#WeeklyGameMusic: A Song for Eternal Story (Phantasy Star Online)
Following up with a SEGA music from last week, we’re moving right along to their lesser known IP, the Phantasy Star series. More specifically, the first online-connected entry in the long-running JRPG sci-fi franchise, Phantasy Star Online (PSO). Fans of this game from the Dreamcast and Gamecube era could probably immediately guess which track I’ll…

#WeeklyGameMusic: Servants of the Mountain (Final Fantasy X HD Remaster)
In a bit of a twist, we visit this week’s #WeeklyGameMusic to a rearrangement of a mainline Final Fantasy game that wasn’t originally composed by Nobuo Uematsu. Servants of the Mountain, originally composed by Masashi Hamauzu, is perhaps an underrated gem that doesn’t get called out very often. This remix also gets a helping hand…

As the game The Legend of…

#WeeklyGameMusic: MNN+@0・ (Xenoblade Chronicles X)
#WeeklyGameMusic: New week, new music. Time to talk about a track that is frankly very difficult to spell. I’m talking, of course, about MNN+@0・, composed by Hiroyuki Sawano of Attack of the Titans fame. This is probably one of his early music debut in video game context; too bad it was introduced in the ill-fated…
