(Holds up lighter)

[Igz861]

Sounds very Duke Nukem-ish for a Bionic Commando remix but I like it!

[paddymoep]

Cool!

MaSu's cover is better, though.

[nadenitza]

reminds me of duke nukem :)

[Letsfightlove]

[MrNoobWarrior]

[BahumutRider]

For such a great version of the song, it's horribly underused in the game this version was put in. What the hell, capcom?

[youthanasia138]

[asafs16]

[RussianCivilian]

thats the best Promo for the game ive seen yet.

[LocoEvilDabdoub]

dude: goto and play ocremix. org

[111v1per111]

epic song , very nice vertexguy

[MaSQuEdePuSTA]

It sounds so incredibly epic. And videogames should always sound awesomely epic. Even if they are about a guy that just can't jump.

[hunteroftheodd]

i Need to Get a fernandes Sustainer system. i Think That is what he is using. im not sure but this sounds kick ass

[Contra1994]

We got to get some tabs, tunings, and everything else needed to learn these songs

[BlackHawk25028]

How do you tune your guitar in this song? Drop D, Drop C, or if neither, tell what tuning.

[stockok]

perfect

[yhwh88]

If there was one good thing about that game, it was the music.

[sofawall]

I love how you still zoom in on yourself in the fast bit :P

[Ikimatuse]

This song is simply amazing.

This is an inspiration for me, for that.. I salute you.

You are a beast with the guitar. ;)

[acidownyou]

great game , great jam !

[xRocketzFighterx]

I never played the full game but it looks so cool and unique than the other shitty looking games also this song fucking owns.

[TyLionHeart]

god i hated the game magic death barriers everywhere!!!

[moha1911]

This is should be the main theme of the new bionic cuz the new theme rlly suck but the game is great

[szkcs]

actually you can hear exactly the same song on radios inside the game ... and at credits you can read " music by vertexguy "

[arda1993]

You´re completely right, this song rocks!!! GO VERTEXGUY, all you jams are awesome!

[111v1per111]

awesome , love this game , and this song rulz :D

[ice788]

vertex, you got a favorite theme song to shred too?

[silviosantannajr]

too damn good!rhahaha

[Pouttu474]

why is it that usually in every classic game the best song is from the 1st level :D like doom and this one

[MisanthropikOne]

Doom didnt have music.......

[vertexguy]

That's usually intentional in the soundtrack design. Not everyone will get to see level 5, but everyone see's level 1...so you always put your best song first. :)

[LazyWorkCreations]

@vertexguy That a good thought :D

[Kalkax]

@Pouttu474 phenominal proof would be the tarra theme form FFIV ;) plays right at the beginning

[GranTruismo4head]

@vertexguy You Chris Kline are the Godfather of VGL and did you meet Tommy Tallarico while you on tour with them because you sir are a god

[BlackHawkGaming]

@vertexguy ...i never would've thought of that =) i have a quick question. do you do independent projects or do you work with a company?

[Assiman]

@Pouttu474

Well, there's always Megaman's doctor wily's stage music

[poperotsi]

oh smooth one there firebalde ... O_o

[fireblade95]

hey! you can play! any original stuff? or do you just do oldies? m?

[Bajsnissse]

He's the only one who's ever managed to do a good cover of the mission 1 double dragon track. So f**k off!

[mindrapewithpleasure]

long live 8bit!

[Darkinfiniti]

Excellent work man. You're covering all of these games...but what you really NEED to cover is some tracks from Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden 2...there are some absolute gems in those two games. Keep on keepin' on.

[ajmusiq83]

yes i agree

[matt10999999e]

i want a cd with all your songs uv played on it!

[ISmellDeath]

if i remember correctly, most of them are available for download from his website for free.

[vh2k]

He's selling this one, gotta have something to do with the game's copyright.

[intelligentmeathead]

Man, everyone of this guy's songs are just freakin' amazing!

[RJMproductionz]

cool sounds close to the nes original

[Kingofhearts3d]

damm some classic shit

[Mode01D]

DAMN! this song totally rocks!!!, too bad there's not a studio version of this song on youtube...

