  1. OCR wants different arrangements, not "IT HAS TO PLEASE EVERY SINGLE EFFING PERSON ON THE SITE" arrangements.

    In all seriousness, there ARE remixes with stellar production but absolutely no deviation from the source other than additives. I would shake my fist at the judges for that, but since the primary complaint of my subbed mix by them was that I was dangerously close to conservative but my additives saved me (so I didn't get a single NO :D), I guess I shouldn't complain. xD I didn't think my mix was that conservative.

    Not that SonicThHedgog's remix is conservative. It's fairly liberal, just way too repetitive.

    Calm down lol. Sonic should make the Barney theme into a dubstep tune. That would be killer.

    Seriously.

  2. yeah, as long as the difficulty cure is not that of an asymptote... the gamecube version was easy, then got near impossible all the sudden.

    I found GX to be fairly easy all around.

    Then again I played religiously

  3. The reality is that good production by itself won't get you past the judges.

    Scrolling through some remixes old and new that are on this site, I'd say that's sometimes true and sometimes false. There's some mixes on this site that have stellar production but are otherwise badly butchered interpretations of the original. Some of them I can't even listen to. On the other hand, there are some tracks on this site that are great songs to begin with, enhanced by great original parts but the production is kinda bad. In my opinion, it's better to fall into the latter category. Though a person who's more of an audio engineer might say the former category is better.

    Anywho,

    Got to be honest Sonic I'm not diggin' this track that much. The phrasing is bad. The melodies don't have much flow. Like you're Primus Manus (is that the spelling?) track you did a couple months back, it just feels too random. I get sort of dizzy listening to it.

    But around I think.....1:15 or so I was totally

  4. I love Tekken. It's just so awesome.

    Anyway, I thought for the hell of it I'd work on an electronic-metal cover of the playstation version of Jin Kazama's theme from Tekken 3. I liked the ps1 version better than arcade. Which is a rarity. Currently there is no real intro or metal. I won't break out the guitar till I got the rest sounding right.

    There ain't much here just yet, but how's it going so far?

  5. if you're putting this much effort into it you'd be much better off taking the engine and making a metroid-like game instead of a remake of super metroid

    this would be better for everyone because

    a) why would anyone want to play a remake of super metroid when they can just play super metroid

    B) a standalone game of any quality will further any career aspirations towards game production that anybody on your team has then a remake of a nintendo game that will in all likelihood garner a c&d soon enough

    THIS. Well said Bleck.

    Plus, most of the games on store shelves these days ARE remakes or sequels it seems.

  6. how much a game sold has never and will never really be a reliable indicator of how good it is

    stop being an idiot

    I never argued the better selling games were higher quality. Bam.

    there. no need to be making some huge ass argument out of this. also nice job deleting your calvin and hobbes posts

    1 2 3 4 I DECLARE A FLAME WAR!

    The amount of nerd rage in this thread is just pure awesome.

  7. Yeah people should stop judging stuff by how much money it makes, then the world would realize Death Metal is the best and only worthwhile genre of music

    Are we talking Arch Enemy, Scar Symmetry, Mercenary, In Flames (Jester Race Era) type death metal? If so, don't be a hater.

  8. Like the Journey cover. Lead vocalist sounds familiar...

    Anywho,

    Zergonaleash's post made me think of this Eleanor Rigby cover.

    Blind Guardian cover: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-LbNqzBFk0

    Great posts! I think I have found my favorite cover ever.
