GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Monday, Apr 14, 2008

Time to break out the Doritos and the Mountain Dew, because the series has finally hit 100 entries. Still tons of 16-bit games to cover, leaving me to contemplate just how many more hundred videos I'll make in the future. I just thought I was making a little video feature about sweet gaming tunes, but now I've morphed into this completist mega-nerd seeking to leave no stone unturned, so I guess this'll just go on for many months to come.

From Bleeps to Beats, The Music of Video Games

Entry 91 - Snatcher

Entry 92 - Zelda: A Link to the Past

Entry 93 - Equinox

Entry 94 - The Secret of Monkey Island

Entry 95 - Street Fighter II

Entry 96 - Donkey Kong Country

Entry 97 - Donkey Kong Country 2

Entry 98 - Donkey Kong Country 3

Entry 99 - Maniac Mansion

Entry 100 - Day of the Tentacle

Yep, SF2 and the DKC games have cool music, I agree. That being said, I'd like to bring Snatcher to your attention. Like just about everything else in this game (maybe not the voice acting), the music is phenomenal if you ask me. Seriously Kojima, please go back to this franchise after you've served the fanboys your latest offering of cyber-chicks and ninjas running about. Just too good to let it die in obscurity like that. If you've ever heard the song 'Heat Miser' by Massive Attack, I'm quite certain you'll especially like the first tune in the video. If you haven't heard that song, well, stop reading this blog and go to iTunes or something like that. Gar out.

ebbderelict - Yeah, I just love that game. Probably still my all-time favorite, so I had to make a video for it. The main theme is pretty catchy too.

The Donkey Kong Trilogy has the one of the best and original soundtracks ever made. It just has so many beats, funk and vibes on every stage. Truly one of a kind.
