Pro Cycling Season 2008 is like a curious mix between Championship Manager and G1 Jockey. However, unlike Championship Manager, you don’t really know or care much about the cyclists in the same way you do about footballers, and your input into the race is less involving than any horse racing game. That said, like any management title, there is always satisfaction getting a team you have created to the top, but the subject matter can be quite a hurdle for many to overcome. You’d have to really love the Tour de France to get involved with this.
