What Have You Played This Week?

Again not too much played this week. i got a little too hooked into Football Manager 09.

Football Manager 09 – PC – I decided to go back to a favourite team in the game, FC bayern Munchen. They are not my favourite team, that's Ipswich Town, but they are one of the easiest teams to play as, which enables me to look for other players, tactics and such. Would love to get the new game, but unfortunately I can't afford it, but what is great about the Football Manager games is that you can play them for a long time, even if a new version has come out (typically as the newest Football Manager needs 1 patch for it to get great.)

Fat PrincessPS3 – I played alittle. I'm disappointed that there doesn't seem to be as many people online as when it came out. It's understandable, and this week even more so as Modern Warfare 2 is now out. I hope things pick up soon.


Tokobot PSPI have been interested in this game for a long time and was happy when it came through. Its a simple concept with simple controls, but it all fits with the graphic/art style and the story. I haven't got too far as yet, but it has done the tutorial in a clever way, incorporating it into the story. The graphics are great for the age of the game, but I do have the feeling that it may be a short game. The load times are acceptable. It's a little quirky, the story and art maynot be for everyone as it does have a anime style.


Modern Warfare 2 – PS3 – this game was going for £26 in my local Morrisons and my folks were kind enough to get this. After the frustrating initial update, then the lack of trophies working, and multiplayer not working. I left it alone until it was fixed.

This is my first Call Of Duty Game so it has taken a while to get used to the controls and the gameplay style. I played some of the game and got stuck on the russian so I decided to play online. I knew I wouldn't be good, I knew people would be better so I thought it would be the best place to learn how to control the game. And I was correct, it is taking time get used to it all, but i'm glad i'm improving.

I can see what the fuss is about, it looks great, it has a interesting story, but for me it hasn't hooked me like Killzone 2 did, and that includes single player and multiplayer.

WipEout HD Fury – PS3 – Back playing online. I got the update which fixed some things, which I have not noticed, and added the adverts. They are not obtrusive and at least relevant to the PlayStation brand. Previously, the adverts were increasing the games load times, this time they do appear to the fit load times of the game. The load times for WipEout HD Fury are not that long which kinda makes adverts short a perhaps a little pointless.
