I love that Japan takes game music seriously. Its singles and albums rank up there right alongside pop and rock, and in music stores you’ll find them in the same racks.
Sony is also taking game music seriously. They’ve announced a service called PlayStation Game Music for Japan. It lets users stream first and third-party PlayStation game music to mobile devices.
Andriasangsays that the service launches with content fromFinal Fantasy XIII-2, Monster Hunter, Dynasty Warriorsand theYakuzaseries. There’s also sound effects to get down to.
It’s too bad that there’s not a similar effort here. The closest thing we have is my wonderfulAOL Radio Video Game Scoresstation.
