Someone has recreated the first part of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link as an FPS. I just had to jump right in and try this, it's not bad, it makes some changes (no towns, or magic) since it's really only a small part of the game at the end of the day, but what is there is very cool. I WANT TO PLAY NOW!! Might be cool if this guy felt like doing the rest although I don't really get the impression that he does at this point. Either way, this was pretty awesome to see as far as I'm concerned.

This is pretty awesome, there isn't a ton of great video-game inspired hiphop out there (there is some, even here at OCR), but this is really really good! Epoch was my favorite, as it seems to be many others, but the rest of the album is no slouch either.

Congratulations djp!

I actually really liked Expose' (the Nikki and Paulo episode), purely for its silliness. Absolutely, it didn't accomplish much in the grand Lost storyline if anything, but it was entertaining, combined with the fact that it killed these two characters we all loved to hate (why the producers thought people would be ok with them randomly interjecting two people who had supposedly "been there all along" who knows). Really though, the fact that it opened to the tune of Wreckx-n-Effect's "Rumpshaker" will always be what I remember about it. I still remember just thinking "What... the... #%^&..." as the episode began to that song. I'm sure a lot of people just thought it was stupid, but for me it was mostly hilarious and definitely entertaining. Sawyer's "The hell's Expose'?" line always cracks me up as well. I was fine with the Richard episode since even though it only followed Richard, I know I wanted to know his story, and seeing the Black Rock arrive on the island and destroy the statue was cool as well. Maybe I'm easy to please but this episode was just fine with me. It also finally confirmed my brother and I's long suspicion that Richard arrived on the Black Rock which was fun. NOW, as far as the Jacob/Smokey episode goes, I couldn't agree more. This SHOULD have been one of the best and certainly most revealing episodes yet, but for the most part their "explanation" was so vague it was almost more frustrating then anything. I am on the "I wanted a little more information side" of the coin when it comes to Lost fans, I know a lot were ok with how it ended since the characters' development was given priority, and it was always a character driven show. I don't dispute that, but for me a lot of the intrigue of the show was with the island's mysteries, and in some cases I don't quite feel like I got my answers. I still can't really bring myself to comment on the finale, other than than it was mostly good and Lost will certainly go down as one of my favorite shows ever.

The Hollaback girl one killed me laughing, I think it's something I'd rather watch than experience live though .

Definitely would like to see some TF2 characters, the Heavy as proposed above would work fine! Maybe some of the later FF game characters with no current representation would work as well, just very randomly I'm going to say take Fran from FFXII and (since everyone seems to love him) Sazh from FFXIII.

I do like the Chronotorious version (any CT music fan needs to get that... now) but would still love to hear a more electric guitar-heavy remix of this song. That would be one of those mixes I've silently hoped has been created for years now, and who knows, maybe someone will get inspired by this!

I have kind of been enjoying playing "shoot first, burn later" Pyro, but at the same time it doesn't really seem to be what the "Pyro" class should be doing primarily. I'll be interested to see what Valve comes up with after already tweaking it a couple times now.

Last time I tried Chrome was right when it launched, I've always liked Google products but at the time I wasn't sold to the point that I was ready to get rid of Firefox. If it's better now, I just might have to give it another look. The OS doesn't excite me, yet anyway.

Was finally able to get my PC up in the new place and place my order for the physical yesterday, in the meantime the mp3s have been seeing a lot of action! Rainbow Road was just as good as I'd hoped, with Ghost Valley probably being my number 2.

FF7 and Chrono Cross, they still have their charm and I'll definitely still play them whenever I decide to, but these PS1 titles find themselves in a bit of a no-man's land between acceptably nice looking 16-bit SNES titles and much more polished, non-pixelated PS2 titles.

The Dallas Braden story may be the best of the year, we'll just have to see! Either way, can't help but feel great for him and his family, no matter what he does for the rest of his career he's made it onto a list only 18 other names are on. As for my Blue Jays, they aren't sunk.... yet, so that's always fun .

I would imagine that the soon-to-be coming official OCR embedded album art will look like that. I'll definitely be applying whatever they come up with to all my downloads whenever it's done!

Very cool, this is exactly the kind of thing I would like to do at some point as well. I'm a nut for album art and have been thinking about what the best way to start organizing my numerous OCR tracks for a while now. At the moment I have a generic OCR folder and seperate folders for Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Metroid, and Super Metroid, and really could probably have a few more, it just isn't something I've looked at recently.

I kinda thought the same thing when I was reading the writeup for that DKC2 remix yesterday, irony being that I never played Sonic 3 so Ice Cap doesn't really mean much to me. "Brinstar Red Soil Area" from Super Metroid is the one that I instantly think of, followed by Wily Stage 1 from MM2 (both already mentioned of course, cause really, who wouldn't think of those as well). Schala's theme has that reputation of being "the most mixed source ever," but I'd be curious to know if it actually is or not. Lately I've also started to feel like "Vampire Killer" from Castlevania is making its way up the list as well, but I haven't looked at actual numbers.

Two sides, one is Light, one is Dark... Sorry, couldn't help myself . I find that scene from Season 1 unintentionally funny due to the blank look Walt gives Locke after he does this. At least it is appropriate considering what we seem to getting for next week's episode.

Video was very cool, great job by the crew who filmed it and it looked like a lot of fun for everyone involved. Makes me wonder how many VGM remix music videos we might see in the future, really hit the theme perfectly with the go-karts obviously, and I loved the kid towards the end . As for the album, I don't need any more convincing, I'll be buying next week soon as I'm back I'm on my PC, and halfway across the country at my new address.

, duh! Ok ok, in all seriousness I do think from Sonata of the Damned would work quite well.

Very cool, my PC is being shipped to my new address at the moment so this helped me get some form of TF2 fix . It's very well done though, great idea by the creator, almost makes me want to try something like this for other games.

I can just barely make out 17, it's faint but it's there, I'm 27, decent I guess!

I liked what you came up with, it had a pretty clear focus and and theme and it stuck with it. Not as dramatic as some fan trailers I've seen, but it didn't have to be. I liked the use of black and white with the colored images in the background, nice touch.

As soon as I saw "Search Man" and "Electro" in the same sentence I knew this was going to be for me. And boy is it ever, this is awesome, it sounds like the original yet has all kinds of other things going on, very cool, and I can't wait to see what else you do with this.

What I like about this is that I now have no reason to consider idling, which I was starting to toss around in my head. I'm sure I play enough hours to get the full chance at items per week in this new system so... cool. I wonder what that means as far as random hat drops though, presumably they will be a little more common now, but how much more common. Either way, more items means more scrap which means more hats as well.

heh, first that Schala one, now this one, that's 2 in a week. FF: Pray is a lot more obscure than CT though, I wonder who gave them the idea to sample that.
