  1. I have a TON of reasons for listening to video game related music. Here are the top 3... *For various pictures and other situations, it can set the mood perfectly fine, but with the added advantage of familiarity, after over a decade of playing video games. *I can only approve of 2% of all Dubstep tracks (or a 1 out of 50 ratio). Nearly all those 2% were made by OverClocked ReMix. *After the rise of dubstep and autotune in circa 2007, the quality of commercial music bottomed out at an all-time low. Just when I think it can't get any worse, Justin Bieber made some new garish beats that, for lack of a better word, I just call "Biebercussion". It's recently occurred to me that other "artists" might be trying to rip off Bieber's signature beats since circa 2010. Commercial music has devolved into a blatant cash-grab. Apart from independent musicians, video game music is one of the few regions that still get composed with effort these days.
  2. Mr. 0134, I did the next best thing and downloaded it for the Virtual Console because my Nintendo 64 had been lost. One of these days, they need to ReMix Master Hand's Residence*. *I call that place "Tonatiuh's Altar". Tonatiuh is a Mesoamerican Sun deity. I call the Polygon stage "Metztli's Pyramid". Metztli is a Mesoamerican Moon deity.
  3. It may not be the best game of all time, or even the best Nintendo game of the past decade, but I'll be darned if it isn't the best party game ever since Mario Party 2.
  4. It's been a while since I heard this; Today is the 1 year anniversary of ARMed and DANGerous and the 16th anniversary of the Japanese release of Wild ARMs. Both the source material and this ReMix can set quite the studious mood. I personally would've posted this in August or September, for those would've been the beginning of the school year. And right now final exam season is over!
  5. Say, for example, that someone designed a game that included a labyrinth within a dimly-lit factory that manufactures industrial chemicals, and the main mechanic was a series of on/off switches that would either put the machinery into full swing (ex. conveyor belts you couldn't run against, and must find an alternate route) or defuse all your explosives if you tried to plant them (thus preventing you from breaking cracked objects and walls)... and used Blast Beatdown as the BGM. How would you react?

  6. I usually take spring to be April 1 through June 30, not January 30 through April 29. I think Pikmin 3 will take about 2 months longer you expect, ocre. Personally, I think it'll take until June (the last month of Q2, and if you ask me, the last month of spring.) To Mirby: It's my understanding that it's too expensive to run servers for both Wii and Wii U, so it would make sense if they were just moving Wii Virtual Console games to the Wii U's VC.
  7. It's in the "To be judged" queue under the "Judges' Decisions" thread. I think there are three Ocarina of Time singles that have passed the panel already: "Brevity is... Wit", "I Can't Go On (I'll Goron)", and "My Old Kakariko Home". I thought the next Ocarina of Time ReMixes to be judged might've been off the Ocarina of Time album. I can hardly tell because the individual track progress post under the Ocarina project is a month out of date.

  8. Is "The Organ Grinder" a Shadow Temple ReMix for the Ocarina of Time project, by any chance?

  9. If Smash 4 had a good Mekanos map, Cracker Launchers with as much power as Brawl (like the Karbine owls' cannons), and this track, you'd have my kind of battle!
  10. Here it is, the moment I've been waiting for ALL YEAR! Everything the trailers promised it would be, and everything I'd hoped for! I don't care if they release Balance and Ruin before the end of this month, I'll probably be listening to this album (along with all my other favorites) for as long as they're still on the net! If the powers that be let us download freewared music and set it to the background in Smash 4, I'll even add some Double the Trouble tracks!
  11. For me to consider the Wii's library fully developed, it took about 17 or 18 games and 5 years. Two of those 17-some-odd games were Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword. I'll probably wait until it has 10 games worth buying, or until Smash 4 gets released, or until the price underpasses $225, or until most of the hardware problems subside, whichever comes third.

  12. After getting to the non-level themes in the GBA discs, I've also heard Party's Over There, another of my favorite non-level themes. The imagery I get is a block party at 20:00 in an affluent community with food being served on tables in huge rectangular tins kept warm with portable stoves. Funky's Tricks reminds me of an upscale spa party high up in the mountains or along a coast, in the early evening hours. Cranky's Mojo is so easy to get lost in; 4 minutes blow away in 2, and of course, the Far East sections are the best part!
  13. I'm expecting it'll take a LONG time for the Wii U to develop a healthy software library. Most likely, it'll first be worth buying in circa 2015, around the time of Super Smash Bros. 4.

