Moby is pretty great.

Here's one I found recently from an artist I've already shown you: The Chemical Brothers.

I got no complaints. There was a legitimate head bob going on while that was playing, though only my dog has evidence to the fact. >_>

[micah211]

It's definitely a great way to end Hugh Jackman's Wolverine career. There's so much fighting too, which I like.

[Deepfreeze32]

More Persona music!

I haven't actually seen any of the X-Men or Wolverine movies past the very first one; Sony pictures has never done very well with comic franchises.

I saw First Class, come to think of it. And it wasn't bad. To be entirely honest though, I'm ruined on X-men since I grew up with the OG cartoon. That is, and always will be I think, the best representation of them.

I'll look it up, though.

More Persona music!

?

See, that was just awesome. :O

[micah211]

I haven't seen the Wolverine movies but I liked Days of Future Past, and the rest for that matter.

Thoughts on the Nintendo Switch?

[Deepfreeze32]

Ok, so let's try on the final boss music for Persona 2: Innocent Sin.

Thoughts on the Nintendo Switch?

I wrote a dissertation on the subject in another thread, so I'ma just quote mahself.

Spoiler:

I think I'm happy...I realize that a big portion of a consoles spacial footprint belongs to the optical and hard drives, which this entirely lacks, but there's a part of me that wonders if what looks like a very thick tablet will have the processing power to satiate enough whiny "graphics are king" gamer's to be considered a true, next-gen console. Or for that matter, Tegra aside, have enough graphical muscle to keep up with its brethren. Admittedly, I'm not sure why this bothers me, since I've never particularly been particular...I think it's because some part of my being is already tensing up for the complaining about Nintendo yet again choosing weaker graphics for other features. I might actually slap someone this time around. >_>

I'm also very worried about the price point; I'm afraid that with the amount of power needed for playing 'serious' games (including Skyrim. :O Which is encouraging to the first point, since that's not exactly an 8-bit title) will put it at a price point I won't be able to afford until the second or third iteration. People are already clambering for $350 or less, but I would be genuinely shocked if it's less than $500. And that's optimistic.

Now...whining aside...

I love it. <3 And actually, I think it's one of the few times 'revolutionary' can be fairly applied to a gaming console. A return to cartridges? Yes! Digital-format only gaming is diarrhea to the soul, with more flaws and issues than I care to rant about right now, but optical drives have their own set of problems (including, you know, frequently dying ) too. Solid state memory is far, far better than optical drives and it's so affordable now; I don't think there's a cause to not utilize it. I absolutely love that. And I hope Nintendo is the first in a long line of peoples willing to fully embrace it.

Portability combined with stationary gaming? Also love it. Long have been the years where I've wanted to be able to carry my game console with me and play big, triple-A titles on the go (which in my case, usually means sitting in a chair someplace that isn't my bedroom). The dream will be a reality. <3 This also somewhat nullifies my first complaint; if the Switch is a console/portable hybrid, it won't necessarily be competing in the same market as the PS5 and Xbox #2. Nintendo might actually have found a market they can corner without much effort.

According to the main press release it's also got a fairly huge list of 3rd party supporters, which also thrills me. Bethesda is (obviously, if a bit surprisingly) on that list, as well as Epic. Near the bottom, I found Unity Enterprises. Combined with the confirmed support of the Unreal 4 engine...I'm more than cautiously optimistic. Not even for the graphic capabilities, just for the accessibility.

Essentially, I'm trying to beat the hyped version of myself into the "cautiously optimistic" box with the stick of reality, but it keeps finding ways to escape. XD

As time goes onward, I'm still looking forward to it...but also more concerned. I have a feeling someone like me would love it. But I can readily recognize that I am not the marketshare Nintendo needs to target.

Plus, I am getting very, very tired of the ignorant naysayers who are popping up around the internet. And I'm not using 'ignorant' as an insult, but as a simple fact; everyone is ignorant of what the thing does and is and doesn't do except Nintendo employees. I cannot count the number of "If it doesn't have X feature then Nintendo is idiotic, and I'm not buying it" articles floating around.

