Re: The videogame music thread

Was GT5 the first time it was in a game in the west?

This is the boss theme for Fortified Zone on the Game Boy. A game that I never heard of until Ben's stream earlier this evening.

Re: The videogame music thread

Sanctuary in the Glades is the theme for the Wellspring Glades settlement in Ori and the Will of the Wisps. A relaxing theme as the player takes a short break from those enemies, spikes and other dangers.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

I started Ori and the Will of the Wisps on Switch on Sunday morning and I've nearly 10 hours played already. I think I forgot quite how much I enjoyed the first game. I love Ori's movement and all the traversal skills build up quickly so I'm just zooming all over the place now.

I enjoyed Into The Breach, should have stuck with it for some more clears. Most moves are massive decisions.

Re: The videogame music thread

I played a bit of Super Hang-On on the Mega Drive back in the day. I had another go at it in Yakuza: Like a Dragon. I still only tried the Beginner Africa course but Outride A Crisis is a nice tune.

The video is an extended looping version. I think the loop is about 2:15 in.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Yeah, I started on PS4 but when the free upgrade was announced, I waited. On PS5, I stopped when I saw some of the shadows falling over Crash and just stared at them. Pretty sure those changed.

I'm just beelining the main levels myself.

With Xbox allowing game streaming via browser, I recently gave Slay The Spire a quick go, aiming to try out both the streaming service and the touch controls. and I may have become just a little hooked on this game ...

Re: Videogame Deals

3DS fans: a bunch of Atlus 3DS games have been discounted by 50-87% on the eShop. Many of these are now very expensive to buy physically. I have physical copies but buying digital versions and selling a few would pay for a PS5...! Highlights: - Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends Of The Titan £4.49 - Etrian...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Is there a physical release for this, I can only see one in North America? I know Capcom hasn't been fond of European physical releases for Ace Attorney in the last few years. I'm in Canada, so that's how I got the physical release. But I found the NA release and the Japanese release of Phoenix Wri...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?

Finally found a couple of games that seem to be drawing me in. Good to hear, I was in a similar funk for a couple of months there. I've been playing Spider-Man: Miles Morales . At the start, I thought that since it didn't add much to the original (which I loved) that I might get bored of retreading...

Re: The videogame music thread

I recently bought a PS5 and waited for a while at Astro's Playroom's PS5 menu screen listening to Memories of Play. neAgMSj3Xz4 While themes aren't a thing on the PS5, I would love an Astro one with this track to give the menu some constant, calm, non-obtrusive music (the music already there is almo...

Re: The videogame music thread

Bastion is one of my favourite videogame soundtracks and even if you don't intend to play the now 10 year old (Christ!) game, the soundtrack is worth a listen. Spike in a Rail is a level theme from the middle of the game. I really enjoyed Tom's interview with Darren Korb as well. LB5GJWgRepY I also ...
