FF6 Balance & Ruin Kickstarter RELAUNCHED (and FUNDED)!
Florio replied to zircon's topic in Announcements
My pledge is at 10$ right now, and I was wondering if I upgrade it to 50$, will I still get the physical copy of Random Encounter ? I don't see this information on the Kickstarter project, only in the email received two weeks ago. Thanks. -
F-Zero X, really : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGaXb2EMBfY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKBp5ZGaBZA Almost every track of this game kicks ass. I want to die every time I remember I sold it when I was younger

What a mystery. I think we should call Dr House here.

OCRA-0013 - Tales: Summoning of Spirits
Florio replied to KyleJCrb's topic in Album Reviews & Comments
As a HUGE fan of Tales of Symphonia, I had to comment THIS. As many, I've waited years for this album. I'll give some feedback (that can't be compared with evktalo's ones, I'll be very simple, and not "long and constructive" as pu_freak said... not that I don't want to, I just can't ), mostly on the Symphonia part. And sorry if my english is bad ¬.¬ First of all, The Unholy Wars. That's the style I love, and the arrangement is so good that I can't dislike it. The intro is just amazing too. Perfect opening for the entire album. Smile and Forgive now. IMO, the theme isn't that good in the game, so I didn't expect to appreciate that much the track. The sadness in there is very touching. Just love the rythm, the melody... Café Mantra is a bit too "oriental" for me, but even if it's not my favorite style, I can just admire the quality of the arrangement. A very good job. Chaotic Heart... just by listening to the intro (I saw the remixer's name after) I knew I'd love this. Didn't imagine the theme being remixed like that AT ALL, but it fits ridiculously well, especially when the chorus is playing... Rocky Raine = WIN. Desert Nights. Disco time. I don't really like this in general, but that made me laugh when I made the comparison with the atmosphere of Triet xD Strike of the Devil's Axes : two words. EPIC. WIN. I wanted that kind of remix for THIS track since the game came out. This one is just awesome. Definitely one of my favs. The Fall of Iselia - I'm not fond of happy themes. But this track brings me some good memories, and I LOVE the dramatical part (2:50 ). Too bad it doesn't last longer IMO. The reference to the story of Iselia along the track is a good idea. Continental Divide is not very far from the original. I liked a lot the music in the game, it put a particular atmosphere. Continental Divide enhance it with a great arrangement. Like A Glint. Rock and solid arrangement from a battle theme I like a lot is more than enough to make me love this. Though I think it lacks something... I couldn't say what . Anyway, very nice additions to the original track, especially the guitar riff beginning at 1:21. Sacred Ashes is really beautiful and sticks well to the original. Ozette (is it the name in English too ?) has a special atmosphere, and is an important place in the game for me since I love everything around Presea. As a fan, I can say this track is a success. Altar Perception. The instruments in this track are a very good choice IMO, and the entire mix feels nice. Not much else to say... it goes smoothly and sounds perfect. Ah, Dream Traveler. I said it earlier, I'm a Presea lover, so it's only natural for me to fear this remix and to think "Please, it MUST be perfect !". I have to say I'm not disappointed. I don't know, there's something that "elates" me (is it the right term ?), and that's why the title fits also perfectly. The string coupled with the piano result in a great arrangement. Beautiful. My Secret Forest is a bit too far from the original for me. The moments I prefer are when the original music is easily recognizable. Still, the whole track is composed with a master hand and feels very good to listen at. R.I.P, Reuben Kee. Apogee. The intro is just totally awesome. Actually, the whole track is. Very nice variations from the original melody. I especially love the intro, outro, and at 1:40 and 3:16 with this amazing bass ! The original track was great, this one is even better. Holy Judgement... damn, I didn't except something like that. A 12 minutes track, are you crazy ? And are you allowed to create such an epic arrangement after all these amazing tracks ? I must admit I was afraid at the beginning. In 12 minutes, there MUST be something I dislike... no ? Could everything in this track be incredible ? I don't know if it's me or not, but you just CAN'T hate this arrangement, at least if you already beat the game once. I won't give you the details, it'd be even longer than the track itself. First, the different characters' voices fits perfectly... even Genis' one gave me the chills (thanks to the choirs). Every instrument is played as and when it has to be played (I know what I mean, that's the important ). Every part of the arrangement sounds very epic. I think there's not much else to say about it. Thanks, guys. And to finish, Summoning of Spirits. Another "Fighting of the Spirit" remix, but still very different. IMO, it closes the album (without the Ratatosk bonus) perfectly, with a very beautiful and calm arrangement. The piano section at 3:41 is just... wow. Well, almost everything else in the track is great, but I particulary loved this part. That's all for me now. I hope you appreciated the feedback, though a bit "noobish" (and frenchie too). I will just thank all of you for making this entire album, that's some incredible work. One last thing to say : (much better than a speech) -

