NHL 2K9 Developer Interview (Audio)

by Dan Landis on September 5, 2008 at 1:40 pm


Which beard has what it takes to win the cup?

I had the privilege of participating in a conference call yesterday where the producers of NHL 2K9 fielded questions submitted by the gaming media. The whole thing has been recorded for your listening pleasure, with the exception of about 20 seconds in the middle where the call dropped out, most likely due to all this hurricane action we’ve been getting.

Producer Ben Bishop and online producer Jay Iwahashi gave some candid and interesting answers to our questions. The big concept for this year’s game is that it’s “different” from last year’s game and is supposed to be a lot easier to just pick up and play. They also lay claim to the first and, so far, only hockey title for the Wii, which they give the impression is their favorite version of the game. I’ll let the men speak for themselves:

    Wow, Dan, you sound so grumpy at the start there!

    Yes, I get that and “Did you just wake up?” a lot. Just the curse of having such a deep, manly voice.

    I’m sure there are many rewards, though…

    Yes, that’s true. People always take me seriously when I’m ordering pizza and always get my order right.

    I got the wrong order for a pizza once, and I liked the one they sent me so much that now I order it every time.

    Mmm. Pizza.
