Hey, special shout out to all of the technical bullshit preventing me from putting this up on both forums on the usual day. I just love delays, don't you? Anyway, we're here now so that's something. Let's get down to it. Last week we had some Donkey Kong Country goodness in the form of Aquatic Ambience, and while the praise was high, the standings are going to tell a more detailed story.


One-Winged Angel (Final Fantasy 7) - 8.71
Aquatic Ambience (Donkey Kong Country) - 8.66
Guile Stage Theme (Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo) - 8.25
Bloody Tears (Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest) - 7.85
Green Hill Zone (Sonic the Hedgehog) - 7.72
Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved) - 7.125


And that story is that despite the incredibly strong score of 8.66, Aquatic Ambience still doesn't have what it takes to top the charts above Final Fantasy 7's contribution. Time for another contender, I suppose.

We won't be straying from the 16-bit path this week. We're not even stepping away from the 2D side-scrolling genre. We are, however, delving into a franchise with a lot of memorable tunes under its belt. This time let's journey into the far future with the next stage of the Blue Bomber, Mega Man X. The track in question? Spark Mandrill's Stage Theme!





Oh, just listen to that. Does it get the blood pumping? That's for you to decide, among other things. Let's hear what you have to say and we'll see you next week!



No matter what may happen to me, just remember Lzzy Hale gave me the bedroom eyes...



...again.

Mega Man X very good soundtrack of course... this one has that good little drum solo before it repeats of course... Armor Armadillo and Storm Eagle are the top tracks in the game though of course

Snake Man and Gemini Man from 3 are hall of fame as well as an iconic stage select theme...

Every song from X feels really insane which is good though... it's Storm Eagle, Armored Armadillo, plus an iconic opening stage theme

I give it to 3... just can't beat the classic mega man feel... 3 is probably the best soundtrack in the series overall

If mega man songs were a baseball lineup:

1. Intro + Title (II) - SS
2. Opening Stage (VII) - CF
3. Dr. Wily Stage 1 (II) - 3B
4. Armored Armadillo (X) - DH
5. Snake Man (III) - 1B
6. Charge Man (V) - RF
7. Galaxy Man (IX) - LF
8. Gemini Man (III) - 2B
9. Fire Field (Soccer) - C

Pitcher: Stage Select (V)

Sparkman theme was my fav from the tracklist.

Nod to the Intro and Protoman (Credits) theme.

Definitely need to do some of these down the road. Mega Man has such a collection of tunes from which to pick. Gemini Man's song was my ringtone for a while.
