I guess many game music fans prefer original soundtrack albums.
I go online, and I love watching heavy metal bands and guitar players play heavy metal versions of the 'Zelda' theme, and people do all the 'Zelda' music, which is one of my favorite soundtracks.
When you talk about the Final Fantasy series, the series started selling better after 7, and that was the base idea for the center of the set list for the LA concert.
Most game music is based on loops effectively.
I've got songs that sample 'Mario Bros.,' 'Charlie Brown,' the 'Rugrats' theme, the music that plays when you turn on a Gamecube.
For over ten years or so game music has developed into a very large market.
I'm such a video game fan that being able to do voices in video games is just fantastic.
I used to compose a lot of music for video games, before I got into movies, and I am slowly getting back to it.
'Mortal Kombat,' the first arcade one, that soundtrack sounds like a Chick Corea album.
