You ever have one of those pieces of music that just brings a smile to your face every time you hear it? For me, this is easily one of those tracks. Despite it technically being an orchestral cover of the first game’s main theme, Simple and Clean, I’ve always treated this as its own track; one that represents the entirety of the franchise.

Five Videogames That Should Get Rhythm-Action Spin-Offs
As I mentioned in the Dancing All Night review, I’ve developed a fondness for rhythm-action games over the last few years. I can’t quite pinpoint where it started nor can I say why I enjoy playing them. Maybe it’s because I feel like I’m contributing to the music itself despite not being musically inclined at all.

The Entertainment Dome Episode 13 – Fantastic Beasts and Where the Hell Are They?
It’s not been a good year so far, but that won’t stop us from being positive! This week on The Entertainment Dome, we officially introduce a weekly segment where we recap the Ace Attorney anime, we discuss the recent trailer for the new, not Harry Potter movie and we dive down a deep, dark hole when James brings up the upcoming Preacher adaptation (also we fade out at the end too early – whoops).
The Entertainment Dome Episode 1 – How Do I Business?
In the first episode of the new, rebooted Entertainment Dome, James and I have a brief Danganronpa discussion, talk about Square Enix’s terrible business practice of cutting their games up and begin what will no doubt be a recurring trend of going on unrelated tangents.

Kingdom Hearts may have tested my patience quite a few times over the years and the complete lack of Kingdom Hearts III info makes it hard to get excited for it.

So, here’s a list of what worlds I would personally love to see in a future Kingdom Hearts game, whether it be KH III or in the next saga. Continue reading
My VG Music Picks #8 – He’s a Pirate (Kingdom Hearts II)
(originally posted March 20th 2015)
Kind of cheating with this once since it was originally a piece of music from a film but it got used in Kingdom Hearts II so it technically counts. Plus it’s really good. Continue reading
Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX – Why I’m Excited
(originally posted July 4th 2014)
I have a very odd relationship with the ‘Kingdom Hearts’ series. Despite my frustration at some of its themes and its overall plot in general, any new information regarding the franchise excites me. The first ‘Kingdom Hearts III’ trailer made me squeal like a girl and the more recent trailer for the upcoming ‘2.5’ left me with a wide grin on my face. Maybe it’s the nostalgia or the fact that the good of the series outweighs the bad – whatever the reason, I still enjoy the series, and I’m especially looking forward to the aforementioned remakes.
