The Follin Project - Discussion

Good idea, niki and Rimo. I'm more than willing to help in any way I can, whether it be console ripping or emulation ripping (if it comes to that). I don't think I have any games that he did the music on, other than Solstice. If anyone has games that he worked on but no means to rip them, they can be sent my way.

FYI, I already planned on ripping his music from the different versions of Ghouls n' Ghosts that he worked on (from the emulated audio files). I was going to do that later this week, once I'm back from visiting family.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm working on acquiring Equinox. So, um, I call that, unless someone already has it and wants to rip it.

Isn't there already a rip of Solstice?

And niki & Rimo - I understand just going off of Follin's site for now. But there are obviously other games the brothers have done. What other sources for finding games they've worked on (like Mobygames.com, the Game Music Base, and other sites) would you count as accurate for this project? I think we could at least post them, but not add them to the top list, so people could see if they have any of the other games. If they do, they can then check their manuals, and if the Follins are in there, we can add it to the official list.

EDIT: Oh, and you should mark any rips that are currently in progress in the first post.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

SPC would be better than recording from the game? If that's so, I'll just do that then.

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

I was looking through a list of games that Software Creations developed (since the Follins composed for lots of their games), and here's what I found. It's worth noting that SC games were published under the Acclaim name after Acclaim purchased most of SC's assets in May 2002.

Cosmic Storm (C64) - Geoff Follin
WWF War Zone (GB) - Tim Follin

Those are both according to credits listings on Mobygames.

And here's a SC game with an unknown composers (might be one of the Follins, and thus worth trying to get the manuals/credits info):

Barbie Vacation Adventure (Gen, SNES)

Would try to find more, but I have to go.

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

The Equinox (Solstice 2) rip is complete. I'm having problems uploading it right now, regardless of which file-sharing site I use, but once I get it to work it will be posted in my ripping thread (link in sig).

I was speaking idiomatically.

Has anyone tried that? I think it's worth a shot.

And the Equinox rip is up.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
