Maybe the list could be organized in a different format, where it is a list of the games with the best OST. That way overall quality and variety would be valuable, and the best examples of songs inside each game could be listened to on each entry. I'm enjoying the list so far, and I'm gonna through with it to the end, I just think it would be interesting to see it organized like that somehow.

I guess samus didn't have the skill from the start, it was hidden somewhere.

I was going to complain about something on this video, but I watched it to the end and didn't have to anymore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dF_3Hyb6IfU

The overworld theme from zelda is very annoying (I just finished playing zelda for the NES and link's awekening for the gbc both on the 3ds). That being said, at least they picked the one from zelda2. As the reviewer said it, "Luckily in Zelda 2, the overworld theme contains a variety of catchy melodies that can be listened to endlessly. The song doesn't loop until about 50 seconds and has four distinct parts". I'd add to that the fact that the melody is played with a smoother sound than that of zelda 1 for example, which makes it less irritating to me. edit: oops, just scrolled down to the horror. zelda 1 overworld is there.

Lot of quality tracks so far, but that Gremlins 2 theme in particular was really catchy and memorable.
I woke up to that tune today.

I just realized I can try this on the activision anthology for the gameboy advance. Will post on this thread with the results if it's another fail. edit: the gba version seems to be an accurate emulation of the atari game, but it runs really slow. So I'm dropping this project.

Read the rest of my post warp, don't take one sentence and put it out of context. You are not a robot, you can understand better.

If killing animals is immoral or not shouldn't be talked about in this topic, but since you asked me especifically, let me talk a bit about it. First of all, to me morality and religion go hand in hand, therefore I think morality is a very personal thing. It is based on what you think is right and wrong, and that is the function of religion to me. Back on eating meat: I think the ease of eating meat today has nothing to do with it. It is immoral to eat meat because, like kuwaga said, we really don't have to eat meat at all. We can quite effortlessly eat anything else, so killing an animal becomes superfluous. It is not necessary to kill animals to survive, and it is not necessary to kill animals to evolve our species anymore. So why do we raise and kill young animals by the billions? To satisfy a pleasure. The pleasure of taste. That is why, to me, eating meat is immoral. I do not want to convince everyone else to stop eating meat, that would be insane. I am just not killing anymore, (not intentionally and not unecessarily). Sure, we kill bugs to raise crops, we kill cockroaches, rats, animals that attack us, etc. I just don't want to kill for pleasure. Also, I don't put animals and humans side by side. Animals are inferior (again, some people think they aren't, it's just me). Just as much as plants are inferior to animals. So if there are no plants to eat in an extremely unliquely situation, I would eat an animal so I wouldn't die of starvation, of course.

moozooh, yes it is surprisingly more expensive to not eat meat, that is how advanced the industrialization of meat is in our society. What I meant is that food would probably be cheaper if there was no need to "produce" meat. I believe that not eating meat right now is one step into making that a reality.

Yeah, even though more expensive I would prefer brands that didn't explore the animals as most brands do. But it is kind of surreal to have something like that right now.

I agree completely that there is no need to take that risk. Drinking milk or eating eggs does not necessarily mean the cow/chicken has to suffer or die. Eating meat does.

Actually not eating meat is not only viable now, it is also smarter as resource management for the society. Also, eating meat now doesn't help the evolution of the species. It helped ages ago because it forced people to think, but not now. So yeah, part of the evolution of our species is the undeniable result of eating meat, but that has stopped a long time ago.

Also, from an evolutionary point of view, whatever happens to you after age of 30 is irrelevant, because by now you should already have kids and be dead :P

Ok, so I had an idea and it made me do a TAS again after what, 2 years? It turns out the idea can't work and I think I've found something. The idea was to TAS the atari game inside the Genesis or SNES version of Pitfall the Mayan Adventure. Since we don't have re-recording atari emulators, and I tried to beat this game on the atari the other day, I was wondering what the fastest time would be. So I started optimizing it even before making a test route (why would I need a test route? The best path is known...). So I've optimized more than half of the run, and decided to finish the rest unoptimized just to see if it all worked. And I couldn't beat the game. Using emulator tools, and more than half of the run was optmized. The timer reached zero before I could get close to the end. So I compared my movie to a speedrun on youtube, played on the atari. Playing both side by side it became clear that there was something weird in the timing. The vines swing at a different speed and starting at a different position when they appear on screen. Same goes for the lake and crocodiles. I then tried the SNES version of the atari game and the same problem persists. I then tried all the atari versions on stella and they are very different. There was also another difference, a weird one: the rolling logs don't make harry stop moving on the mayan adventure version. I tried moving all the switches on the atari to see if there was a combination that made it possible also on the atari, but they always make harry stop while touching it. I don't know what version of the game they ported to mayan adventure, but as far as I know, it is unbeatable, and I haven't found this information anywhere. I'll have to wait some more for an atari 2600 TAS : / here's my wip, half of it is optimized: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/26330550/Pitfall_wip_foda.zip

Ok, so I looked it up on a Hex editor and the problem seems to be exactly that the TAS movie editor doesn't write the word "Gens" on the first bytes of the header. It's adding blank space. It can be fixed by adding that manually on an hex editor.

I'm having trouble using the TAS movie editor to edit a GMV file. I open the file, but then if I save it, the file becomes corrupted somehow. TASme can't open it anymore, and gens says the header is missing info.

I'd choose to emulate the fastest drive officially released. PS2 load times of psx games perhaps? Loading faster than what is possible on real hardware seems wrong. Unless you can "overclock" the optical disc reader, but would that only reduce load times or would it change the games? I mean, we allow L+R...

I have an excuse for making imperfect runs: 1 - it *looks* perfect 2 - it is entertaining to the viewer 3 - it's a world record 4 - it's either that or nothing because I don't have time to make it more perfect Those are pretty valid to me.

I don't want to fuel discussions here, but you made a personal attack at him, when you could have done constructive criticism. So, what is your take on the speed vs entertainment debate?
