When games play themselves


Squeenix (pardon me for using such a childish contraction) is best known for making games that have your character level up in some form or another. Be it in an Action-RPG setting in Kingdom Hearts II, or in a turn based strategy game like say Front Mission. That's why people's eyes rolled when they heard that Squeenix will be making a basketball game for Nintendo in the form of Mario Hoops, and understandably so.

Squeenix making a basketball game? Why? Can they? Will they somehow have Mario use gambits or something? Apparently, Mario Hoops was not that hot review-wise. A lot said it was good, but they're hesitant to attach the word "great" beside the game. Maybe it was too weird for some?

Speaking of weirdness, here's the latest WTF game creation by Squeenix. Gamasutra reports:

Square Enix and Sony BMG have announced "mobile dance game" Destiny's Child Groove due later this winter, featuring images of vocalists Beyonce Knowles, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams as well as versions of the popular group's songs.


Beyonce plus Square equals what?! Apparently the game is supposed to be a back-and-forth dance battle in which users compete against dancing AI, and the game should feature a bevy of Destiny's Child hits.

Why Squeenix why!

But if you thought Mario Hoops and this latest one by Square-Enix weirds you out, just take a look at this list of non-RPG/non-Strategy games that Squeenix has made through the years. You tell us if they're any good. (Note that games released only in Japan have JP on them)

That long list, and the rest of the article after the Jump!
