Michael Giacchino: behind the music behind the games |
Ó
You probably don't know him, but Michael Giacchino composed the music score for many all-time favorite games, not to mention TV shows and movies. He composed the score for "Mission: Impossible," "Lost," "Alias," "The Incredibles," and the yet unreleased and newest "Star Trek" movie.Giacchino will be composing the score of the new video game based on TV's "Lost." He's also behind the music for the Medal of Honor franchise, including the latest release in the series: Medal of Honor Airborne.
With the recent announcement of his involvement in MoH Airborne, in a recent interview by John Gaudiosi of GameDaily.Biz, Michael expressed his feelings and experiences towards the gaming industry.
When he first started he couldn't find a proper niche between the movie industry and the gaming industry. The two didn't mesh properly before. He even freely expressed how early games based on movies either sounded nothing like the movie, or was an "approximate rip-off" of the movie. Back then, Hollywood didn't care much for gaming, but everything's different now.
He remembers the time when games still ran on stereo 8-bit sound. He actually chose to return to the Medal of Honor series because it makes full use of the new technology, allowing games to play music as it would in a real theater and, of course, for EA LA's ability to tell a story. Says Giacchino:
I was amazed at the level of detail in the technology but also in the storytelling EA had always gone to great lengths in telling great stories within their video games. But in this one it seemed like they went further. They really do care about the story and that is not always prevalent at video game companies. That's an area where a lot of them are still evolving.
So when you start playing Medal of Honor Airborne, take some time to appreciate the music and look back on how much the gaming industry has progressed. Medal of Honor Airborne will be released on August 24 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Please read this, you will be excited. When you click this link, http://000url.com/money you will go to a website that will show you how to sign up for another website that pays you 2 - 45$ (PER) to do surveys, sign up for trial offers, and test products.
Companies such as ebay pay CC to have people try their offers, and when you complete an offer, CC simply passes the money onto you. By spending an average of 3-4 hours a week on cascrate,
I have made 472$ in May, 412$ in June, and 271$ (SO FAR) in July. You get paid in real checks from "***** MEDIA" every month that you earn 10 dollars or more. It may seem too good to be true,
but I assure you it IS true. Also, with their referral program, you can refer people by sending them your link (you get when you sign up) and for every buck they earn, you get 20 cents also! (Think how much money you can make if you have 100 people making five bucks a day)
You do not have to enter your credit card or social security number. Nothing Harmful can come from CC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE 18 OR OLDER, I AM 15 YEARS OLD AND REFERRING PEOPLE, AND I MAKE THIS MUCH MONEY A MONTH
JUST SPENDING A COUPLE MINUTES A DAY ON THE COMPUTER! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR READING THIS.
Think it's a scam? Read this(from the website) "We assure you that this is not a scam! Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay money to have them do so.
Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!"
There are alot of websites like this, I have tried almost all of them and this really is the best, and legit one.In addition there is a new UK section opened with more then $200 worth of free offers!
[NO AGE REQUIREMENT, NO CREDIT CARD, NO DETAILED INFORMATION, AND YOU DONT HAVE TO GIVE A SINGLE PENNY!]
