	Encyclopedia: Xenogears
		In computer games and video games, single-player refers to the variant of a particular game where input from only one player is expected throughout the course of the gaming session.
		Examples of these alleged flaws are the overabundance of cutscenes, deficient game mechanics (such as linear gameplay and change of style on the second disc), and the extensive usage of allusions to Judeo-Christian religious jargon.
		The most obvious allusion involves the nature of the game's protagonist, Fei Fong Wong, whose Freudian ego, superego, and id are discussed at length throughout the course of the game.

		The Symphonic Game Music concert in Leipzig, Germany disproved that notion.
		We knew we needed to hold the concert alongside an established event, ideally one that was connected to the games industry.
		However, because Czech Orchestras are popular among game music recordings, a few of the players in the orchestra were already familiar with several of the scores, which made the rehearsals somewhat easier.

	Video game music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Arcade games in the 70s often contained music of some sort, but it was typically monotone and so indistinct that it was easily dismissed and parodied.
		The Super NES was another evolutionary step in the progress of video game music technology, but a critical one that made it much easier for developers to put music people would actually want to listen to into their games.
		Games for the PC such as Republic: The Revolution have utilised sophisticated systems known as incidental music to string together short phrases based on the action on screen and the player's most recent choices.

	SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Features -- Classic crossover
		High-powered game consoles and healthy revenues are inspiring game-makers to splurge on music, hiring pop stars and entire orchestras to create scores as ambitious as those for some movies.
		Whether or not game music can attract droves of the uninitiated to symphonic concerts, it's clear that to the latest generation of game fans, music – of whatever kind – is a big part of the playing experience.
		With all the cross-fertilization going on now between the music and game worlds, though, it wouldn't be surprising to see rock acts start inserting a few game tunes into set lists, or even adventurous orchestras salting their programs with the work of composers like Uematsu.

		They just weren’t accustomed to seeing this kind of music on their stands and unfortunately, I don’t think that our conductor had ever been exposed to this fairly common film genre and, as such, he was completely at a loss.

	Places to Go, People to Be Issue 25: An interview with Erick Wujcik.
		It was a little different than the usual parlour version of the game, in that each student/player joined political groups representative of the WWI era governments, so France had a 14-member Parliament that voted on the movement of each army, while Germany consisted of just a Kaiser, two Generals and an Admiral.
		Personally, I love role-playing, and gaming, and people generally enjoy my talks, so that was pretty typical for me. On the other hand, Australia was only the second place I've ever visited where I also addressed various government officials who wanted to hear what I had to say about the growth of the games industry.
		Considering that the electronic games industry, according to most experts, is now larger than the film industry, I'd certainly label it as a 'big growth field.' In fact, I've seen figures that estimate that up to US$77 billion will be the worldwide annual take for gaming within ten years.

		But when the high school freshman recently discovered that a show featuring music from the computer game "Final Fantasy" would be playing near his suburban Chicago home, he could hardly believe it.
		This latest tour — called "Dear Friends, the Music from Final Fantasy" — pushes the boundaries further by featuring music that, while largely unknown to classical or mainstream music listeners, is huge among computer gamers.
		And while some classical music buffs might roll their eyes, to them, the music's creator, 55-year-old Japanese composer Nobuo Uematsu, is on par with any rock star.
