Stelios tagged me so here is my iPhone 4 home screen. I am supposed to pass the torch to someone else, so my brother will take it from here.

Computer Games and Music

Here follows a list of some of my favorite computer games themes.

Diablo 1 by Blizzard Entertainment. Released in early 1997, this game took the concepts laid out by Nethack, Rogue, Angband and the rest and run with them. Truly amazing game. The Tristram village theme is an epic, wonderful tune. Youtube video

The Curse of Monkey Island, by LucasArts, released in 1997. An amazing adventure game, packed with wonderful moments and great characters. Masterful. Youtube video

The Legend of Zelda, by Nintendo. Zelda games are widely regarded as the best games ever devised, for a good reason. Youtube video

Agony, by Art & Magic/Psygnosis. This is one of the most incredible shoot'em'ups to come out for the Amiga. You are Alestes turned into an owl, flying through surreal backgrounds trying to make it to the end. Youtube video

Turrican by Factor 5, Loriciels and others. Chris Hülsbeck composed the music for this great shoot'em'up. Youtube video

The Elder Scrolls IV:Oblivion by Bethesda Softworks. This game didn't leave up to the hype, though it certainly is a masterpiece in too many ways. I love the introductory music following the Emperor Uriel Septim VII's monologue (voiced by Patrick Stewart). Epic and powerful. Youtube video

Gears of War promotional 'Mad World' video. Epic released a promotional video featuring Marucs Fenix and Gary Jule's Mad World(originally by Tears for Fears). This video led me to buying an Xbox 360 just to play tis game. Epic. Youtube video

Bard's Tale 1 - Tales of the Unknown, Volume I by Interplay. I was so addicted to playing this game, drawing maps, questing and exploring dungeons and Skara Brae. A legendary game. Youtube video
