Looky Touchy Recommends

I've barely just started this site, but already it's time for a break. I'm going to take a tiny vacation from molesting games and ogling at screen shots to spend some time with family and do a bit of bill-paying work. During this brief intermission feel free to check out the shining examples of gaming goodness that earned a Looky Touchy recommendation (in no particular order).

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap
Animal Crossing: Wild World
Cloud
Mario Kart: DS
Infected
Wario Ware: Twisted
The Warriors
Guitar Hero
Shadow of the Colossus
Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee
We Love Katamari
Trauma Center: Under the Knife

You'll notice that this short list is heavy on handheld games and completely devoid of Xbox 360 titles. I have Project Gotham Racing 3, Kameo: Elements of Power and Perfect Dark Zero lubed up and ready for some fierce touching, but no Xbox 360 to play them on. Thanks for the throbbing set of gamer blue balls, Microsoft. Next year this list will be much longer and feature a wider array of games representing all platforms. That's my promise to you.

Watch this space for a year-end list of my personal top ten of 2005, which will include more than a couple games not yet covered on this site. Until then, be safe and have fun.
