DARIUSBURST ANOTHER CHRONICLE Live in O-EAST -revolt- must have been amazing to actually see live. But, for those of us who couldn’t attend the show featuring the music of this extremely talented team, the event was recorded and published as an album via Enterbrain.
I wanted to write about this album for awhile now, and because baiyon’s contribution from WONDER WORLD is used in the show, I have my excuse. So, after the jump, my review of DBAC Live in O-East! (more…)
When people talk about getting back to basics in gameplay, Space Invaders is one of those basics that immediately comes to mind. Infinity Gene, the latest title in the Space Invader series, succeeds in breaking things down to reach a new conclusion. Evolution through minimalism.
Taito’s music composer COSIO notes that “the sound ended up being considerably more minimalist than that of any other shooting game out there” as a result of taking a diverging path away from other shooters. Graphic designer Reisuke Ishida also states that “the sound is an inseparable part of the whole Infinity Gene concept. Without COSIO’s music, the game’s world falls apart, incomplete.”
While the iPhone version of Infinity Gene received a soundtrack release (ZTTL-9020) in August 2009, Taito is now releasing an updated soundtrack called -Evolutionary Theory- to include the new songs made for the Xbox 360/PS3 versions of the game. This would be the most complete album to buy if you happened to skip the previous release.
Let’s take it for a spin, shall we? (more…)
