Morn 8 Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Tinny? The first time I played the SE of Jedi I had to make sure my tweeters weren't blown out. There is very little high frequency on it and the whole thing sounds very muffled.I know it's weird, when I play my, PRESSED CD, it sounds tinny but with like boosted low frequencies too.Alex, I buy plenty of CD's, but I can't afford everything I want so I get mp3's.

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Perhaps it sounds different to different people because they are listening on very different types of sound systems. I gotta go back and relisten to the SW Trilogy soundtracks again and see how the sound quality is again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Anyway going back to what I said before I would love to see Giacchino do one of those "SW scores for books" soundtracks like the one McNeeley did for Shadows of the Empire. Imagine how much ass that soundtrack could kick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morn 8 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 More than McNeeley's I'd bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QMM 4 Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Just got the Call of Duty soundtrack sampler off eBay for 5 bucks. I don't think it's the best of Giacchino's work, he definately is doing something drastically different than his previous works. Plus the stupid sampler doesn't have enough music. Red Square and the whole Russian theme is the best part(s) of the soundtrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 LOL I just got the same copy off of eBay for $5.00 as well.Actually I find it to be more serious than the MOH series. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QMM 4 Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 I still want more themes then just random action music, hence why I like the Red Square track so much You gotta admit, since you probably bought off the same guy I did, he ships Damn fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morn 8 Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 You're not much of a gambling man are you?Sure I am, when the odds are in my favour. I'm just an opportuntist. I still want more themes then just random action music, hence why I like the Red Square track so muchIt's not random it's rhythmic and some of the best music for a video game. The score is his best score I think, much better than MOH which sounds sort of.... childish like compared to COD, MOH is a little corny and too easy listening I'm afraid but COD is real music.

Rogue_Leader 2 Posted March 29, 2004 Share Posted March 29, 2004 I doubt that. Mike didn't do any original music for the MOH expansions on PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QMM 4 Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 We just had an argument over this, he did do music for the expansions (albeit one)Again, not true. Michael insisted he write new music for AA. He wanted to write the entire score but the producers would only let him compose 15 minites of new music. Initially, the producers only wanted to use music from the first two games in AA. Michael felt that AA needed its own voice since it was a complete different game then the other MOH's. The producers agreed and Michael got to write some new music which was performed at the same session as MOH: Frontline. -Erik- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue_Leader 2 Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 Ummmmm where does it say in that quote that he wrote new music for the PC expansion pack? BTW there was TWO expansion packs for MOH:AA (Spearhead and Breakthrough) and Mike didn't write any new music for them. I am virtually positive of this because I played both and I never heard ONE new cue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilHeh, guess u you guys didn't know that a special soundtrack CD came with the Deluxe Edition of Metal of Honor & Spearhead.... so you get 2 great games and 1 great soundtrack all for the bargain price of $44.99.But if you already have the game, I think you can just get the MP3s from your MOHAA file, under: MOHAAmainsoundsmusic. That way you get an awesome 1 hour and 32 minutes of great music! Unfortunatly this means you can't fit it all on one CD... Since you've already paid for the game (hopefully), it's not like stealing music, so everyone's happy- except the guy who paid $128... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin 2 Posted April 7, 2004 Share Posted April 7, 2004 Well it's happened. I'm not an official Giacchino freak. I mean I always liked him of course. I've played Allied Assault many a time always noting how great the score is. But today I recieved Secret Weapons Over Normandy and Call of Duty. SWON. Great theme, the pumping strings kind of sound like TLW. Great choral and percusive work in the score. COD. This is probably Giacchino's most unique work. The terrifying string motif repeated through the first track is for sure an attention grabber. The action cues are far from random and don't really sound a thing like MOH. Excellent stuff on both scores. I also got Christopher Lennertz Medal of Honor: Rising Sun. Great great score. Really keeps Giacchino's bar. Plus there is an awesome use of the Nazi theme from Allied Assault in the score.Justin - Major Giacchino fan and ready for The Incredibles.

Anybody else heard this? Or did he write a lot of horn ensemble stuff that I don't know about that you've all already discussed 300 posts ago?
