@CradleofNightwish That's the hook from the original Turrican soundtrack.
I remember when I first heard this version, way back when, I thought it was going to be a light remix of the original but then it erupted with those gorgeous strings. It is so well sequenced with the storyboards of the intro too.
I love all 3 Turrican tracks from the Amiga days but this is my favourite. Just!
Third comment I know but this piece of music is that amazing. It sends a chill up and down my spine and gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. So beautiful for game music. I would almost expect to hear something that sounded like this in a soundtrack for an 80's sci-fi b-movie.
yeah but all microsoft have to do is show the green to rainbow arts then there made for life..........come on youtubers make your magic bring this t o xbox live and psn please.
They also don't release games on floppies or cassettes anymore. I can't imagine how unusual it would be to run a game from something I only know of listening to music from. I never knew about data cassettes and I'm 24, old enough to have seen some unusual data storage methods.
This tune is my ALLTIME favourite game music...the game: my ALLTIME favourite game! Nothing comes close, not Halo, not Mass Effect...nothing! This is a game that SHOULD be re-made & re-released and made in to a movie! It's eternal!
It's a shame that we have not seen a port of this to the PS3 or PSP even x360 but I believe alot of the reasons for this is that rainbow arts is not around anymore and factor 5 is super small now after the money problems it faced earlier in the year.
in 2000 i played an MMORPG (AC) and i named one of my chars "Chris Huelsbeck ", .. he made the turrican 2 amiga music, and i offten loaded the game just to listen to it's musics :)
WE DEMAND A NEW TURRICAN GAME,NO MOR COD OR BIONIC COMMANDO SHITS.LET'S GO BACK TO BASIC OLD SCHOOL.

@masterpatric07 Hey, Bionic Commando was awesome!
And it was released in 1987, so what are you talking about?
I support the motion for a new Turrican though!
