This afternoon at ECTS we were very privileged to share a few words with the great Dino Dini, the man behind such games as Kick Off and Player Manager, a man whose name has become almost synonymous with addictive gameplay over the years. After what you might call a quiet spell of almost 10 years, Dino chose ECTS to speak to journalists about his latest project with Italian developer Tresicion. Fans of Kick Off rejoice: it’s another football title!

Dino was keen to stress that the game will find its roots in addictive gameplay, and he hopes to fill a gap in the football genre. Although the game is only in the early prototype stages, Dino has a number of ideas and a solid vision of what to do with the title, and we will be watching this one very closely. Expect to see the full dialogue of our interview with Dino very soon.

I have a question... I heard it from someone (a real jackass, so this is not a reliable source) that some of the Konami Winning Eleven games were designed by Dino Dini. I say this is absolute BOLLOCKS, but I'd like to hear from others

Hmm.. I would look forward to this Dino Dini´s new effort, but..

If he sticks to overhead view, it will just NOT sell.

I know it will certainly be a good game, but games using overhead view don´t sell anymore.

I see this around my friends, I just SHOW them games like SWOS or Total Soccer or Goal! and they suddenly go like "Man, this is CRAP" without even playing it.

People today won´t accept overhead view anymore

(I surely would play an overhead view soccer game)

Dino has been back for a while already on www.ko-gathering.com but now he's gone again. I've heard about his ambitious project. We'll have to wait and see......

Don't tell Dino that !

I don't care if it sells or not, because the money from that game doesn't pay my bills !

I just want him to make it, pure and simple overhead...that's it ! Make it fit on a PC floppy

Tell me about it.. Kick Off 2002, the game Steve Screech designed with our help, the Kick Off Association members, is absolutely fantastic, however people who hadn't played the earlier KO games could not appreciate it therefore it sold poorly.

Hey, the game looks good. Graphically the game can compete with the big names out there.

Now if Dino Dini can put his trademark on playability, we may have a killer game....

alkis21 · 06 September 2002, 08:16

Ok there's a misunderstanding.. I just learned that this is NOT Dino's game, they just hired him to work on it and make some improvements.
