What Game Developers Hate About Videogame Reviewers

This is an interesting article that you all might want to check out. Having been a part of both development and the "press" I have a few issues with some of the comments, but I'll leave you to make up your own mind on the subject. Do you agree or disagree with either side? Why?

Everybody's Tennis

I don't know how many of you know this but I'm a huge fan of the Hot Shots/Minna No Golf series. I have played every version to death and never seem to get bored of it. Clap Hanz has done an amazing job taking over the reins from Camelot (who did the first game) and even surpassed what their counterparts have been able to do with the Mario Golf titles. So, it shouldn't be much of a surprise that Clap Hanz would eventually branch off into other sports... And now it has.

Taking on the the likes of Mario Tennis and Virtua Tennis, the studio that made console-based golf so addictive is now readying Minna no Tennis for a September 14th release in Japan. No word on a U.S. version yet, but I bet it makes it here by Christmas. And I'll be one of the first people in line to buy it.

Here's a trailer of the game if you're interested: http://www.minteni.net/
