On this week’s show: games! Specifically, the guilty pleasures and bargain-bin treasures that keep us entertained between all of those Big Important Games we play. We’ve scoured our collections for the titles that we’d categorize as “so bad it’s good” or “too cheap to suck” and included our favorites here. If that isn’t enough, we’ve also got sweat, dude-bros, James Bond and swanky new music by Brother Android. So good it burns!

We’re back! Taking inspiration from their favorite books, movies, and TV shows, the VGH crew is wishing, hoping, and dreaming of video game adaptations that probably won’t ever see the light of day.

My apologies for the delay in getting this blog post up! I recently had a bunch computer related issues last week and was unable to work on anything. As I mentioned in VGH #8, game music is my favourite genre. This will be part one of my game music blog posts. Today I want to showcase some of my favourite game intro music and a few of my favourite composers. Let us get on with it shall we?!

There’s just too much incredible music out there to fit into one show! In an attempt to cover even a fraction more of it, we’ve each collected a few more songs we think are worth listening to.
