Video Game Music Quiz

Got 271 and 273 (271 is my desktop picture =P)

272 I have a hunch on, but I'd have to look for a bit, and I KNOW 275, but I wanna check on that first.

EDIT - yep, got 275

Got 271 and 273. I've heard 272 and 275, but I have to do some checking to be sure of what they are. I know who composed 272; I'm just not sure which game it's from.

EDIT: Yep, I was right on 272; up to 211 points. Now to find 275...

Like there's any doubt on #271.

I think we at GFF have an unfair advantage as far as knowing the source of #272, even though it's one of the tracks from the game that HASN'T been spread around yet.

#273 I know from a lol remix.

That's ok, I have no clue what it is at all

The only one I got wrong was because I opened an NSF file to check a song, and I found it, but for some reason I thought I was listening to a different NSF set and put up the wrong game. I'll miss those 3 points forever

Not really like that, but I downloaded every track on my hard drive, then took a listen of all track. If I knew the answer, then I submit my answer. But I clicked the wrong track, so I answered for the wrong track. Anyway, because we get the answer afterwards I knew I would never could have guessed that one I answered by mistake.

Yeah, my hunch resulted in nothing for me on 272. I wish I knew what this unfair advantage we had was.

Well, it's probably not an advantage to people who've only been here a month. :\

Random quessing gets me some garbage points, but I get some songs wrong because I was off by just a little on the game. I wish (and suggested) that you be allowed to reguess songs you were close on only one more time.

Okay
#271 - Finished that game on arcade last year at the university...free quarters ftw!

#272 - Heard that somewhere for sure but I can't get my finger on it yet

#273 - I have that game and it has been covered XX times

#274 - I probably have a VGmix of that song somewhere on my pc...i'll have to check it out

#275 - This has been remixed by one of the greatest VGM artist i know.


8 points it is!

Reading that, my thought process was something like,

"Huh? I don't get it. I mean, I know who it is bu--*

........UH.

(one quick check later) Ohhh yeah..."

Let's see,
Track 1: In SotW
Track 2: In SotW
Track 3: In BSC
Track 4: Here
Track 5: Still unaccounted for. Someone needs to top us off already. :-/

I like how the tracks are all in chronological order too. :biggrin:

Oh, duh, I am moron. I gave up looking for 272 too soon, because of all these crazy backwards hints. I did figure out the composer though, so I was able to get it now. And I also finally see this advantage, but it certainly didn't help me.

Bleh, I should have joined this forum sooner

Nooo! I went back to get an earlier song that I now know because of BSC, and I had already incorrectly guessed it awhile ago. Would've been worth 7 points. :-/

Hi folks,

I was only recently introduced to this awesome quiz about a month ago at another forum, and have been enjoying it ever since. By the time I was able to make it to the top 5, the top list was disabled (damn cheats!)

Anyways, I thought I'd join the only active thread on this quiz I'm aware of.

Edit: Here are my stats: vgmq.garoux.net/?s=7&id=1968

BSC has been good in the regard that I've found a couple tracks through it that I may not have known about. The bad side of it is, I've downloaded some music, and I've heard some songs I recognize. I then spend an hour looking for them on vgmq, before realizing I only recognized them because of the BSC.

Damn, it's been a while since I last checked in with VGM Quiz. I still suck at it though. Right now I'm going through the database and only guessing on the ones I KNOW, and I've been pretty successful so far, over 50 points with only 15 guesses.

I really need to brush up on my chiptune and Sega music though. Damn. If the contest ever ends, I really hope this guy releases a list of all the songs. Some of these rarer songs are hella cool. I'd guess at them to see what game they're from, but I don't want to hurt my average.

Finally found #233 and #140

It's just awesome when you just play a random game and go: Hey, that's in the quiz!
