    If this is anything like how Xenogears sounds, I need to get a copy. Like, 3 years ago. When I first listened to this, I got subtle Chrono Trigger vibes. And, lo and behold, the same Mitsuda. Excellent! 

    Anyways. A warm and sensitive soundscape, with orchestral timbres, delicately done progression and transitions, and some lovely dynamics. An ethereal atmosphere that's made almost human by expressive intensity, particularly at 1:12. Solid. The choir parts give me chills, and it's pretty well balanced. Nice work here!

    I absolutely love the Chrono Trigger soundtrack, and if anything, Xenogears is arguably even better. Albeit, it's a bit darker, which isn't surprising given the tone of the game itself, but if you like the music of Chrono Trigger, you'll love Xenogears music.

    @Aki-FRGreat remix!  If you're looking to submit it to the panel, you may need to spice it up a bit, as it may be too conservative for their tastes, but I would mention one of the Workshop Mods if you want them to provide specific feedback.

  2. Yea!  More Reminiscity!  

    My standard caveat: I don't have technical music expertise to be able to give a ton of advice about it, but as a layperson, the main instrument (the wind instrument) sounds a little too pronounced over the rest of the track.  I don't know any of the technical verbiage to use to explain how to fix it, so hopefully someone like @Gario comes along and provides more constructive advice. :)

    I love the direction that you're going with this, though!  I hope you keep working on it!

  3. The only game missing that I think of as a quintessential Genesis game is Spider-Man Vs. the Kingpin, but with all of the licensing hoops likely required to get it on the mini, I'm not surprised it's absent.  The rest of the lineup looks incredible, though.

  4. I loved reading about that, and I really enjoyed the movie, as did my wife.  My 8 year old son wants to go back and see it several more times.  I'm honestly impressed at how well they did a live-action Pokemon movie, which, before this movie was announced, I didn't think was possible without it becoming another Dragonball Evolution debacle.

  5. Gunstar Heroes was such a hyped game back in the day.  I guess it hasn't aged that well since I rarely hear any praise for that game anymore.

    Overall, I am pretty excited about this, though.  I've played through NES and SNES games a lot in recent years thanks to emulation and/or Nintendo eShop, so those minis didn't really do it for me, but playing Genesis games on that big boomerang controller again would be amazing.

  6. Wow, I didn't mean to derail the topic so much, but I'm thrilled that there's so much love for NES Godzilla out there!  Hopefully the remix album will materialize one day, but Motherpluckin' B does have a sweet, sweet remix of the game's ending credits in the meantime:

    Good lord, SaGa Frontier.

    Have fun figuring THAT game out, folks...

    (It's a fun and less unforgiving game than others in the series, it just doesn't really make any sense or is unfinished)

    One of my favorite JRPGs.  I must have played through it dozens of times.  The learning curve was quite steep, though, especially when I was a sophomore in high school when it first came out.  American audiences tend to have more difficulty with that much of an open-ended game, though, which explains why it did so much poorer here than in Japan (where it remains among one of the top selling Square products for the PS One).

  8. I agree, I was REALLY sick of mono red/BR aggro before rotation.  Game was largely decided by turn 3 or 4.

    I can't wait until the next set releases, though, because I almost always want to force Bant colors in my deck, and there's the least support for those colors right now with GRN's dual lands.  Although the Selesnya cards I've started using are incredible. Knight of Autumn is incredibly versatile and allows me to stabilize against aggro decks while knocking out early Azcantas against control, and March of the Multitudes just wins games on its own, especially when you start stacking them with Convoke.  It's always pretty hilarious how my opponents will bend over backwards to kill my Teferi, only to get run over by 19 1/1 lifelink soldier tokens two turns later.

  9. Is it just me, or are 90% of the decks Dimir surveil and Boros aggro (with the occasional mono-red burn deck and Jeskai control deck thrown in)?  I played against three different players last night in a row all playing the Dimir surveil deck (you know, where they play Disinformation Campaign, then bounce it, play it again, and repeat?).  Maybe it's just the flavor of the week right now.
