Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted December 9, 2011 Moderators Share Posted December 9, 2011 If the irrrational hatreds thread was floating around I'd have something to say about the Final Fantasy series. I know I should just let people who like it like it... But I find it so unbelievably lame that when people gush about it I can't help but feel the urge to piss on their chips.

Paid Members FLips Posted December 9, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted December 9, 2011 I enjoyed 9 and 10, but every other one I've played I just didn't really enjoy. People do go on about 7 like it's the be all and end all of gaming though. Same with Ocarina of Time, which I don't really find that special either.

Merzbow Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) FF8 is the best in my eyes, it may have had an emo twat as a lead character but i find the whole magic/battle system to be the best of the lot. Agreed on OOT, it's great but not THAT great. Â : Awesome battle music, just a shame it was only used in the dream sequencies.

LiamTheGreat Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) awful games that had good soundtracks.  Little fact about Road Avenger; it had had the same producer as Double Dragon. Which is why the car you drive is the same one in Billy and Jimmy's garage in Double Dragon  spider-man and the x-men in arcade's revenge - Gambit's stage Edited December 9, 2011 by LiamTheGreat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reznor Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I remember I used to like the music on Top Gear for the SNES too. One of the tracks had an intro that sounded a bit like Bliss by Muse. Â Alien 3 on the Megadrive was pretty cool and atmospheric also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Total Package Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) Good call of Virtua Fighter 4 evo Total Package, I forgot how much I liked the map screen music on that. Which reminds me my fav from VF 5: Â Â Nice. Â You know I only got to play VF5 when it first came out in japan arcades, so I cant really remember the music, I will have to give it a DL and listen to the whole thing, cheers. Â Ive been watching some Final Showdown vids and like what Im hearing on that too, the ost has music from both games, so that saves me the troube of finding that. Â LOL Night Trap that song sounds like an 80s ending credits theme, still good though, funny it was like FMV games we all the rage back then, I still remember Hologram Time Traveler the SEGA game, that game blew my little 12 year old mind, nobody else remembers the damn thing though, I wont ever forget seeing that and going up to it in sheer awe. Â How Hologram games didn't take off after that I don't know, but like FMV games its a dead genre now. Â Alien 3 on the Megadrive was pretty cool and atmospheric also. Â Yeap I remember this too, good game, spent a good while trying to beat it, was quite tough.

Merzbow Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Journey, the whole soundtrack. Â I'm close to saying the entire game could be the best, it's just that beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted April 5, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 PS1 -   A small note, but I fucking love Mark Mothersbaugh and his work on the Crash Bandicoot games stands out as my favourite non-Devo work of his.     I'd include more Spyro The Dragon but sadly it doesn't really have "boss music" as the bosses have their own full levels in which the music plays throughout. Excellent music though, composed by Stewart Copeland (the drummer from The Police). Snippets from the soundtrack have been used in allsorts including "Wizard Peak" being used as the credits for The Amanda Show on Nickelodeon years ago.  Megaman 8 - Boss Fight    Resident Evil 3 - Final Nemesis  Ape Escape - Specter's theme    That's it for today, but I'll crack out some more stuff tomorrow probably. I know I've missed tons out, so feel free to add your own and fill the gaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kookoocachu Posted April 5, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) Oh this thread! Marking out here. Â All the ones I can think of off the top of my head have already been mentioned, great shout on Man with the Machine Gun. Â Â (And every Metal Gear theme ever.)

HeavyT Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 (edited) I know its not good and doesnt make the list, but does anyone remember some of the hilarious songs in the Pro Ev's from a few years back?  fifa 98 on psone had a great soundtrack IIRC, and Tony Hawk's 1. I remebered this as well....  Duke Nukem - Megadeth  shame i cant give it a listen, soundcards gone in my laptop.

Merzbow Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Can i nominate the worst soundtrack? It has to be Saints Row: The Third, it tries the GTA radio station gimmick but falls flat on it's face with the worst of todays music from all genres.
