Voting Rules are:
- You must listen to all of the soundtrack.
(In the case of an extended track, just listen until it loops)
- Give a small amount of detail as to your choice, don't just say the winner's name, please.
- Voting lasts 3 days

So we start now, This is Set 1 of 11. Thanks to every one who submitted and I wish you all good luck..

That all out of the way, lets see what the first set is..

Hmm...

Battle 1: Stone Tower Temple - Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask |vs.| Buoy Base Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy
Battle 2: Kanto Gym Leader Battle - Pokemon Black/White 2 |vs.| Sonic Unleashed - Perfect Dark Gaia (Final Boss)
Battle 3: The Red Coin Fish - Super Mario Sunshine |vs.| Wily Stage - Mega Man 2

This looks to be a fair fight... Voting ends next week, so get to it!

My votes are for
Buoy Base - The trumpets make up a large reason, the song gives me goosebumps..

Perfect Dark Gaia - once you get into this soundtrack, it gets really intense, and thus it wins.

Wily Stage - I hear my brother listen to this a lot.. never knew it was Wily Stage.. now that I hear it for myself, I under stand it. The beat of this song surpasses the orchestra of The Red Coin Fish.

Battle 1 - Buoy Base: Although the Stone Tower theme is eerie and awesome, Buoy Base just destroys it. Epic, original, and just pure ear candy beat the more subtle MM Dungeon theme.

Battle 2 - Kanto Gym Leader Battle - boy this one is close. The BW2 remix is good, but not as good as the original. Dark Gaia is good, but the composition didn't really go anywhere, so I guess nostalgia won me over.

Battle 3 - Wily Stage. No contest. Although I love the Red Coin Fish theme and it is SO relaxing, there is something so retro and nostalgic and epic about the Wily Stage.

Also, I suggest making the other first round threads at the same time. That way it will all flow faster :3

My votes are for:

Buoy Base - It gives off such a great vibe as you are in a lone small aquatic fortress in space, and you try to climb it. It gives a sort of a navy-feeling while still sounding very space-ish. The intro is also a big part of why I like it.

Gym Leader Battle - Very intense as well as nostalgic. It really makes you pumped up for battle, and unlike Perfect Dark Gaia it's not a final boss theme. This was a close one, but the Gym Leader theme gets my vote.

Wily Stage - One of the best songs from the 8-bit era. It has a great beat and makes you very pumped up for the final fortress, and the tune is catchy as hell too! :D

Battle 1- Buoy Base. While it is cool how the stone tower music works forward and backwards, I just love Buoy Base.
Battle 2- Gym Leader Theme Although it isn't my favorite rendition of the theme, (that would be the HG/SS remix), it is still awesome.
Battle 3-Wily Stage. Simply put, there is a reason why this song is considered "overrated".

Battle 1 - Stone Tower Temple. I didn't really like Buoy Base that much as a theme, and it doesn't really capture my attention. Other than that, Stone Tower Temple is the best eerie theme I have heard from the older Zelda games.
Battle 2 - Perfect Dark Gaia. This theme is literally my favorite boss theme of all time, because of its epic feels it gives me when I fought this boss while playing SU. The song gave me a "ultimate second chance" feeling, and that's why I love it so much.
Battle 3 - Wily Stage. It's just so much catchier then Red Coin Fish theme, and probably my favorite theme in Megaman.

Battle 1 - Buoy Base

Probably one of the littlest galaxies shows so much emotion by having such an awesome theme that it got it's own green star. Stone Tower is just meh.

Battle 2 - Perfect Dark Gaia

I really didn't care much for this battle, but meh, I don't like Pokemon music.

Battle 3 - Wily Stage

Although the Red Coin fish is soothing, this is a rockin' classical tune. But it seemed kind of unfair to put these two against eachother.

Votes are in, thanks all.

