  1. Legend of Zelda could do it. Especially Ocarina of Time. How about a Mega Man movie? Good ol' random shooting.
  2. A retardedly ambient Death Wind - I love the source track. It feels like it wants to be ambient but strong - like a hurricane or something. Always wanted to hear that. As a side-note, an F-ZERO album project would be win in itself, regardless of style. Death Wind:
  3. How? Most of the games were just little beeps 'n' boops. I mean, if you've got any ideas, fire away, but...I can't see how this is ReMixable. Personally, I'm a huge fan of Nintendo's take on the G&W sound ( ), but I don't know how else to take the sounds.
  4. http://ocremix.org/forums/member.php?u=33223 Anyone getting married in Edmonton?
  5. This is my second-favourite djp mix (sorry, but the number one is still Koan of Drums, on Summoning of Spirits) - electrorchestra is normally a tough one to pull off...but this is pulled off spectacularly. Fantastic work, djp! With luck, we'll be getting more like this in the near future!
  6. That. Just this song remixed in different styles. Post 'em all on YouTube and there you go - OCR wins Internetz.
  7. ...My pants are dirty now. Thanks, guys. No, serious - holy SHIT, son! This is FUCKIN' NOBLE! I've already decided to not go to class tomorrow. In fact, I'm not leaving my apartment. I'm doing this nostalgia-style - just me, DKC 2 and Serious Monkey Business. And pizza. I may or may not return to this post - I'll try to remember - but on first listens everything is frickin' awesome! Thanks Geoffrey and Bahamut - you guys should be proud of yourselves for producing this colon-crushing album of victorious mega-win.
  8. Before I forget to ask, is there a difference between PC/Xbox Live/PSN for kids? How big is the difference, if at all. Are kids from one machine more annoying/common/obnoxius than kids from other machines? Thanks again for the input, folks!
  9. Neblix's comment struck me - Is this a common association - maturity and studiousness, thereby immaturity and video games in youth? I'm getting a sense too that people are playing different games; is there a difference there? Put another way, does it make a big difference whether a game is co-operative (TF2, for example) versus non-competitive (say a free-for-all)? I'm also interested in what sort of 'assholery' (a bastardization, I know...) older versus younger gamers engage in. For example, in your experience, do kids or adults swear more? Which group tends to be tactically stupid (i.e.: stealing vehicles/items)? Or is there a difference - does a stupid adult gamer do the same things that a stupid kid gamer does? Finally, is there a difference in your mind as to why people do this? For example, is the kid gamer cursing everyone for the same reason that an adult gamer would? Thanks again for your input! And, once again, please let me know (by PM or here) if you are uncomfortable with being cited in a paper.
  10. Okay, so the idea I'm getting here is: 1) Gamers should be segregated online by age due to issues of maturity and/or mature content. 2) On the whole, younger gamers are less considerate than older gamers, although exceptions exist. 3) There's a sense that younger gamers are deliberately offensive (teabagging, cursing unnecessarily) in an attempt to act older than they are. 4) Youth with mics are inherently more annoying than youth sans the mic. 5) Younger gamers who do not 'act their age' are fine; and 6) Younger gamers have a bad reputation in a given online community. Is this the right idea? Also, to expand into MMORPGs, is this list still accurate in, say, World of Warcraft? Thanks for your comments, too. They are much appreciated.
  11. Yeah, but I can't taint the research. If I said 'frickin' 12-year olds are ruining vidya games with their retarded trollery' I colour the research. The idea is, I monitor the responses to gain insight which may or may not bolster the opinion I already have. The disclaimer simply means I can't contribute an opinion for fear of tainting the data flow.
  12. What's your opinion on this sort of thing? Say, you're playing Team Fortress 2, and a 12-year old comes on. What does that mean to you? (i.e.: what do you think the 12-year old would do? Is this 12-year old annoying? How do you know the player is young? Do you go out of your way to interact with them? Is age a variable in the 'goodness' of a player? If you are a young gamer, do you experience discrimination online?) Disclaimer: I'll be using these results (as well as in-game responses and other sources) to do part of a research paper. I may cite your user name (unless you don't want me to, in which case I will not). Because this is research, I won't put any of my own opinions on here. Thanks for helping me out!
