Do arrangements fall into the remix category? (2nd one)

I would say yes.

Was that song created specifically for the game? If so, then it counts.
It was not.

Indeed; good thing I had a replacement just in case.

Ah, I shall take the replacement then. I probably should have specified that in the rules, but that's mostly for songs in Guitar Hero or DDR that are licensed, otherwise it's more of a grey area. Also, it's awesome that SupraDarky wrote some music for the game.

Oooo alright, some quick responses! Let's see -

...I really need to try and remember what I nominated last time so I don't (intentionally, at least) re-nom anything.

Think it was something like: SPHILIA, Godsibb, Song of the Ancients / Fate, Here I Come, and uh... I'm not sure. I know I practically always nom the first two in topics like this, but after that I kind of jump around.

Yeah, it's unfortunate that both A) My laptop at the time when I made last year's list is kaput and B) My iPod, which had all 100 songs on it, was lost/stolen. and I guess C) There's no reliable gamefaqs forum archive that I know of. So I have no way of checking last year's list. The only one that looks familiar is "EXEC_Z", but I'm pretty sure I'm remembering seeing "EXEC_SPHILIA"...and upon listening to EXEC_Z it does not sound familiar. I listened to the other 4 noms and they don't sound familiar either. Also, I re-listened to SPHILIA and it is still awesome.

Note: That version of Jeanne-Leanne is from the OST, but the ingame version sounds different and is, IMO, superior. It also does not seem to exist on the internet. I figured that with the remix rule, that could still be nominated.

Correct. Also, feel free to replace it with the in-game version before nominations are closed, if you find it somewhere.

If it counts:

The Impossible Game - The Impossible Game Theme


If not, then I have a replacement, being the very last song.

Been listening randomly to some SupraDarky stuff, so that's where the first two are from. The emphasis is on diverse and potentially new songs for you, which is the approach I normally take.

Nice, I'm a SupraDarky subscriber and I think his VGM tastes overlap with mine quite a bit, so that's a good sign!

Although there was one bit where someone definitely walked past a window then disappeared, which happens to match up to my strangest real-life phobia (I hate looking out, or even being near, a ground-floor window at night, because I always feel like someone might walk up to it at any moment). That was unpleasant.

I'll bet you love that one scene from 'The Strangers' :)

Alright, so I did this last year when there were more of these '100 VGM ranking' topics going on and discovered some great new video game tunes/remixes in the process (plus making lists of this sort is fun). Mega Mana has one going on right now, in the ranking stage (a mix of VGM & non-VGM): http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/62509515 - but that's about it, so I figured it'd be a good time to start the noms topic. Plus I actually have a good deal of free time for the next month - woohoo.

Rules:
- 5 VGMs max per user
- Up to 2 songs per user can be remixes
- Please supply the link
- No alts/flaming/scramping/etc

Last year I think I jumped the gun a little bit in posting the rankings when I should have taken more time to revise the list, so this time around I'll be listening to each song at least three times. Consequently there will probably be a longer waiting time between the nominations being locked and the ranking topic, but it WILL be finished - ya know, barring like my death or a massive global disaster or something.

Right - nominate away!

Cabin in the Woods: 8.5/10
Different, to say the least. Very recommended if you are a fan of the horror genre.

Ben Folds - Carrying Cathy


Short, but: Legend of Zelda - 'Dungeon' (on Church Organ)

tag, you're s'posed to post in the nominations thread that the list is up! Also, Half Life 2 is definitely not an RTS game.

ups

YES! I love actual cannibal Shia Labeouf. Fun fact - Rob Cantor was/is originally in the band Tally Hall before recording that song (whom I posted a song by) (well, a cover, technically).

I didn't add up the values but we've nominated a bunch of games in addition to the big three you mentioned (FF, Mario, Zelda) so maybe you won't be over-inundated with those. They'll likely be the most represented franchises but it looks like you'll end up with about four of each.

I think you can safely umbrella the SF2 original / updates..

