On this very special episode of GameFellas, we give you: HEAVY METAL! That's right, an episode devoted almost entirely to heavy metal music in video games. We first start with a brief segment on what we've been playing, followed by our favorite video game metal tracks. We then move onto our "name that tune" segment where Derik, Sorren and Tony are tasked with naming that video game metal track. What about you? Can you name that tune?
This is our biggest episode yet and features over 20 tracks from various musicians and even some cover tracks done specifically for this episode by my friend and frequent collaborator Julian V. Feel free to play along with the game show segment and let us know what tracks you recognize in the comments. You can find a list of every artist featured and where to find them below.
Games discussed:
Lovers In a Dangerous Spacetime, Final Fantasy 1-3 (NES), Monopoly (Switch), Megaman Games, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 (Switch), Mario Kart Tour, Tanzer (Genesis), Dodonpachi 2
