What Have You Played This Week?

I'm happy I got some more gaming in during the week. Mobile gaming is still something I get in but i've tried to get more Pokèmon play in as well. The list maynot look like a lot but it was the time spent with each game.

Football Manager 2010 – PC – I got Havant & Waterlooville promoted after a easy end to the season. Prepping for the premiership was tough, I sold several players, trimmed the youth teams, and beefed up the coaching staff. It's been a tough start to life in the premiership. The first few games were tough but it only has taken a couple of wins and draws to keep me a couple of wins above the drop.

Pokèmon White – DS – I went Pokèmon catching throughout the week. I also explored some more areas . The trainers left in the game are pretty high up so i've been catching, breeding, and playing around with my squad and the different Pokèmon i've caught via the web game. I have had difficulty obtaining a Pokèmon I earned online, but after emailing the Pokèmon help center it looks like I should get it after the Tuesday maintenance.

Tiny Wings – iPhone 4 – I got a couple of games in. its a fun game and perfect for pick up and play.

Dalton – iPhone – as fun as this game has been. It does seem to cause some issues with Game Center.

GoGoGadget – iPhone – This is a fun game. It is a free Inspector Gadget game. It's a running game and you control gadget and help him jump, swing, and glide. It looks great and the music is fun. What makes this game stand out is the bonus features. As well as being able to stream episodes from the cartoon, you can also unlock a ringtone, look at concept art, earn powerups and much more.

Super Mega Worm – iPhone - This is fun game. I enjoyed the retro 16 bit look, the ridiculous story, and the fun gameplay. I picked this up when it was free, but it is well worth picking up for some money. The controls may take a bit to get used to (more how they're implemented on the screen and not so much how games controls)

About Hulk Hogan
From the moment he first stepped into a wrestling ring, Hulk Hogan changed the face of sports-entertainment forever. With his 24-inch pythons and unrivaled charisma that sparked the “Hulkamania” phenomenon, Hogan helped turn wrestling into must-see theater and took the industry to heights never before imagined. During his heyday, Hogan’s popularity with fans bordered on fanaticism, and, even today, he is one of the most recognizable people in the world. A 12-time World Champion in the ring, Hogan was dominant through the 1980s and 1990s, and he enjoyed a career pinnacle later in the ‘90s, as he led the controversial New World Order (nWo) in its attempt to take over WCW. A 2005 inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame, Hulk Hogan is one of the greatest superstars to ever lace up boots, and his impact on sports-entertainment is second to none. Hulk Hogan made an epic return to the world of professional wrestling when he joined Total Non-Stop Action Wrestling (TNA) in January of 2010. TNA is the #1 wrestling company in the world, and their weekly show, IMPACT WRESTLING, on Spike TV is an especially strong performer with young men.
