Distant Worlds isn’t so distant
At the beginning of the week, Square Enix announced that they would be conducting a new world tour in honor of the 20th anniversary of the original Final Fantasy release.

G is for Games and Gears.
One of my favorite parts of some of the games I own is the nostalgic feel I get from them. Most of the games I own that are over 5 years old are still in my collection for sentimental value. Whether it’s the first Final Fantasy I ever played or a Super Nintendo game I [...] -

First of probably a couple
I’ve decided since I have a vast VGM collection and a lot of disc space/bandwidth, I should try my hand at a music blog. So to start out, I’ll give you a couple of my favorites and one that I’ve really enjoyed from a soundtrack not to many people think about. Yasunori Mitsuda – One Who [...]