  14. I've waited all year for this day! Today, I've been listening to the SNES non-level themes ("Level themes" include Stilt Village, Enchanted Riverbank, Water World, and Nuts & Bolts, and I'm starting with everything else.) What I've heard so far is everything I'd hoped for. Jason Covenant's vocals in Banana Revolution: Live in Kongcert were surprisingly talented by the standards of whatever technology he used. When I heard there was a song called "Bash the Bastards!", I expected either rock N roll or a zany track. But the African-themed melody that was teased, and of course the whole song, was just as great. I'm SO glad I didn't have to wait 'till '013, let alone '019, for this!
  15. To The Oinkness: What is shown in the previews of Let It Beat is a far cry from your original WIP. It's not as edgy, but it has a more simple charm to it. Effective immediately, I've pulled ocremix off my Favorites bar so I don't click it absent-mindedly or otherwise in error like I did several times over the past 10 days. That way I can wait more gracefully for the window of my final prediction as to when Double The Trouble will drop: Between February 15 and March 25. I should've taken O-Clocked off my favorites a long time ago. From now on, I will only visit O-Clocked on the first day of every month by googling OverClocked Remix manually until this project is out. I also just remembered that ocremix.org Version 6 will go up within the next 6-8 months.
  16. Then I'll start by revisiting O-Clocked on Veteran's Day to see if the trailer is posted by then. I'm not saying I necessarily think it likely, but if I only visit O-Clocked 2-3 times a month through March 2013, I won't be bogged down quite as badly with anticipation. I'll be back to being routinely logged in once Double the Trouble drops. But until then, I'm trimming my visits down to no more than thrice a month!
  17. Will this album be dropping all of a sudden with no further alerting signs leading up to it? Or will it be coordinated with "beacons" such as an announcement on the front page (such as a posting of the final preview) in the last 3-7 days before it releases?
  18. I also believe that each album, based on number of discs, must be allowed a certain number of days in O-Clocked's spotlight. Is there a minimum amount of days a 5 disc OverClocked Remix Arrangement album must be released apart from (before/after) two adjacent OCRA's?
  19. I don't know the trend, so I ask this of whoever would know: When hard copies of an album are made, do the physical copies generally come before the online release? Or does the web release come first?
  20. Because of how deep in the shadow of the Original Trilogy it was, Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones was #5 on the Bottom 40 Films of 2002. How much worse could an Episode 7 or an Episode Negative 2 be? Well, The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith had 57, 67, and 80 percent approval ratings respectively. Had they stood alone, they might've been regarded as some of the best films of their respective years. In the case of Revenge of the Sith, all time. This proves that putting the Star Wars name on the Prequel Trilogy did more to harm than help. If Disney makes another Trilogy, I imagine that none of them will achieve more than 45% approval rating, and they'll average about 30%... and then it won't be a matter of if they receive RAZZIE nominations, but how many!
  21. They might as well just port it over to online. One of these days, not just the gaming community, but indeed all of America's commoners will see the internet as the probable future of entertainment, and television as a relic of the past to fall back on should the internet be somehow mysteriously obliterated. But most importantly, why didn't X-Play put more effort into their show?
  22. I wasn't motivated by attention. I really wasn't convinced [mu]Torrent was safe before. Anorax is right, it was a rant of paranoia until I was disarmed. I should've told the community years ago that I have a long history of over-worrying, anxiety, and fearing things that are harmless. I may be prone to irrational fear, but I can assure you I am not an attention whore.
  23. Maybe the mirror sites, but I doubt a website dedicated to a niche interest such as remixing video game soundtracks would be an effective way to lure massive crowds into a disease pit. And if you thought that perhaps O-Clocked was some pathogenic science lab full of diseases, why would you join the community with such a degree of distrust? Besides, if I want to find a ReMix, I'll go to the YouTube page for it instead (no point having the YouTube channel otherwise). And you're all forgetting it's nothing related to O-Clocked I'm targeting; It's ONLY [mu]torrent, *** ****it! If you think [mu]torrent is diseased, tell it to Neblix, the one who directed me to that software. YOUR CLAIM IS FULL OF HOLES!!!
