In this video called “the power of video game music” by a man that goes by the name NakeyJakey a youtuber with decent following and creates videos mainly about video games makes a video talking the musics of video games impact on the actual player and how the music creates a lasting effect on the player. And showing his points by using examples from various games and explaining how the music had its effect.

Jake begins the video by telling the audience that “video game music is kinda crazy, in the sense that it’s not like anything else..”  accompanying this statement are just various clips of video games. Jake doesn’t really use any visuals to catch his audience’s attention instead i think he’s playing into his strength and creating jokes to maintain the audience’s attention, jake uses this topic of music to create jokes by creating very bad rap using the music in the games he talking about to make his video entertaining to his audience. Throughout the video jake first mentions the music in games that tells the player the overall feeling of the game and how it positively impacts the player. For example he mentions vice city gta(a 2006 game) and how the music in that game makes him feel like scarface( a 1983 mob movie) like he’s taking part in illegal activities. He goes on to mention that music in games is also a way to let a player know what to do or what’s going to happen with outright telling the player, he mentions resident evil and how safe rooms always had the same music and how for the player its a huge relief for the player because now they know they are safe. He adds here that because the players of games spend so much time listening to the games music it will stick to the player along with the game impression and how good the game was to the player. The last way music is used in games jake mentions is the parts that come out of nowhere to make a sense more memorable. One game he mentions is Metal Gear Solid 3. Jake talks about a scene in the game where the player is spending a long time climbing a ladder to go with this scene. He added a woman singing the games theme in order to remind the player of what the whole point of the journey in games is about. One last point jake states is that “music is an insanely valuable tool especially when creating video games… music isn’t really just music anymore it is something intangible that has been stapled to your identity as a reminder of what you love to do ” here jake is trying to hammer his point that music is an important part of games because it impact the players in such a deep way.  .
