Music in Video games

[Ntalikeris666]

Hello there,

Since the release of TETRIS, music has accompanied almost all video games, with soundtracks that might and might have not written history.

Though there are many modern games that have Great -original- musical soundtrack, written by Tallented musicians. Some of these titles are: the "Medal Of Honour" Franchrise, the "Call Of Duty" Franchrise, "Hitman 2", the "Battlefield" series, the "Halo" series

To hear Medal Of Honour's soundtracks, you can visit this youtube user: http://www.youtube.com/user/impossibleisfaby

There is some good music in the Legend of Zelda games, especially the more recent ones.

Bejeweled 1, 2, and Twist have some good music in those games.
I also have Return to Ravenhearst which this game has a real
soundtrack done by a real orchestra. Bookworm Deluxe has a
theme influenced by Brahms music.

Oh... the fantasy... it's all around and that's still all it is... pure fantasy...
the gaming of it... the Disney taming of it... what doesn't really exist...
and those factors have launched enough corporations already,
so why shouldn't musicians get inspired by all these new creations?

Well I now get to that Journey franchise....still have no idea what going on in the game but the music there is something unrealistic.....so cool, so peaceful so relaxing
As for the rest of industry, here is the playlist I use from time to time: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2ti5suqx2PkRwGTO0rTIxV
