Video Games Live - The Aftermath



Yesterday was Video Games Live. An event that i waited for a long time. And as expected, it does not disappoint.

There's so many things i can say about the event. But it was awesome from the beginning to the end. The game started with Medley of classic games and also the music from this following games (If i can remember):

-Metal Gear Solid
-God of War
-The Legend of Zelda
-Shadow of the Colossus
-Warcraft
-Metal Gear Solid 3 (Snake Eater instrumental)
-Super Mario Bros
-Halo
-Megaman
-One Winged Angel (FFVII)
-ENCORE - Castlevania
-ENCORE - Chrono Trigger/Cross

There's some mini things thrown out. Like the introduction to the First video games which to be honest i read it somewhere in a book before and it seems that the grandpa of gaming is still around and manage to talk to us via Skype. Then there's the Space Invaders contest where the winner wins an awesome table arcade game. But the contestant chosen failed to do so...

At the second half, there's a Guitar Hero contest where the winner of the contestant is challenged to play on hard, But was pressured by the audience to go Expert. He barely reach the score mentioned, though he still win the price of awesome goodies that i wish i had it.

The real kicker for me is the encore. They play 2 of my favorite game music, Castlevania and Chrono Trigger/Cross. Castlevania one is great and stuff, but i still can't believe they leave out Bloody Tears. And Chrono Trigger/Cross medley is started with my favorite track in Trigger and ended with my favorite track in Cross. Once i exit the arena, i feel like I'm alive again (lolwut). And i will attend it again next year, because they said it so.

p/s: During the Megaman Medley, Megaman II's Dr Wily Stage song. Among the people who shout 'Okusenman' was me... てへ~☆
