Audiosurf is Top-Selling title on Steam in Feburuary

For those of you thought I was crazy for paying a whole $10 for Audiosurf, I guess you were wrong. Not only has it gotten some supurb reviews it was the best selling steam game in Feb.

Though no sales numbers have been given, a press release from Valve reveals the results of February's Steam sales, with Audiosurf beating out titles like Portal, Team Fortress 2, and Counter-Strike. Not bad for a one-man, indie operation.

Ok big question... I have a lot of legally purchased music that is obviously encoded in PROTECTED wma format, in the demo it bsod'd the game, but would they work properly in the full (paid) version?

The demo is pretty fun though for more up tempo songs.

I dl'd it and it's pretty fun. If my demo runs out with a time limit or something I'll end up buying the game. You can play anything, Lamb of God
