    Cheers Necro, missed most of the reveal there but just watched the winner. Very nice, though not sure I understand it :p
    Well played Shane!

    Chemical Bros - Star Guitar

    I *think* I get what you were trying to convey with this entry but unfortunately it just didn’t work for me. It’s literally a guy taking a video from a train… scenery is ok I guess but it doesn’t improve the song really. And while I like Chemical Brothers this wouldn’t be one I’d be firing up when I think of them unfortunately. 4 for the song, 2 for the video.

    All the scenery represents the different beats in the song, did you not get that Necro? Great video. (Chemical brothers)

    Love that video, unlucky Barna


    I went for something quite different from your suggested game songs, hope you liked it :o

    I wonder do you both dress up and recreate that Pink video :p:D

    Oof, you heathen! That's Michel Gondry's finest work :D

    I can understand from Necro's position why it didnt score well. Its far and away the best thing that Noel Gallagher has ever been involved in.

    :D

    The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony






    Does seem a somewhat ‘obvious’ choice but it’s a cracker. The song kind of IS the video imo so it definitely personifies the round. 10 for the video, 6 and a half for the song, marked down slightly for overfamiliarity.

    I hate this song but great video so an easy choice for me. I didn't expect it to do so well as I didn't know how you were rating this round. Delighted with 2nd place.

    Great reveal Neccers and well done Shane

    Tusk linked me to a brilliant version of that. I'll put it up if it doesn't feature in this round.

    No Tetris theme was entered, sadly. Would have done very well.

    Persona 5 - Last Surprise






    Funky number this but I just wasn’t enamoured with it at all tbh. I reckon it might have sunk in better with me if I was familiar with the series but I just didn’t get much from this. Sorry…

    The XX – Intro




    I actually really like instrumental music in games as it’s less distracting whilst playing them. This was grand… I did try the 7 minute version and gotta say that would have done… much much worse as it’s basically the same thing for longer, which gets a bit meh after a while.

    Irish Aris


    Lacuna Coil-Swamped




    I just don’t know about this song. The intro is really very strange and just puts me off the track immediately but the more I listen the more I enjoy. I think it’s her voice? It’s a bit weird. Anyways here was where it ended up.

    Cities - Beck (from Sound Shapes)





    This is kinda funky. I’m not a big fan of Beck anyways so this is about as high as it could really go in all honesty.

    Final Fantasy 7 - Golden Saucer Theme




    Tbh, you could have picked pretty much ANY other track from FF7 and it would likely have been top 3 material. Boss theme, Main battle theme, Jenova them, One Winged Angel just wins the category straight up - just not this one. I dunno, it’s so sickly sweet and squealing at points it just puts me off. It’s still much better than what most games have these days but yeah, you could have been much higher :P

    I entirely don't understand how these songs fit into games. I haven't attempted to play anything much but puzzles since I was a teenager and I remeber moody stuff and electronic noises and some scarey alarm like stuff.
    These days even mobile game apps for simple things first thing I do is mute them :o
    So saying all that my placing is ok with me :D

    Haha, I still remember playing that Tony Hawk demo to death when it first came out, gave you the choice of two different skate parks iirc. This is a fun track and I enjoyed the entry. I was far too cheap as a student to buy the full game :D

    *Looks around nervously* You’ve been paying attention to my interpretative dance for this track haven’t you :eek: I just really like this theme with the chanting, it stands out a mile. Good choice.

    Haven't played it in awhile actually, might have a few beers and throw it on now tonight, to help de-stress after all that chaos in that other place this evening...
