I've seen the line quoted before. I love that Dennis doesn't seem to be aware of how much of a creep he is. (In 6x01 he talks about how he feels feelings again, like he did when he was a 14-year-old. Mac again seems... pretty disturbed by this.)


The implication gets better when you get to "The Gang Goes to Hell"

I started watching the series back in 2011 and wondered why I didn't begin sooner; now it's top 5 all-time for me. My favorite character is Charlie, but the second favorite depends on the situation. If Frank's paired up with Charlie in a scene/episode, he's #2. Otherwise, #2 is Mac.

Nominated by: Ry Senkari (3 songs remaining)


The first 25 seconds are borderline euphoric and set the stage for what I'd assume is a great dungeon to explore (ZS Regret #14: Still haven't played Secret of Mana). It's followed by 25 seconds of meh, until the drumline hits at 0:50 and then you just want to bob your head to the beat while you explore. Nicely done 90s SquareSoft

#138: EXEC_SPHILIA
From: Ar Tonelico 2 - Melody of Metafalica
Nominated by: xp1337 (4 songs remaining)


I remember seeing this game on the shelf when it was released in the states in 2009 and kept thinking it said "Melody of Metallica". I never picked up this or its predecessor, since I was practically done collecting NIS games after Soul Nomad and GrimGrimoire, both which I hardly played.

Anyway, concerning the song here; as proven by its two nominations, Ar Tonelico II has some pretty good tunes within it. This one is the inferior of the two that this topic will discuss; the vocals help make up for a rhythm that drags on for parts of the song (at least until the slight guitar solo towards the end, which does a solid job on its own)

One of the very few things I'd put FFX-2 over its predecessor is the theme for Besaid Island. X-2's Besaid theme has a pretty nice use of combining the piano and percussion. While it may not be as catchy as X's Besaid theme, X-2's is still the better one of the two.

Resonance of Fate is a really solid game overall. Very much recommended, think you can find it for pretty cheap these days.


I wouldn't be playing it for awhile regardless. My PS3 is back in the states with the missus (who uses it for Netflix). Unless it gets a PS4/PC remastering, then I'm out of luck. But there's reasons to be optimistic; Deadpool got a re-release on PS4 and it wasn't that good of a game.

If my assumptions are correct, this is most likely the song you hear when you first turn on Crusader Kings II. That being said, it has a slow opening, but it's totally worth it at the one minute mark when it becomes something you'd expect from a medieval battle like in Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings. We get some nice violin around the 1:30 mark as well. If anything, it gets you slightly amped for the game itself

Nominated by: Lockes Ragnarok (4 songs remaining)


Duck Tales stands to this day as one of the best Disney games released. Half of that is because of the spot-on gameplay provided, and the other half is because of the crisp 8-bit soundtrack. The medley that begins as soon as you click the play button is what you'll hear more than anything else and the tune is borderline catchy. The Moon is one of many reminders why Disney games were so great in the 8 bit (and 16 bit) era.

Rapper Doujah Raze provides a flow that only he could provide to match the intensity of the song itself. The song hardly slows down and fits the atmosphere for a title like Anarchy Reigns with its fast pace and techno-like sound. A pretty solid title if I say so myself

Remember the older rumbles when double booked guys would look tired or beat up as they came down to the ring for the Rumble?


This was one good thing about the 2016 Rumble. Owens sold his injuries and didn't look 100% in that Rumble, considering he fought a last man standing match earlier in the night.

As for the 2017 Rumble, it was meh for the most part. But I will admit, despite their age and part-time status, I f***ing loved Taker teleporting out of nowhere when his number came up and going face to face with Goldberg. I just thought it was badass.

Lopen posted...
this serves to highlight what a heel Roman is as he hits the ring at 29, selling no injuries whatsoever.


The first few months of Roman in 2016 were unbearable. Not just what you mentioned at the Rumble, but following said Rumble. At Fastlane a month later, Roman takes a Kimura lock from Lesnar that lasts 40 seconds, and is immediately followed by four chair shots by Ambrose. Not even 10 seconds after the 4th chair shot from Ambrose, Reigns spears him for the win.

The piano and some of the extra sounds provided (example, at 01:46) have a great atmosphere. It pales in comparison to a vast majority of tunes in Final Fantasy X, but that also goes to show how great the game's soundtrack truly was when this is still a good track.

Also, no relation to this song's placement, but just some useless info here



When I was going through Basic Training in Spring 2014, I'd get FFX's boss theme stuck in my head on occasions where we had little time to get ready for various events (which was really 90% of my two months I spent in Basic Training). Sometimes I'd also get the Corneria theme from the SNES Star Fox stuck in my head as well, as well as two others that will later be discussed in this topic cause they're ranked. Just little things that kept me going.

