Irritating Stick

"What the hell is an Irritating Stick?" you may ask, since the question's been drilling into your head the moment you read the title to this review. Well, simply put, Irritating Stick is a videogame version of that carnival game where you slap down a buck and try to maneuver a metal rod through a metal maze without touching the sides. More accurately, though, Irritating Stick is the US localized version of a Japanese PlayStation game based on Dengeki Iraira Bou (Irritating Electric Stick, for those that need the direct translation) -- a gameshow in Japan where you really do get electrocuted if you touch the sides.
