    Well I don't speak Japanese, so I only know:

    Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King
    Dr Mario
    StarSoldierR
    and there's a Pokemon game there as well, which if I had to guess would be called "Pokemon Farm". >___>

    If someone could translate them properly it would be appreciated. :noworries:

    Anyway, I think WiiWare is actually starting to look quite promising. Hopefully we'll start to see a lot more games in future.

    Audiosurf

    I've been addicted to this game for the past 2 days, so I was wondering if anyone else here had played it, or at least had heard of it. xD

    It's a rhythm for PC where you can import any song from your own library and it will construct a unique track out of it based on the tempo/intensity/etc of the music. You score points by hitting the colored blocks, but have to dodge grey blocks. I guess the easiest way to explain it is through video:

    Of course Through the Fire and the Flames is quite an extreme example. <_>

    Anyway~ if anyone here has played it then post your opinions of it, and maybe recommend some good songs to surf to. :3

    "At the tail end of this morning's GDC 2008 keynote address by John Schappert, special guest Tomonobu Itagaki announced that Ninja Gaiden II will be released on June 3.

    Itagaki flew in from Tokyo especially to attend the Microsoft keynote, telling attendees that he wanted to prove Japanese developers are still alive and kicking.

    In addition to confirming the game's release date, Itagaki showed off the newest playable build of Ninja Gaiden II, running Ryu through his lightning-fast paces in the Temple of Sacrifice stage."

    "Microsoft just confirmed this to be true and officially announced the sequel during its keynote. A trailer was shown that didn't reveal any gameplay but showed a very stylish, cinematic battle with a Locust soldier. The presentation ended with designer Cliffy B chainsawing his way onto the stage to announce the release date: November 2008. Of course, he also confirmed it will be Xbox 360-exclusive."

    Playing it now. <3

    Edit: Just got finished with it. It goes up to the first cross examination and then finishes. In short: very awesome.

    There's no spoilers for previous games in it either, so pretty much anyone can play it.

    Surprised there's still no topic for this.

    My Top 10:

    1. In Rainbows - Radiohead
    2. Fear of a Blank Planet - Porcupine Tree
    3. Neon Bible - Arcade Fire
    4. My Downfall OST - Venetian Snares
    5. The Inevitablie Rise and Liberation of NiggyTardust! - Saul Williams
    6. Year Zero - Nine Inch Nails
    7. Walking With Strangers - The Birthday Massacre
    8. Tohuvabohu - KMFDM
    9. Zeitgeist - The Smashing Pumpkins
    10. No World for Tomorrow - Coheed and Cambria

    Honorable mention: The Dethalbum - Dethklok

    A lot of the albums on there are quite close so you could probably rearrange a lot of the list and I'd still agree with it.

    So, what was the best album(s) of 2007 for you? :3
