What Have You Played This Week?
Another week where it may look like i've not played much, but I have put a lot of time into Transformers: War For Cybertron multiplayer, and playing Football Manager on my work PC.
Football Manager 10 – PC – I Managed to get Havent & Waterlooville promoted to the Championship by winning the group. Thankfully I had a good winning streak whilst the others had problems. First season in Championship is being difficult. It doesn't look like i'll get relegated, but a mid table finish will be hard. Thankfully, chairman + loans means I now how enough money for a new stadium to be built and for training grounds to be finally updated.
3D Dot Game Heroes – PS3 – This is my new rented game. In preparation I had downloaded additional characters from 3D Dot Game Heroes website, but i'll save them if I decide to play through the game again. I've only completed the first dungeon, and working through the second, but the graphic style of the game is very impressive. It maybe simple, but it is very effective. The water effects in the game are also special and add to the look of the game. Things have been fairly easy so far, but the game is adding new things and challenges pretty well so far. Loading times are good, but I have installed the game, and i'm really taking advantage of the photo feature in the game, using the photo viewer to upload them to my facebook account. So far its fun, the trophies are easyish, and i'm looking forward to seeing how the game will pan out.
Transformers: War For Cybertron – PS3 – I put a lot of time into the multiplayer, trying to get the trophies. I'm enjoying multiplayer so it's not too frustrating, connecting issues still persist and so do issue with the game lobby saying no games available. It'll take some time, but i'm confident i'll get them and Platinum the game.
Did you manage to play more games than I have over the week, or do you have any comments on my experiences or questions about the games i've played? If you do, feel free to add them in the comments section.

Capcom And Namco Bandai Announce Street Fighter X Tekken For The Playstation 3 And Xbox 360
Capcaom have announced Street Fighter X Tekken is in development for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. The game will use the same technology that Capcom used in making Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV. The Street Fighter characters will keep their designs from Super Street Fighter IV, whilst the Tekken characters will be re-imaged using Super Street Fighter IV's art style. Capcom will also re-image Tekken's fighting style for the game, as Tekken games fight in a 3D ring and not the 2D rings that Street Fighter X Tekken will use. Capcom have annoucned that as well as the games Versus and training modes, a new Tag mode is coming to the game, for up to 2 fighters on each team.
The Trailer Capcom Have Released shows both the Ryu and Kazuya in the now familiar Super Street Fighter IV CGi style. the trailer also shows Dan being beaten badly. The Screenshots show how Kazuya Mishima and Nina Williams look in the Super Street Fighter IV Art Style and provide a glimpse at their fighting moves.
