Gamingforce Soundtrack III - Sony Scape Edition
 

Alright folks, it's time once more for another Gamingforce Album. Sony Scape didn't have it's own soundtrack last time, so let's do our best to totally kick everyones ass. First, a few ground rules:

1) Try to keep it to 3-4 nominations at most. I will do my best to hunt down each song and give it a listen. To see a list of what was posted last list year for the gaming forums., look here. Most of it is under General Video Gaming, Music Discussion, and RPG Forum. Try to avoid repeats if you can.
2) Try to keep it to Sony exclusive games if you can. Of course there's times where you can't avoid doing multiplatform stuff, I know.
3) Try to use Final Fantasy (or RPGs in general) as a last resort if you have to. I'm sure by now just about all of us have heard the FF soundtracks. I'm sure you guys can think up some other great Sony tunes!

To kick things off, here's my list:
1. Noriyuki Iwadare - Attack with Conviction!! (Grandia III - Disc 2)
2. Zero - (Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War)
3. Masashi Hamauzu - A New Hope (Musashi Samurai Legend)

How about avoiding RPGs in general? They have their own album.

I suppose we could aim for that, but you gotta admit RPGs make up a heavy amount of Sonys games.

EDIT: As Capo posted below, the RPG soundtrack is now back. I thought it was gone this year.

Which is why I wanted to do away with the RPG album. Popular demand brought it back, though. Well, you can still have them on here. Just try to coordinate with the RPG thread to make sure there are no repeats.

Nominating Kow Otani - A Despair-filled Farewell ~Battle With the Colossus~ (Shadow of the Colossus)

Uploads on the way.

I made a folder within the one you set up. Hope that's alright.

Edit: And it looks like somebody else stuck two tracks in there...

Lol guys the Hello_Kitty folder is uploads from the user Hello_Kitty. I'll move your subfolders to the main folder when you're done.

Whoops -- I thought you made that folder, and hello_kitty was the name you gave it :p

My bad.

i made that same mistake as well ^^;; but everything should be in place, Yuktobania.

That's fine. I'll sort it all out later. Thanks for the quick response guys!

I was able to delete the tracks I uploaded in hello_kitty's folder.

Then I made a new folder under the main directory, and re-upped the tracks there. Note that I didn't upload Operation Bunker Shot because you said you already have it.

Thanks man.

Damn i just uploaded one of the Dawn of Sorrow tracks. thats not allowed in Sony Scape since its on the nds , correct?

Right. Stick that in the General Game Music section.

Here's my list, with YSI links to the tracks itself.

1. Kow Otani - "A Despair-filled Farewell ~Battle With the Colossus~" (Shadow of the Colossus)
2. Hideyuki Fukasawa - "Roberto's Theme" (track 09 from B4-Hunter's Shin Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams rip)
3. Keiko Kobayashi - "Zero" (from Rock's rip of Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War)
4. Yasuharu Takanashi - "GENJI" (Genji: Dawn of the Samurai)

Medal of Honor Frontline and Silent Hill = nono

Listen up you, I'm running the show here and I know what can and can't fly.

Nominate or get out.

What Tails said. No drama in here. Just nominations and legitimate discussion.

I am just saying you shouldn't be nominating MOH Frontline since its multiplatform and thats for General Gaming. And if you are counting PC you cant nominate Silent Hill 3 here. And Not even 4 since that is multiplatform as well. And no MGS2 either.

I know what can fly and what can't. Sorry.

Actually, I just thought you were complaining about having shitty games on here. BZ is right, Tails.

I apologize, BZ.

I already know this. I am in the process of co-ordinating with people through PM about their nominations.

Again, I can handle this, thank you.

Additionally: Since Metal Gear has long since been a staple of the Sony consoles, I pay no attention to the XBOX port of 2 (Which was a port of SUBSTANCE, not the original Sons of Liberty anyways).

Yeah, I think I said in the PC thread that long standing staples of certain platforms (The Sims for the PC, MGS for the PS) should be placed in the area they originated from.

Well what about the big daddy remake on teh gamecube. Owndizzled. MGS franchise speaking

The Twin Snakes (which I own, in fact) was an enhanced port by SILICON KNIGHTS, not the original KCEJ/Konami of the actual series itself, therefore, if people want to nominate it for that album cool, it'll still be out of place.

The point stands that Metal Gear is a staple of the Sony consoles. Further interruptions on your part will earn you a thread ban, BZ.

Additionally: Seeing as how Silent Hill has traditionally landed on Sony consoles before their PC ports, I'm going to let them slide.

Since the RPG album just got killed . . .

I'll nominate some newer music. These are not necessarily my favorite tracks from their respective albums, but they're good listening.

