The answer the my question is LocoRoco. Yes a 35 year old female who has seldom if never picked up a controller to play a video game loved this game.

Why?

Here is why:
- Controls, the basic movement is controled by the L and R index buttons. You move through the world in a fluid intuitive roll.
- Visual language. The vibe is very friendly and "cute". Not blood or aggression.
- Characters. The main character is endearing and sings.

You have to see the game to understand.
I believe its the first in a new breed of game that will appeal ot a much broader audience.

Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly

First to recommend

Description

Wow... SO SCARY.

I don't really like horror films all that much because I don't find them very scary, but this game takes the genre so much further since you're actually controlling what you do. The game's camera angles are really weird and creepy, and your only defense from all the ghosts is to take really close up photographs of them... YIKES!

I can't play this game for more than 30 mins at a time... and definitely not with the lights off XD

Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles

I loved this game so much.

The major downside to the game is the fact you have to use GBAs to play (also the single-player mode sucks) but it is just so much fun to play with other people.

I was really sad when we won, because it ended :(

And the music is so good... I downloaded the whole soundtrack XD

Game Cube Mario Party 7 Bundle

First to recommend

Description

I bought this bundle for my sister a couple years ago... it was an awesome deal at the time because it came with fabulous Mario Party 7 as well as an extra controller. So much fun!

My favorite GC game is Super Smash Bros, and my sister's fave is Animal Crossing.

Riven: The Sequel to Myst

First to recommend

Description

I loved this game so much. Myst was great, but the places in this one were amazing.

Too bad it won't run properly on my Mac now... I think there is something wrong with the way my Classic operates :( But I really want to play it again. I would seriously buy a really freaking old Apple just to play this game XD

Classic... fabulous! I love Myst and Riven.

Every sequel after Riven was terrible imo (I think that they were made by different people too). I got excited when they released the fancy 10th anniversary edition multi-pack thingy since I wanted to play the first two again, but was angrily disappointed when I got home and realized they had not updated the game software to run on newer operating systems (Seriously, how stupid is that...) so I ended up not being able to play them anyway.

But, yes. Awesome game.
