  1. Interesting, but not surprising that Lair was their final game. I never bought it, yet its score almost invited me to check it out a couple of times. It's supposed to be more playable after they fixed the control scheme.
  2. Well I got into Halo ONLY for the campaigns, the story, the whole mythology of the series which is pretty epic and deep and only got better as the series went on. And like Hudson says about himself in Aliens, Master Chief is the ultimate bad-ass.
  3. Factor 5 made Rogue Leader, which was the sequel to Rogue Squadron for the Nintendo 64 I believe. That one only had space missions. Like interactive scenes straight out of the movies. Quite the show-stopper. Its sequel Rebel Strike featured a bunch of on foot missions, some of which were okay, others were a bit annoying. And it wasn't as succesful as Rogue Leader. And then Factor 5 made Lair, and that one bombed completely.
  4. Oh yeah Resi 2, 3 and 4 I got as well, but much later. By the time I had to pay for them I wished I bought them on release, because 2 and 3 did not come cheap. I bought them off of ebay and the seller knew what their market value was, pretty insane, but then I'm an insane game addict / collector as well. And you a fan of the Master Chief too?
  5. Nope, and apparently I don't need to anymore. Saw the movie once, but I only remember it starred Rachel Weisz and Mr Anderson.
  6. Way back in 2002 I bought the GC for that jaw-dropping Star Wars game Rogue Leader, after that came Metroid Prime and its sequel, Resident Evil and Zero and of course Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. So I bought it mainly for these precious exclusives which I still play to this day. Especially the Zelda's, they're timeless and in a class of their own. They're utterly charming, challenging and give the brain a good workout as well.
  7. Since you bring up the Wii U, I might as well state the unbelievable and confess I've only ever owned one Nintendo console (still do) and that's the Gamecube. I was more of a Sega fanboy back in the day.
  8. Count me in for GB 2. It's tremendous fun music in the film. Those little heroic moments really add to the underrated sequel IMO. If it's Chain Reaction, seems that Jerry chose all the wrong cues for the 96 album, that it's much more exciting than what we got. He must've been under the weather that day.
  9. A question for you Mr. Leblanc, when you eventually get the PS4, will you become less active on the forum, because I'd hate to miss out on all these most useful news flashes.
  10. While BTTF part II is an ok score, it's definitely the least interesting for me. I much prefer the more inspired part III and part I, well that one's top Silvestri.
  11. #1 sounds like BTTF to me. #2 'It's about time'. BTTF part II? Not too crazy, since the date is approaching Marty travels back to the future. 10/21/15 isn't it?
  12. This is quite a fun live rendition. Oh wait, BB won't like it, it has people screaming. View it on 720p, 1080p has some annoying interlacing going on.
  13. Monsignor (Intrada 2007) Tracks 1,2 and 4 are about the only ones I really like. The track 'Gloria' nearly kills my enjoyment of those tracks. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (MCA 1996) Ah, this is much better... This expansion is just as good as the 40 minute album. A bit more filler, but it's superb filler ! I ignored the music for about 20 years, I had heard it once or twice when it came out then I dismissed it for a reason only god knows why. I bought the CD cheap about a year ago. It's one of the few Elfmans I really love. The songs, Sally's theme, and Elfman's vocal performance being its main attractions.
  14. Journey is also available on its own digitally without the other two games in the package (Flow & Flower). It remains just as gorgeous and playable on PS3 though. The port for PS4 doesn't actually make it a better experience. I want to hear Stefan's reaction when he gets to play it in 2025 on his brand-new second-hand PS3.
  15. Have you heard the music of Kinect Star Wars and The Old Republic? Very accurate replicas / homages to the real thing IMO.
  16. I've just listened to the first disc of Destiny: The Taken King... Music by all the same composers except for McCartney and O'Donnell. All I can say is Marty's voice is sorely missed. It's pretty generic and repetitive and misses the mystical element found in the previous soundtrack.
  17. Here's hoping Gordy Haab, Kyle Newmaster, Mark Griskey, Wilbert Roget II and Lennie Moore have had a hand in the music. These guys can mimic the maestro to a T, evident from their previous work in Star Wars videogames.
  18. Not much makes sense in 1979 Mad Max, even the sanest characters do the weirdest things.
  19. Funny I just saw the The Road Warrior today for the second time. I got the trilogy sometime before Fury Road came out. Yeah the first one really is a bizarre film. Its tone is all over the place, the score is atrocious and clearly written for another type of movie, and the events don't follow a logical sense. Despite its awkwardness, Mel is badass, and the second half of the film does redeem the uneven first half, but not by much. Do check out the second, it's a big improvement. And I also like Beyond Thunderdome a lot.
  20. You're like that too? I can never occupy myself with just one game any given time. I need variety. The problem is, that some of these games I keep playing are just immense...
  21. At some point I'll watch BB again, it's just too fantastic a show to not enjoy it more than once. In a couple of years I'll have forgotten most of the plot points anyway.
  22. I listen to my CD's all the time... I only use my portable player when I'm not able to listen to CD's (at work for example). Compact Discs are Awesome.
  23. Don't worry, by the time the PS5 is out they'll release the Naughty Dog Ultra-HD Collection, containing Uncharted 1-2-3-4-5-6 and The Last of Us 1-2-3.
