviewed game for some time - 87 on Metacritic - but it's still not where we want to be, which is 90," he told MCV.
"There's no reason why a triple-A PC title, which we are, shouldn't be competing with a triple-A console title."
