"While most of MAGfest XI entailed me nerding out during videogame music cover bands, meeting new people and attending some fantastic panels, I did have the honor of interviewing veteran game composer Kinuyo Yamashita of Castlevania and Mega Man X3 fame.
Kinuyo and I chatted about a bunch of things, including how big videogame music has gotten over the years, her influences and style for some of her more well-known compositions and the official answer regarding that “Neon Tiger” track from Mega Man X3.
Special thanks goes to Maho Azuma for translating and MAGfest’s Nick Marinelli for coordinating the interview."

During the Dead By Daylight Year 8 Anniversary event, it was revealed that a new collaboration with Castlevania is coming to the game.
Konami's highly rare Castlevania: The Arcade has finally been preserved, and everyone can soon get to play it for free.
The Last of Us, Castlevania, and Arcane are actually good. What else could be good?
I think the games would need to have a strong narrative or lots of lore to explore to make a good show. I don't understand why Overwatch doesn't make one, Blizzards cinematics are already amazing, why not just make some shows with their stuff?
For me:
- Sleeping Dogs (I know Donnie Yen's making a film)
- Killzone (from the Helghast perspective)
- Mass Effect
- BioShock (showing the rise and fall of Rapture)
- Hitman
- L.A. Noire
Killzone, mass effect, bioshock and legacy of kain would all be insane as TV shows with the right budget!
Would love that so much!
Add MGS to that list :)
I would prefer a Killzone game from the Earth perspective, just because I think the slow realization that the protagonists are actually antagonists is great… idk if it would have the same impact vice versa.
Maybe, idk. I feel like since the Helghast look evil but are actually the victims it could make for unique and compelling TV.
Mafia series
Hitman
Mass Effect (if done similar to Star Trek)
Red Dead Redemption
Detroit Becoming Human
Max Payne
Yakuza
Hitman would be great - like a reverse Law & Order, kill them at the end instead of arrest.
