"Test your videogame audio knowledge..."

A mate recently sent me a collection of mp3s of game music and challenged me to name them all. It was actually surprisingly good fun.

Thats it! I knew it was Fantasy something or other.

Oh thank god for that, I think it would have had me annoyed forever. Thanks Pointless Babble.

Fantasy Zone. ;)

God, i hate to say this but i know what 7 is.
It's Mickey Mouse and the castle of illusion.

Number 1 is the side scrolling flying game where you look like a coloured egg, argh, whats it called? It's the shop music, on the master system. Someone must know. I think it had Fantasy in the title.

4) Sim City on the SNES

10) I agree with the Tomjam and Earl idea because all of the sounds are retro. Holy Bomb is relativly new.

1) Methink some NES game like Donkey Kong or that game where you had to defuse the bombs and open the pillar-like doors with the 2 professors in the white and black coats. Maybe it could even be something like Duck Hunt.

2) Outrun - I agree.

3) Gradius - I think it's correct.

4) Wario World or some other sort of Mario game except from 1, 2, 3 or Super Mario World 1? (Definately not Mario Kart, though).

5) Pilotwings - The SNES version, oh yes.

6) Adventure Island - Again, I agree.

7) Alex Kidd - I think it's correct, but not 100% sure...

8) Golden Axe - I think everyone knows that one...

9) Altered Beast - The evil laugh and the jingle give it away.

10) My guess is Toejam And Earl and/or Worms (Holy Bomb?).


How'd I do? Do I win something now? How about a game? He he he...
