OK, everyone hang on 'cause I'm going to... agree with Fyron !!
Music does not make or break a game, but it certainly enhnces it. Here's a few good examples :
- The Settlers III (Asian theme) - nice and soothing, helps me concentrate.
- Doom 1 and 2 - I downloaded all the midi files for them the other day. I can still recall a game level just by listening to its track (most of them anyway). Although when I was feeling really stressed out I'd play Doom listening to the Ramones.
- Fantasy General - Excellent track, very soothing, I used to listen to it on my stereo while reading (my wife liked it too).
- Emperor of the Fading Suns - Not so good as Fantasy General, but nice.
- SE IV - I lent my CD to a friend (to see if I could get him hooked) and now I miss the music.
- Some game whose name I can't remeber - you fly around a wireframe cylinder, shooting stuff that tries to climb out - I actually quit playing this after it stopped playing the soundtrack (when I converted to W95, I think).
Fyron, what's the best way to send Malfador a suggestion for SE V ? Go to their site and click on 'contacts' ?
