10 Incredible Video Game Composers Who Happen To Be Women

8-Bitx writes: I specifically wanted to write about women because, come on, we all know the names of our favorite male composers: Nobuo Uematsu, Yuzo Koshiro, Koji Kondo, Tim Follin, and certainly those men will go down in the history books of VGM, but as Abigail Adams famously cautioned, “Remember the ladies”, so here are 10 names that should undeniably be up there with the greats.

I hate things like this. Lets highlight that its a woman composing the music.
Or things like 5 FEMALE game designers.

Who cares about gender yes I understand its seen still as quite a male role but thats changing and I for one can't wait for the day these kind of things stop.

Also they are really good composers :)

MrDead4791d ago (Edited 4791d ago )

Women can compose music!!!???!?!

Next you'll be telling me they can walk and talk. (Sarcasm)

"Happen to be?!"

It reminds me of a George Carlin joke

"... Hey, he happens to be black.

Tell me this : Were the guy's parents black? Yes?
Okay, did they have sex? Yes? Okay.
So where does the surprise part comes in? I'd be more surprised if the guy was Scandinavian."

See? Also, no Yoko Kanno?! What in the....

It's About Time Castlevania Gets A New Game, Konami

10 years gone by without a new Castlevania title. Now that Konami is considering stuff other than Pachinko, this series deserves a new game.

It’s more than about time it’s way overdue. Please make a 2D Castlevania with item/armor/weapon collectibles and transmog as this is the one series my wife will play but it has to have item collecting or she will skip it.

Lords of shadow 1 was such an amazing game and they dropped the ball with the sequel

"What is a name? A miserable little pile of letters."

Seriously, the games in the From Software's Soulsborne series are the best 3D Castlevania games we will ever get. From Bloodborne to Elden Ring, Konami will never approach that level of quality and give Castlevania its due respect. EVER! "Enough talk, call yourself a Belmont in the Character Creator, HAVE AT YOU!" Without question.

As for a new 2D entry? I mean, sure, why not? What the hell, right? It's about damn time indeed.

I hate being that guy, but I think it’s, “What is a man? A miserable pile of secrets.”

SimpleSlave244d ago

Um, actually mine is the original line in the Script. But Konami, being Konami, decided to change it to "What is a man? A miserable 'little' pile of secrets." I know, they ruined it...

So, while I know you hate to be that guy, you still missed the "little" part. It happens.

And, yeah, I know. You're welcome.👍

@SimpleSlave

LMAO… man, thanks for the laugh. 👍

SimpleSlave243d ago (Edited 243d ago )

I'm glad you enjoyed it. On the other hand, it seems like some ppl were so offended by my Line being so OP that they decided to side with Konami. But these are the same people that bought Contra: Rogue Corps Day One and convinced themselves it was the best Contra. So I take no offense.

It happens.

Might get a Castlevania pachinko machine.
