Sonic: All you need to know is that i'm on his side!

Blast Hornet: Oh goody! Double the fun for me then, unless you want to BUZZ off now!

[torerik1234]

If Megaman X3 was an real Genesis Megaman X3 game, not the pirate one, Genesis music over-rates Snes music whit this one. If it was real. Great one cover genesis style!

[Farvan893]

Can you cover Crush Crawfish?



[GalliumGrant]

Did you use this in Sonic Boom?

[OkSka]

Techno Hive Act 1

[diahard88]

Buzzbombers ain't looking so wimpy now, are they?

[figaro589]

/watch?v=jm6Eh30SiH8&feature=r­elated

this is the true mega drive version made for a sonic hack

[walton80]

Dude this song is also in the Sonic the Hedgehog hack called "Sonic Boom."

[figaro589]

@walton80

what a game too!

[SuperMario811]

Hmm, not better than the SNES version, but this comes CLOSE! I'd much rather hear this than that shit rearranged version on the Saturn/PSOne.

[singularity3]

@SuperMario811 Are you kidding? You should listen to them back to back. This version is so far superior they can't even be compared.

[SuperMario811]

@singularity3 Nah, I disagree, one of the reasons being the SNES version was the original, and another being that I like the SNES mosh samples better; However, I like the percussion more in this version. Besides, it depends on what samples are used on either Genesis or SNES; they are both capable of using that hard Mega Drive snare, or that subby SNES bass.

[EPICLULZ123]

0 dislikes. Feels good man.

[Taniyatsu]

#OMG this is WAY better than original! Truly candy to my ears!!! ^.^b AWESOME JOB Gecko!!!

[blues03]

I like this so much more than the original O_o.

[GravianS]

Part of me always wondered why the Megaman X games didn't go to the Genesis instead of the SNES. The SNES had better expansion capabilities, built in sprite rotation and a few other useful features, but the Genesis had better built in support for large and detailed sprites, processor intensive scenes (anyone remember the lag from the desert in X2?) as well as a sound system that was more fitting of the later X game's music.

[SonicTheJackrabbit]

@GravianS

But X2 and X3 utilized a special chip for vector wire frames, and the Genny doesn't have something like that. (Maybe the SVP chip could work....) Unless it ran on the 32x. But we all know how much that add-on sucked. D:

[GravianS]

@SonicTheJackrabbit

Well, the SVP chip is proof that at least in theory the Genesis could have supported add on chips like the SNES. I don't really know the tech specs well enough to say how hard it was to get add on chips to work with the Genesis, but the SVP chip was actually head and shoulders better than the Super FX. One other thing to consider is that the Genesis basically used the same CPU as old Macintosh computers, which could render wireframe graphics in software mode easily.

[Dant2142]

@SonicTheJackrabbit The SVP would have been overkill, a wireframe boss here and there is easy in comparison to a full 3D game like Virtua Racing. Heck even the Sega CD's extra hardware would have been more than capable enough to do wireframes.

[alxxz]

Also, did MMX3 even use the full 256 colour palette of the SNES? I would say even less than 128…

And those fancy 3D graphics animation produced by the Cx4 chip, used for the 1st Boss in MMX2, is nothing that could not be accomplished in software mode, as seen in the Vector Man series on the Mega Drive.

[SgtThom]

@alxxz

Those chips where relatively inexpensive so you might as well include it(I might be wrong though.)

[alxxz]

How ever, I have no doubt that Capcom could have pulled off this series on the Mega Drive, seeing as to how good “Mega Man - The Wily Wars” looks and sounds on the Mega Drive.

And how is it that most Arcade PCBs that used similar FM-based sound hardware back in the day, sounded superior to the Mega Drive and even to the SNES?

[Dant2142]

@alxxz They used more costly chips that offered the same features as both the SNES and Genesis combined, along with some higher quality extras.

[alxxz]

This does not sound as faithful to the original on the SNES or even comparable to the CD quality version of the PSX & Saturn, as your other MMX3 - Intro Stage (Genesis Cover), which was excellent.

/watch?v=OUwg-n1GgOo

Good job though!

[Shwa]

MY BABIES.

HAVE THEM.

