"Now you can discover how great it is to mix your own music in your own living room!"

also its not very great to mix at home, boring imo, why i quit.

Armin and Wii? It's a perfect fit. Both started out with lots of promise and then quickly reverted to shitty, halfassed products for the mass market.

You recalled correctly, but I guess the fun & games naming and shaming Tiesto for selling out, got in the way of reading the updated statement from the man himself denying the links as fake rumours. Maybe Armin didn't catch up with that news either, as he went jumping headfirst into gaming to copy Tiesto (again).
Tiesto's had tunes on Wipeout for example, and made the remix of Edward Carnby, thats it for computer games (so far).
wiimote will come in handy for the jesus pose most def

Chemical Brothers, Leftfield and Orbital had their tracks in the original Wipeout from 1995. So in terms of originality Tiesto was far from first. In fact what's made Wipeout and Wipeout 2097 (XL in USA) so unique was the brilliant music combined with the futuristic environment. Still some of the best games ever.
Especially 2097.
