Many people don’t realize it but music and sound play an important role in video games. It’s just as important as graphics and gameplay. Music and sound serve many different purposes, some obvious, some not so.We’re giving two PDP LVL50 wired gaming headsets for PlayStation 4, two PDP LVL50 wired gaming headset for Xbox One, and two PDP LVL50 wireless gaming headsets for Xbox One. Read on to find out how to enter for your chance to win!
Video games and music go hand in hand
During a game, music can tug at your heart or it can get you going in the direction that the game designer wants you to. On the other hand, music in a game can let the player know that they are losing health or just gained a power up. Finally, a game’s soundtrack can help brand it—and leave a lasting impression while creating many favourable memories.
As a direct result, video game concerts have become popular all over the world with gamers. Many concerts travel the globe to sold out crowds. Not only is it a great way to connect with other gamers in the community but it also is an incredible experience that you won’t soon forget. Let me tell you about my experience with a recent video game concert that I went to not too long ago and the impact it had on me.
Kingdom Hearts Orchestra World of Tres World Tour
To help celebrate the launch of Kingdom Hearts III earlier in the year, the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra concert series went on tour all over the world with a brand-new program—Kingdom Hearts Orchestra World of Tres. Luckily one of the stops was here in Toronto and I had the esteemed pleasure of attending.
The orchestra and choir were composed of more than 100 musicians who put on a stunning performance. The live orchestra included woodwinds, brass, piano, percussion and other instruments. The concert started with spectacular renditions of iconic music from the Kingdom Hearts franchise. To add even more impact, behind the orchestra and choir was a large screen. It showed gameplay footage in perfect harmony with the music.
However, the highlight of the concert was when the orchestra played music from Kingdom Hearts III. They went chapter by chapter through out the game. You could hear many people in the audience humming along, and were cheering and clapping at the end of every piece. Not only did several of the songs send chills down my spine but they also brought back fond memories and times when I was playing the game. It’s like the moments were frozen in time and by listening to the music I could replay them as many times as I wanted.

The Last Of Us has a phenomenal soundtrack. It really represents the melancholy atmosphere of a world that’s taken into ruin with simple guitar motifs and excellently timed music in the set pieces.

It’s pretty old now, but the original Quake soundtrack by Trent Reznor still gives me chills. It really sets up the tone of the game and makes the entire experience far more terrifying!
Star wars battlefront 2. why….? Its Star Wars. I really shouldn’t have to say more than that. But it is just a classic sound track and fits so well with the game.
Super Mario as it is fun music and sounds really good
I like the tracks in Far Cry: Blood dragon.
I don’t play game, but according to my son, the best game is Devil May Cry 5, because the music gives you more motivation and action to play !
NHL 19
I am not sure it is the best soundtrack, but the eerie music in Halo brings back so many memories!
Super Mario because it’s upbeat and happy
Super Mario Kart, because my kid likes it and so do I
Definitely Mirror’s Edge. Fits the energy and dynamics of the game perfectly, with several key emotional moments in between. I even use it as an anchor for my own free running.
So, as the only video game I play is Dr Mario (which I do like the soundtrack that comes with it as it makes me bop to the beat) I asked my teen boy what he likes as he plays everything! It would be anything Kirby but Planet Robobot the most . He loves the techiness to the music and can often be found listening to it. He says there’s something about the Kirby music period that makes him listen to it or move as he plays the game.
