Peggle
If you listened to our podcast you’ll know that I have a new found addiction for Peggle. I play the Mac version when I’m at my desk and the iPhone version while I’m doing pretty much anything else. I used to get so frustrated in traffic but now I just play Peggle.
RagDoll Kung Fu
I grabbed it free off the US PSN and to my surprise RagDoll Kung Fu is excellent fun. It has that addictive aspect to it that glues me to my DS3 controller. The way you have to use the controller’s motion sensor to execute special moves is just brilliant. I particularly like the ‘Surviva’l and ‘King of the Hill’ challenges and so far, I’m yet to achieve gold.

Zero Gesshouku no Kamen – Fatal Frame 4
I’ve been giving my Wii a little bit of love lately with two great titles. First is Fatal Frame 4, a haunting but absolutely beautiful adventure horror game with so much atmosphere. The game sends chills down your spine and believe me folks, you will spend many nights awake after playing this but it’s totally worth it! Such a shame this game will never be released in the West.
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom
As you could expect from a “Capcom vs” game, Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is an over-the-top fighter with ridiculously big ultimate moves, buddy-assist and is loads of fun! On the Capcom side the roster includes Ryu and Chun Li of Street Fighter, Megaman, Morrigan from Dalkstalkers and even Viewtiful Joe. Characters from the Japanese animation studio Tatsunoko include many well known and unkown characters such as Ken the Eagle, Casshan, Gold Lightan, Tekkaman and Karas. It looks great too, with fully rendered 3D characters and backgrounds and superb finisher effects the series is known for.

iPhone
This week I have mostly been playing with my new iPhone, it has become completely stuck to the palm of my hand, I am completely addicted to it, it’s a complete change around from my old Nokia N95 which most of the time wasn’t even charged up! I’ve played a few games from the app store but nothing that has impressed me as yet or kept my attention for very long.
RagDoll Kung Fu
I also got a free copy of RagDoll Kung Fu which i’ve only really had a quick look at, its alright but if I’m honest I wouldn’t have bought it and I’m glad I hadn’t. It seems alright for a giggle but I can’t see me spending too much time with it.

Saints Row 2 – Playstation 3
I brought Saints Row 2 recently as a friend recommended it to me for the CO-OP and I have to say I really am enjoying it. It feels like GTA but more fun, they really should have put CO-OP in GTA IV because it’s such a good feature on Saints Row 2. I haven’t done much of the single player as I have been helping a friend, but from what I have played of it I am really looking forward to sitting down with it.
Resistance Retribution – PSP
I had a quick go on Resistance again this week, it’s a really good game for the PSP, it feels like Resistance on PS3 and I am finding the single player as good as the multiplayer.

Wipeout HD
Also I have begun to play Wipeout HD again it’s such an amazing game graphically and is complimented with its awesome soundtrack but due to some issues with its latest update 1.40 I was unable to get any online games which was a pain.
Warhawk
I also managed to jump into a Community based game of Warhawk TKA vs EU Forum which I mangaged to pick up a trophy for ‘Wreckless Trophy’
