JRPG Music Album Released
You can now buy the award winner game-music concert Symphonic Fantasies Tokyo on iTunes.
Brought to you by Merregnon Studios, there’s music from Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger to enjoy.
The album was recorded by the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra and Chorus infront of 5,000 fans over two nights. Yoko Shimomura, composer of the Kingdom Hearts games, called Symphonic Fantasies Tokyo “a wonderful experience – I cannot imagine a higher appreciation of my work,” while legendary Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu commented “for me, Symphonic Fantasies Tokyo is one of the productions that has advanced and refined game music as a genre.”
It would make the perfect Christmas gift for JRPG fans.

Hi all, I'm Dan 'Nailz' Naylor, News Editor for the site (and I've just realised there's a pleasing alliteration to that). Almost all the news posts you see on the site are either by me or written because I say so, and we try to make them a little more interesting than a regurgitated press release so I hope you think we're succeeding.
Normally I'll be sinking my time into the latest RPG, but I'll play almost anything, with racing games a particular favourite. Owner of a Wii U, I have no regrets purchasing the console, though Smash Bros. hasn't left the disc tray since Christmas.
You can find me on Twitter and PSN as MacShanks, and feel free to hit me up if you have any questions, queries or feedback!
