What ever happened to the good ol' days of gaming music? I work in QA, and I am pretty sure if I start humming the tune to Jago's level in Killer Instinct's someone will follow. Remember when you would start a game on the Snes, Genesis or even the Gameboy, and the tunes would stick with you? Even the crappy games had awesome music, example The Return Of The Joker on Gameboy. Seems to me like so much effort is put into the main core of a game, and the music is just something of a afterthought. It might just be that I am getting older and not caring for the new tunes? I am not sure. Last good game I played with great music was Bioshock. Do you guys feel the same? Have developers lost the music touch? Now that they can create a tune on a computer and slap into a game without ever thinking.... I remember being so hyped up when I started Starfox (SNES) and hearing that weird computer voice then that kickass music started playing in the background...oh the days.

No, it's actually a subtle way of saying "I am straightedge". This was done with peoples names way before it became a trendy thing to do. It has meaning. x= Straight Edge - Tubby, what I am known to my friends, hence xXTUBBYXx. I am 24, I've been doing that since I was kid.

Oh I failed to mention that seeing as I had not downloaded those yet, but Megaman 9 and Bionic Commando have some nice music.
