So who's played the game? My favourite tracks are coloured by context. Number 1 would be 'Evasion'. The way it kicks in in-game is sublime. Debris, a no hoo-ha track that bubbles under the action, starts you off on stage 4, which has a slow beginning, then the track dies out. A brief moment of calm, before the storm. Suddenly a boss ship zooms into the screen in impressive style out of nowhere, your first sight of it coinciding with the first loud blasting note of Evasion. It's like getting fucked in the ear. The track epitomises 'upbeat', perfect for the insane action which begins with that first boss ship and continues on for most of Stage 4.
Do you have a track which you think works really great in-game? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

Yeah I'll absolutely agree with you on the full package-ness of Radiant Silvergun. The presentation of the game, the unique novelty of certain moments in the design of stages and bosses, the undeniable 'cool' factor of huge polygonal beasts swinging and rotating around the screen to a high-speed scrolling background, and of course the marriage of great music into the action as with moments like I highlighted in my last post - it all gives Radiant Silvergun this great overall cinematic experience which I've never seen in another shoot-em-up.
I half agree with you on the Shining Force 3 point: its graphics aren't technically outstanding, it's not eye-candy by any means, but they do have this simple charm to them which means it never looks 'ugly' so to speak. And despite what I said about eye-candy, certain specific examples can still impress me, like the insane light shows of Thanatos and Tiamat. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