1. Genso Suikoden V Original Sound Track - Disc 1 - Track 7 - Recollection
2. DIGITAL DEVIL SAGA ~Avatar Tuner~ 1 & 2 Original Sound Track Integral - Disc 4 - Track 6 - Battle for Survival
3. Rogue Galaxy Original Sound Track - Disc 2 - Track - 18 - The Mystery Forest

I added a new nomination cause Dawn of Sorrow belongs to NDS.

Song Replacing Dawn of Sorrow will be (hard choice of this ost)

Guilty Gear Isuka - Irony of Chaste by Daisuke Ishiwatari

I'm going to get stabbed in the face because Attack with conviction!! is nowhere near this list, but :futails:. Hitting up DAT SONG OF THE WEEK for this list, but they're all good tracks, so.

Legaia 2: Duel Saga - Lost Forest
Vib Ribbon - Vib Ribbon Blues
Xenosaga Episode II: Jenseits von Gut und Böse - communication breakdown
Ys: The Oath in Felghana - Sealed Time

It so happens that what I posted for the former RPG album can go here. Some of my favourite tracks from last year.

EDIT: Forgot BOF4's opening track was in last year's General Game Music Discussion's album so I'm replacing it with something else. I'm also nominating one more track.

Xenosaga Episode II (Game Rip) - Track 19 - "Ormus Stronghold"

Shadow Hearts: From the New World Original Soundtrack - CD 1, Track 18 - "Light Crossing Boder"

Musashiden II: Blademaster Original Sound Track - CD 2, Track 21 - "Holy War"

OZ Original Soundtrack - CD 2, Track 7 - "The Wingless Angels ~Requiem~"

I've uploaded my nominations.

I undertand that Silent Hill 3 was for the PC as well. And that Silent Hill 2 was for eventually released for the PC and the Xbox. And Silent Hill 4 was multi-platform.

But when I think of Silent Hill, I think of the PSX and the PS2. Ever since the original Silent Hill debuted on the Playstation, it has been a flagship survival horror series for Sony.

But if Tails ultimately decides that SH3 can't be nominated, I'll take down my 06 - Sickness Unto Foolish Death.

Because of the RPG death, here's my sony nominations:

Fish Race -Tomohito Nishiura- Dark Chronicle Original Soundtrack

Time is Changing -Chiyo Yano- Dark Chronicle Original Soundtrack

What a Beautiful Life of Mine -Tenpei Sato- Makai Senki Disgaea

I've already said Silent Hill is OK. :)

RADIANT SOULS -KEIKI KOBAYASHI - SOUL CALIBUR III

Give up.

Everlasting Love (We Love Katamari)
Huge Battleship Elinies (ESP Galuda)
Heal (ICO)
Soft Machine (Gitaroo Man)

Probably the best PS2 game songs in the world. Check them out.

Chaos Legion - The Drones of Hell (boss bgm)
Xenosaga Episode II - Chase (from the Movie Scene Soundtrack)
Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando - Megacorps Outlet
Atelier Iris Eternal Mana 2 - Blazing Earth
Gitaroo Man - The Legendary Theme (Album Version)

I nominate "Legend of the Snake" and "A Measure of Peace" (by Gammingforce's own Musharraf, previously available in the XChange) for the entire Metal Gear Solid series. Even though they're not technically in the games, they are very good mixes of Metal Gear's main theme. Since Subsistence just came out and because it's the last Metal Gear game on PS2 and before the next generation, it's only propper that we celebrate with this. I also nominate "Sidecar- Escape from the Fortress" (or "Pursuers" in MGO). Even though it was also on last year's list, it is simply the most kickass track to kill to in Metal Gear Online, thus beckoning a return.

I also nominate "Elemental Particle 2" from AC5 Arcade mode/ACZero. This newer version of the AC2 classic is full of energy and really represents what Ace Combat's all about: kicking ass at 20,000 feet! It can also be seen as a AC04 track because AC5's Arcade mode is AC04 continued. Since Zero will soon be upon the U.S. I thought it only propper to get the AC adrenaline pumping.

I'd like to nominate:

1) Junichi Nakatsuru - Healing Winds (Soul Calibur III)
2) Akira Yamaoka - Nightmarish Waltz (Silent Hill 4)
3) Ayako Saso - Sudden Threat (Phantom Kingdom)

Ace Combat 5 - Reprisal
Gran Turismo 4 - Nobody
Metal Gear Solid - Enclosure

I have a question. Last year, when the RPG album was up, there apparently was a "Vagrant Story - Vagrant Melody" in there. Now, I don't know what freaky tracklist people were using, but there's no such song on the soundtrack. Someone who has last year's albums and knows Vagrant Story, could I get some clarification on which song this really is so I don't nominate it again accidentally?