[mvenom101]

asif put the tags as petrucci satriani and vai

[aetyate]

easter egg in bionic commando game, they actually have the audio from this video in the game!

that's awesome

[PenguinofDestruction]

that's not an easter egg, he says it in the description in case you didn't read that, and if you look on wiki it'll tell you what games he's actually played songs for and have been in the games (about 20 if i remember correctly)

"my new song "The Bionic Jam" which is featured in Capcoms Bionic Commando" that's in the description, so.....read descriptions before commenting

[IRonanN1]

the king! 5stars

[superdeat]

Why ain't if free? :(

[iamShorteh]

He has a wife and kid to feed.

[JKSmellie]

Why the hell is music for video games so goddamn awesome and catchy? It's so annoying but so fucken awesome too.

[Angsc09]

That mean you never play your childhood game at all.

[ocelotxp]

Because some people in the industry care :)

[Maxis098]

Simply amazing.

[saddam5]

You, sir, are the proof that there is no upper limit for awesomeness.

[Axelsama]

thats fucking hardcore and dam catchy

[orangetide]

you are made of win. great work!

[eloctinar]

da bomb!

[kimboslicesbeard]

I think you pretty much covered all the greats. MAYBE.....a Battletoads into mix??? My personal fav of any NES classics. Good job again.

[dope2000]

yeah that would be rly cool ;]

[Kalkax]

I Dont Care if the new Bionic Commando is gonna suck, or not... But i'll buy the game just for this!

[OmegaNexus1]

W-..wait.. YOU were at the Iron Man of gaming!?

[thedarkfiredragon]

i didnt know you were involved with screwattack, that makes you 17times more awesome, why the hell havent you exploded from awesomeness yet!?!?!?!?!

[doles2222]

You are best guitarist ever and you play best music themes in whole world !

[666KillerXxX]

You should make Improvements of the Sega game: Mystic Force!

By the way.... YOU ROCK!

[Renadrawer]

Woah IT's Really GOod

PS: NEver Heard The Original Version

[Dreth363]

Then you're missing out on some godly 8-bit tunes.

[ShiningStarManga]

Once again...you kick SO MUCH ASS!!

[Skumnation]

This is better than what was actually used for Rearmed, shouldve been this I tell ya

[Mattimeo78]

Excellent song, Chris. But did you intend to look exactly like that one ass from Starship Troopers? XD

[Flatulus]

LOL

[Maxis098]

Haha that is great!

[RavenLand]

@Mattimeo78 Ace is not an ass, he's awesome. Everybody needs a friend like him xD

[crazzy696]

I put your work into my face book man. You rock. Remembering my chilhood with all these video games. Old school stuff's. once again good job and keep it up.

[EnriquePalazzo]

Do you use midi samples of drums/bass or is that your actual playing?

Either way, you're one hell of a talented guy. I don't think I could ever get sick of Duke Nukem Jam. It's amazing that it's not even your main expertise!

[tnpan]

According to my iTunes, I have listened to that song 64 times, and it hasn't been that long, like 3-4 weeks.

[largemoose]

lol sweeps

[itishardtogetaname]

wow! this was very cool O.O

[digitalconsumator]

JUST FUNTASTIC!!! ...

VERTEX

Greetings from Sebia!

[RayofJustice]

Fucking great music and game,Game Boy version?

[angsk]

Lol, the game only came out for PC, XBox 360 and PS3.

[IgkuitBBswm]

This theme was used in the NES original...

[MegaFan1994]

Can you release a CD or something or put up some links or SOMETHING!?!? I must have this music!!!!

[Andrezra]

just buy it at itunes...

[rickypacific]

Good Job Chris. Good to see you are still playing and doing a damned good job at it. Take care. Michael Dooley

[tnpan]

Holy fuck. Not only did you play at Iron Man of Gaming, but you are also going to have your music featured in Bionic Commando Rearmed?

I... I am not joking here, I am almost in tears. This is just too awesome. I am not exaggerating on this!

