Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 Interview
01:30 AM - May 13, 2008. Posted by hdaniel1. Written by Daniel Hee
On Peter Moore's Official Blog site, he has posted a exclusive interview with Mike Taramykin, Executive Producer of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09.

Quote:
Peter Moore: "Sounds like an interesting concept with Tiger’s coach, Hank Haney, playing a big role in this year’s game. Can you tell me a little more about what role he plays?"

Mike Taramykin: "A big part of this year’s game is that the experience changes based on an individual player’s performance. We have added a new dynamic attribute system that adjusts based on how you play, a club tuner feature that allows players to customize every club in their bag, and custom training drills are based on actual shots that players made on the course."

GamingExcellence has posted their preview of Deca Sports.

Quote:
"Each of the sports themselves had enough material to make them interesting; there was actually more complexity in the input than just blindly swinging or flipping the Wii-mote madly around. Badminton (and volleyball) had you waiting for the right moment to smash the birdie/ball to the other side of the net; motor-biking required balancing after flying off leaps, lest you slow down when you hit the ground; and figure skating required following a path set before you and timing your triple camel axels and such at the right time."

HD's Hot Links After Dark (5/12/08)
01:26 AM - May 13, 2008. Posted by hdaniel1. Written by Daniel Hee

I played a ton of GTA IV over the weekend. I find it absolutely hilarious when Nico is totally wasted when he steps out of the bar. I find it kind of funny when you go on a date to the bar, that Nico is wasted and the date is not. It makes it like his date drank him under the table!
  • QOTN: Have you ever been totally wasted at a bar? (Sorry, I just have to ask this question!)

Shawn Drotar over at 5W-G has posted a articled called Top Spin 3: Aiming High.

Quote:
"DeLuca noted that downloadable content was in the offing for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions, including more “legends” and new equipment. Due to a pre-existing marketing agreement with Sony, Nadal is exclusive to the PS3 version, but DeLuca was quick to answer when asked if there were any visual differences between the two systems’ versions."
