Classic Video Game Songs Get Lyrics

Aspiring musician and YouTube star Fredde Gredde might not have the most pure talent we’ve ever seen (nothing some good audio software couldn’t fix), Freddie25 has a way with melody and creating medleys of niche-y topics. This time around he’s created a medley of classic video game music, complete with homemade lyrics. We’ve seen Japanese adaptations of the Super Mario Bros. theme and we’ve even seen how Michael Jackson pretty much wrote the music for Sonic the Hedgehog 3, but... Continue reading

Starcraft II Mod Gives Blizzard a Final Fantasy-Inspired Turn-Based Edge

The last time I got excited about a Final Fantasy title was with FF10. The graphics, the... Continue reading

Breaking: Square-Enix Buys Eidos

Whether you’re a fan of Lara Croft or just get a boner for anything Final Fantasy related, you’ll now be pleased to know that Eidos has accepted a bid of about $118 million from Square-Enix. This could very well mean that in the not-too-distant future, Square characters could be making their way to Eidos titles and vice versa. Actually, fat chance, but I’m sure the combined resources of two top-notch gaming studios will lead to some creative titles in the... Continue reading
