What are you listening to? [VGM Edition]

Post by Xeogred »

LINKS TO MUSIC:
http://www.zophar.net/music.html - Lots of videogame music rips and plugins
http://project2612.org/index.php - Genesis VGM archive (arguably better than GYM)
http://forums.ffshrine.org/f72/my-osts- ... nks-34462/ - Insanely huge collection of everything

-------------------

JT endorsed this so I hope it's cool! I figure a lot of us here are into old videogame music and all, I'm always up for discovering more and some awesome games that way myself.

I guess for starters... how about Crusader No Regret: Main Theme

I really wish the MOD format lasted longer. Unreal and Deus Ex used the same format, among other games!

And randomly if you guys haven't heard of SSH, check him out. Thanks to brunoafh for getting me into this guy... it's insanity.

I'll just repost this since it's still valid

The old version of Treasure Trove Cove doesn't even remotely resemble the final one

Then there's all the old Project Dream music too, most of which was reworked by the time Banjo Kazooie came about. It's all neat stuff.

I take back all the crap I've said about Castlevania II: Simon's Quest. It was all worth it for this guitar solo (even the part about ducking by the cliffs)

I always thought this was amazing. Another one man band video, which JT's posts reminded me of.

Mega Man X 3 boss theme (Epic! Too bad it's just a loop though)

One of my fave levels from Wet and I love the heavy metal music they used for it. It's a perfect fit for the stage. This is one of the coolest video games levels ever from an otherwise fairly mediocre game.
