Madworld. ummm...Sega? And about 700,000 copies.

Rule 2 -> 

2) List these details:

Name of game [platform] - Developer/Publisher - Sales (by region optional) - Metacritic - User Score - Your Score

So yours would be

Madworld [Wii] - Platinum Games/SEGA - 0.70M (US 0.40M, EU 0.21M, JP 0.02M, OT 0.07M) - 81% - 8.8 - 8

But that is a good one, thanks.

Okay, you could, but try to follow the rules if possible. If not, I will format it for OP.
