You want pray game? (Video Game Music small giveaway/contest)

[Cheerios]

Here's the deal! I have a Steam game to give away (Counter Strike: Global Offensive beta), but there's a game you gotta play first to win it.

I'm going to list 10 clips (20s-45s each) from video game songs, If you can name at least 7 out of these 10 songs (Song title AND game), then the Steam game is all yours. I can also gift the game to someone else on your behalf if you won't use it (will not gift to disqualified people).

A few notes:

1.) Guesses can be posted in this thread, but final answers (7-10 songs in your answer) MUST be PM'd to me to be declared the winner. (do not PM me your guesses). Keep in mind that if you happen to be wrong on a few of your guesses, other posters can hijack your answers for their own gain.

2.) I may occasionally chime in to mention if you are correct or incorrect, but I will not tell you which of your guesses specifically are right or wrong.

3.) All song clips will be taken from NES, SNES, N64, or PS1 USA titles. Sorry, no Sega systems!

4.) Maximum of 2 PMs per person. Any more will disqualify you.

5.) If nobody wins within 24 hours, I will post additional songs if I feel they're necessary.

6.) New accounts made during June 2012 and/or have less than 100 posts are not eligible to win.

All songs will be right here for easy listening.

Whoever sends me the answers first in a PM is the winner, and I will try to post winners as soon as possible. If multiple people PM me winning answers, then only the first to do so will be the winner.

Good luck!

This is fucking awesome lol

#4 is killing me, I've heard it way too many times not to know this.
#8 every fucking person should know, so good.

To throw out the first guess, I'm thinking #3 is from Front Mission: Gun Hazard, but I don't know the track.

[Xno Kappa]

Wow I don't know any of these lol.

[Charismatic]

I don't want the game so I am going to help everyone here because I can.

1) Journey to Silius, first stage.
2) Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter, Ken's Theme
3) Don't know
4) Don't know
5) Should, but don't, know... so familiar.
6) Legend of Legaia, Rim Elm
7) Megaman X6, Infinity Minijon's stage
8) Don't know
9) Also don't know
10) No idea

[Caiyuo]

Tempted to do the same since my computer can't even run most PC games, but I'll sit on #4 and #8 for awhile to make people work for it.

e: actually scratch that, I'll throw out hints

#4 - think japanese power rangers but just one that flies and never talks
#8 - WOLFPACK

[Charismatic]

It is killing me that I can't remember which #2 is... pretty sure it is from the vs series.

[Caiyuo]

A friend noted that the game in OP isn't out until August, is this like a pre-order gift?

That's how I was about #4, I was thinking like an rpg of a medieval demon army and that was completely fucking off lol

[Kaisha]

Really? You guys don't know #3? MGS: VR Missions.

I'm disappointed in you all!

[Charismatic]

Got it!

Sorry, I should have clarified that it is the cs:go beta, not the retail game. Post edited to reflect that! I apologize if that rustled anyone's jimmies!

Even with this I can't find the song, lol

[Kaisha]

Even with this I can't find the song, lol

VR music overall was pretty awesome.

[Laude]

I don't care for the game either, so I'll help I guess.

#5 Star Ocean - Calm Time

The ones I know are already answered, and there's some I don't know.

[Caiyuo]

Fuckin nice, thanks for halp. Submitted answers in hopes to gift it to a friend on the forum who's hugely into FPS. As far as what I could identify, #4 was Ultraman, "Briefing" and #8 was U.N. Squadron, "Wolf Pack Squadron". U.N. Squadron has fucking fantastic music in general and on that note, this contest had pretty excellent picks.

#5 Star Ocean - Calm Time

Oooh, I knew I shoulda known that one. I loved FD so much... but I mostly remember the anime OP music (Heart, I think it was called.)

[Cheerios]

Looks like Caiyou is the speedy winner for this contest!

I'll likely do another contest in a few days, but will probably up the requirements from 7/10 to maybe 12/15 to add some longevity! I had a feeling Chari was gonna fill in a lot of the blanks as well, but good guesses all around!

Here are the answers for #9 and #10

#9. Clip starts at 0:51s


#10


Answers to the rest of the songs:

Spoiler: show

1) Journey to Silius - Stage 1
2) Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter - Ken's Theme
3) Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions - Advanced Mode
4) Ultraman - Briefing
5) Star Ocean - Calm Time
6) Legend of Legaia - Rim Elm
7) Megaman X6 - Infinity Minijon's stage
8) U.N. Squadron - Wolfpack Squadron Battle

[Charismatic]

If you want to do another one, I can probably help finding some really obscure stuff that'll be tough to guess and I won't help out either... should make things more interesting.
For example, if I was gonna do something from Legaia I'd have done like... one of the dance tracks from the club or something. (or maybe Baka Fighter, but everyone should remember that... PARTY PARTY, OH YEAH!)

[Caiyuo]

ヽ(´ー｀)ノ　Thanks!

I liked the level of obscurity in that each person had just a few they could add in, but yeah, one where people need hints and have to genuinely hunt for shit would be fun, too.

[Cheerios]

Well, I figured that the target audience for CS:GO would have some difficulty in obscure game tracks (versus offering a Final Fantasy prize or something and having a ton of people participating). I'll definitely be adding more obscure tracks next time, but it'll be achievable.
