The Video Game Music Thread

[KoolNoodles]

All of the Transistor soundtrack. The short game for $20 probably isn't worth it, but every track for $10 is.

Anything shades of Blade Runner, including System Shock 2, Deus Ex, and Shadowrun games.

I just watched blade runner after realizing it was a massive hole in my cultural awareness, but I afterwards found out it was the old version. Is it that much of a massive upgrade to watch the final cut?

The only thing that really matters is what ending did you watch? The shitty fucking voiceover CRAP like they did with the theatrical release of Brazil? Or did you get the ambiguous one where it ends as soon as they step into the elevator(as in, is Deckard a replicant or not? -He is- Much more in-line with the book).

The FC also makes some scenes linger, which for most BR fans is probably a good thing. Atmosphere is everything in this movie. It also adds various bits to deaths, fights, and violence to make them more gory/visceral. There's more focus on the death of Tyrell and his eyes(which is important metaphorically as well, as Roy is killing his "god" by smashing his eyes/brain.) The fight with Pris is arguably more intense, as well as her death. Etc.

Other than that there are some graphical/sound continuity fixes in the FC. It's probably the "definitive" version. This isn't George Lucas being an ass, Ridley Scott et al did a good job.

This site breaks the scene changes down pretty well.

Total Annihilation, DX: HR, and the first couple Mortal Kombat games, everything else is getting coverage, seems.

Incline.

Jeremy Soule's work is outstanding.

 

[Gerrard]

That explains your shit taste.

And Soule's work is the exact opposite of outstanding, it is the most uninspired and generic shit imaginable.

 

[Eirikur]

Feeling all melancholic and disturbed, in the village with all the creepy kids...



The track might not be that great without the memories, though.

GTA 5: the best one thus far. Best new theme song too!

Alonne song is great but this one suits Ivory Kings battle just perfectly. Seeing that faggot walking slowly to you from Old Chaos and this shit starts playing Best entrance in Souls games