Buoy Base wins 5-1
Perfect Dark Gaia wins 4-3
Wily Stage wins 6-0

Next set:

Battle 4: Pokemon Diamond/Pearl: Champion Battle |vs.| Mega Man 7: Slash Man
Battle 5: Pokemon Colosseum: Final Battle |vs.| Spyro the Dragon: Wizard Peak

Get to voting. :P

My votes go to Mega Man 7, because I dont like pokemon, even if I did, this would beat it any day.
Spyro the Dragon, no contest.
Kingdom Hearts DDD, because I like the beat better, it is more moving..

Posted on 11-25-13 10:47 PM (rev. 3 of 11-25-13 10:48 PM) Link | #35327
This time my votes are:

Pokemon D/P Champion battle: As much as I love classic Mega Man music, Slash Man's theme isn't one of my favourites while the Champion theme from D/P is epic and yet emanates a mysterious vibe.

Pokemon Colosseum Final Battle: Yeah I'm not voting on every Pokemon theme I hear, but I'm a sucker for Pokemon music and this is one of the better tracks from Pokemon colosseum. Also I didn't really like the Spyro one that much even after listening to it multiple times.

Fire Emblem Id: Purpose: Easily one of the best songs in gaming's latest years. The choir, the melody, the intruments...everything is PERFECT! and it also sounds a bit sad while also inspiring, which also fits incredibly well with the time when this theme is used in-game. Definitely no competition there.

#4 Pokemon D/P Champion battle -
Really unique IMO. Its a different style than all the other champion battles, which is great.

#5 Spyro the dragon: Wizard Peak -

Pokemon colosseum final battle is...Ugh. IMO it doesnt set a mood for a final battle :P
I remember when I got to this point. The intro sounds good, but then its like you're so engaged in the battle, the music comes right and exits through your ears :P
I was expecting an epic part to pop at the middle, but its just more of the same... :/

On the other hand, Wizard peak music is nice, and IMO it doesnt wears down after hearing it for along time, since the level itself requires you to search extensively.

#6 Fire emblem Id -"I" (known as Purpose outside of Japan :P)

I listened to the KH one, while its good, IMO Id - "I" beats it on so many levels.
This is the music that really got me pumped up after not getting so for a long time.
Shame that I didnt enjoyed it to the max for the first time, since I was overleveled and swept quickly over all the enemies :P

#4 Pokemon D/P Champion Battle: I've always liked Pokemon themes, and this one is no exception. It feels really upbeat for me and makes me feel determined. I remember playing this so much when I was younger and got really excited my first time getting here, so nostalgia somewhat influenced my decision. Mega Man 7 - Slash man's theme is good as well, but I'm much more familiar with Pokemon and I don't get many strong feelings from this. =P

#5 Pokemon Colosseum - Final Battle: Another Pokemon theme I absolutely loved, it just completely energizes me and it sounds very epic, majestic and elite to me. This was the first song I tried to put into Brawl when I got custom music hacks for it, actually. Love hearing it whenever I play Brawl. As for the Spyro 2 theme, it gave me an energetic and rocking feeling as well, but I feel the former had a greater sense of epicness. =P

#6 Fire Emblem Id: Purpose: I had to listen to both (I never heard either of them before), and I find the former sounds very heroic and inspiring, and I absolutely loved the instruments and the choir. With the latter, I liked it at first, but I felt the loop points were too quick and just made the song drag on so it was bleh to me.

Battle 4 - Pokemon D/P Champion Battle. It sounds so epic and was my first champion I went against in my history of pokemon. Truly memorable.

Battle 5 - Pokemon Colosseum Final Battle. Sounds a lot more epic and pumps you up for a great battle.

Battle 6 - Kingdom Hearts DDD: The Eye of Darkness. Sounds much more epic and gives me a feel that I'm about to go up against something powerful.

4: Pokemon D/P Champion Battle
It really amps you up, continuously going up in intensity, while not being annoying at all. It's fast, smooth and epic.
Slash Man's theme isn't bad either, but it's just not as fast or epic as Cynthia's theme.

