  1. HEY. It's not my fault that he had smiling Indians on his side.
  2. Larry, you are something stealth and ninja like. For anyone interested, I have analoq's choice for PRCA:6 and jesus, it's a doozy.... When analoq wins, everyone loses (except analoq).
  3. This one is a tier 4 in VGMix, WAAAAY too low for the proficiency it has. Sure, the samples are less than stellar, and the rock section is haphazardly performed. That said, this is an awesome mix of THE OVERWORLD THEME fom FF8. Actually, it's a remix of "Breezy" (yeah, who'da thunk it?), the Balamb town theme.
  4. Nope. If I remember right, that distinction would belong to this. (Actually, Rayza's holds the record at 6 hours, but yes, I was exaggerating. )
  5. I remember MMX being freaking hard when I was a young 'un. But I just beat it, and it was still difficult, but well within the bounds of reason. The dog shouldn't give you too much trouble if you stay on the walls. I used the charged up Chameleon Sting and the wind attack for Sigma. Or you could just Hadoken them both.
  6. Well, that was an interlude...the majority of the actual song seems to have an original melody. But hey, music is music. Excellent work, Star.
  7. I think I've previously mentioned my thoughts on this mix...although it's a great piece of music, my main issue is that the source material really doesn't seem to be the focus at all. It's more of an original with a slight cameo of the Shenmue theme (the ReMixer also admits it's a little "subtle"). In fact, the theme isn't even present in its entirety...the entire second half of the original melody has been omitted. And when it finally shows up about a minute into the song, it's more of a background thing...an accompaniment to the main song. Other than that, this mix is pretty much entirely original material. Not that there's anything wrong with that (the guidelines only require a "recognizable resemblence"), I just wish the game music would've had a more prominent role in this piece. I don't mean to sound whiney or nitpicky...that's just how I feel, is all. And I did enjoy Arkimedes Halo mix, in which the source material was the actual focus. I hope he releases more like it soon.
  8. I can sympathize with how hard it is to find both a good piano AND decent recording equipment in the same place. Which is why I'm lucky to have friends with awesome SoundFonts.
  9. Haha...you know we love you, Larry. Oh, and thanks for the pimp last week.
  10. Wow, direct post, congrats. I'm jealous...bah, I'll get it one of these days. Although I don't think a piano solo has ever been direct-posted...not even Trial in Concert or Live from the Yggdrasil. I'm really starting to wonder if it's actually possible...
  11. Hey, thanks for the comments, everyone! Dunno what's up with the hiss...might've been an encoding glitch or something. If anyone wants to take a shot at cleaning it up, here's the original source MIDI. (Right-click, Save As...) Knock yourself out.
  12. Not to threadjack the review, but comments like these make me doubt all the "this site is illegal" comments I sometimes see here. Well, Romero didn't compose Keen's music. Although in this case, it's okay anyway because Bobby Prince doesn't mind, therefore implying consent (but it'd still be safer to get it in writing). However, just because one guy is okay with other people messing with his compositions doesn't mean everybody else will.
  13. It's not often a remix gives me actual chills. Congratulations on successfully doing so, DD.
  14. Time for reruns on Ormgas!
  15. You made Emmanuel cry. You're a bad mens, Larry!
  16. You know, when the last post in the ReViews forum is by djpretzel, that's supposed to mean there's a new ReMix up. Curse you, djp, for getting my hopes up.
  17. OH GNOZ, ITS NOT TEH FF/CT/ZELDA(MORE LIEK CELDA, AM I RITE)/SONIC, I HAVE NEVER PLAYED IT B4.
  18. Isn't the point of solos supposed to be that they're improvised? But yes...amazing arrangement. It's been forever since I've actually heard a real bass solo. They should be proud of what they've done here.
