Mark Langford sounds a little tired, and you can’t blame him.

As Managing Director of Gametraders, Langford’s company is at the forefront of another street date drama.

This video is like eating an entire bag of sherbet at once. It seems like a good idea at the time, but it just makes your brain explode and gives you an ulcer. This video is a bit like that. It takes an old classical song and uses sounds from Ocarina of Time to recreate the music. I think I have a headache… More »