I'd personally like to see the list with no tampering - just straight-up how many points each game got (for tie-breakers you could use how many 3- or 2-point votes it got, or just your own judgment), besides, as mentioned above, something like Street Fighter 2 where it's just different versions of the same game and can be pooled into one game. Everything else should be separate, I think, like Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic 2, or the different NES Mario games. The NES Megamans are pretty similar, but the second one was much more popular than the first.

I guarantee those hating on Quackshot have either never played it or can't comprehend its greatness. It is a blast to play, and usually the reason I hook up my Genesis these days. I'd say it is my favorite platforming game...those plungers, that exploration...so much fun.

Glancing over these lists, can someone explain why Sonic 1 is in a few Top 5s? I get that it's a big milestone for platformers and all (though I think Sonic 2 refines the formula to a degree of making the first one obsolete), but Top 5 - especially when SMB1 is even there - seems odd.

Sonic is a franchise character. In the early/mid 90's, Sonic was Sega and Mario was Nintendo. I agree that Sonic 2 is a better game, but it terms of games that every gamer should know of, I think it's top 5. Same reason the first Mario and first Zelda games are there - I'm not saying they're the best, but every gamer should be aware of them.

Fyew, that took awhile. OK, here are mine:

Top 5

1) Super Mario Bros (NES, 1985)
2) Pokémon Red/Blue (GB, 1998)

For the purpose of this list, with the games supposed to be "classic" and all, I tried to only list games that are 10 or more years old, though I made a few exceptions. I also tried to come up with 100, but I can't think of any more that are worthy to make the list at the moment, so I may add more later.

11/15 actors
12/15 actresses

Surprised at how well I did on actresses, I think I got lucky.

So I'm assuming Pokémon (Red/Blue) would count?

correct

If not for the courage of the fearless crew

Oh man where the hell was I for this??

Mega Mana posted...
It's only 100 if you count the songs that make me hate life.

Oh, well then I will naturally assume that you want five more!

Timesplitters 2 - Astrolander


Elliott Smith - Bottle Up and Explode


Portal 2 - Want You Gone


Hot Freaks - Her Smile in Every Summer [Wind Waker - Outset Island]


Tally Hall - Welcome to Tally Hall


That's as close as I can possibly get to splitting it 50/50

I feel like most of these would be the name of 'derp' versions of their respective pokémon

Vermouth
Polymath
Mach amp
Pantagruel
Arawak
Ligating
Electable
Gyrators
Syntax
Articular
Molders
Dragnet

and, figure out this one: Erotically

If it is intentionally bad...it's brilliant. Also if you look at just the lyrics alone, it almost reads like a desperate cry for help.

"When She Loved Me" is #1.

The end.

I think it's at exactly 100 now....just a little late. And by "a little" I mean "6 days".

I'll say Pikmin at 140th (2 pts), and Animal Crossing at 130th (1 pt).

B. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - Wii

Wow, some of these games are ranked brutally low. Namely Super Mario Bros, SMB3, Wind Waker and Halo 2. Metroid Prime and Ocarina of Time surprised me also. I do like that you include a healthy amount of sports games though. The last 2 summers I went through hardcore FIFA 2010 South Africa fazes - playing World Cups with friends, either same team or different teams, is a blast. I'm waiting to see if Myst or Roller Coaster Tycoon will end up on the list, along with a few other games.

Hello??

It's not that funny

As this is a VGM topic, I thought I'd share this email reply I got from the composer of The Sims soundtrack (Jerry Martin): http://postimage.org/image/2da7dwstg/

I thought it was pretty cool since I sent the original email 9 months ago, when I may or may not have been drunk, and that he even thought to respond after that long. Seems like a really cool guy.

Also, MOAR rankings plz :)

quite.

haha I knew I couldn't be doing that well

Wow I still have all 3 left, are you sure mine got included? :P

Still got all 3 left, nice.

Oooooo excellent! :D

Not sure if my vids were included but tag anyways
