My birthday happened to pass recently and I received two $50 EB Games cards as gifts. I cashed them in on Friday for Elektroplankton and Chibi-Robo.

Elektroplankton is Elektroplankton. There isn't much else like it available for handhelds or consoles. I'm happy with how easy it is to create decent arrangements and the graphics are enthralling.

Chibi-Robo borrows an awful lot from Pikmin and Katamari Damacy in that it is very hard to categorize. You're a 4" helper robot who has to clean up a house using built in gadgets and improvised tools. It's stupidly fun and I'm having a ball with it so far. Scrubbing paw prints with a toothbrush is surprisingly satisfying.