5: Spyro the Dragon: Wizard Peak
To be honest, I don't really like either of them because they both are really repetitive, don't have a strong melody, but this one was slightly better.
The Pokemon Colosseum sounds rather generic to me. Not very memorable.

6: Kingdom Hearts DDD: Eye of Darkness
I actually like both of them. Tough choice. But I prefer a stronger beat, so...yeah.

4: Mega-Man: Slash Man. Not my favorite, but I really dislike D/P's champion battle. And this theme is pretty cool.

5: Wizard's Peak. I like Spyro music in general, so this one takes the cake. And its pretty good too. Not a huge fan of the colosseum final battle.

6: Fire Emblem: ID Purpose. I loved this game to DEATH. And this was one of the best songs. It is so motivational and epic, I can't describe it. It beats Eye of the Darkness by far, as Purpose has some really nice chords and really wants you to beat the level its played in (no spoilers).

Lol, SSL.

Anyways, I am sure more people could vote on this one.. Please. Anyone on the forum is eligible so take advantage of it, not only just submitters can vote.

Anyways with that the winners of Set 2..

Pokemon D/P: Champion battle 5-3
Spyro the Dragon: Wizards Peak 5-3
Fire Emblem Awakening: Id Purpose 5-3

What a coincidence. Lol.

In any case, welcome to set 3 of 11!

Battle 7: Super Mario 64 - Credits |vs.| Legend of Zelda: Windwaker - Outset Island
Battle 8: Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Butter Building |vs.| Mega Man 3 - Shadow Man
Battle 9: Super Mario Galaxy - Nemesis King Bowser |vs.| Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance - L'Impeto Oscuro

7: SM64 Credits. So nostalgic, and epic at the same time. It really is perfect for the end of the game. Outset Island is good, but is slightly on the generic side for Zelda. Compared to SM64's credits, it doesn't compare.

8: Butter Building. Shadow Man is decent, but is rather generic. Butter Building is modern, cool, and catchy. Certainly memorable.

9: Nemesis King Bowser: Both are incredible. L'Impeto is very emotional and fast-paced. But Bowser wins, as his battle theme is the best one in the series. Orchestral, intense, epic, and most importantly, memorable.

#7: Super Mario 64 - Credits: I'm not getting any special vibe from Outset Island, but with Super Mario 64 Credits, I feel so happy and nostalgic... Though I suppose nostalgic isn't the right word considering I never played SM64. Regardless, the Credits sound beautiful.

#8 SSBB - Butter Building: From a nostalgic theme to an awesomely rocking theme, Butter Building takes the cake for me. I absolutely love playing on Halberd. Shadow Man is alright though.

#9 KH: DDD - L'Impeto I honestly am not too fond of Galaxy's soundtrack for some reason. IDK why but very few of them were memorable for me. L'Impeto on the other hand, reminds me of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team's Final Battle theme which I loved. Like MG3 said, it's emotional and fast-paced.

Aaand time for my votes!

7: Super Mario 64 Credits: Because Nostalgia and because I think it's genuinely better than Outset Island :P

8: GODDAMNIT I CAN'T DECIDE. Can you count this as a vote for both? (Besides I thought remixes weren't allowed, even official ones :P) :3

9: Nemesis King Bowser: Because it may be the greatest song in Mario History, and is definitely the best boss theme of the series (and one of the best in gaming general). The other one just doesn't do it for me :P

7-Super Mario 64 credits:
While I despise SM64 with everything, the only thing I cant despise at all is the music. Its really awesome and sure sets that 'after you finish the game' mood.
8-Shadow man:
Pretty much what GE said, except I think Shadow Man theme is better overall, but the original butter building is really good. Hard choice.

9-KH: DDD - L'Impeto:
The KH one is more interesting to listen when not playing the game :P
