Welcome to the Home of Oddly Familiar!

Have you ever been playing a game and something seemed familiar? Maybe a melody, a voice, or a character? Well, it happens to us, too! So, we started a series about it. In this series we talk about anything video game related that is familiar! They may be paying tribute/homage, inspired, or maybe even ripped off! All this means, if you ever thought something was familiar in a game, then you may find it in this series! And if you find a new song or band because of the series then it's a bonus!

- Video Game Tracks (Melodies, Themes, BGM)
- Samples used in Video Games (Voices, Instruments, Stock Sounds)
- Video Game Characters
- Inspiration, Homage, Plagiarism
