Seeing how WPR has managed to land an interview with one of the more amazing groups in gaming music, I think it’s only right to devote a whole damn week to their work. Ladies and gentlemen, this is day one of Minibosses week at WPR.
Today’s song is a medley from the classic NES platformer Wizards and Warriors. I don’t really recall if you can find this on any of their studio albums or if its on any of the live albums either, but nevertheless you can easily find anything you want on YouTube. However if you really want to support this band (they’ve got kids to feed too you know!) check out their website HERE to order some gear or download some of their harder to find songs.
This track got picked mainly because Wizards and Warriors is a pretty obscure game which I’d warrant that many of the so-called retro gamers never dove into. Prove me wrong in the comments below.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
