According to Google it's a video game that has a new version released like every year.

Anyway that doesn't explain why there are so many songs made for it. I mean the ones I can name now are Bad Apple!!, Little Princess, Any IOSYS song. And the problem is that I can't find any gameplays of those songs in that game... not in English atleast. I'm probably as wrong as it gets.

Could someone help me understand Touhou Project? WTF is it really and why is it (not) so popular and has so many great songs made that are probably more famous than the game itself?
PLEASE

On top of that I know the song "Freedom Dive" is from the game "Cytus". I know the artist 'xi' made many other songs but I can't search for "Xi" on the website here, so how do I find other beatmaps with songs from Xi? Or aren't there any? Either way I can't find any results if I search for "xi"

This thread is now about neckbeards wearing hats.

That has literally nothing to do with my question, your fedora peasant post was very random and retarded.

Also this is off-topic, I was asking for what Touhou really was. If I knew it was an anime I'd obviously post it there, but it isn't... it's a game. So this is the right section.

This is not the right section. According to what google told you, Video Games is the best place to ask this.

Because touhou have some of the best soundtracks.

As for the Xi thing, I believe it's related to the minimum amount of characters for the search function to work. You can try to search for "IA" (the vocaloid) and it won't give any results.

It's just anime girls shooting stuff all over the screen. Personally I found it hideous when I first checked it out.

Touhou (東方), or the Touhou Project, refers to a series of overhead shooting games created and developed by an alcoholic Japanese pedophile named Zun. First developed for the NEC PC-9801 line of computers, the games are now developed for Windows to better enable total world domination. The Touhou series is a pioneer of the danmaku shooter genre of video games, featuring several elements essential to any good Japanese video game, including rapidly flashing lights, MIDI music and little girls. The characters in Touhou are very static and boring, yet despite this, they are all over the fucking internet, essentially making Touhou the Japanese equivalent of Team Fortress 2. Since its conception, Touhou has done its capitalist nation proud by rapidly becoming the most successful franchise in Asian geekdom since the used tampon industry.
