what does "OST" stand for?

Original SoundTrack

Oberon Platinum Mine is easier. By late game most of the SuperHulk/Driller opposition is replaced by PTMC defense prototypes which are harmless.

thanks

Whoa! I hear Freespace at 0:19 for some reason...? anyone agree?

@gameplayer0000 Original Motion Picture Sound Track... but "they" decided that OMPST is toooo long :)

[sparkingconduit]

@chomskyFTW No. It's actually quite different. The basic melody is the same, but the tone of the entire piece has changed. Similarly, when the song goes into the breakdown around the 1:21 mark, there is now a grinding swoosh overlaid in the backdrop that is not present in Level 12's theme.

However, I will tell you that I can find no discernible difference between the General MIDI versions of these themes.

I like this number, but isn't it the same as Level 12 with some beeps added?

@printz150 They corrected that in the second game... Boar's heads? Not nice.

CALLISTO TOWER COLONY!

I want to know who the artists were who composed each song. I know that most of them were the same ones who did the D2 redbook music (except for Skinny Puppy and Type O Negative, obviously), and I have two good guesses (level 22: Larry Peackock, level 19: Mark Morgan).

BTW - it's incredibly easy to remaster the wavetable version of this song and make it sound like a remix.

@JonnyDaNinja ya the last time I played this game i was 7 now I'm 14 ,But none the less,it was hard to ever get prisoners out without dying and loosin 'em.

@flybeetle27 That's a good point since that level ONLY has yellow and red hulks if I remember right. However that level does have the saving grace of an over abundance of invince' powerups. Makes the level easier if you know where to go and how to do use them, y'know?

[flybeetle27]

I know they're so annoying and hard to get rid of.Not as bad as the titan mine though.