That said:

Hitoshi Sakimoto: Meteor (Stage 5) - Gradius V OST
Michiru Oshima: Castle in the Mist - ICO OST
Hitoshi Sakimoto: Staff Roll - Vagrant Story OST (if "Vagrant Melody" doesn't turn out to be this one)

And as much as I adore The Moon and the Prince, since it was on last year's OST, maybe it should be left out this time? Just wondering because I've already seen three nominations for it and I'd hate to think what other great songs those could have been used for.

From other Katamari songs, I'd nominate

Kenji Ninuma: DISCO PRINCE - We <3 Katamari OST

Unfortunately, yes. Things from last year = no go.

Mobius One, since Sidecar -Escape from to Fortress- from MGS3 was on last years soundtrack, it is inelligible, no matter how awesome it is, sorry.

If there's any other dupe nominations I overlooked, please let me know.

It is the Vagrant Story theme (I assume) played by a piano. Either way it's not the Staff Roll track (though it is somewhat similar). I am not that familiar with the soundtrack, just the Staff Roll song in particular (which the "Vagrant Melody" track bears some similarities to).

Double Post:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T7EAPRT5

Here is the song in particular.

Oh, I see now, thanks. Hearing the tune immediately clears it up.

It's not from any of the soundtracks, nor an "official" song, this is an Xchange work from Amanda. I was wondering why that name sounded so familiar. Wonderful stuff too.

1. Xuxa, from In The Groove* (only multiplatform song in my nominations, appeared in Arcade.. sorry) (YSI)
2. Sandstorm, from DDRMAX*
3. Storm Owl Stage, from Mega Man X4*
4. Decisive Battle! Saruin -Final Battle with Saruin-, from Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song (YSI)
5. Last Battle, from Neorude II (YSI)


*I have a lossless copy.

If remixes are allowed, I second this.

Also,
Ace Combat 04 - Emancipation
Ace Combat 5 - Closure

Props for the Emancipation nomination, it's a fantastic track and I'll highly consider it, but I think we've registered enough Ace Combat nominations at this point, as much as I'd hate to say it. Can't have the whole thing be AC, you know. ;_;

Also, to those who have received a PM from me and haven't uploaded your tracks, please do so ASAP. I've already got the AC tunes though, so don't worry about uploading those.

I've uploaded all of my nominations, "Ormus Stronghold" (Xenosaga 2) and "Light Crossing Boder" (Shadow Hearts 3), "The Wingless Angels ~Requiem~" (OZ/The Sword of Etheria) and "Holy War" (Musashi Samurai Legend). Had some problems with uploading the last two tracks initially but that has been resolved.

I guess i'll nominate some stuff here since the RPG forum one is apparantly gone forever.

Ace Combat 4 - Megalith -Agnus Dei-
Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater - Snake Eater
Gran Turismo 4 - Green Monster

Tails i'm gonna ASSUME you have all of these. Because you should.

Well, Ace Combat has some of the best music in gaming, so it's only natural that it will get alot of nominations.

I also approve of Emancipation. That mission rocks, liberating people just makes you feel so good. Braveheart: "FREEEEEDOM!"

OKAY I GOT 2 nominations

Gradius V - Something Green (stage 6)
Headhunter - Jack's Theme

Uploaded it to Tappy last night. I apologize for the lack of voting threads, but I'm not a big fan of the democratic process around here. If you'd like I can .rar that list and upload it somewhere if anybody wants to listen to it now.

GELB-2 is upholding the laws of Belka by being a totalitarian asshole. Voting is for bastards.

But I'm going to have to fox 2 this shit for someone putting Reprisal above First Flight.

Nobody nominated First Flight, n00b.

I know, which is what I'm complaining about, see.

If you had ANY READING COMPREHENSION WHATSOEVER YOU'D KNOW THAT.

<3

WELL IF YOU HAD NOMINATED FIRST FLIGHT IT'D BE ON THERE LAZY ASS! >=O

At least Ace Combat (best series on Playstation why lie) is getting some representation though. OBJECTION! isn't even on the Warp Room Soundtrack, fraud of the year.

Didn't realize forgetting to upload your nomination constituted fraud. =O

Also, glad to see that there are a few tracks on the album that don't suck. No thanks to me. :(

More like glad to see that the whole album doesn't suck.

Ok, so maybe the Katamari song is garbage, but the rest is awesome.

Im glad Irony of Chaste is number 2 >=].

I wasn't expecting that song to win over Joker (KOFXI) but thats all good i guess ^^;.

Only song I got in was Neorude 2 Last Battle from Best Song Contest 2005... but it's still a good song.

Well, most people only got one track in. I really like Tomorrow of Promise though, nice selection.

I Think Its Too Late But Anyway: Megaman X4 - Opening Stage Zero
Devil May Cry 2 - Fire Away

Oh, it's far too late. I just need to get a few slackers to finally turn theirs in, and then you can expect this to be availible via torrent and FTP.

ok sorry about that
