【Triple Play episode 5 season 1 - Joe and Mandi】

If you're a little bored in your commute and Triple Play episode 5 season 1 - Joe and Mandicraving some cinematic cutscene vibes for your Main Character Energy, hitting play on a video game score is a neat hack.

Luckily for you, Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) just added a bunch of iconic game soundtracks to Spotify. Spotted by AniPlaylist and reported by Eurogamer, SIE has added the scores for '90s, '00s, and '10s PlayStation favourites like Kow Otani's Shadow of the Colossusscore, Kohei Tanaka's whimsical Gravity Rushscore, Michiko Naruke's tumbling score for Wild Arms, Yoshiyuki Sahashi and Tetsuo Ishikawa's score for PoPoLoCrois Monogatari, and a whole host more.

It's not impossible though unlikely people who haven't played these games will get as much out of the scores as those who have spent hours roaming and wandering about their worlds."Sound is incredibly important in video games, both for conveying information and influencing the player's mood," writes Mashable's Amanda Yeo.

Music truly shapes the way we play video games, as Kellen Beck wrote for Mashable, "Visuals and interactivity form the essential core of games, but the third component, sound, and specifically music, transforms games into something beyond an activity. Music can turn games into unforgettable experiences."'
