The music is horribly off-key, but thank God I don't have to listen to that terrible guitar sh*t any more. You get a 3 for murdering that song.

It sounds like its the fifth note thats the most...incorrect. Too low... maybe its just a halfstep too low...

Good job, and although you put effort into this, but I vote 4/5 cuz the "It's not a defect, its..." thing is getting old.
May 7th, 2005
(0)
4/5. The riff goes like this (starting on a C): C A A G E G A. The E is the note that's off. Fix it and you're golden.

Hell yeah

You've got great pixel art skills. :D So you made this with modplug? Where did you get your high quality NES instruments from? I've been hunting them forever.

I laugh at anyone who gives anything less than than 5. If I feel a site is vote worthy, it gets a 5, but it has to be good. There is another type of voteworthy site that gets a 1, however...

SgtGrumbles ( ) 2005-05-06 19:33:07 did NES songs really sound that good in the first place? The later games did, like battletoads as a random example.

This is a good one. The music reminds me of Ninja Gaiden for some reason. It's just a little bit off though, otherwise it'd be a 5.