[jaychenderson]

@tnpan: It's not featured on Rearmed, that's been don by Simon Viklund (another excellently remade soundtrack btw, I heavily reccommend it). This bad boy's going on the next-gen Bionic Commando, the full-3D one that's coming out next June.

[tnpan]

I didn't know there was a difference between featured and in the game.

[tnpan]

I'm sorry, THEY'RE MAKING A 3D ONE TOO? KICKASS!

[angsk]

May, Actually.

[jaychenderson]

:/ Close enough, by the time I actually get it it'll probably be June anyway. :P

[jaychenderson]

Anyone know where I can get an accurate tab for Area 01 of the NES version? All Google keeps finding is the duff arcade version (which was pure cack imo).

But man... if I had a hat, I'd take it off to you. That was just.. wow.

[Ishar]

Wow, that was awesome!

I never use exclamation marks, but fuck it, this is almost as great as the Duke Nukem jam.

[storeallvids]

Awesome music, cool to see some blond people left in the world.

[Punchbass2007]

Music = win

people that rate others on their clothes = lame

[5n1k3r5]

Dude you totally kick ass, awesome music!

[erealmz]

Bad... fucking.... ass!!!!!

[dedede666]

Nice.

[ddawgsmash]

thats rock son haha

[JekaZMD]

YeaH! This is great! I got this song stuck in my head for already 3 days! )Awsome guitar play, awsome soundtrack... It should be used in upcoming new Bionic Commando game.

[angsk]

Bionic Commando the Duke Nukem brother =).

[cloudmx]

fuck yes, you are awesome. i can't fucking believe how awesome you are.

[custom24prs]

Great job! I wish I was fast enough with a pick to play this baroque style stuff.

[ourtheharry]

Awesome. Congrats on getting your awesome music in such a high profile game.

[DogHouseRiley1990]

whoa whoa whoa hold up?....is this the actual music that is gonna be in the game?...if so they gotta make a double dragon and contra like his other videos

[spriterlicous]

Completely agree :D

[und3rth3bridg3]

awesomeeee !!!5/5 hey what loop pedal do u use ?

[Z3rordi3]

I watch this everyday.

[tonycl568]

sweet, this is the bomb

[Firefret30003]

Dude! Cut it out! Your making the rest of us guitarists look bad! :P

[SoftComet]

BUT THIS ROCKS ;)

[mafiaBH]

very nice !

[BladeOfAnon]

This guy needs to make a tribute to DOOM. He really does (DOOM or DOOM II). The music in there's hardcore and would be insane if Vertex got his hands on some ideas.

Kickin' ass.

[PetrucciFever]

Chris, seriously: This is the real deal! Sounds so awesome

[wyzeguyman]

Sick dude, one of my fav games as a kid, and love the remake on xbox live. Do more Contra one stages man, that would kick ass.

[FluffyMuffinMan]

Fucking awesome

[segiperkasa]

cool song.. cool play...

[zangbeef]

please tell me you still beat the skins. i want to here the song wish or maybe fade to black. and where did the long hair go. nice to see your still kicking ass. Tanner O.

[ramik81]

man, i'd love to hear this guy break out with mega man and castlevania...mannnn!

[sanjak]

Whoa! Another NES game? Nice performance though I don't know this game.

[theRedPress]

Nice job, always was a big fan of bionic commando!

[enzo2123]

gets me in the mood to do something awesome.

everyone feels the same way, I know it.

[RodrigoCabanillas]

Bionic Jam > top gun

[WeisseDrache]

you've got talent, dude :u

you should have albums out for sale LoL.

I like it when people play VG music and add their own stuff to it. D:

Hmm... do you think you could do the music of Resident Evil 2- Leon's ending? That'd be awesome as well. :D

[david02129]

...wow.

[JaredKinter1981]

Your songs really should be on Guitar Hero

[JaredKinter1981]

Fucking awesome as always!! You really captured the spirir of Bionic Commando in this song!

[deadducks]

Wonderful version of this song keep up the good work man

[FrankH4rt]

You really caught the essence of BC I gif thanks

[woutsie]

wow awesome dude... you are the best! :p

[danw087]
