It'll probably bring a smile to anyone who enjoyed Sonic 3 enough to get the final boss. |

I have roughly 74 video game tracks on my iPod. The scary thing is that I don't think it's enough. |

Matter of opinion Cat. Besides its not generic these days. Generic these days is R+B songs about b***hs, hoes, cars, bling, sexual acts, clubs etc etc. I'm quite drawn to the usually upbeat tunes Sonic has. |

I think the reason I'm drawn to video game music is because it's almost all instrumental. Screw lyrics, they add nothing that you can't get with an instrument (unless you're serenading someone). |

Most of the time we don't really care what you're saying, or even understand it. Not...necessarily. Opera for one would be crippled without singing no? And sometimes there's nothing like a good singalong, some songs actually seem designed for it. A lot of meaning can be found in lyrics for songs, meaning that without which I'd be sincerely disappointed in the song. Take Billy Joel's "Goodnight Saigon" it wouldn't be half as good lyric and voiceless, it wouldn't convey any of the trauma of the Vietnam War if it was simply music. |

^ Ah touche. Ok, well maybe I would just like some more bands to be instrumental only. Oh and to submit something. The entire soundtrack to Shadow of Collosus. Epic. |

Then it would do as simply a poem, no? And a violin is a good instument for sad music. EDIT: I don't mean to say lyrical songs totally suck. Singing is pretty much just another instrument to add to the list. So a voice is no better than a cello or trumpet. I honestly don't see why so much importance is placed into lyrics! |

^ Exactly. Take YYZ by Rush. There are no lyrics, so the emphasis is placed on the instruments. It's actually one of my favorite rock songs. Anyway, I have both the Iji (rock/metal/electric) and Cave Story (nostalgic bleeps and bloops) soundtracks on my MP3 player. |

For that matter, Billy Joel's We Didn't Start the Fire. Without vocals, none of its purpose would carry through. Even some video game music needs lyrics to express its meaning. For example, almost every lyricized song from the Ace Combat Series. A Brand New Day plays when you finally bring down the Chandelier. The war is over, the sun is rising. It is a brand new day. In Ace Combat 5, The Journey Begins is sung by the soldiers of each of the allies in the last mission, declaring their unity in this final fight. Also, as you fight the last dogfight and destroy the superweapon, SOLG, The Unsung War, which tells the Legend of Razgriz in Latin, plays, highlighting the player's role as the Demon of Razgriz, bringer of death and great hero. As much as the music is important, so can the lyrics be. |

@Gigahand: Sure it could've been a poem but it wouldn't quite have worked. When you get to the part where the soldiers join in singing "And we would all go down together" it's a chorus to add extra power and a sense of togetherness and brotherhood among the soldiers of the Vietnam war. Choruses have no place in poems like that therefore a literal written version as a poem is NOT the same. It would need to be a song for effect. |

While I'm thinking about it, the song played in the We Are ODST trailer for Halo 3: ODST. It sings about the brotherhood and camaraderie the ODSTs have. How they fight our war together and such. Lyrics are just as important as music. |

Just got the Persona remake for the PSP. Maybe it's just me, but the music is pretty bland in comparison with 3 and 4. Maybe because they are just bite sized tracks, or that I need the context of the game with them, but nothing seems to jump out at me like the soundtrack for P3 and P4. |

I've been listening to a lot of video game music lately. Singles Simple and Clean - Utada Hikaru Pokemon XD Battle Theme Dolf's Theme (Tuff E Nuff) Rei's theme (Tuff E Nuff) Albums The legand of Zelda: Orcarina Of Time TWEWY Soundtrack Puchi Carat Soundtrack PW: AA Soundtrack Gyakuten meets orchestra 2008 Ace Attorney Orchestra Ace Attorney Jazz Cadenza JFA soundtrack T&T soundtrack AJ Soundtrack GK soundtrack Pokemon Red/Blue version soundtrack Pokemon Gold/Silver version soundtrack Pokemon Pearl/Diamond version soundtrack And the odd game tune lying around. And I like some of the themes in Super Smash and Donkey Kong. |

The court themes were much more dramatic, the cornered theme was better, and not to mention some great character themes (Valant, Lamriror, Klavier and Trucy's) music > Circus music (Moe's). If JFA ups AJ's music in any category, it might be the reminesce music. |

The musical quality is better but the composition is MUCH better and more adrenaline fueled. In fact I think plain old Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney has the best music of all. |

GS1 had the best cornered theme. GS2 was bad. GS3 had the best Allegro Cross-Examination. GS4 kind of sucked. |

Post subject: | Re: Videogame Music |
Er. I actually like JFA's cornered theme most... But not its crossexamination theme.... The first game had my second favorite crossexamination theme although I don't like its objection theme too much because it's not as catchy as the others... T&T had the best crossexamination theme and the best objection theme to me... Apollo Justice had OK themes except for its cornered theme....it sounded cool but could've used some work..... And I've heard some of GK's music and I really don't know what to say... |

I like the AAI's music from what I've heard (which is extremely not much) I heard the cornered variation and the music from the trailer and if the rest is anything like that I'm going to like it. I like the sorta upbeat jazz vibes I got from it. |
Author: | Yaragorm [ Sun Oct 11, 2009 7:00 pm ] |
Post subject: | Re: Videogame Music |
Well I like its cornered, objection, and announce the truth themes....but the rest of what Ive heard is a bit........lacking....but I guess I can't judge until I've actually heard the music while playing the game to feel its true impact..... |

The stuff from the Mother (Earthbound in America) series is heart-wrenching. It's actually very good, considering the series was made for the GBA. It definitely spurted forth my inner emotions. |

But yeah, Mother 3's music is simply amazing. For my own contribution I submit the entire soundtrack to Iji. The emotional parts work well, while everything else is KICK BUTT METAL!!!...or techno/electronica. |
