Couple years back I got a job where I had to wake up really early in the morning (4:30 sometimes earlier) for about 7 months straight. I also resorted to OCR music to cheer me up and withdraw some of the monotony out of it all from day to day.
I switched it up a lot at the time but here are some I really enjoyed waking up to:
Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney This Feeling by OA http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01870/
Pictionary Person Place or Groove by The The Orichalcon http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01548/
Earthworm Jim Acrophobia by about:blank http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01568/
Illusions of Gaia Will's Journey by Wintermute http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR00894/
Secret of Evermore A Whisper and a Shadow by DarkeSword http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01343/
Link's Awakening Clash At the Mountains by Zircon http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01426/
Seiken Densetsu 3 Within The Fable by Destiny http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01103/
Seiken Densetsu 3 Electrion by FIDGAF and The Orichalcon http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01237/
I concluded that waking up to up tempo remixes that are still peaceful sets the best mood for me in the morning. You need something that works it's way into some goodies and gives you a moment to yawn and stretch not something that makes you want to jump out of bed and kick your speakers in because you was still tired. When I tried really fast paced heavier mixes I often would just end up turning the volume way way down or turning it off all together.
The remixes above are tried and true and are sure to put you in a good early morning mood.
Hope that helps and good luck Army brat.

I pay very close attention to soundtracks when I play video games and watch movies. A game can still be a lot of fun not having a really great sound track but the best games have a soundtrack that sucks you in at all the right times and the rest of the time just constantly testifies to the game itself.
I'm looking at you Chrono Trigger.

Welcome to the scene. There are plenty of artists around here I think you'll like them. Hope you enjoy the forums.
Nice handle by the way.

My crowd moment: I attracted my entire dorm floor playing the xbox Ninja Gaiden -- the action was so fluid compared to everything else that it was just enchanting.
Hope you was practiced up so you didn't just die constantly while everyone was watching.

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest, definitely. Hearing the boss theme as a kid renting that game was like going on a sugar high.
I can honestly say it was exactly the same for me. Same reaction and same first game.
-
What this means is that all of you new members that don't know of him need to go and promptly download all of his remixes so you can know how great he was like the rest of us.
RIP Reuben.

Oh oops, you said single player..

A school assembly/party my junior year of high school. The game was Super Smash Bros. Melee. My brother and I challenged any other two people there to a two on two match and we showed off a massive 10lb bag of assorted candy that would go to anyone who could win us.
3 lives stock, 2:30 time limit, no items, best of 3 matches. I wouldn't really have a way of knowing how many people gathered to watch the mayhem but it was a lot.
We didn't ever lose. Hearts were broken and tears were shed. Good thing I didn't go to high school in a big city or I'm sure I'd have gotten crushed.

Duckhunt, Super Mario Bros, Tetris on the Gameboy, and for some reason Boulderdash are the games that stand out as my first encounters.
I remember some of my uncles having Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos and getting really mad and breaking stuff, but it was far too difficult for someone my age at that time so I never really played it.

At least make the extra content downloadable for the 360 version.
lol not gonna happen what am i thinking
Chances are it's too much information but I dunno.

It isn't so much Sony's doing as it's what Darkesword already mentioned. They had Microsoft subsidize the development costs through a timed exclusivity deal, and delivered what was essentially an incomplete game. They pulled the same shtick with Eternal Sonata as well.
Of course one could argue that the devs had a schedule to stick to and had to leave out a lot of stuff(there's plenty of proof that they did just that all over), but in an era of internet-enabled consoles and DLC, it's pretty stupid that they wouldn't have the foresight to at least throw the 360 owners a bone and offer the additional content as an add-on somewhere down the line. I sure wouldn't have a problem with forking over another 10, 15, or 20 bucks for that. That only makes smart business sense and would do a lot for consumer goodwill, of course if Tales Studio was known for its good business acumen, then they probably wouldn't be near oblivion right now.
I'm sure you are much more informed on all the details than I am. It just seems like it happens a lot.
It happened with Ninja Gaiden Sigma I and II. To be honest, that doesn't bother me either except for that they made Sigma I so damn much easier than Ninja Gaiden Black. They should have made it just as hard so everyone else would have to suffer as I had to suffer. It bothered me that they dulled the difficulty down so much when I played through it on my friends PS3.
Mind you, it was still really fun and I still think it's great that the PS3 crowed gets to have the Ninja Gaiden experience and all.

Hmmm.. I'm going to have to say Duckhunt.
Wow, that was a long, long time ago.
-
Like I said, it's hard if even possible to tell the difference unless you have really nice equipment. If you do it becomes a lot more transparent.
I would never attempt to have my entire music library in FLAC, definitely not worth the trouble. But having a few of your favorite songs and remixes in lossess is kinda fun.
-
It seems like Sony is getting better and better at doing this to exclusive titles, which by the way; doesn't bother me in the least.
Congratulations, PS3 bitches.
-
I suppose people can have that preference if they want. Too each there own and all that, but it sounds like naiveté to me.
-
Interestingly, there are apparently some findings which indicate youth today actually preferred the compressed sound of MP3s to lossless/CD.
As far as sound is concerned you mean? Or just for the fact that having a music library in FLAC or other lossless file types takes a huge amount of hard drive space in comparison to mp3's.
-
I feel like shit, but I blame the heat wave... Can't stand heat plus humidity.
The heat combined with your birthday... sounds like a perfectly legitimate excuse to drink ice cold beer and/or make icy cocktail shakes with lots of vodka or rum in them.
-
Not sure why I didn't recommend Ninja Gaiden II for the 360 in my earlier post, but yeah. It's a fucking awesome game.
-
Happy birthday RD. Do you feel a year smarter? That's what I want to know. I heard when you start getting close to 30 you're suppose to get a year wiser as well as a year older.
I know right? What a pain in the ass.
Happy b-day to you fire dudes too.
-
Like Zircon said, for most people they probably won't be able to tell the difference. You have to have really nice equipment to really distinguish the difference between a decent quality mp3 and a flac.
I have excellent headphones both portables and cans for when I'm at my computer, and a decent (albeit old) sound card as well. So I support this effort.
-
I'm a fan of FLAC whenever I can get it as well.
-
On the fourth of July? Wtf dood...How did you do it? Your mom had you premature just so you could be born on the fourth of July, i know it.
Anyways, score. Happy birthday Taucer.

Borderlands on my 360 is the funnest I have ever had with a FPS and it has lots and lots of replay.
Not sure what you already own or if you're more asking for XBLA recommendations but... Mass Effect 1 and 2 obviously.
-
I heard it sucked pretty seriously hard.
What are some good songs to wake up too?
