Favorite VG Music Castlevania - I, II, III, IV, some DX: ROB, SOTN...maybe some BL Final Fantasy (American originals) - II, III, V, and MQ Axelay Bionic Commando - Original, Retrofitted, and Modern U.N. Squadron Ninja Gaiden - I, II, & III (haven't checked out modern) Sex Kitten RPG - Don't ask or Google. Super R-Type Zelda - A Link to the past More, but I can't remember any
If anyone can recommend me non-video game electronic artists with the same awesome feel and approach to electronic music as this, I'd be grateful. I've tried to find more myself, but I'm not really experienced in the genres and I can't find anything remotely this good with the same feel.
@internisus Currently on the 7th track. It's way too smooth jazz for me. I'm enjoying it, but it's not really striking me. It definitely leans towards the mellow, and nothing about it particularly jumps out at me. It also doesn't scream "Castlevania" in my opinion. That said, I'm still listening. =D
I still think that the Mega Man games should have gone this route rather then just straight up 8-bit.
With BC-ReArmed it pays tribute to the 8-bit, but with a great amount of subtlety. For example, this track is totally remixed..but you can hear a ton of 8-bit in there, and it fucking rocks!
OMG! I played Bionice Commando (the newer 2-d scroller) and all we could do at the begining was let the theme song play over and over... He's an elctronic musician and this sing is one of our favorites... BECAUSE IT IS AMAZING...
this is my favorite song in the remake, overall this simon guy did a tremendous job! what i also liked how was in some stages the music sounds faint when you're outside. you just hear the bass pulses then when you enter you hear the entire song.
The original NES Bionic Commando soundtrack composer is to thank for that melody you cite there. Here name's Junko Tamiya. Not to say that the Rearmed remake of it isn't stellar, don't get me wrong :)
This shit is just spot on! If there was anything i had doubts about before getting the game it would be the new music remixes since there would not need to be any change in the simple but yet epic gameplay. But i knew the second i i watched the intro and got the chills trough my body from the music, it would be an epic win.
I was literally one of the first people to download this on xbox live. i bought the full version at around 4:48 AM as it refreshed in the "new arrivals" section. this is not a lie. but, it doesn't matter.what matters is i still play the game to this day, and have always loved the music from it, even when i was 1/4 awake. i'm glad i found these youtube vids containing music. thanks for uploading them BlackRyuOmegalll.
Wow. Well, I may bend over and buy it from Direct 2 Drive, but if it released on Steam I'd forget all about that and re-purchaseit there.
Really, though, I'm more excited for this game than most other games on the PC. I hate that it's more expensive on PC than console, though. That's kinda messed up. $15 isn't too much, though.
man i love the music in this game, its great comparing the old versions to the remixes, those old tunes defo make for some epic remixes! love it, best £6.99 ive spent on a game lol
I kinda wish as an added bonus that the developing studio included the original bionic commando, or even new bionic commando gameplay with the same graphics and sound.
Other (nes) video game remixes make me feel like playing the game after hearing the remix. This however makes me want to play rearmed. In other words: If you have not played this game yet, you're missing something. Big time.
though the orginal is still cool, but I like this remake of bionic commando... he make captain commando look like a chump. which commando will win, Captain Commando or Bionic Commando.. anyhow, I'm getting this for the PS3.
When you buy it from them, do the guys who did the game get the sales? I never heard of this site. I want these guys to have my money.... You can tell in their interviews, they care about the fans. You can see it in their prices.
I'm pretty sure, like in all transactions, the developer will get a percentage of the profits. I don't know the details but I would imagine Simon Viklund would at least get something out of it, however minimal. It is also catalogued in iTunes if you don't trust sumthingdigital, but I don't own an iPod :)
Why, why didn't use the original chords? this is just a simplified chord version of the NES, with a better instrumentation, I cannot like this :(