While there are better tunes in SH2 (and the series, which will be discussed later), this goes to show that back in their prime, Konami could do so much with so little. This song is an appropriate introduction for the troubled character that is Eddie Dombrowski and its brooding tone sets the stage for what we may expect from him later on.

You know you've f***ed up when fans are chanting "We want Rusev" when he's at the peak of his prime in his Anti-American gimmick.

Make no mistake, 2015's Royal Rumble match is the absolute worst. The ppv itself gets a 4/10, and nearly all 4 of those points is because of Lesnar/Cena/Rollins, my personal pick for 2015's MotY. We also receive the following from said Rumble...

- Daniel Bryan getting eliminated the way he did. I'm aware that the Philly crowd would have s*** all over this regardless of when Bryan was eliminated, but I would've had him last towards the end, instead of going out the way he actually did.
- Big Show and Kane being made to look like gods. In 2015. Let that sink in for a moment.
- Speaking of those two, and Lopen's dislike for stats during the Rumble, we also had to put up with the announce crew hype Kane up for breaking HBK's all-time eliminations record, and for Big Show entering the top 5.
- Titus O'Neil was supposed to break Santino Marella's record for shortest time in the ring, but botched the clothesline from Reigns and Ambrose & lasted 4 seconds instead. He can't even be eliminated correctly.
- Kofi had the most anti-climatic "save" in this Rumble, just happening to coincidentally get tossed out while the Rosebuds are out there, who carry him back into the ring
- I also think they botched entrance orders. When Bray Wyatt gets on the mic the first time and begins ripping into the rest of the roster, I believe the next person was supposed to be Daniel Bryan. It was instead Zack Ryder, who gets tossed in 30 seconds and we have to wait another 2 minutes for Bryan.

The only thing I enjoyed from the Rumble match itself was DDP's appearance. And while I didn't enjoy this other part, I slightly chuckle now at the fact that when Daniel Bryan was eliminated, Goldust was instantly next once the timer hit zero. Only appropriate that the Titantron reads "s***tered Dreams" just seconds after Bryan gets eliminated.

And I believe this was the first ppv in WWE history where there were zero one-on-one matches.

And the first one that I mentioned was an episode of Thunder on December 16, 1999. I'll correct myself and say that the matches listed HAD finishes, just none of them were clean. In his book The Death of WCW, RD Reynolds considered it one of the worst episodes of Thunder ever, if not the absolute worst. I only vaguely remember this episode, a lot of what's listed below is credited from DDTDigest

- Juventud Guerrera continues mocking The Rock horribly and is also on the announce team because WCW secretly hates us
- Buff Bagwell defeats Vampiro by pinfall after interference from Oklahoma
- The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Iaukea defeated Evan Karagias by pinfall after Evan was distracted by both Madusa and Spice
- Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Midnight defeat Perry Saturn and Asya by pinfall after interference by Harlem Heat
- David Flair defeats Norman Smiley by countout after interference by Meng
- "Dr. Death" Steve Williams defeated The Wall by DQ after interference by Berlyn (Alex Wright's attempt to be goth). Best part about the whole match was Chavo Guerrero selling merchandise in the stands; he was the most over guy in the match and he wasn't even part of it.
- Dustin Rhodes defeated Curt Hennig by DQ after Jeff Jarrett interfered
- Sid Vicious and Chris Benoit defeated Curt Hennig, Creative Control, Shane (Virgil/Vincent's latest failed persona), and La Parka in a 5-on-2 handicap match by DQ when Hennig uses a ladder
- Chris "Champagne" Kanyon defeated DDP by pinfall after interference from David Flair
- Main Event: A tag team cage match between The Outsiders and Bret Hart/Goldberg never gets underway as Creative Control, Jeff Jarrett, and Roddy Piper all get involved before the bell rings

Is the second one an episode where Hogan, Nash and some female character just go out to dinner?


Yeah that one. For those not familiar, it was the Nitro before their March ppv Uncensored. The first hour (which again was only competing with Walker Texas Ranger on USA Network) featured the following...

- A segment of welders working on assembling the cage that would be used in Hogan and Flair's upcoming first blood steel cage match
- A conversation from a previous Thunder between Ric Flair and Arn Anderson
- Hogan and Nash roasting Flair in various black-and-white segments (brought to you by the New World Order!)
- The Nitro girls going to Brown University
- A solo segment featuring a quick look at the life of Nitro Girl AC Jazz
- Konnan's rap video
- Scott Steiner and Buff Bagwell becoming honorary policemen after getting caught driving recklessly
- A Lex Luger promo video
- And finally, as originally stated in your question, a long segment where Hogan, Nash, Torrie, and Mrs. Robinson (a friend that Torrie claims is even hotter than her. While hot, she was definitely not Torrie hot). Hogan and Nash pay Mrs. Robinson $20,000 to sleep with David Flair

And then Nitro's in-ring action begins with Ric Flair turning heel by challenging Goldberg to a fight. As for the matches themselves, here you go...

