With so many dang Pongs...

RatedMedieval · 05-12-2008, 04:44 PM

Which one should I get? As far as graphics, gameplay, and other features...

I believe there are now 7 versions of Pong.. =\

Pong is an easy game to make. It helps us devs get familiar with the system, and in my case, it was my first game in XNA ever. I also tried to be the first to have it out, but ended up being something like the third. If you ask me, I think you should get my version

Fair enough, I will give it a try tonight.

pong v3 currently has the better code, especially in the area of music integration. And I don't mind there being a million and one pongs as each is better than the last.

I hear the pong V3 that came out yesterday is pretty nice, but I have yet to try it out b/c my zune died last night as well >.< Music+Menu+touch controls.. I believe.

and I plan on implementing Multiplayer as soon as I can :P

Im beginning to think we should merge all Pongs into one thread and just put them all available on the first post of that thread with a bit of a description or screen of the game. It would really clear up the clutter and make finding them each much easier to find as they all possess similar names. This should streamline things a bit and make sifting through for the "Best" or "preferred" versions a little easier. Just a thought tough.

I would have to disagree and say mine is the best, with full music choosing, visualizations, optional acceleration and album art, and sparks that come out of the ball and add to the experience.

Also, I will be adding multiplayer to mine soon too.

My Pong has multiplayer.
If you're looking for a SP pong I must say, Im a little deprived of all those fancy features, but if you want to play with some friends (actually, just a friend) then this is the only way to go. Check out my sig for the link.
