Part 2 of the NCAA Football 2004 interview

[Kodos]

Part 2 (http://www.football-gaming.com/tiburonncaa02.shtml)

Yeah, it's the guy who did the really informal interview with Jeff Luhr, but there are some interesting tidbits in there. For instance, you can enter the names for guys on your team and they will show up for you online (but not for you opponent.)

[KWhit]

This is one of the worst interviews I have ever read. Part of me enjoyed it because I am so anxious for the game, but man is it written badly!


Some bits and pieces:


FBG: Can you show us that old school stuff?
Luhr: Oh yea. Oh yea!
FBG: Yea, that stuff is awesome looking.

....................


Luhr: I'll show you a couple more examples of these teams, 60's and 70's. There are a lot of great players too. I mean, I know we don't have them named in the game but there are a lot of great old players, all the years Bo Jackson....
FBG: Oh yea, I bet. Open it up, I'm tellin' ya, guys will throw down on all that. Archie Griffin, all the All-time college teams too.

...................


Luhr: Yea. You can like punt the ball into the crowd, dunk it over the goalpost, do the Heisman pose.
FBG: Yea the Heisman, that's how they did the old football card photos.
Luhr: Yep and the Quarterbacks were always posed like this. (We swap poses old school football photo and card poses.)
Luhr and FBG: (Laughter)

......................


FBG: Soo....how long have you been working on this game for? California or no?
Luhr: I was out in Southern Cal a couple years. I started back on NCAA 98', 99' back on the PSX.
FBG: You think this game will ever come back to the PC or the low sales, no hu?
Luhr: I don't know. I can't say never but...I'd love to.
FBG: Man, the PC used to be the choice back in the mid 90's, not anymore. Look it, Sega has pulled their NCAA game now, you guys are about the only one on the block for now.

....................


FBG: I play on All-American.
Luhr: (Screen passes his way down the field to show off the Heisman pose TD celebration animation, it looks cool!).
FBG: That was sweet! So how many of those you got? Eight?

....................


FBG: Nice. How many guys you got working on this game, 40...50 guys?
Luhr: Not a huge team, less than 40.
FBG: Yea?
Luhr: Yea.

OK, you changed this, you made him smarter than he really was. The article did not say "Bo Jackson" but really said "the Auburn Runningback..." Which leads me to believe when the interviewer mentioned Archie Griffin by name, "Beavis" Luhr was like "Dude, you said Archie. Huh-huh, huh-huh."

Dang it, I probably won't get it for two weeks after, regardless!

No. I didn't change it. I bet he changed the text later on after I posted it, because the game can't have real players in it. So they can't say it's Bo Jackson.
