The Pit 2 SNES

The Pit 2 GENESIS

I've never played the game, but I like the SNES version better. I like how it's less polished and not quite as straight forward in the beat; gives it a more classic sound.


It made more sense in my head.

What about the arcade? Personally, I like that one the most.

It sounds like a compilation of both console versions. However I'd like it more if it was more polished I can barely here the *boom boom-BOOM BOOM-boom boom".

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

Outside of the Main theme Mirrors Edge level themes aren't too bad either. This one is my favorite particularly when it's at it's most intense unfortunately it's original track so freakin long and the part I like is damn near less then a minute before the song is over.

If interested. Heres the original.

FINALLY, the reason I like this track so much.

Even if the Ace attorney series isn't your preferred style of game, you must the music is great.

This song brings back memories. Mostly of hopping off the side of the track to attempt the shortcut, of course. Such a great song.

The Revenge of Shinobi on Mega Drive has one of the best soundtracks ever IMO. It was done by the same guy that did Streets of Rage. Like a Wind is particulary epic.

LINK

Also, the soundtrack for Tekken Tag 2 is very good, quite a few remixes from the old games.

Been chilling today with some Metroid music. I really love the first Prime game so I had to pick up the soundtrack. It might be years later after originally playing the game but it's better late than never. I don't have a whole lot of ambient or electronic music in my library but music like this is good to be out of the ordinary for me.

I'm more into chiptune than actual VG music. Some of my favorite artists are minusbaby, RushJet1, Starscream, Sievert and IAYD.

Hello one and all! No I'm not dead, and this club will not die either as long as I have a say in it. I love all the suggestions here. However I must say I am open for more discussion in this club. I still have a profile set up to store any information pertaining this club. I'm not exactly sure what to put in it though.

Been pumping that Jet Set Radio Soundtrack for months now, other OSTs too.

Jet Set Radio - Humming the Bassline

EarthBound - Smiles and Tears

No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle - Kill or be killed

Bust-A-Groove 2 - The Heat is on

Guilty Gear XX - Keep Yourself Alive II

Favourite composers, Hideki Naganuma I guess, Masaya Matsuura and Daisuke Ishiwatari also. Never gave composers much thought though, these here just made some of my favourite OSTs.


In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Well I thought that this might be fun. Let's list some of our favorite Title Screen themes. It is usually the first the song you hear in a video game and one that is supposed to wrap up the entirety of the game. I will be keeping track of people's favorites and will make a post with some of the big favorites.

List no more than five and explain why they're your favorite title screen themes. Oh yeah and it has to be the song that plays on the Title Screen. If the game has an opening cinematic theme that transcends into the title screen, then that's okay. If they're separate then they're separate, nothing more than that. So let's get started. Here are mine in no certain order.

1. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
Just the peaceful sounds of the waves and island as we slowly go into the island instruments. As it sets up a mystical jungle and a lighthearted adventure that becomes anything but. You sense the emergency, but in a subtle way instead of in your face. The image of the island on the title screen perfectly captures this song as well. It is just wonderful to sit back and listen to. Sometimes I would load up the game just to hear this song.

2. Vegas Stakes
This is a casino game made by HAL Laboratory. You know the guys behind the Super Smash Bros. games, the Kirby series, and even worked on Mother 3. Yeah they made a casino game and a damn fine one at that. That's for another story in the Video Game Forum though. What is important is the title theme. It gives you this lust for life and the possibility to make a killing in that playground of America, Las Vegas. Whenever I think of casinos or playing a game of Poker, I think of this song. It may only be 1 Minute long, but boy does it leave an impact on you.

3. Chrono Trigger
Sometimes, simplicity is your friend. The waving of a clock pendulum as the music literally brings in the title. That to me is what makes it. Not only that it sets you up perfectly, because the cinematic for the game comes after the title screen. That is just pure genius. The first time I saw this title screen I was just so amazed by it, then the cinematic came up and then the title screen again. I was pumped and ready to go. I absolutely love this song and truth be told it is barely even that. It's shorter than Vegas Stakes, but leaves a huge impression on you of the dire situations that are to come.

4. Halo
I like Halo's story and gameplay as much as the next guy. However my absolute favorite thing from this series is its music and the title theme from Halo: Combat Evolved is one of the most beautiful classical pieces to come from video games since Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI, and I will gladly stand by that statement. You want to talk about a song that will get you pumped for action? This would be the one. Hell it was reused as a rock song as one of the final missions in the game. That's pretty damn good.

5. Kingdom Hearts
The song in question here is Dearly Beloved. Interesting fact, this song was actually used at my best friend's wedding when people were being seated. This song certainly wraps up what Kingdom Hearts is about. When I got Kingdom Hearts I was expecting a goofy and fun game... which I got, but this title screen set me up for something more and I got that to. This song will always stay with me. Yes I know this song was re-done for Kingdom Hearts II and although I do like it, I just like the simplicity of this one more. It is more subtle and in this case less is more.

Damn, you're right. I've never heard that one before, but it's pretty awesome. Always cool to hear new Nintendo tracks.

My personal favorite title screen theme has to be the one from Mario Kart 64. It may be just because I associate the game so much with my childhood, but every time I hear it, I get goosebumps.

Yay, people still post here. I is happy.

Lately I've been replaying the first Silent Hill and soundtrack really compliments the atmosphere.

The theme which plays in the Balkan Church has this eerie feel to it... And I love it.

Does anybody here remember the game Einhander for PS1? I found a freaking sick cover/remix of one of the songs from it. I'm gonna be listening to this over and over.

Maybe I should finally buy this game. I've had a demo for it for years and have always thought it was awesome. But you get limited continues and you have to start all over when you run out, which is why I never bought it. I still remember the original song that was covered, though. It was from a boss fight.

I remember Einhander a little bit. It was a Square game that went off my radar at the time. However Square's music is always top notch.

It's an awesome game. It's basically a bullet hell type of game, but sidescrolling.

Also, I got the Einhander OST.
