Red Alert 2.
I’ve gone four hours without mentioning it
By far my favorite game of all time. 11/10
Hell yeah! There are dozens of us! No game has topped it for me
I was so disappointed in RA3. It was absolute shit
I completely agree. That was my biggest disappointment in gaming.
Video games changed so much during the 90s. I feel like this describes a single year.
Soundtracks have always been fire though. I still have the Streets of Rage 2 soundtrack, Red Alert soundtrack, Sim City 3000, etc in my playlist.
Carmageddon’s sound track was made by Fear Factory 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nine in Nails did the music and sound fx for quake.
I feel like it might have started the trend, but I’m not sure.
Edit: also, I hadn’t thought about fear factory in decades. Time to get double bass drummed right back to high school!
It’s Doom.
It’s literally a photo of id software devs. You can tell by John Romero’s glorious mane.
Doom 1 and Doom 2016 are in this picture.
How big was the team for 2016?
Let alone neither carmack nor romero had anything to do with it :p
Morrowind.
I still listen to this music when working. Puts me right in the mood
Maybe if the book was eight times taller
The book is from the game and actually only has 2 pages in it.
Morrowind!
Crazy Taxi
Baulders Gate
Goldeneye
Spin the roulette wheel of all Sonic games.
The snowboarding level, and the carnival stage.
Lol which one, there’s like a dozen of each of those themes!
That’s the best thing about them!
In the 1990s the only Sonic level with snowboarding was Ice Cap zone.
And Robotnik Winter Zone in Triple Trouble, and Ice Cap from Sonic Adventure, City Escape from SA2, and White Acropolis in Sonic 06, and the entirety of the Sonic Riders games.
I was doodling that little blue fucker on a snowboard all through 1st grade lmao.
Half Life.
Age of Empires II.
Homeworld.
Homeworld hired an actual band though.
Jet set radioooooooo
Crusader: No Remorse
MechWarrior 2, especially Ghost Bear’s Legacy
Descent 1 + 2
Dungeon Keeper 2
Unreal 2
Populous
Prince of Persia series
+1 for mech warrior. Played that in the CD player a ton.
Looking Glass Studio
- System Shock
- Thief
- Theif 2
Miss them so much
Nobuo Uematsu carried hard with his music. Squeenix hasn’t been the same since he left the company
Completely agree. That being said, they still have Masayoshi Soken, and he is easily in the top 3 modern Video Game Composers.
So much of my emotional investment in FFXIV is enhanced by the music, especially in Endwalker.
Megaman 2 for me. Shit was hard but I still listen to the soundtrack
MegaMan 2 isn’t a 90’s game though.
Donkey Kong Country had like. One of the best video game soundtracks of all time. Game was really hard towards the end too. One of my fav games of all time.
Doom could apply here too. ID was very much a small studio of dorks with a limited budget.
About the majestic soundtrack of Doom: That’s why it’s still my ringtone.
Populous: The Beginning
Black and WhiteWarcraft 1 & 2
Monkey Island 1-3
I could go on.
Black and White was 2000s
Ah, so it was. That era is pretty much all blurred together in my mind.
