THE PERFECT MANAGER? Or the most visually disturbing, depending on how you look at it. Football Managerdeveloper Sports Interactive states the perfect football manager would be a mix of Fabio Capello, Harry Redknapp, Alex Ferguson, Ian Holloway, Roberto Mancini and Carlo Ancelotti – it put together this scary mashup image to go with it. Studio director Miles Jacobson described the finished mock-up as “rather freaky”. No shit.
RETAIL ADVISORY BOARD MCV takes soundings from its Retail Advisory Board on the biggest issues in A LINK TO THE BAR
Nintendo showcased its upcoming 3DS adventure The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3Dat London’s Vinopolis earlier this month. Members of the press had the chance to go hands-on with the handheld game, as well as play the Nintendo 64 original. There was a real life Deku Tree at the venue, and more importantly, Zelda-inspired cocktails at the bar. We’ll have an Ocarina of Lime, please.
This week, publishers connect with the masses at MCM Expo, Sports Interactive reveals the perfect (and most hideous) football manager, Nintendo showcases Ocarina of Time on 3DS and a character looking suspiciously like Peter Moore gets the South Park treatment
