Mojib Ribbon Game Promises Musical Spam

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to a Gamers.com report discussing the bizarre Japanese PlayStation 2 game, Mojib Ribbon, from the creators of Parappa The Rapper and this title's cult prequel, Vib Ribbon. The article says, "Like its predecessor, [Mojib Ribbon] ..is a simple rhythm game, but ..the game takes any text file and converts it into a Parappa-style rap, which players must then follow through stick inputs." Furthermore, the game uses the network adaptor and "..lets players send game data back and forth between each other. Players could e-mail especially inspiring raps to each other, or simply use their morning spam to generate a new game challenge." There's more info available via a preview at The GIA and pictures from this year's GDC.

You know those ideas you have, and don't bother recording anywhere, but then someone else goes and makes money off of it? ... I wanted to do something like this using libsdl. Ergad. Oh well, maybe I'll start actually doing something about my ideas one of these days...

Huh?

Shouldn't this be the RIAAs job? They do a pretty good job right now, and they only look to get better in the future!
