Tales series: Summoning of Spirits - History

[KyleJCrb]

I'm disappointed, mostly. The Arrow Was Shot is awesome, but it's basically just an extended version of the original. Same with The Edge of a Decision, and in fact, all of the songs don't get arranged much outside of some wanky Sakuraba-style keyboard solos. Full Force(which wasn't very good to begin with, mind) is meh, and Like a Glint of Light is not very good at all. Take Up The Cross is okay, but PriZm did it better for us. It's not a bad album, but I think SoS has done a better job in the battle theme department.

I expect to hear it soon. o: Although, if Sakuraba had done a more Baten Kaitos style or Eternal Sonata style, the soundtrack might have been better.

EDIT: I'm a sucker for rehash-esque music... :c

The problem isn't really that they aren't arranged: It's that the instrumentation is practically the same as the originals. Almost nothing is different. It kinda sucks.

how long did i have for that thing, kyle?

[KyleJCrb]

Choose one and work on it as quickly as possible. Though don't forget you have two other songs, too.

[prophetik music]

bullshit, those are done! DONE, I SAY!

actually, since i don't have a graphics card (evga step-up ftw, 9800gtx+ for 50$) atm, it'll have to wait at least a week =)

9800gtx+ for 50$

WHERE!!!!!

[KyleJCrb]

WHERE!!!!!

eVGA's Step-Up program, let's you upgrade your current eVGA video card for a new one at a reduced price. Sadly, my 7950GT is far too old to use for it.

[SephAguraki]

Well damn, I wish I had an eVGA video card...strangely, though, my 8500GT's box says it has 256MB video ram, where my computer reads it at 512MB...

in during derailment?

lol, if you had it registered originally, they were running a deal for their 9th birthday where ANYONE could to a stepup. 7950gt's were getting like almost as much as my 9600gt, because it's how much you paid when you bought it all those years ago.

Pretty big update posted for my ToS: Knight/Dawn of whatever track. Making fast progress.

[KyleJCrb]

We's SOOOOO CLOSE! Step-Up, Prophet Tell those bastards a eVGA that there's a remix project to be finished!

[Aninymouse]

"Fuck yes," is all I can manage at this point.

Bring it on, people.

scheduled for signature delivery on the 11th. soon! at least, assuming this isn't one of the 65nm models that phails on boot.

[Darkflamewolf]

Does that mean tomorrow release? Or did I misunderstand the above post?

[OceansAndrew]

it means that is when prophet gets his video card that will of course be broken as are all of the components he seems to buy.

[KyleJCrb]

Does that mean tomorrow release?

Not even close.

[Hemophiliac]

Yes you misunderstood him, he's getting his video card tomorrow.

[SephAguraki]

Guys, I'm getting in a really Tales-y mood. Is this dangerous?

[Pavos]

Always....

Quickly, go buy Vesperia!

[Nutritious]

Track is about 80% done, check forums

[prophetik music]

hah, i'm on my own computer! the 9800gtx+ is a damn big card - almost didn't fit - but it's here, and i'm back to working on music. i'm off tomorrow, so i should be able to update then.

[SephAguraki]

Always....

Quickly, go buy Vesperia!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...when it comes out for PC. :\

I think Dawn of the New World might be decent...until Hearts makes its way here...

[Aninymouse]

Vesperia is actually pretty good.

Groundbreaking? No. Looks and sounds pretty, though. Nice party of characters.

[SephAguraki]

I don't care if the game is groundbreaking or not. It has fast-paced battles and Motoi Sakuraba's music. I'll play it.
