    Preferred MP3 Player?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    For those of you that listen to music on the go, what is your MP3 player of choice? Mine is the SanDisk Sansa Fuze, mostly because it was cheap. :tomatoface:

    BUT I also enjoy the fact that you can use micro SD cards so you can keep expanding the memory.

    So what type of MP3 player do you use?

    RECRUITING Crash Bandicoot 3 Project

    in Recruit & Collaborate!

    You know that handling Crash would be difficult as it is? :razz:

    I'm with you, Crash Bandicoot was a HUGE part of my gaming adolescence, and it was my goal since I discovered OCR to push any and all exposure for it. And right now, there are two mixes from the original game (BOTH involving me, may I add :razz: ) that are waiting to get posted onto the site.

    But it's hard because of the complexity of the originals and general structures for them, not to mention a lot of them are percussion heavy. And being a recent member that wants to give some exposure to a game that otherwise doesn't get much love at all, you need to watch out for what you've put yourself in for.

    It won't stop me from giving a few tracks a go, provided I don't overwork myself. Amusingly, I've had this dynamic worldy arrangement idea in my head for the desert town stages roaming in my head for years, but never really had the tools to pull it off; I hope with what I've learnt now, I could attempt it and see how it goes :)

    Yeah, I understand all this, but as long as everyone on the project works at it, we could totally do it :razz: Oh and I'm putting you down for desert town. Glad to have you on the project ;)

    RECRUITING Crash Bandicoot 3 Project

    Ok, updated first post with claims. Send me a WIP whenever you can wip one up (see what I did there? :lol:)

    Crash 3 was the first PS1 game I ever played and I'd love to contribute to this project.

    So if it's okay, I'd love to take either Dingodile, N. Tropy or Motorcycle levels, if nobody else wants. If you want an early draft for a track as some sort of audition, I could make one in a week or so.

    Sure, which one would you want? And a wip would be nice, so as soon as you can get one would be good.

    This is good so far, keep 'em coming!

    RECRUITING Crash Bandicoot 3 Project

    Posted · Edited by uhhh6677

    Hello all, and welcome to the recruitment thread for the Crash Bandicoot 3 project! Crash Bandicoot 3 is one my childhood games that I grew up with, and there are no mixes of any Crash game on OCR! :o So this project will get the CB series some love. Here is a tracklist, claim any track you want and let's goooooooo!

    TRACKLIST:

    Title:

    Warp Room (Claimed by AngelCityOutlaw)

    Medieval (Claimed by Tuberz McGee)

    Underwater:

    China: (Claimed by Arceace)

    Stone Age:

    Pirates and Waverunners:
    Tiny Tiger: (Claimed by Arceace)
    Desert Town (Claimed by Rexy)

    Motorcycle: (Claimed by MEEEEE (uhhh6677))

    Egypt:

    Dingodile (Claimed by hakstock)

    Dr. N. Tropy:

    Flyin' King:
    (This and Flyin' Queen are very similar and don't necessarily needed to be remixed twice)

    Flyin' Queen:

    Future: (Claimed by Crossing)

    Dr. N. Gin:

    Dr. Neo Cortex (Claimed by Mirby)

    Skull Route Theme:

    (The Skull Route is the same for all level themes, so it only needs to be remixed once)

    Bonus Level Theme:

    (The Bonus Level theme is the same for all level themes, so it only needs to be remixed once)

    KEY:

    Red: Claimed with no WIP

    Green: Basic WIP shown

    Orange: Significant WIP shown

    Blue: Done but no WAV

    Purple: WAVd! Go for purple!

    TIMELINE:

    October 31, 2013 is the 15th anniversary of the North American release of CB3, so it would be totally freakin' awesome if the album could come out then. That gives us a little bit over a year and a half to get this thing done, so let's shoot for that! Deadlines will be announced once people start signing up.

    Maverick Rising: HELP stop the Sigma Virus!

    in General Discussion

    I just posted a link to the OCR Sigma page on the 100,000 Strong for Bringing Back Mega Man Legends 3's page on Facebook a few minutes ago. They are the largest collected group of Mega Man fans I can think of, aside from maybe posting on Capcom's wall as well. I wasn't the only person to post there, which is good, since it improves the chances more people will see the link. Hopefully that helps.

    Yeah that was me actually lol. You recommended it earlier so I did it but yeah! Tell everyone! I even emailed The Mega Man Network and asked if they could post it on their site to draw attention. wewt gingrich up in heer

    Facebook likes issues (i.e. "Asking for likes is against the law of the internet! How dare you!")

    I agree that I am not fond of the idea of this, and I expressed a bit of skepticism earlier about it in PM... I didn't think that there would be 3,000 spare people to come around and hit "Like", not to mention all of us on or around OCR have already liked it. Alright, so I saw the number has gone up by about... what.. 50 people? I gotta be honest I forgot how many it started with, but I knew it needed some odd 2800 people and now it needs 2700 some odd people... That's a long way to go and it could take weeks.

    Something that might help -- upload a Youtube video about this, nothing major that will take hours to make. Put an annotation link on it to the facebook page and explain about garnering likes.

    But this was extremely ambitious considering some remixes don't even get 2,000 views depending on the popularity of the game. Average likes on a remix itself evens out to around 100.

    Let's check Samba Primata for example:

    1,913 views

    125 total votes

    I always sound like a wet blanket, that's just how I roll I guess and I don't mean to bring anyone down with any of my observations etc. Ultimately I just like to see my music get released, whether that is a song I have on this album, an album I have coming up next that is affected by a month waiting for likes, or even songs of my friends that will be affected. :-P I know that's an overly dramatic way to look at this but eh. NAO MAO< I CAN'T HELP how I feel

    Anyway, in conclusion, I'd like it again if I could but I've already liked it max times. I hope you manage to find the 2700 people you need before things get too out of hand. There's no shame in releasing it before hitting 27k or without ever hitting 27k.

    Yes, yes, and moar yes. If this had to be done, I think 25k would've been a little bit more realistic than 27k. Even then, this shouldn't have been done at all. I was led to believe that OCRemix released music for fun. A passion. Now they're trying to get their numbers/popularity up before releasing anything. To say that I'm disappointed is an understatement. This album has turned into a "we'll release it only if you make us more popular" kinda thing. I really believed, like I said, that OCRemix released for the passion of it, no matter how popular they are. It's kinda like when an indie artist goes mainstream, and they change they're style to sell more. Sorry for the rant, and I'm SUPER excited for this thing, I just needed to express my opinion. woot
