VOTING RULES

- Each match will be between the songs representing each game, not the game as a whole. Please remember to listen and vote with this in mind! Any votes referring to a game name rather than a song name will not be counted. You have been warned!
- Listen to both songs!! If one is your literal favorite song in the world and the other is something you hate with a passion, listen to them both!!
- No alts, no rallying, no begging for something to get more votes, etc., etc., you know the drill.
- If you change your mind and would like to swap your vote, you may do so. As soon as it is 24 hours since the match topic was started, you may not change your vote and new votes will not be counted.
- If you would like to vote in advance for matches you know you will miss, please let me know in the discussion topic.

You Will Know Our Names... I think
Gentle Slope Cave
Day Light

the nostalgia of Route 209 is kicking me hard in the balls holy crap

why is egregori the vocals of Raphael with the a repeated, obnoxious guitar riff under it?

why the fuck is egregori here and not Gabriel???

Pokmon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum - Route 209 (Night) - I think YWKON is cool, but it's mostly fluff.... Route 209 encompasses everything that a route theme should have.

Pokmon Super Mystery Dungeon - Gentle Slope Cave - I love the varied meters, all those fast lines, the orchestration, charm that's perfect for Pokemon, the harmonies.....one of my fave PMD tracks.

beatmania IIDX 24 SINOBUZ - Seaside Labyrinth (Long Version) -Good match. Both are really good with both harmonies and electronic instrumentation....Seaside Labyrinth is 80's style, which I'm picky about, but the combination of sounds is so perfect! I feel bad, though.... with their previous match if given a chance I would change my vote to Crossing 3084 (not by a big margin). I'm going to listen to both of these (alts) again tomorrow, as it's a close call.

Edit: I hope things get less intense soon, Mycro! We're here for ya.

Xenoblade Chronicles - You Will Know Our Names
Drakengard 3 - Egregori
beatmania IIDX 24 SINOBUZ - Seaside Labyrinth (Long Version)


MATCH 1

This time, You Will Know Our Names is in a match where it doesn't hurt me to have to vote one song over the other! Such a great song.

Route 209 is definitely one of the better route themes in DPP. Very relaxing song, but unfortunately, You Will Know Our Names is just too good to pass up here.

MATCH 2

Gentle Slope Cave is the less good Pokemon song up today. Pretty sure this has showed up in BOST before so I might be repeating myself here, but it's a pretty fun, whimsical song to listen to, but outside of that, I don't find this song to be all that noteworthy.

Egregori is incredibly good and I'm very happy to see this show up again. No contest here with regards to deciding my vote.

MATCH 3

Seaside Labyrinth is really cool! It's like future funk that's actually done well. Great vibes and all around sounds really nice.

Okay I actually didn't know that Phantasy Star Online was developed by the team behind the Sonic series so I was wondering why there was a Sonic logo in the video lol. Anyway, Day Light's decent, but I don't find myself being too invested in this song.

Egregori = You Will Know Our Names > Seaside Labyrinth (Long Version) > Route 209 (Night) > Gentle Slope Cave > Day Light

Strong top 4 today!

Route 209 (Night)
Egregori
Day Light

Oh hey, it's my favorite Gen 4 route theme. YWKON is pretty cool, but it doesn't really do anything to stand out on its own apart from the other great VGM power metal tracks. It's like Falcom's less hype cousin.

e-Gregory

Close TB match.

Route 209 (Night)
Gentle Slope Cave
Day Light

I don't even want to acknowledge match 2 as a match because... it's not.

i like dirty androids but not for rhythm game reasons. still very often super my shit though. honestly though, seaside labyrinth is not my favourite song in bemani he's done, and none of that is up there with my favourites outside it either. It's close but definitely not in question, because it basically needed to be at that level for it to be.

i could honestly probably just steal mycro's post at this point because yeah the ratings alone basically represent my feelings better than these words

Close first match. Regular Route 209 probably would've won it.

Seaside Labyrinth isn't exactly what I want from Beatmania, and Day Light is exactly what I want from PSO. Sorry, Sinobuz...
