  1. I can honestly say that this has never happened to me. If the original is good I'll keep liking it regardless. I mean, I still like Chrono Trigger.

    Running away...

    Well, ok. To be perfectly honest I've never had it happen to me either.

    My point is that if a sequel sucks it can damage the the original experience. One example that comes to mind is the last installment of 'The Matrix'. Yeah, the first matrix was still a great move but the story as a whole was devastated by Revolutions. I frowned upon the entire plot because of that last movie.

  2. Sonic & Knuckles Lover Reef by pixietricks, zircon, Geoffrey Taucer, D-Lux, and Shonensamurai (one of my all time favorites)

    Megaman 2 Chillout by SEDUCTiON

    Earthbound Home Again by Dale North (Is pretty awesome)

    Starfox Godspeed by The Wingless (not that lyrical but the intro is soo bad ass)

    For vocal remixes those are really great. There are more vocal mixes than this of course but remixes with vocals aren't very prominent on OCR.

    Now, if you're looking for good guitar arrangements things get a bit wider:

    Final Fantasy 7 Lunatic Moon by Sixto Sounds and zircon

    Final Fantasy Finally Home by Darangen (someone should so put some lyrics to this one)

    F-Zero Blue Vacation by LousySpy

    Kirby's Adventure The Ballad of Sir Kibbles by Suzumbachi (absolutely top notch)

    Lifeforce Tactile Freefall by Midee and prozax

    Mega Man X Brainsick Metal by Protricity (obviously)

    Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney This Feeling by OA (The guitar solo is epic and the fidelity is incredible)

    Earthworm Jim Acrophobia by about:blank (unorthodox, but perhaps the best guitar arrangement OCR has ever produced)

    Seiken Densetsu 3 Electrion by FIDGAF and TO

    Seiken Densetsu 3 Obsession Nocturnal by Sixto Sounds (if you're looking for something rugged)

    Sonic 3 Eastern Ice Field by Big Giant Circles (not super guitary but it has the resemblance and it's a breathtaking remix I almost feel obligated to suggest it)

    Street Fighter 2 Vegas Ballad by McVaffe

    Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo Flying Heaven by zircon

    Wild Arms Not Alone in the World by Dale North and Jaxx

    Enjoy.

  3. Again, missing the point. You can beat the guy, but then you can also beat a puppy with a newspaper. How is that fun?

    Also Global, that's totally fine if the person is dumb enough not to learn to guard for that move, but think how stupid it would be if you did the same move over and over and he still wails on you. You feel dumb and he probably feels an empty win.

    Not at all. zircon is 100% right. In fact, I'll go a step further and say cheap wins are the funnest ones. They're the ones that make you laugh your ass off even if it is against a noob.

  4. I've been thinking about this recently, and I came to the conclusion in that yeah, a sequel CAN be bad, but does it necessarily ruin the original? I mean, I loved the hell out of the original Star Wars Trilogy, wasn't a fan of the latest, and I'm a big fan of Final Fantasy IV and VII, but I don't think the sequels should prevent you from going back, watching the originals and enjoying them.

    Let them create their sequel. If it's good, hurray. If it sucks, well hopefully they won't make another but that doesn't change the fact that the first ones were good.

    You're accounting too much to game play. "Hey, why not make another game!"

    Look at it like a novel that you thoroughly enjoyed that had a great ending. Just an epic story. If the author comes in and makes a sequel that ruins the original experience you're going to want to kick him in the ass.

  5. Akuma is a beast, especially if you're new to the game.

    Jump in and nick him and get out. His fireballs aren't as terrifying as they seem but if your jumping at random they're gonna' fuck you up. Make sure when you fight him there is sure reasoning in your jumping and he'll become much easier to deal with.

  6. I used to like that song, both of them. Until I finally snapped from hearing them the billionth time on the radio...

    That's exactly why I won't listen to local radio stations. Nothing against the stations personally, but it just gets grating hearing the same 10 songs in as little as 2 days time.

    Sorry, does that sound picky?

    Yeesh...

    Not at all and I'm exactly the same way. The radio just ruins songs via repetition.

  7. You didn't remember the lyrics correctly or I'd have known in a heart beat.

    It goes:

    I get knocked down

    But I get up again

    You're never going to keep me down

    Edit:

    Chumbawamba - Tub Thumping

    We'll be singing

    When we're winning

    We'll be singing

    I get knocked down

    But I get up again

    You're never going to keep me down

    Pissing the night away

    He drinks a whisky drink

    He drinks a vodka drink

    He drinks a lager drink

    He drinks a cider drink

    He sings the songs that remind him of the good times

    He sings the songs that remind him of the better times:

    "Oh Danny Boy, Danny boy..."

    I get knocked down

    But I get up again

    You're never going to keep me down

    Pissing the night away

    He drinks a whisky drink

    He drinks a vodka drink

    He drinks a lager drink

    He drinks a cider drink

    He sings the songs that remind him of the good times

    He sings the songs that remind him of the better times:

    "Don't cry for me next door neighbor..."

    I get knocked down

    But I get up again

    You're nevre going to keep me down

    We'll be singing

    When we're winning

    We'll be singing
