Friday Five – Video Game Music
Welcome to the Friday Five! Each week I help you get to know me a little better with the help of a Top 5 list. This week’s topic: Video Game Music.
I was never much of a gamer, the list below is pretty much every console game I ever played. This is mostly because my console collection went from Atari 2600 when I was a kid, to NES for like my 8th birthday, and then I didn’t get anything else besides a Game Gear until I bought myself a PS2 my Junior year of college, and that was just so I could practice DDR at home before making an ass of myself at the arcade. And when I did get a game it was like one from the clearance rack once a year at christmas. So I missed a lot of good games. But those few I did manage to play had some great music. My list is all things I can hum off the top of my head.
- Wood Man / Dr. Wily Part 1 – Mega Man 2
- Big Blue – F-Zero
- Guile’s Theme – Street Fighter II
- Simple and Clean – Kingdom Hearts
- Intro / Team Select – Bad News Baseball – You’ve probably never heard of it, but it’s the greatest baseball game ever. The umpires are rabbits for some reason!
