    There is TOO MUCH music to listen to in that zip file. I'm arranging it all into nice 7 minute suites, opposed to the three and a half hours you'd have otherwise.

    Very Bourne-ish (not close to be that good obviously). Powell should start to charge royalties, he´d get rich.


    True, the BOURNE scores have influenced a shitload of scores during the last couple of years.

    But is this Splinter Cell score any good?
    Love Maintitles. It's full of Wanders.

    There's like 40 songs in that score and only a couple sound like Bourne - some of the Iceland stuff. Most of it doesn't - like the New York & Kinshasa stuff.

    D, this release is over 3 hours long. I've edited the best tracks together and have made a nice 50 minute album. I shall share soon... smile

    As promised - my edited version of the Splinter Cell Double Agent score:

    http://rapidshare.com/files/137360099/SCDA.rar.html

    The password is "mt". This is a totally legal download, as the tracks are available on the composers site which is linked above.

    Probably best for people who don't know what to expect to start listening at track 3, otherwise you may get bad first impressions. wink
  7. Thanks for this Anthony, will try your mix out. Expecting to crawl through yet another 3 hour long score, is not what I had in mind.

  8. I'd ignore Anthony's rar file. The audio quality is terrible, as well as the track selection. Just go to the main page and download the mp3 links starting with the Iceland Extraction one. Most of the best stuff is in those 10 or so clips anyway and faster than downloading off rapidshare.

    Love this score so want to put my 2 cents in. ;-)

    What are you talking about? Did you listen to it?

    What do you mean by ''track selection''? That is 90% of what is in the compelte score, minus the looping 19 minute tracks which I've made shorter.

    Also I'd like to hear where you think the audio quality is terrible...it sounds exactly the same as what's on Behaviour's site to me...

    Nice to see you're already making friends on your first day here. rolleyes

    No worries, Anthony.
    It takes more than a one-off semi-troll (who may have the best intentions, but who apparently didn't actually read the thread as the link to the original site/downlaod was mentioned way before he did) to dissuade me from trying your own mix. smile

  11. Listening to it now, and this sounds in no way terrible at all. Nicely mixed I must say... Timothycrash needs a hearing aid, that's all.

    The music is very spy, sneaky, suspense, Bournish, but as I would have imagined repetitive. So far the Iceland Suite is pretty cool.

  18. Didn't mean to rock the boat here lol.

    Your audio quality is definitely lower. It's like you have a filter on everything and the volume is much quieter. Compare the 'Main Menu' you have with the one from the composers site. Totally different version, much quieter, much duller mix. (Ya I did download it.)

    You recut these tracks - but in the process you messed up. :-/

    No need to get your panties in a bunch though. You just need better skills.

    You might as well just say "No need to get your panties in a bunch though. You're just a fuckwit and I'm obviously a lot smarter than you. I'm a better human being."

    Jeez.

    He is... I just had a listen also and there's no discernable difference in the quality. And even if there was, he could go about saying it in a slightly friendlier way I think.

  23. The BAFTA Video Game Awards were presented recently. The nominations were:

    LittleBigPlanet - Mat Clark / Daniel Pemberton / Kenny Young
    Fable II - Russell Shaw
    Fallout 3 - Inon Zur
    Dead Space - Jason Graves / Development Team
    Assassin's Creed - Jade Raymond / Patrice Desilets / Claude Langlais
    Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots - Harry Gregson-Williams

    The BAFTA site cites Dead Space's "Development Team" in the citation but I think the score is credited elsewhere to Jason Graves?

  25. Talk about reviving a lost topic. I should really start posting here some more, seeing I love videogame scores (more than current film music actually).

    But I cannot agree with Dead Space winning an award: the copy I heard featured lots of noise, crashes, bangs and just a total lack of melody to be considered a classic in my book. Nah, then I like HGW's synthesized Metal Gear Solid 4 a lot more. Fable II was nice background music, but no more than that. Can't comment on the others.

    Looking out for the Killzone 2 score which could see a release in the future. Upon playing the game I will check out how it sounds. What I heard already shows promise.

    I made a 12 minute suite of that one, it's rather soft yet creepy, and I think it resembles Brian Tyler's 'Darkness Falls' in atmosphere a little.

    One of the better soundtracks by Bill Brown I heard is 'Lineage II: The Chaotic Chronicle'. But what's he been doing recently that's good?

    Jade Raymond is one of the producers of the game, so I guess those French are part of the dev team. But no mention of the composer is indeed strange.

    I thought that too!

    Dead Space was just credited with "Development Team" on the BAFTA site and I added Graves' name because I saw it on Amazon.

    We are talking BAFTA remember!

    You are absolutely right, Darkness Falls (the best Tyler score so far IMHO) resembles Undying a lot. I completed the pc game btw so when I bought the OST Darkness Falls, I thought 'hey that's like Undying! Same kinds of strings etc.

    Nice scores.