- Raven and Hak (WCW's name for The Sandman) wrestled to a no-contest in a Falls Count Anywhere match when Bam Bam Bigelow attacked both men
- Chris Jericho defeated Lizmark Jr by submission
- WCW Television Champion Scott Steiner defeated Booker T by submission after interference from Buff Bagwell
- Rey Mysterio Jr. defeated Scott Norton by pinfall in a match where Norton delivered 99.9% of the offense
- Bret Hart defeated Van Hammer by submission
- Goldberg and Ric Flair wrestle to a no contest after the nWo interferes on both men

Agreed. That Impact may have been the worst episode of any weekly wrestling program (that ran 2-3 hours long, mind you) that I've sat down to watch. It's up there with the following...

1) An episode of Thunder in December 1999 where every match ended in a no contest through interference
2) A Nitro in March 1999 where the first hour (you know, the hour that didn't compete with Raw) had ZERO action in the arena, let alone the ring.

It sets the mood for the first temple that Adult Link has to go through. You're no longer a child, Ganondorf is in control, and the enemies are tougher and more willing to wreck your shit. Now go win.

The Forest Temple theme has a nice opening as the somewhat-chime-like sound comes in with the oncoming tune and makes it a little more ominous as to what's to come. It's biggest (and really only) downside is that there are a couple better Temple themes from OoT, and in this case, 157 better tunes on this list.

#161: Look Pimpin!
From: Madworld
Nominated by: trdl23 (4 songs remaining)


You see my swag
Now you wanna come and give me all this drag?
I think you better fight back
Because my hand is itchin' to give you a smack
What's your name again, Jack?
It's the end of the road, there ain't no turnin' back
Don't let the fly face fool ya
Matter 'fact, it's 'bout time that I school ya


One small regret I have in gaming is that I never got a chance to play this. While I'm not holding my breath on a remastering from Platinum Games, I can always hope. Anyway...

...for the most part, the song is pretty dope. The rapping here is better than it was in Sonic Adventure, and Sick-YG does a good job with this song, even if a lot of it starts repeating itself after awhile (with the exception of one verse)

#162: Ancient Castle Stage
From: Devil May Cry
Nominated by: Snake555 (4 songs remaining)


The hard piano hits (which make me think of bells) is ominous, but I spent more time listening to the sounds that occurred inbetween them (for example the medley starting at 0:57). Like most songs in this section, don't let the ranking fool you; Devil May Cry needed something with a gothic atmosphere to set the stage for a solid action game (and series, for the most part at least) and it gets the job done, which is sometimes enough. We'd get all the motivation and adrenaline later from all the rock/techno-hybrid tunes that DMC would provide for 5 games.

3 > 1 > 4 >>>>>>>>>>>>> 2 >= DmC

#163: Twink's Theme
From: Paper Mario
Nominated by: Great Paul (4 songs remaining)


A nice little ditty, like something you could briefly listen to when you walk outside your house on a sunny day. While it isn't something I could listen to for minutes on end, it serves its purpose in Paper Mario.

On that note: Paper Mario >= TTYD > Super Paper Mario > the rest

#164: A Love Suicide
From: Rule of Rose
Nominated by: Raka Putra (4 songs remaining)


And love itself is just as innocent as roses in May
I know nothing can drive it away
Though love itself is just as brief as a candle in the wind
And it's greedy just like sin


Like many others, I never got a chance to experience Rule of Rose and only saw it in action through Youtube. It seems like an interesting survival horror game to say the least. The music is calm and mellow and definitely sounds like an end-credits song; while the piano feels a bit generic at parts, it's covered up by the vocals of Kaori Kondo.

And apparently the song slightly shares lyrics with David Bowie's "All the Madmen". Not too shabby

#165: Guzma's Theme
From: Pokemon Sun/Moon
Nominated by: Murphiroth (4 songs remaining)


Part of me found good things in the beats used to make this tune, and the other part of me was waiting for someone to start spitting out lyrics midway through (not that it would be a bad thing). While it's a pretty nice tune, it's one that I could only listen to for a short period of time.

Most of my favorite music from the Sonic titles comes from both 2 and Sonic & Knuckles. If you had to ask me for my favorite Sonic tune ever, it's easily Flying Battery.

#166: Cicio
From: The House in Fata Morgana
Nominated by: Pyresword (4 songs remaining)

The vocalist adds a hint of emotion to this tune which makes it a good listen. The piano is fine, but nothing special until the 2 minute mark when it takes center stage for a moment.
