Great list, mine needs a fair bit of refurbishment, I'll post up an updated one soon.

And as for Ikaruga
I think you're a little peeved because you can't get past the third level. Don't worry, neither can I. It's just a beautifully presented game, and the simplicity of it all ties in with the artistic direction so well. It's just one of those games where rhythm is completely paramount, without it there's no way to enjoy the game. For me personally, it has a way of kind of tapping into my primal 'will to survive' kind of thing, which is pretty much like most plane shooters (getting that "rush" trying to dodge bullets and all that) but the light/dark switch adds another dimension to it all. It's hard as fuck, mainly because I don't have that sense of "rhythm" that masters of this game do have. When playing the game, since I'm not good at it at all, I tend to disregard the combo system and rely purely on staying alive (a complete mess to watch, but gives me a good rush)
And yes, I probably do enjoy watching good players play the game, than actually play it myself. I can't name another game that happens with.
Perhaps this might sway you:

I could watch this over and over. Like playing an instrument, really.

Plus, the soundtrack is bloody awesome. Daresay better than Parappa's even??
Maybe.
Am I the only person that finds the Zelda franchise to be rather overrated?
