It's time for a video game music quiz! I've gathered 26 tracks from different games, the goal is simply to listen to the music and then write down the correct game title (try to be as specific as possible, if confusion occurs you might not get your point). Write down the answers and PM them to me or write me an email on the address "tiduas at gmail dot com". Specify your nickname and which site you want to represent. I'm going to upload this quiz to a few selected sites and in the end I'm going to present the results to all of you. The last date to send in your correct answers is by August 2nd. Unfortunately there isn't any prize involved except for being awesome. The goal for me with this music quiz is to spread the word about some video game music that I really like while making something fun of it. It would be of great appreciation if you don't look up songs (a.k.a. cheating) since it's more fun if everyone only do this by their own skill alone. Don't get your spirits down if you think your score is low, just enjoy the music and still send in your answers! If you want to stream the music online you can do so by this link: (please do not use the comment section since I can't seem to turn it off) mixtape.me/#/playlists/32684/Or you can download the music to your computer at this link: dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1846116/TiduasMusicQuizAugust%202015.rarAnswer sheet: 01: 02: 03: 04: 05: 06: 07: 08: 09: 10: 11: 12: 13: 14: 15: 16: 17: 18: 19: 20: 21: 22: 23: 24: 25: 26:

Nice to hear that you like these kind of things! I'm eager to see how many members join in on the fun and your scores!
I forgot to clarify though, but could you please not post any answers or anything in the actual thread? Even though it's spoiler marked, it's still visable and I only want answers in PM or through mail. So please delete the answers from the thread, sorry for not clarifying that ^_^

Oh these are fun, though it would be even more so (at least for me), if we could chat about the answers a bit afterwards!
Without going into specifics as requested, I knew 11 songs for certain from the top of my hat, and there were a few more that I know I’ve heard but can’t remember where they’re from.

Definitely agree that it's a lot more fun to talk about the music afterwards, in that case something like this would be fun to do live in some way or another sometime since this format don't really support talking about the music before the competition is over. And knowing at least 11 songs is impressive btw!

Just saw this and sent 10 guesses, around 7 of which I'm pretty confident on. Let's see how I did!

HELL YES I GOT THE POCKY AND ROCKY ONE RIGHT.
EDIT: What the fuck. Was I asleep when I listened to the Street Fighter one? WHY DIDN'T I BOTHER GUESSING THAT.
I'm going to go home and be a family man now. ;_;

Feel really really dumb for not getting 3 or 6. You think you feel dumb... I missed #1! I knew it was Falcom, but absolutely did not recognize it as a Celceta track. I'm so ashamed! -Tom

A huge amount of you all extremely close to the correct answers, like saying Ys: Origins instead of Celceta or Lemmings 3D instead of "All new world of Lemmings". Some of the lucky guesses also proved correct, so even without having played all the games knowledge can get you a long way in this kind of quiz. I'm so ashamed! -Tom I see what you did there!

I see what you did there! Er... you do? Because I have no idea what I did there! I just put smileys after everything when it's not a completely serious statement. But, like, not getting Celceta IS pretty embarrassing, considering I worked on the game! Never was as fond of that soundtrack as other Ys games', though, so I guess that's my excuse. I rarely listen to it these days. -Tom

Oh, it wasn't intentional? I was referring to this sentence that I wrote: "I think you all did a wonderful job and you really shouldn't feel ashamed with only a few points scored (like many of you wrote about in the PMs)" and when you wrote "I'm so ashamed" followed by a winking smiley, I thought it was a direct response to that. But that aside, you actually worked on Memories of Celceta? Either tell me all about this now or link me towards a place where I can read about it, I'm really curious about it