Ok, so let's try on the final boss music for Persona 2: Innocent Sin.



?

Except for the tuba sounding like a fart at times, that easily rivaled the best Final Fantasy has to offer as far as last boss music. O_o It was just good sounds.

[micah211]

Wow, I simply looked at my old WiiU and decided not to get an upgraded version
I don't many Wii games and I can get the Skyrim remaster on the PS4... with mods.

That weird moment after you wake up from an accidental lucid dream?

[Deepfreeze32]

The final boss music is great in that game.

So there's another Persona 2 (Long story short, Atlus decided to kinda re-tell the story from a new perspective, but also in an alternate universe) called Eternal Punishment that I might have mentioned earlier. It used the same final boss music, but also introduced this extra dungeon called the EX Dungeon. It was a challenge dungeon unlocked after you beat the game on both story paths, with it's own final boss who was wicked hard. But the music for that fight is incredible, even on the PS1. Check it out:

It wouldn't surprise me if Nintendo allowed mods with similar caveats to those imposed by Sony. That's the cool thing about the Switch; it doesn't seem to be just an upgraded Wii U, but a brand new console. I mean...the key thing is Bethesda support. Not a port of a game that's a few years old.

That's never actually happened to me. I don't think I've ever had a lucid dream.

I actually think I liked the other one better. But that was one still pretty awesome.

Had one the other night... literally eating my brand new ice cream idea for hours.

This is going to be a long one, so bear with me. I'm going to give you all of the Persona games battle music, and I want to know which you like the best. Thoughts on each are cool too, but don't stress too much.

First, the first game: Revelations: Persona in the US, Megami Ibunroku Persona in Japan. It was re-released on the PSP with a new soundtrack, but I'm not a huge fan of it, so here's the PS1 version.



Second, Persona 2: Innocent Sin. The PSP re-release had a remix soundtrack, which thankfully didn't lose the spirit of the original. As the remix are higher quality, I've linked that one.



Third, Persona 2: Eternal Punishment. See above regarding PSP release, but that version never made it to the US, sadly.



Fourth, Persona 3, the first game released on PS2. This one, I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of. I got sick of it by the 80 hour mark in the game.



Fifth, Persona 3 also had a PSP remake, which included a female protagonist. In addition to the UI and social links being different, the game also features some new songs. Including the battle theme, which I find much better than the base Persona 3 battle theme.



(I'd like to apologize in advance for inconsistent quality from here on out, as the main channel I get Persona music from hasn't yet uploaded Persona 4 or 5 music yet).

Sixth, Persona 4. Persona 4 has two battle themes depending on the version, so I'll give you both. The first is from the PS2 version. This was also the "advantage battle" theme in Golden (The Vita release), where if you surprise-attacked an enemy, you'd get this battle theme.



Seventh, Persona 4 Golden's normal battle theme. This was not in the PS2 version.



Eighth, and lastly, the battle music for the out-in-Japan-but-not-yet-here Persona 5.

That needs to stay in the realm of dreams. O_o I'm already overweight enough as it is...yeesh. I don't think I'd be able to quit eating that. Literally, I would add it to the weekly shopping list alongside toilet paper and bread. Daaaaaang. It's like a lightsaber...I want it to exist, but I'm also afraid of it.

I always stress. >_>

The first three were awesome. Four, I just stopped listening to.

Five (wiping it all out) was alright. Not my thing, but I could tune it out after battle 37.

Six I enjoyed, though at the risk of appearing to be an old man, I have no idea what they were saying. Good stuff, either way.

Seven was...not terrible. Same as number five, for the most part. Good chorus though.

Eight...I'm torn. I'm not sure if it's at the "play the game muted" level, but it's also not at the "I can ignore this" level. I'd probably get over it, all other things not considered.

[micah211]

Yeah, I'm going to try my idea this weekend, can't wait to gain 10 pounds.

Don't you just love getting coupons for free stuff for stores that are 3 states away?
