What Have You Played This Week?
Football Manager 10 – PC – Still with Annan but in the first division now.
Critter Crunch – PS3 – I loved the demo for the game and jumped at the chance to get it. It has some of the best HD art in any game and a simple and effective puzzle mechanic. The animals are really cute, and the game has fun with them. I do recommend people get the demo just to see how good HD art can be on the PS3, and hopefully that'll hook you.
Uncharted 2 – PS3 – I was in the Uncharted 2 beta and really enjoyed the online multiplayer, but I never really played it after the game came out. Now i've done the game i've started working my way back into the multiplayer and i'm glad to see that its still great. Its all working great and there seems to be a load of people still playing it.
what have you been playing this week? feel free to add your weeks gaming selection in the comments, or comment on my selection for this week
