What Have You Played This Week?

Just as I thought, I didn't get much gaming time in this week. I played a lot of Tiny Tower but that was really it on the iPhone. As well as work, I have got a new TV i've been setting up ( A Panasonic Viera TXL32DT30) and i'm hoping to really test it during the next week.

Football Manager 2010 – PC – I made it into Europe, I finished 7^th in the league. I'm making a bigger push for top 6 this season, I have a new stadium also that's giving me lots of money.

Pokèmon White – DS – Not too much played. Mostly i've been catching Pokèmon online and transferring them to my game.

Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen – PS3 – i'm still working my way through the game. It feels pretty short, so even though i've only played a few more hours it feels i've made a lot of progress through the story (i've seen the movie so I kinda know what's going to happen). Still not great, the voice acting especially is starting to grind but that's more the script than anything else.

Tiny Tower – iPhone – My tower is now 42 floors high and I have 73 residents. For those who play, they'll understand that i've played a fair bit of this game. I'm keeping it free to play, I don't intend on buying credits. Oh I also have fully upgraded the elevator.

Chime – PS3 – I quickly chucked this in to see how the TV sounds, I only did a couple of 6 minute stages....its still great!

Aksys Announce They're Bringing Hakuoki: Demon Of The Fleeting Blossm To The USA In Q1 2012

Aksys Games have announced they are bringing Hakuoki: Demon Of The Fleeting Blossm on the PSP to the USA in Q1 2012. Aksys summarize it best on their press release.

Japan’s Edo Period was drawing to a close. The shogunate, who’d held power in the country for more than 200 years, found itself challenged by the imperial court, and by several domains who had chaffed under shogunal rule.
In this midst of this political unrest, an organization rose to prominence: The Shinsengumi. Originally formed to protect the street of Kyoto from masterless samurai, they came to represent the last, tragic bastion of the honor-bound samurai culture that had defined much of Japan’s history.
In Hakuoki, a young woman by the name of Chizuru comes to Kyoto in search of her missing father, and soon encounters danger and the Shinsengumi in quick succession. When it becomes clear the Shinsengumi are also searching for her father, Chizuru is put under their protection.
But odd things are afoot in Kyoto—possibly even supernatural things. Can Chizuru navigate this maze of mortal danger and political intrigue? Amidst so much mystery and death, can she find romance?

Japan’s Edo Period was drawing to a close. The shogunate, who’d
held power in the country for more than 200 years, found itself
challenged by the imperial court, and by several domains who had
chaffed under shogunal rule.

In this midst of this political unrest, an organization rose to
prominence: The Shinsengumi. Originally formed to protect the street
of Kyoto from masterless samurai, they came to represent the last,
tragic bastion of the honor-bound samurai culture that had defined
much of Japan’s history.

In Hakuoki, a young woman by the name of Chizuru comes to
Kyoto in search of her missing father, and soon encounters danger
and the Shinsengumi in quick succession. When it becomes clear the
Shinsengumi are also searching for her father, Chizuru is put under
their protection.

But odd things are afoot in Kyoto—possibly even supernatural
things. Can Chizuru navigate this maze of mortal danger and political
intrigue? Amidst so much mystery and death, can she find romance?
