What defines a musical game? Videogames, and RPGs especially, are known for using a musical score to enhance the experience, so what parameters really define "musical games" and make their use of music especially notable? Today, our Rhythm panel is going on a journey to look at a wide variety of music that we feel fits into this category to tease out some of those important factors that mark a truly musical game. A game probably doesn't have to take place in the mind of an ailing composer from our reality and include many facts about his life to be considered a musical game, but it also doesn't hurt. We also consider musical gameplay elements, games with musician characters, and interactive music in games.Featuring: Hilary Andreff, Patrick Gann, Wes Iliff, Jono Logan; Edited by Jono LoganLinks for this episodeYouTube: EXEC_PAJA/.#Orica extracting (Ar tonelico) - English lyricsYouTube: Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore - Dream☆Catcher music videoTracklist0:11:37 - A Pirate I Was Meant to Be (Michael Land) - The Curse of Monkey Island0:16:08 - The Overture 2 (Pytor Illyich Tchaikovsky) - LOOM: Game Soundtrack0:39:57 - Difficult Love Puzzle (Tenpei Sato, vocal Kaoru Fujino) - Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure0:44:40 - Dream☆Catcher (KOH) - Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE1:00:32 - Train Train (Lynda Carter, John Jarvis & Kerry Marx) - Fallout 41:02:42 - Setting Sail, Coming Home (Darren Korb) - Bastion1:24:06 - Your truth is my false (Motoi Sakuraba) - Eternal Sonata1:27:16 - EXEC_PAJA/.#Orica (comp/arr/vocal Akiko Shikata) - Ar tonelico: Melody of Elemia2:00:16 - Pat's Bonus Track!Album links for places to buy, stream, and more are available in our post on RPGFan.Get in Touch:RPGFan.comRPGFan ShopEmail us: [email protected]: @rpgfancomInstagram: @rpgfancomFacebook: rpgfancomTwitch: rpgfancom
