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.

From the opening soundtrack, in game effects and closing theme, it’s definitely HALO. Okay, let’s all hum along with the symphony….. oooooo, oooo oo
Doom (2016). Mick Gordon is a master and I could listen to that soundtrack all day.
Tony Hawk Pro Skater series. Brings back lots of nostalgia.
Dragon’s Quest 11. The opening credits sounds like an orchestra and the game is like a SNES throwback. Loved it!!
Super Mario!
I think that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has the best soundtrack because of it’s variety – listeners can really feel the adrenaline rush of being chased my monsters and of fighting bosses; the serenity of the fishing hole, etc.
Definitely Grand Theft Auto because it gives you some options.
I really love the soundtrack from Far Cry 3. For such a graphic and brutal game, the soundtrack is surprisingly pretty mellow and haunting. If you haven’t heard it, take a listen!
I love Super Mario.
My favourite soundtrack is the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack. Just listen to Gusty Gardens Galaxy! It’s perfect.
Super Mario!
The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening Dreamer Edition. Zelda is my fave game soundtrack since, the legend never dies.
Definitely, Grand Theft Auto because I can choose what stations I want to listen to so don’t have to hear the same soundtrack over and over
Super Mario is the best
Grand theft auto – Sand Andreas. Best soundtrack out there by far.
Super Mario by far!!
Grand Theft Auto has the best soundtrack and i can change it if i want.

I think grand theft auto has the best sound track because I get to change the stations and pick what i would listen to.
I think Sonic the Hedgehog is the best soundtrack because the beat and rhythm is great
Grand Theft Auto!! Would be AWESOME for my boys! Thanks!
I like the soundtrack to the Warcraft games. Played them when they were new, still paying them now 🙂
Super Mario! Thanks for the chance
If you love classical music like I do then God of War saga is my favourite. Bear McCreary’s epic soundtrack includes contributions from an Icelandic choir, Nordic instruments like the nyckelharpa and hurdy gurdy and plenty of grumbling orchestral bass. So fantastic!!
I think that it is Super Mario!
I like Super Mario soundtrack because the beat is awesome!
I really like the Super Mario Bros soundtrack, it’s one that’s stuck in my head since I was a teen
forza horizon 4 has good driving tunes
Hi, personally Warcraft would be great i think. Thanks!!!.
I would put my dancing shoes on Smile
GTA V has the best soundtrack
I’m going with Super Mario. Brings back memories from when I was young lol.
Kingdom Hearts because most of the soundtrack consists of original themes.
Like to win this for my son . He would say fortnight for sure
Journey – The use of deep strings hit home the sense of loneliness out in the desert with rising harps raising the player’s hope. The music both portrays the adventure and beauty of the game almost effortlessly.
Sonic the hedgehog, I’m not very knowledgeable nor recognise music but I do enjoy this music since it is one of the few tunes I do recognise on hearing it.
My nephew plays Super Mario all the time, so that would make a great Christmas/Birthday present for him
All the GTA have amazing soundtracks love it
GTA V totally badd A$$
Sonic the hedgehog !!! totally full of beats
I still like the music of Minecraft – so relaxing!
nintendo super mario its awesome
I would say for original soundtracks Super Mario World or Sonic The Hedgehog as the tunes stand the test of time and instantly recognizable. But for variety I love the radio music in GTA Vice City full of classic 80’s music, San Andreas for the 90’s and Mafia 3 for the classic 60’s songs.
I think GTA V has the best soundtrack because its got so many radio stations and songs!
NHL i would like to enter the contest tks
What’s in those headsets? USB MP4 Video Gamer? Neat-oh and so cool.
Wonderful Super Mario and I do enjoy those headsets so in so what is trendy.
The prize is better than what I own so far but nevertheless they are a little huge for 2019 headsets.
FTL faster than light has the best soundtrack because it sounds very sci fi ish.
Rainbow Six Siege soundtrack! Thanks for the chance!
