How much gaming music can YOU identify?

Unread postby Reako Somner » Mon Aug 07, 2006 8:08 pm

Well, Seppel over at Disaster Labs has made alittle contest thingy, with about 75 music tracks and clips from games from the NES era to present day, PC games from there until now also included.

disasterlabs.com/Seppel/td/

I was only able to guess about one third of the selection, a small handful of others on the tip of my mind but I just cannot remember. How well will you do?

86 points' worth, apparently, with another 6-pointer whose name will probably strike me as I go to sleep. <p><span style="font-size:xx-small;">"It's in the air, in the headlines in the newspapers, in the blurry images on television.

Too lazy to register.

Edit: I recognize it all by default, then, I guess.

Yeah, I suck at this.

Edit - Done first 35: got 4. <p>

Okay, so anyone who can tell me over IM what [url=http://disasterlabs.com/Seppel/td/sfnet61.mp3>#61[/url]]#56[/url] are gets my assistance on an answer I have that they do not. Most immediately to mind springs the one where Moodock is asking someone to "pull up a char," he'll "teech et to ya."

Because I need to stop punching myself in the face to try to remember those two. <p><span style="font-size:xx-small;">"It's in the air, in the headlines in the newspapers, in the blurry images on television.

Got a total of 60 points so far. There's at least 5 songs in there I know I have the right answer to but it does not accept it so bleh!

Tis alright. Be nice for a list at some point of what it is. <p><div style="text-align:center"> </div>

Put my money where my mouth is!?

My good sir, you give me far too much credit.

.. but eh, sure! When, like, I'm at home and sit down and try to do this again I suppose I will.

PS I seem to have 66! GASP! Rather then 60

GUESS WHO'S NUMBER ONE, BITCHES!?

I can't take complete credit, though. I owe some of it to Reako and Priam, one track to Googleshng, and a couple of my findings were based on detective work stemming from MP3 files from which the ID tag info hadn't been completely removed.

Still! <p><div style="text-align:center">Image</div></p>Edited by: [url=http://p068.ezboard.com/brpgww60462.showUserPublicProfile?gid=brainwalker>BrainWalker</A]&nbsp; Image at: 8/11/06 19:10

You'll have to check again. I warned you about her, and she's pulled ahead again. And I, am ahead of you. Image

Of course, I can hardly take complete credit either, only 150 of those points are actually mine.

Got 80 points first try. I can answer another 4 more but only if I start up my playlist, which frustrates me immensely.

Also, its kinda mildly annoying to me that they put up both a game AND its remake. >:P <p><span style="font-size:small;"><hr />

Just tried it myself. I've got 71, which is actually better than I thought I'd do. <p><hr />

Well...they put up the answers and results of this quiz. Congrats BW and Reako for being too much more awesome than the rest of us. >:{

As for myself... wow. I pretty much got all the ones I know. Except for Mickey's Mouscapade (thanks, Idran), and the two Megaman entries. >.< <p><span style="font-size:small;"><hr />
