SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs - Shorter Days, Wondrous Nights Edition
This past weekend in Central City was the time where all citizens turned their clocks back one hour. That means sunset arrives much earlier than it did previously. Regardless, SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs' sleeping pattern is unaffected, and the good tunes that I share with you go on unabated! This week you and I can listen to songs from Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, Okami, and Drakengard 3! If this week's selection of VGMs isn't enough for you, check out my VGM Database for over 700 more individual themes from an abundant array of video games!
v736. Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (PSP) - The Price of Freedom
Played at a pivotal moment in the Final Fantasy VII prequel Crisis Core on the PlayStation Portable, this emotional rock guitar-driven theme really makes the moment it occurs in all the more special. Of course, if you've played Final Fantasy VII, the moment really isn't a spoiler at all. No more than Aerith dies... *gasp*
v737. Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City (DS) - Their Own Brand of Justice
We move on to the PSP's rival of the previous handheld generation with the Nintendo DS and the final boss theme from one of its games, Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City. Yuzo Koshiro is one of the best in the video game music composition biz, and examples like Their Own Brand of Justice proves just why!
v738. Okami (PS2, Wii) - Ryoshima Plains
Okami is a great Zelda in wolf's clothing. The team at Clover Studios really knew their stuff with each and every game they put out, and for many fans of the now-dissolved studio, Okami is one of their most revered works. A Wii port was put out on the system years after the PlayStation 2 original, adding some Wii Remote brush mechanics into the mix for some novel uses.
v739. Drakengard 3 (PS3) - The Final Song (Boss Theme)
If you don't quite understand why this boss theme of Drakengard 3 is so good, perhaps this little nugget of information will help you. The composer of Drakengard 3 is also the one who composed the music for the fantastic Nier soundtrack. Has your mind been blown? ...What do you mean you already knew that!? You clever, clever reader!
v740. 3D Dot Game Heroes (PS3) - Aqua Temple
Our final VGM of this week's edition of SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs comes from 3D Dot Game Heroes. While Okami was modeled after 3D Zeldas, 3D Dot Game Heroes was built on the 2D Zelda foundation, mostly the classic NES original. It goes into the soundtrack, too, with its retro feel and boops and beeps! Like the original Zelda, 3D Dot Game Heroes was also a game that could take you to the proverbial woodshed and give you a mighty good spanking!

SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs - Mother May I Edition
Mother's Day is this Sunday, so what does SuperPhillip Central have to share to our readers? Well, music that has nothing to do with the holiday! On this week's installment of SuperPhillip Central's Favorite VGMs we have music from Pokemon X and Y, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, and Okami to name a few! After you've given your mother a kiss on the cheek, strap yourselves in and start listening to these five video game music faves of ours!
v616. Pokemon X and Y (3DS) - Gym Leader Battle
The excitement of taking on a new gym leader in order to acquire one of the eight gym badges required to face off against the Elite Four ranks high up there with activities in Pokemon X and Y. Of course, there's no better rush of adrenaline than taking down a rare Pokemon you've been struggling with for ages and finally capturing it. And then there's the aforementioned Elite Four, obviously!
v617. Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (PSP) - A Flower Blooming in the Slums
The PSP's hardware allowed for realistic instruments to be heard from its small speakers, bringing numerous synth-only Final Fantasy VII themes into the 21st century. A Flower Blooming in the Slums is still a theme related to Aeris/Aerith (whichever you prefer) that has a beautiful yet melancholy feel to it.
v618. Okami (PS2, Wii) - Rising Sun
Okami's soundtrack is suitably Far Eastern in its influence, and that only makes sense since the game is set in fictional version of Feudal Japan. Out of all of the excellent titles to come out of the now-defunct Clover Studios, Okami is seen as one of the best and brightest games the studio delivered onto gamers.
v619. The Bouncer (PS2) - Sion Barzhad's Theme
We can't get enough of the PlayStation 2 apparently. We move onto a game that Squaresoft released close to the PlayStation 2's launch. Who knew a system that would explode in popularity and be remembered for having a brilliant library would start off so modestly? The Bouncer was a brief 3D brawler that doesn't hold up all that well today, but it still shows off some of the early power of the PlayStation 2.
v620. Sonic Riders (PS2, GCN, XBX) - Sand Ruins
Before Sonic the Hedgehog hopped into a kart and raced with the best of SEGA's all-stars, he hopped on a board and flew through the air with the Sonic Riders series. While many find a dislike for this series, we did enjoy the first two games in the series, Riders and Zero Gravity. We won't talk about the Kinect-only third installment, okay?
