No, wait, not done. These old scrolling shooters are terrific, and some of them are so exteremely over the top that you feel happy playing after only doing so for 3.5 seconds. By that time, your ship has inexplicably been able to fire several thousand laz0rz and has pew pew'd 300 galactic starfighters into infinity. There's alot going on, on the screen. Oh, btw, Chris, did you hear the rumors about a co-op expansion for Dead Rising? Begin drooling..........now. Done and done. No, wait, not done.

I guess it's a bit of a mashup, saw some recognizable stuff in there from the game -- though it was mostly noise. I wonder if that was an ad, a bit of J-POP? The youtube comments are classically stupid as usual "omg that's not vocals". Edgar: holy crap that was abstract/crazy.

This game better be like visual crack and come with its own haram of beer-pouring, sandwich making concubines. Seriously. I can think of zero games I'd pay over $100 for (barring any additional controllers or an obvious ability to resell it for more). These kind of games used to be my favorite - 1941, D-force, anything where I was a "plane" and didn't have to worry about altitude, just firing non-stop at attacking enemies whose maneuvers had been choreographed by Brian Boitano. I can't wait for the ice-capades version of Galaga. Video games, I hear, <a href="http://kotaku.com/gaming/super-mario-on-ice/super-mario-on-ice-plus-mr-belvedere-167876.php" rel="nofollow">translate well to the performing semi-arts</a>. Seriously though - thats nuts. I hope it's not only worth it but I hope Mrs. Hexameter finds the lights and sounds irresistably arousing. That would be awesome. I need a game likat for PS3 on demo at Best Buy. "Wife can we get one?" "I already have 3 in the cart and dropped the baby off with my mother...in the car now!" GameDevGuyMatt - make this happen.
