I mostly remember Xak and Xak 2 for PCECD as bad Ys.

Was unsure whether to put this in the videogame things I think about a lot thread or not...

As a little boy, I used to hover over my older brother’s shoulder whenever he’d play advance wars on the gba and whenever this music would come on I’d keep repeating my own invented lyrics along with the main melody line that kicks in after the intro


Here’s how it went:

You make me feel like dancin’ in the city
My myyyyy, daaaaaanciiiiiiiiin’ :notes:

Etc, etc


Do whatever you want with this information, perhaps now I am finally free of the advance wars curse

Such an amazing soundtrack for such a flawed game.

this is at almost exactly 50 beats per minute and i am here for that kind of tempo

if you’re playing you’d probably count it at 100 since 50 is perhaps too slow to feel the pulse properly but i feel it at 50

This one’s real good. When the guitars cut in near the end
 that’s the stuff:

Notably, Ian McDonald of King Crimson worked on this OST.

The irregular time signature on this one is cool too:

I simply must play this game, it looks so fucking cool.

A dieselpunk SRPG by the creator of Last Exile (Range Murata) and the creator of Serial Experiments Lain (Yasuyuki Ueda), with an absolutely kickass soundtrack by Ian McDonald.

I know it will be tedious as fuck in the way that a lot of non-Tactics Ogre SRPGs of the rea are but I’m absolutely here for everything else.

I see this one: SEGA Saturn 27th Anniversary Game Competition | Page 2 | SegaXtreme

Which might be good enough, though it hasn’t yet been debugged. Just to check, is there another one out t here?

Im also planning on digging into it. I might have this already. I think CDRomance had a copy before they went subs only.

Back when I was in high school, my friend had a physical copy of this game so I tried it out on her saturn and the sense of disappointment I felt upon realizing its a tedious and painfully slow SRPG was immense

It’s a fun game and is worth playing.
