FM15 is a simulation of real world management, with the player being judged on various factors by the club's AI owners and board.

However for any versions that included a steam key once that key has been activated it cannot be deactivated, though FM10 and FM11 (not sure about FM12?) steam was optional so those versions can still use the disk if the steam key has been used, but any after that I'd stay clear of second hand copies as they are useless unless they clearly state the steam key is unused.FM15 features similar gameplay to that of the Football Manager series.

If you have a 2nd hand copy providing the original installation was removed then you can install it elsewhere. If you have the original then you have the key and can install it.

If its second hand then providing it was uninstalled before sale then its likely you can just enter the key during your Not sure there is any irony. If you have an original pre steam version then it will have the installation key on the manual in the DVD box.
