Besides the use of this technique, Pilotwings is particularly notable for its futuristic rock score by Soyo Oka of Ice Hockey and Super Mario Kart fame, and Koji Kondo of Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Bros. fame, with Sting-like reggae and experimental whole-tone scale influences. The score experienced some revival of attention in the international music community when Sir Paul McCartney expressed his admiration for Kondo in an interview, and when studies of several movements were published by Internet commentators and musicians Matthew Dean and Michael Rich.

however, their suckitude and ineptness can be covered by the still immature critical language of games.

But when this transfers over to a form of media with several decades of critical history, it's even more glaring.

totally.

there's nothing worse than a movie review written like it's a game review.

Enh, that's only for joke reviews, like for Doom.

I'm talking about when games folks try to cover music or something.

I think it's the catholic method.

"Sting-like reggae" could be a technical term, tho. Maybe he was drawing attention to the music's reediness and absence of funk.

Or maybe he was insulting reggae.
