Miku madness is rising to a fever pitch with the recent release of Project Diva, a PSP rhythm game starring the blue haired pop star, and it seems to celebrate the event, Miku decided to go on tour. Well, virtual tour, since she technically doesn't exist. It's pretty incredible to remember every once in a while that one of the most frequently played artists on my iPod isn't real. Reality checks are totally overrated.
Anyway, if you were lucky enough to be hanging out in the Playstation Home central plaza, you could have caught a very special concert performance: Miku herself. The video above shows that off, and if you stuck around for the whole show you earned a virtual leek for your character that you can carry around in-game to brag that you actually saw it.
I'm grumpy I missed this awesome moment, so I'm going to go back to playing Project Diva to ease my pain. Anyone get their hands on it yet, and if so, do you think it lives up what the digital goddess deserves?
