Yep. Sure is. Check the OP and PM me with your choice. If your choice is a steam game, I'll need your e-mail address as well.

Y-axis controls are inverted because it's a flight game :P
Wasn't there a setting to set them to normal? If not, look up the engine rewrite D2X-XL. That's got a lot more options.

Yarp, sure is. I suppose "I loved that game" is good enough to satisfy the rules.

Like I said to BB, check the OP and shoot me a PM, with your choice. If you choose a steam game, send me your e-mail as well.

Nope. Sorry. That was a fun game in its day though!

Hmm... Nope, it isn't that. It's a racing game. Trying to think of what batman game you're talking about.

What, you expect me to go on youtube and start listening to random game soundtracks from the 90's and hope to catch one that matches one of your samples?

I don't recognize any of these

That's right.

Here's a hint.

Number 23 - Developed by Terminal Reality, Published by Microsoft. The third of similar games developed by TR, second published by Microsoft.

I figured out 3 more on my own. I think the problem is your audience is too young.

If my audience is too young something is wrong. I remember c64 and intelliVision games clearly, and both are before my time. So is DOS, to some degree.

More likely, my audience didn't get into computers until they were older. That and they probably don't have a DOSBOX install with 3GB of DOS games, like I do.

^ Yup, that's it.

I vote if there is ever a sequel to this contest by you or anybody else, add console games from the 90's.

Okay but somebody else has to buy the games.

For the record, I'd recognise the tune from Army Moves (C64) anywhere. I figured that might be too old school for the majority of you guys though.

OOOOH so close. TV was developed by Terminal Reality but published by 3DRealms. You're on the right track, though.

I have forgotten HOW BAD FM synthesis could be. Those samples reminded me! Thank heavens for digital sampling and Miles Fast Audio that really kicked gaming audio forward.

#23 is Hellbender! It's like Descent. Fly around, blow up shit, what's not to love? You basically defend Earth from a species scientists created. Think of it like FarCry...but in aircraft...and with horrible graphics...oh who am I kidding? There's not much in common. XD

Microsoft has the trial free to play here (it errorss when trying to install but it still works):
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/DESKAPPS/GAM...ic/Hellbender/


The sound track you uploaded sounds a lot better than the original in the game. XD


Wow, I didn't know Terminal Reality made Fly! II and are still around today.

#20 is from Wacky Wheels, I have that song stuck in my head, I've spent a lot of time with that game. A really good SNES Mario Kart clone for PC.

So I'm uploading 10 new tracks from early consoles (nes/snes/n64/SMS/SMD)
and one from PSX just for HeyZeus. If you guys can't figure out Sample27, I disown this forum

YAR! Sure is.

The sound file I uploaded is from the CD version of the game, with sound quality at max. Recorded in Audacity at 44100, 32-bit float. Exported as 320kbit MP3.

I didn't want my recording process to detract from the audio quality, but it may be a bit overkill

Sure! If you can identify one of the sound samples that hasn't been claimed.

HERE

I'm uploading another 11 tracks, so no excuses.
