New Trend?

[Anonymous Cumshot]

Are we seeing a new trend of appreciation for videogame music here on slashdot? In the past week there has been at least three articles on the topic.

First Nintendo Acapella [slashdot.org], then the Video Game Pianist [slashdot.org], now this.

I for one welcome our new video-game-music-appreciating overlords.

Myst music...

Some of the music from the original Myst was amazing. Anybody know if it was original to the game? If so, kudos to the composer (and if not, kudos too I guess...)

I actually heard some music from Chrono Cross the other day on the weather channel, quite surprising.
