The Save Point – I Never Caught ‘em All

by Xopher Reed under FEATURED on Mar 5th

It was the mid 1990s when a good friend of mine got me a gift that was vastly out of my age range, but I loved the hell out of nonetheless. That game was Pokemon Blue for my Gameboy, a game which I’d still play if I could find my damn handheld in the house somewhere.

WPR Interviews – The Minibosses

by Xopher Reed under FEATURED on Jan 2nd

When someone asks me what fills up most of the space on my iPod (hey, it happens…I work with real nosy people), they’re usually shocked to learn that a good 40% of what I listen to is either videogame music or covers of videogame music. One such group that I’m proud to support and listen to is The Minibosses. Lucky for me, I’ve got this here website and access to cool people like the four chaps who comprise...

by Xopher Reed under FEATURED on Jan 2nd

It’s easy to do a year-in-review post. Hell, every big blog out there has done one either today or yesterday (depending on your timezone), but it takes a site that wants to have a bit of fun with the media we love to make a predictions post. Here is what WPR thinks we’ll see this year…maybe.

Morning Cup o’ Music

by Xopher Reed under READ on Nov 28th

It takes serious balls to say that you’re starting a band that covers nothing but old video game music and there are very few groups that do it right. This week, I hope to share a few that I listen to on a regular basis and get you to appreciate how awesome the world of gaming music really is.
