Music In Video Games: Calamari Inkantation(Splatoon)

Splatoon had its last splatfest last week, making me go back and play the game again in a while, being the first and last splatfest I played it really made me glad this song was playing in the battles because it instantly reminded me why I liked this game in the first place it really hyped me up just as the second part of that final boss did, something about this song brings up the crazy colorful world of Splatoon and it just reminds me of how great this shooter actually is. Always awesome when a game has their own personal soundtrack like this. Hope this last Splatfest wasn't the last support the game was getting but if it was it is a hell of a way to say good bye with the vote of which squid sister is the best, even so this game is still one of the most interesting and original shooters out there by far.  Alternative Link

While Spectre is a hit and miss for many people something most people can agree on is the fantastic opening scene that is tied with an exhilarating different version of the classic Bond song. Not only does the scene looks amazing but the song add a very unique feeling to this particular scene, making this opening easily the best part of the whole movie.  Here you have the song only: Alternative Link Here you have the scene : Alternative Link