[WolfCoder]

\w/

rawk

[capnbarfy]

*orgasms*

[TheDemoniusX]

sex for my ears. Thank you!

[Sprite37]

Do you have a place to download this one?

[234234234werrrrrrr]

cool but i prefer the original for this one

[mmmmmarcus]

X3 for the genesis with this music would have kept that console going for a few more years ;)

[PrimalLight2323]

This is absolutely incredible.

[Versudan]

Wow... This is actually damn cool... I'm really not sure what else to say to it, but yeah. Definately awesome. Now, pardon me while I go check out the rest of your stuff.

[VenxTheHedgehog]

Sick.

A bit slower than the original, though...

[SyriusBelsferg]

Holy smokes. Should we dare to think this is what MMX3 could have sounded like if it had been released on the Genny/MD?

[DJackson747]

sounds way better than snes ver....seriously.

[ConkerfanX]

adding &fmt=18 makes this beyond amazing

[jwaffe]

awesome

[Adam060756]

Sounds like Shinobi III and Shadow Dancer.

Awesome but it's a bit to short.

[SUTOruin]

Way better than how that Brazilian genesis hack sounded. Great job!

[SickleSlash]

You know what you could do, is put this song on that pirated Mega Man X 3 for the Genesis that way the music doesn't suck. But thats just me, good job overall.

[Dant2142]

Awesome Remix, now someone needs to get this running on real hardware!

[D313370r]

@Dant2142

There is a rom hack of a Sonic game out there with this song in it. It does not sound quite as cool in game as it does here, but it's still pretty good. The game is called Sonic Boom, look at the responses for that version.

[Dant2142]

Yes I know, I've played it before, guess I should have been more specific.

I wanted to see it with the appropriate sound, and especially drums.

[zeroxaj4568]

u have to make more there beastness

[sugacookiegetta]

nice, but waaay too generic.

[Febabify]

Holy crap, this is alot better than the original even.

You have to make more of these covers.

[Ostnizdasht206]

I'd like to hear some Starfox covers with the Genesis.

[Ostnizdasht206]

Siiiiick

[nintendo1889x]

That's actually quite impressive! 15/5!

[CCrockyourass]

PSX>This>SNES

[MonsterXfan]

i want mega man 4 and kirby dreamland 2 dark castle or do maybe volt kraken's theme

[InterrobangPie]

Better than the original ;)

[Millecollin]

What Genesis games did you rip the percussions from to be more exact if I may ask out'a curriosity and by what means did you rip them?

GensKMod or something simmilar?

[geckoyamori]

Shinobi 3 and Mega Turrican. Used a .vgm player, muted all FM/PSG channels, then recorded to .wav and cropped out the individual samples in a generic sound editor.

[Millecollin]

Kk, thx, just what I needed to know ^^

[nrdesign1991]

@geckoyamori sometimes you can just load the ROMs as raw into GoldWave and copy them directly from the ROM

[Westplay]

@geckoyamori These remakes are awesome! Can you get sounds from contra hard corps for your next ones? I think that game has great music and sounds like metal music

[Hypershell]

This sounds positively divine. AWESOME work!

[Worenx]

This kinda makes me think of Decapattack! Sounds incredible! I love it! Great work; can't wait to see more. :P

[NucleaRaptor]

Gecko,this is magnificent. Miles better than the original.

Please make moar.

[Segasaturn95]

Oh man, this is dead on. Nice job!

[Mobius14]

Do you take requests? If so, I think everyone wants to hear Crush Crawfish next ;)

[ocre2]

This is pretty cool, gecko. I'll have to get that plugin for my FL.

[deblobwii]

I actually like the sound of this and the Intro song with the YM2612 much better than the originals. How did you make your songs?

[geckoyamori]

I sequenced them in FLStudio using a free VSTi called VOPM, for the PSG channels I used the native FL synth 3xosc loaded with simple square oscillators, and the drum samples are ripped straight from various Genesis games.

[evilotto91]

you should try some spark mandrill or megaman 9 tunes maybe throw some other sick nintendo songs in this cause ya know sometimes megadrive music is bad sometimes good lol.but if your taking requests i want spark mandrill

[david02129]

@geckoyamori

god damnit i really need to study up on my fl studio. i gotta start making some awesome tracks like this.
