I'm way delayed on this but I finally started playing AudioSurf and it's a lot of fun. I've known about the game for quite some time now but never checked it out because I don't usually like music games (with the exception of Parappa the Rappa). And the clips of it I saw didn't really show how the game flows with the music. I didn't expect the game to actually enhance my appreciation of songs. You really do feel like you're "in" the song, riding it. It's really strange. It is something much better experienced full-screen, inside the actual game with the full graphics quality. You get immersed in the song and the rhythm of the song... and the best part about it is obviously that you can use any mp3 that you want and it will create the "track you ride on.

Like I said, AudioSurf is old news, but oh well.

Here is a recording of me playing Parisian Goldfish by Flying Lotus. I recommend watching it in High Quality/HD or else it looks terribad. I'm just playing Mono (basically, you can't hit the grey blocks; other colors are worth points). I almost had a clean run here and didn't hit any =\. This got me on the Global Scoreboard.. which isn't much of a feat considering how obscure a song it is, but whatever. I at least beat a handful of people so that's good enough for me =P. I'm top on some The Knife songs as well, though. I'm getting better.

If the video is down it's probably because Youtube owned my content for using a full song.