Sonic 3D (Genesis) - Volcano Valley remix
Florio replied to Florio's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
I was afraid the intro could sound a bit cheap, so I'm glad you like how the music progress. Thank you for your comment ! Any idea to make this remix better ? -
Sonic 3D (Genesis) - Volcano Valley remix
Florio replied to Florio's topic in Post Your Game ReMixes!
Hmm... nothing ? -
Hey everyone ! I'm here to get some feedback about my new remix. For my beginner's ears, it's "finished" (yeah I know, when an artist considers a work as "finished", he must NOT change it NO MATTER WHAT, but oh well), but since it's my first serious project, I know it won't be accepted, so I need YOUR advices ! It's a remix of Volcano Valley from Sonic 3D (Genesis, NOT Saturn !). I always loved this track. Thanks for listenning, and enjoy =) Hope you'll like it.

Did it with a friend on Brawl. Believe it or not, we actually won against 3 other friends by playing Captain Falcon. That was epic.

13 = MEGAMAN FOR BRAWL !!11!!!1!!1&!! >_>

Back to the CPUs, I don't know if it has been said before in this thread, but I'd like to point out something. I think it was the same in Melee, but it's even worse in Brawl, and that's why I hate fighting 3 CPUs : when you move away from them to do things like charging your beam with Samus, they ALL will stop fighting each other and come to kick your ass... I created a stage and it was pretty obvious : I was above them, but a wall separated us. What did they do ? They tried to reach me and jumped in the wall, although the 3 of them were litterally touching each other... without attacking once. Damn, it's just like a 3vs1 match with friendly fire on =/

Whats the most crazy video game-related thing you've ever done
Florio replied to Final_metroid's topic in General Discussion
I played 17+ hours a Saturday to play and finish Zelda : Twilight Princess (OMG I didn't do that with OoT !). Not that impressive, but that was a great moment. Also, the most epic thing I've ever done in a video game happened 3 years ago. It was on Sonic the Hedgehog 3. I played as Sonic, and a friend helped me with Tails. We made it to the final boss, Dr Robotnik, but Sonic is the only one who can beat him, so my friend watched me kick Eggman's ass. The problem is, you only have 10 minutes to finish a level. I'm sure you know what I'm going to say, but I just can't stop now... so, I don't remember the time remaining when I came to the place where you fight Robotnik, but it was like it shouted "JUST HURRY UP N00B, YOU'RE GONNA DIE BECAUSE OF THE TIME WHAT A SHAME LOL". As we fought, the time passed... and guess what ! When I did the final jump to touch the final boss... the time was : 9:59. That was so fucking E P I C. I didn't even do it on purpose. The only thing I regret is that I didn't have any camera around. That was (almost) like if I defused a bomb one second before the explosion... -
Thanks for your answers =) Another question : does number of effects and instruments in a mix affect your judging ? I mean, yes, sometimes there are some great piano-only arrangements, but most of the time, remixes are full of effects and melodies... I may be wrong, but is it the only way for you to say "ok, this one worked a lot on his mix" ? There are tracks that can be simple, but really catchy and effective. For example, I love some old OCremixes that I think wouldn't make it to the front page nowadays, because they're too "simple" (can't think of another word ). If I'm completely wrong, just say it... I haven't listened to every remixes on the site, far from it, so I'm maybe saying bullshit
