For Bloodworth, I'm genuinely curious to know how you listen to soundtracks of games you haven't played and judge them. In the podcast you say "I still have to listen to a few". Do you put them on as background music? Sit down with headphones on and listen? Do you listen to the whole soundtrack or just some songs? Do you watch a video or trailer of the game to try understand the context of the music? Or are you judging it just on its merits as a piece of music? I don't think there are many people out there who listen to full soundtracks of games they haven't played. You have probably given short or full answers on this in previous GOTY discussions, but I can't remember. Could you please make a post about it or let me know how you approach it? Keep up the good work. Sean

Generally however I can. A good many soundtracks are available to purchase or on streaming platforms. We often capture music for review, so I can go back into our drive folders to listen to those selections. And yeah, in some cases, I'll absolutely check out the game itself just for the sake of hearing how the music is implemented in context. -Bloodworth

Thanks for the quick reply. Have a great weekend. Fave soundtrack ever? Or something in your top 3 that I can listen to? Or you have a Spotify playlist I can sub to?
