Sexy fussball!!

April 10, 2008

The game for young and old alike. Can be played with perfect precision, in a drunken slurr of randomness or in a double team style playoff. This is probably the most versatile of retro games ever and its getting a fancy remake.

I used to play this almost everyday when I lived in Holland. The dutch are mad for it which is not surprising that the designers are dutch…

“The designers – both of which are based in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, will show the new table at the Milan Design Week”

Would love one of these in the studio/flat!

Guitar Hero vs Vinyl Hero

March 28, 2008

After a good few hours crying with laughter playing guitar hero the other day I can safely say this game has my vote.

I’ve had an idea of creating a Vinyl version called…. drum rolllllllllll (excuse pun) – Scratch hero!! It has been done before mind with the playstation and arcade games: ‘beatmania’.

How about doing it with a real turntable tho?? Surely the technology is there to create such a game. Using the same GUI as guitar hero for example but have a real turntable/mixer as the interface ?

It could even be stretched to the limits by having a mixing section of the game using different turntabalist techniques to have as different levels of the game e.g. blending, cuting, using the gains, beatmatching etc…

Maybe im jumping on the bandwagon slightly here but it’s definetely food for me thoughts :)
