darksnowman Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 how about we have a chat about songs that pushed the old sytems to their limits.. Nothing springs to mind. Got any more examples? Does anyone else listen to the 1UP music podcast that Ray Barnholt does, called the Sound Test? Its not a very long podcast and always has some great content. Star Soldier - Power Up Time Audio I've also discovered the Scott Pilgrim game soundtrack through it. The whole thing seems to be on YouTube and is well worth listening to. Its a mix of rock and some great chiptuned music. Audio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lillster Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Pokey Means Business* Audio That is quality boss music right there! His proper name is Porky, but the translation got messed up. That's why his called Pokey in Earthbound/Mother 2 and Porky in Mother 3 - which is a quality game by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyson Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Some bonus Wipeout stuff too: I loved the soundtrack as a kid, and still have fond memories of the game itself. Way ahead of its time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lillster Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Just wondering, to those who listened to the Earthbound track I posted earlier, did you at least listen past the 1min mark? The 8-bit chip tune is just the intro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnas Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 (edited) For those paying attention to the Gentlemen's mafia, you already know I'm using music (mostly from videogames) to spice up the write-ups. And such an activity reminded me of the excellent, excellent, Soul Calibur II soundtrack. Brave Sword, Braver Soul Audio No Turning Back Audio Eternal Struggle Audio Sword of the Patriot Audio And my favourite, Confrontation Audio Edited November 20, 2010 by Jonnas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonnas Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 The voice clips are excellenter. Well then, let us dance! "Even beasts know when to give up" "Come with me to hell!" "It will rain blood today!" "This rod will be your doom!" "Namu..." "Grsggshstssjh..." "SOULS!" Good lines, cheesy lines, silly lines. SCII has it all.

Aimless Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Here's a symphonic Secret of Mana medley: Audio Well, most of it; it's actually 17:40 in length. You can find the rest on YouTube, but more importantly it comes from the S-E sanctioned Symphonic Fantasies CD — it also features Kingdom Hearts, Chrono Trigger/Cross and Final Fantasy mixes.

mcj metroid Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) Now related but still Audio how about we have a chat about songs that pushed the old sytems to their limits.. Nothing springs to mind. Got any more examples? This is an NES title from 1991 only released in japan. Listen to the sound did you ever think a nes could do this? Truth is its a chip that was added to the cartridge and if the NES had more life in it other games would have used this.. Shame really would have love to have seen more use it.
