I& #39;m gonna do this retroactively, because I absolutely need something to keep my brain busy today and I cannot for the life of me focus on real work.
1) Unlimited SaGa - "Seven Travelers"
I never played more than an hour or two of Unlimited SaGa, but god, Masashi Hamauzu& #39;s score for it is unreal. I& #39;ve listened to this piece more times than I can count. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qf85wIiDL04">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
2) Jurassic Park (GB) - Level 1
I think the GB sound chip turned me into a lover of game music (and of chiptune particularly). This track, by Jon Dunn, basically steals its whole B-section from a C64 game called "Comic Bakery," but I heard it here first. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywRGNGRmRws">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
3) Battleship - Gameplay Music
The GB Battleship was hilariously unfair -- you had even odds of winning your first match, and then approximately zero chance of winning your second -- but this battle theme made spending time with it worthwhile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_9IV3Ur320">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
4) Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising - Jess& #39;s Theme
I love Jess with my whole heart. I love her hair. I love her suit. I love her tanks. I love the look of panic in my opponent& #39;s eyes when they realize that her CO Power gives her units +1 movement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-T8KwCCNh8">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
5) Terranigma - Further Into the Wide World
I love this overworld theme so much. To my great embarrassment, I still haven& #39;t finished Terranigma. What a great premise, though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQaQHlcTW7Y">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
6) Bastion - In Case of Trouble
We& #39;ve had a lot of trouble lately. Sure could use a place to be where we don& #39;t have to worry about it for a while. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=al7RMKl7Weg">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
7) Thomas Was Alone - A Time for Change
Criminy, what does "indie" even mean? Anyway the soundtrack to jumping, feeling rectangles game Thomas Was Alone is lovely and I like it a lot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3UoAMcbUuU">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
8) Deus Ex - The Synapse
Deus Ex is great. I just replayed it last year and I want to replay it again already. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYqv75ANPik">https://www.youtube.com/watch...
