Let’s be honest. Advent Rising was a terrible game. But it had some of the best music I’ve ever heard in any videogame ever - potentially even better than Symphony of the Night. Take a listen if you don’t believe me.

While I didn’t love The Witcher, it did have some fairly decent music. Probably the main reason I didn’t like the game is because it uses the same engine as the original Neverwinter Nights - the engine was my main complaint about NWN too.
Complaints aside, I hope you enjoy listening to the music from The [...]

You knew this one was coming, didn’t you? How could I cover video game music and not hit Beyond Good and Evil? Anyway, there really is some pretty nice music in the game. Hopefully, you enjoy it half as much as I do.

Here’s the second Lungfishopolis musiccast - this one focuses on the music from Nintendo Wii’s Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I’m not entirely happy with the audio quality on this one - I’ll try to do better next time.

I’ve been wanting to do a music segment for a while now, and the first game that came to mind for music is Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The mp3 is nearly 13 minutes long, whereas I was shooting for 10-12 minutes, but given the number of songs I squeezed in, I’d say I did [...]

Keepers is a weekly segment in which I discuss games I’ve played that I’ve seen fit to keep after playing. I generally sell a game that I’ve finished, so the only reason I keep one is because I plan to replay the game some day. Classifying a game as a “keeper” is generally a badge [...]

A lovingly-crafted parody of Oregon Trail, themed to Fallout Boy. There are some nice attempts at Guitar Hero like play, and some really poor attempts at shooter mechanics, but the game sure is funny. I died on the side of the road after my van was capsized by surf zombies. My chicken nuggets sank and [...]

I happened across this recently: Traditional Christmas music done in the style of old 8-bit video games. They’ve actually combined Christmas music with specific game tunes. “Super Jingle Bros.” is a great example. Starts off sounding very much like the Mario Brothers tune, and then you realize it’s “Jingle Bells”. But it all sounds like [...]

Here’s a little secret about me.  I wanted Rock Band primarily for the ability to sing.  Oh sure, I wanted to play guitar like I did in Guitar Hero and GH2, and I was curious about drumming, what with it being similar to real drumming, but what I really wanted to do was sing.  I [...]

Gods be praised!
Not only will the Front be represented in Rock Band, but it’s one of his absolutely bestest songs ever, the Achewood inspired track “Livin’ on the Corner of Dude and Catastrophe”. I absolutely can not wait to try my hand at dropping his inconceivably thick rhymes. It’s supposed to drop on Tuesday, [...]
