You're welcome
 

I suddenly realise I have an issue of Amiga Joker that has a two-page interview with you. It was part of the monthly 'Was macht eigentlich..."-series in which they interviewed Amiga programmers from past to present (1993 that is).
Its time to dig out my magazine collection once again. ;)

Just curious: have you also programmed Kick Off 1 and 2 on the C64?

That would be very cool, thanks :)

No, I had nothing to do with the C64 version... it was reverse engineered, as far as I know.

Kick Off 1 advert in The Zone
 

I have put a one-page advert for Kick Off 1 in The Zone. The rest will follow the next days.
Are you still interested in the Kick Off3 review by CU Amiga as well?

Other may be interested in KO3, but I had nothing to do with it

Many thanks again, I'm adding the new stuff to the collection.

With good wishes,

Dino, I have also posted a different full page ad for Kick Off to the Zone. I also have some box scans of several of the Kick Off games if you're interested.

Very much so, thanks a million :)

I have
 

All the Kick Off related adverts, one page, two page, all the PM adverts, even the infamous PM2 advert, which advertised the combination of KO2 with PM ... not the tosh that eventually came out! ..just need a good scanner!!

cool... can anyone lend him a scanner? :cheese

"Was Macht... Dino Dini"-interview is in The Zone.
 

I have put the “Was macht…” interview in The Zone. It is written in German. My apologies for the low quality of the scans. I was a bit in a hurry this morning.

Thank you very much again

I am astounded and very grateful for you kind efforts to get me these materials :)

Hello,

I could provide you with reviews of KO, KO2, all those extra disks for both parts, PM and Goal! from at least three german magazines. Hope it isn't a problem for you that these articles are written in german.

If you should be interested, please tell me where I should send or upload the scans.

Up them here!!!

Links to Kick Off 2 adverts and Zzap Competition
 

I have discovered The Defguide to Zzap is back online with scanned magazines. This will save me the hassle of scanning pages. ;) Grab them while you can.

- On pages 65-67 in Issue 61, May 1990 you can find an article called "The Big Match". It is a funny description about a Kick-Off 1 competition between Phil King (Footy fan and Zzap reviewer) and one of his readers:

- On page 32 of this very issue you can find a scanned single-page advert of Kick Off 2:

- Page 48 in Issue 66, October 1990 has a one-page advert of Kick Off 2 which has more descriptions:

- Finally in the December 1990 issue, you can find a two-page advert of Kick Off 2 and Kick Off 2 Extra Time on pages 62 and 63:

wonderful! There was even a review of Player Manager, which is great because I don't think I have any of my own.

A big thank you.

Wow Dino Dini
 

Dino was surely the daddy of Soccer/footy games on the Amiga and in some way the Atari ST too.

When i 1st played Kick off on my friends ST i could barely control it and got thrashed loads of times, The Roar when i scored my 1st goal i nearly shouted the roof off the house :)

When i got My own Amiga i practiced like hell on kick off II my friend and i used to play every sunday for about 3 years! When he got Sensi Soccer and said it was better than Goal i called him a Looney how could he insult Goal.

Still i played Sensi for a while but for me it never had the same atmosphere Sundays were never the Same.

Kick off series & Goal Ruled

-= Respect =- Dino!

Gonna sign this patition in a mo!

Re: Links to Kick Off 2 adverts and Zzap Competition
 

And on page 64, Kick Off is on the ad for Challengers.

Shame Dino Dini is a self-obsessed twat.

What an amazingly constructive post. It's real added lots to this thread.

I bet he was just referring to that (silly?) SWOS vs. Kick off debate.

Thanks!