  13. Umm... What the balls was that? I think that was epic - was that epic? Someone 'splain, please.
  14. I love the new theme song, man.

  15. Oh, wow...d'oy. Not the greatest tags in the world, to be honest. 'Cello'? 'Sexy'? Didn't know they were there. Also, I put this here because I merely airing the idea as a possibility. Mea culpa. Sorry about that.
  16. Fair enough. I don't listen to metal, so I don't know where it goes...I understand the difficulties. Just airing the idea. I didn't know that tagging existed - thanks, Moseph!
  17. I don't mind doing it, but it has to be useful to be worth the time. Plus, after http://ocremix.org/forums/showthread.php?p=651826#post651826 I feel inspired to work! I think this song is a communist plot.
  18. Can this be my theme song, too? Or, like this played in reverse or something? Krypt, how can you not want this as a theme song? This is easily the single greatest anthem ever! I can just see it now - here comes Hu Jintao (Premier of China), off the plane...and, this song. The Queen of Great Britain meets President Obama...and here's the song again. Oh, please IBBIAZ? Can this reversed be my song? Or like modified somehow, because it's Gollgagh's now...this would be perfect for my graduation! I'll walk up to get my diploma, and...oh, man.
  19. Happy birthday! With Portal changed up (i.e.: updates), I really hope the cake isn't a lie for you!
  20. Is there any way to sort tunes by genre on OCR? I ask because I think it might not be an all-bad idea. Say you're looking for house music, or acoustic, or whatever - the way things are now, if you want to see if there's a popular song in your preferred style (say, Gerudo Valley), you have to click on all of them. I don't know if that's intentional (so as to force everyone to listen to all the songs until they hit one in the style they want), and I'd be more than willing to compile a list of genres and tunes that fit them. I'm not sure what sort of genres we'd want, or if anyone could work with me so as to create a consensus of sorts: hence, this thread. Right now, I have this list: Electronica: - House - Trance - Ambient - Experimental - Downbeat - Drum 'n' Bass (DnB) [not sure whether dance should go in, too] Classical: - Chamber - Orchestral - Live Solo - Piano - Live Solo - Other - A Cappela [here, I'm stuck. Romantic/Baroque - do we have enough baroque tunes to distinguish?] Rock: - Classic sound - Guitar - Sheddage (I don't know a better word for this) - Folk Rock - Heavy Rock - [Metal] [debating sticking metal in here. Thoughts?] World/Folk: [no categories yet; does this even need any categories?] Would such a thing be wanted? And, if so, I'm willing to set to work on it, but if anyone's interested in giving me a hand and/or giving me some genres to work with, let me know.
  21. Fair enough, but what of the rest of her? I mean, the legs are fine, but she's not able to take hits to the chest (the energy balls kill her) or head (I checked by ducking near an energy ball). One of those things fall on her and she's cooked. I don't know how likely it is that she's okay - it's possible, certainly, depending on a host of scenarios that we don't see, but it seems kinda 50/50 for lived/died. In short, this is a damn good cliffhanger.
  22. So, I booted up Portal just because of the update - I don't quite understand what to do with the new radios, though. I keep carrying them around, but I'm not getting any transmissions...I'll keep trying, though. Aperture Science has a website? That's awesome! I love how Valve throws its clues about in so many places. Only thing is, unless the Internets are very astute, we may miss them all entirely... EDIT: Apparently, the company spends $975,000 on something called INTUB-XLG and $1075 on flour. Then again, they did start out making shower curtains.
  23. I don't know if it's of any use to you, but I have a REALLY, REALLY 70s-looking plaid blazer (burnt orange and everything!). When I saw the plaid muffin, this long-lost relic of my high-school days resurfaced. You're welcome to it, if you'd like - I'm going back to my parents' fairly soon (after my hand operation), so let me know ASAP and I'll dig around for it. I'm not certain where it is, but I'll definitely give it the old college try. If I find any other old high school drama props, I'll let you know and see if I can't ship 'em or whatever. And that blazer may need a washing...it's been in storage for a while...
