What Have You Played This Week?

Wow, where did that week go. It looks like next week could be the same. So not much gaming at all this week. The only surprise was when I played the Might & Magic: Clash Of Heroes demo I enjoyed it soo much I bought it straight away.

Football Manager 2010 – PC – not quite up to December in the game yet. Still having a strong season but not much else to report.

Pokèmon White – DS – I beat the ice gym. It was a little easier than I thought. I've Kept Litwick and replaced Simisear with Leavanny. I've watched N capturing the rare Pokèmon and have decided to capture Victini

Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes – PS3 – as I said before, I tried out the demo first and just enjoyed it soo much. The demo is very good itself as it has a good tutorial, several battles, and ends on a cliffhanger. So far in the game i've moved onto the second land. The first land is wood and elf themed and is a good introduction to the game, some characters, and different ways the battles can be played. It looks simply great, much like Capy's other game Critter Crunch. The battle system is deceptively simple as there is plenty of depth to it. Its easy to just attack and win with it, but there are levels of complexity you can try by doing combo's, making walls, and using champion characters. Whilst all these additional features sound hard, the game does a good job introducing them to players. I've not come across any major issues, occasionally your opponent face doesn't appear in the pre battle screen, but I have to say the game's load times are a little long, but when you see how good and detailed the HD art is its easy to understand.

Capcom Have Detailed Yesterdays Marvel Vs Capcom 3 Patch


Marvel Vs Capcom 3 was patched yesterday and Capcom have provided patch notes. most changes were bug fixes and some minor gameplay tweaks.
  • Fixed bug where a cross counter and X-factor activation would cause Ryu to float if using the β or γ assists.
  • Fixed bug involving snapping out Zero during the activation of his Shadow Clone, which was disabling control of that player's characters.
  • Fixed bug involving the hit stun for Captain America's Shield Slash against Ryu, Amaterasu, and Hulk, which was allowing an unintended combo.
  • Fixed bug for displaying more than 128 victories in a game lobby.
  • Fixed bug involving Haggar blocking an attack in the air, immediately after using the Hoodlum Launcher.
  • Fixed bug for displaying consecutive victories over 99 in Player Match.
  • Fixed bug that allowed an infinite combo by Amaterasu against Taskmaster (Standing), Amaterasu(Standing or Ducking), Zero (Standing), and Shuma-Gorath (Ducking). Bug fix involved Amaterasu's Solar Flare attack (x5) and Power Slash combo.
  • Fixed bug where Spencer's Bionic Maneuvers would cause Viewtiful Joe and Arthur to be stuck in the ground, when used as part of a combo with Haggar's Rapid Fire Fist.
  • Fixed bug where Specner's Bionic Maneuvers would cause the damage to display incorrectly, when used in a combo with Haggar's Steel Pipe and Rapid Fire Fist.
