      How does someone’s entire conception of video games still involve quarters in (after) 2023. Thats honestly insane to me. Like how do you let that person create any type of art, let alone a tv show based off of a video game, if they have that little awareness of the world around them. Like ehst did this guy do before this. “We want you to make a commercial for our new operating system. ‘Oh computers, thats easy. Most computers are pretty simple. You feed in a punch card and you can make the computer do things. MacOS XV changed all that, it doesnt even need punch cards.’”’

    A lot of games have great music. Instead of calling it video game music, which absolutely invites people to say stupid shit, just say you generally listen to atmospheric soundtracks.

    Growing up in small town east Texas taught me to create euphemisms for all kinds of fun shit.

    It’s really ironic that a lot of people equate game soundtracks with some sort of “kid music” or something that isn’t “real music”.

    Most of UT2004’s OST could be used on a rave and nobody would know any better.

      There’s a reason it’s won game of the year so many years in a row.

      If you started with the beatboxed version at that family table, I would back you up with the bzzchek budda bucheck sounds. Greentext’s family doesn’t know the classics.

        *neighbour leans in the window and starts making deep Jubbajubbadzabajzaba sounds*

    Sometimes when it’s quiet and I get a moment to sit, ponder, and allow myself to be bored, I’ll hear either The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time title theme song or, if I’m feeling energised, I’ll hear the opening theme for a new game start in Super Mario 64 (where Lakitu is flying around with the camera and Mario jumps out of the warp pipe).

      Ocarina of Time soundtrack lives in my head rent free too. For me, its usually Lost Woods, everyone who played remembers the tune even if they don’t know the name.

    My 2yo goes fucking nuts when Bobomb battle field plays, particularly the Hang onto your Hat remix album. Whole family dancing, kids spinning around, good times had by all.

    Ok but Mario slaps so I wouldn’t be offended at all if someone suggested that. Dire Dire Docks, Gusty Garden Galaxy, Super Mario Bros 3 athletic theme? Yes please
