Yup. It's a great soundtrack alright. The actual title is "Technosoft Game Music Collection Vol. 15 ~ Best of Thunder Force". I downloaded it from the Galbadia Hotel a while ago. Does this rip here have a different bitrate than the on at GH?

Oh, and the first four tracks are from Thunder Force III, not II.

Variable bitrate!
I dont ever care about that. I just want to hear it :D

I prefer v-0! :D Thanks for the upload.

Thank you, morrigan.

nice upload, i dled it because the quality looks better in yours.

so thank you morrigan666, you win the hotlink in the shmup thread :D

Excelente, obrigado! v ^_^

Finally someone that agrees with me on that! Bitrate doesn't matter, as long as you got the music, your great to go! ( Good upload )

If it's the only rip of it's kind, then sure. I agree. It's better than not having it at all. Right?

But, if it's something that's been going around for a while, and there's many uploads of it, then I diasgree. Why even bother uploading it if it sounds exactly the same or worse than the original? It's a waste if you ask me. Bitrate is a big deal to me, now, because I want to hear each instrument in the track loud and clear, unlike in many poor, low-quality rips (anything under 192, IMO). Just a personal preference of mine.

Just a personal preference of mine.

Violent Storm and Gaiapolis are two perfect examples of not being able to hear instruments loud and clear.

( And this goes for real instruments aswell, not just chipsound )

Yeah sure, it sounds perfect when listening to it on a computer but, try listening to it on a CD Player! You'll notice alot of instruments in it don't show up properly! Regardless if it IS in high quality! 320 does NOT sound anyway superior then 192 quality! I don't care if there was 10 uploads of a certain album on here with different bitratings on them, it would ALL sound the same!


How he or she COMPOSES the song is what really matters here, not the bitrate. Motoi is one example of hearing wonderful instruments loud and clear.
( Though, Mario Tennis sounds like it was composed in a goddamn small room )

I actually tested a song with different bitratings ( One being 128 and the other being 320 ) and burnt both of them on a disc. They both sound EXACTLY alike! One does not sound any '' Louder '' or '' Clearer '' then the other! ( And as I stated above, this goes for real instruments, not just chipsound )

I'll tell you what I believe. I believe that there is no such thing as a high or low quality rip! As I said on my first post in this thread, as long as you got the music, your great to go! ..... unless you want to provide me proof of a
'' Low quality '' rip, then private message me. If not, I disagree on what you say.

Thats of course if you listen to Video Game Music on a CD Player. If not, then just ignore what I posted.

qqqqqwe :(


i have a HQ hp, & the difference between 128 & VBR & 320 is audible for me...

enough about this kind of neverending discuss.


if you like dl & thank otherwise pass this thread.

What does HQ hp mean? ( Please spell out your words ) I've stated on my first post; Good upload. Which means I appreciated it=)

But your missing the point, I'm NOT the one who has a problem here.

I NEVER post negative things about anyones upload, just simply telling my opinion to cybernetic saiyan.

Apologize if I sounded mean or bad there.

high quality headphone & the bad thing for me it's that i hear the little distortion in the background (especialy for the treble) & yes, 320 is clearer with my hp (headphone)

I NEVER post negative things about anyones upload, just simply telling my opinion to cybernetic saiyan.

And I respect your opinion.


Apologize if I sounded mean or bad there.

Same here. I didn't have to explain my opinion, but I did anyway. Apologies to morrigan. This is a good upload man.

Thanks for clearing that up.

If that was what cybernetic saiyan was trying to say, I would not have said nothing. But lets keep in mind that not everyone has high quality headphones like you do. ( So its audible for you ) I'm satisfied with the headphones that I got.:kirbyfly:

Yeah, distortion can be annoying at times but, I have a program that can make my music louder and still maintain the great quality of it!=)

It�s like that conversation about flac.
what the hell is that? losslesss what?

I dont care.... i have an mp3 player not a flack player. i like to drive my bike and listen some castlevania or sonic....in mp3...
all the soundtracks and cds i have are in mp3. and it is a very strict rule of mine to have everything in mp3...
:)

I totally agree with you on the mp3 thing. It's a must. I'm always listening to my favorite VGM in my car.

It's soo cool Listening SHINING FORCE III...better....
MOTOI SAKURABA on the highway. :D

Best Party Dance Music Car EVER.
XDXDXD

Man...this rip sounds hella good! Did you rip this from the actual CD, morrigan? It sounds like it. :D

Technosoft music, like this here, is great for road trips, or just for driving very fast. If I was a pilot in the Navy, you already know what I'd be listening to most of the time.

I download it years ago.... from the internet....
and it is ripped from the original.....
i wish i had thsi cd original.....
it's worth it

It sure is. Good lucking finding a copy, though. lol

Thank you very much!

Cool TANKS!!!!

I was expecting that. It's basically the same Tehcnosoft cd releases with one extra. wow. 1 extra. that really makes up for wasting money on something already released. They could at least made like SuperSweep did with Donpachi and Dodonpachi 2 cd release of all in game audio, which was not released. There was plenty of unreleased material.
I feel disappointed with these. :/

Yes, I like it could be a collection of box, 1 piece of 1 A is a waste of money!

Being a box collection is cool. And I do see how it will fit for you as a collector, specially when Thunder Force music is so well accept even to these days. But they could have used a bit of imagination. So some games, like MAD STALKER were released digital it's X68 soundtrack version. At least a kind of secret key where you could access their database for the other in game arranges. I don't know. I am just saying they could offer more then 1 new arrange, if they wanted it.

I got this!

THANKS > < !! now I can use my budget for other OST.

looking forward to your release, VBR, 320k will do but lossless + SCAN is much appreciated ~ *

I think you PMed me last time for 100,99 FLAC, I still have it in lossless so if I have I'll post it later = )

That Thunder Cross looks tasty :p

Yes, FLAC of Thunder Force III would be awesome indeed.

Would definitely like to hear that Best Of at some point... :)

my copy of 2, 3, 4, best 2014 will arrive next week ~

but I doubt with the new arrangements coz what they included in the Technology 2013 was so disappointing > <

really?

that is reason enough for me to buy it???
Ok, some people might like that track a lot, but not me. that is the bonus thing....?
I wish they could learn from CAVE. An original disc + arrange disc. NOW THAT... I would waste money on.

I felt like a 4Koma Gaijin today X__x





























Wasted again O__o

Should have ordered "Best of 2014" only > <

Hi to all,
