Rather than play short outtakes from the soundtrack, the concept behind this series is to play lengthier samples with added visuals to provide some context. The visuals are either directly from in-game recordings and cutscenes, or from promotional material such as trailers (including live-action trailers). Occasionally, the visuals are from a related game, such a sequel or prequel. By editing the visuals to coincide with the musical cues, I hope it's also more entertaining to watch.

It's also worth noting that I, admittedly, am biased towards more modern soundtracks and, old-school themes, although certainly classic and great for their time, will have a harder time finding their way on to this series. There are plenty of lists that include classic gaming themes so think of this as a breath of fresh air! And again, this list is ongoing to feel free to recommend any soundtrack. I do check them out.

  • @Droid5767 Yeah the credits song from Freespace 2 is a masterpiece.
