GamingWolf<p><a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/VGMWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VGMWednesday</span></a> The final battle against a recent evil, so you've mowed down a ton of Nazis and reclaimed the so-called Spear of Destiny. What you don't know is that the level quickly transitioned and a sinister tune begins to play.</p><p>The walls are red, possibly drenched in the blood of countless innocent victims, then you discover to your horror a legion of ghosts. You can shrug them off with a few bullets but they will operate again very shortly like a Dry Bones. Kill counts and points become absolutely irrelevant but there's plenty of supplies around, now why would that be.</p><p>That's when you find out a demon was guarding it. Perhaps you are being tested? If you know your biblical history, this spear pierced a bit of JESUS CHRIST while he was about to be crucified. Damn.</p><p>Bobby Prince Jr got inspired after listening to some German sermons if you know what I mean.</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBjOI_PtvG0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=LBjOI_PtvG</span><span class="invisible">0</span></a></p><p>"You may wield the Spear"</p>

It's almost triggering, flipping a switch in your brain from whatever mode you are in to return to whatever phase in life you where in when you first played a Game Boy. </p><p>Is also showcases one of the selling points of the Game Boy--stereo headphone audio!

Maddy Waves<p>🇬🇧 Since April 20th was not only the 35th anniversary of the <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/FireEmblem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FireEmblem</span></a> series, but also the 20th anniversary of FE: Path of Radiance, I found myself thinking back to this wonderful game again. In honor of this occasion, let me share an absolute gem from PoR's <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/soundtrack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>soundtrack</span></a> for <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/VGMWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VGMWednesday</span></a>: Life Returns!<br>Also known as the Galdr of Rebirth, it plays during the credits as well - and you can just picture the herons singing this ethereal, hauntingly beautiful song! 😊<br> <br>🇩🇪 Da der 20. April nicht nur das 35. Jubiläum von Fire Emblem war, sondern auch das 20. Jubliläum von FE: Path of Radiance, musste ich wieder an dieses wundervolle Spiel zurückdenken. Zu Ehren dieses Anlasses möchte ich zum <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/VGM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VGM</span></a> Wednesday einen absolute Perle aus PoRs Soundtrack mit euch teilen: Life Returns!<br>Der Song, auch bekannt als Galdr der Wiedergeburt, spielt auch während der Credits - und man kann sich buchstäblich die Reiher vorstellen, wie sie dieses traumhaft schöne, himmlisch klingende Lied singen! 😊<br> <br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g3qY0GpJB0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=4g3qY0GpJB</span><span class="invisible">0</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaming</span></a></p>

Ishambard<p>So, considering I have been playing Radia Senki recently, a JRPG, I think it is a foregone conclusion on what music I will pick from this game for <a href="https://cupoftea.social/tags/VGMWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VGMWednesday</span></a></p><p>If you took the punt and said the 『Battle Theme』you're absolutely right. If you play this game, you will be hearing this track A LOT. The encounter rate in this game can vary from a full length of a corridor to you raised your pinkie finger. At least the battles are relatively engaging with the real time combat, maybe I should say forcibly engaging 😅<br>But this isn't the venue for discussing gameplay! Back to the music.</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/hKjZPcm-y3Q?si=8FK6l7omwXcy6GZQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">youtu.be/hKjZPcm-y3Q?si=8FK6l7</span><span class="invisible">omwXcy6GZQ</span></a></p><p>Is it as good as the Final Fantasy battle theme... No. But it is still an appropriately energetic piece. I encourage people to check out other parts of the OST as it is.
