Did Shoes work alone, and has he done other games? Frankly it seems a bit iffy to include an entire group (awesome as their name may be) because one of their members did one game once (especially if he was a member of a team).

Since I'm posting anyway, let's have the earliest vote I've done in months:

5 Sound Album 'yukar' - soldiers Doesn't sound soldiery at all, but it's quite nice. The woodwinds and acoustic guitar in particular are lovely.

CHAOSFIELD SOUND TRACK - coccus -phase 2- Sorry, I just can't get into this one at all. Heavy electronic beats and stock techno effects do not a song make, no matter how skillfully they're wielded.

Flower - Original Soundtrack from the Video Game - Sailing on the Wind Like the previous works by this composer that've been featured here, this is airy, melodic music of the highest order. You can hear the game's main theme woven throughout, but the best part is the feeling of carefree beauty it creates.

Mickey's Speedway USA (N64 Game Rip) - New Mexico Much better than last week's Mickey's Speedway entrant, with decent melody and the requisite sense of drive needed in a racer. Vaguely reminds me of the SNES version of Rainbow Road, actually.

Poco Dopo Mezzanotte Enchanted Music - Original Complete Soundtrack for A Quiet Weekend in Capri - Arena - live This game provoked some hilarious reviews, but the music is surprisingly good considering how amateurish the rest of the production looked. Eventually the lack of a real melodic hook bogs it down, but there's some good fusion ambiance to be had.

Princess Knights Original Soundtrack and Arrange - Crash The piano's excellent here, and playing a nice strong melody.Only a weirdly warped (and frankly annoying) beginning and interlude spoil the fun.

Technictix Remix Vol. 3 - Blue shackles Voices whispering "yes," loungy atmosphere and brass, come-ons in a robot voice...this sounds like high-class porno music. Not necessarily a bad thing, but there it is.

Trine Original Soundtrack - Crypt of The Damned This song really turned me off of Mitsuda's "Forest of Illusion" from Haka no Niwa by revealing that its best parts were stock loops which are utilized here in full. Beyond that, the meat of the song is a pretty, and melancholy, bit of melody.

The Point Spread
Sailing on the Wind - 3 pts.
Soldiers - 1 pt.
Crash - 1 pt.
Crypt of the Damned - 1 pt.
Just missed: New Mexico, Arena

Google Translate says it means open. Contribute a more accurate translation if you want!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Thanks! It is, and they're also my first golds since last year! Who is this person, and what has he done with the real Orion??

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
