Had a great soundtrack imo, trancey sort of, mellow at times and rushing at other times, a nice mix of styles.

Other soundtracks I like are Unreal 1, and errr some more bah :)

Symphony of the Night.

Quake is really good, but i don't like listening to it when i'm not playing. Same goes for a lot of NES games.

Rise of the Triad was memorable. I wonder how it would sound to my ears now after so many years.

Of my favorite music moments, I would include the sequence at the start of the 'blastpit' section of Half-Life. It gave the feeling that something bizaar was waiting for you just around the corner.

Arx Fatalis's music also had a creepy vibe.

Apparently there's a soundtrack CD available. Haven't managed to find it for download, though.

Enclave?

#27 posted by MisYu on 2003/12/30 11:11:31

Is somewhere Enclave soundtrack, available to DL/buy/order/whatever ?

back in the day there was talk around the office about releasing a soundtrack. don't know if anything has happened on that front since I left sbz, but who knows? There's talk on teamxbox about a xmas present, but that's turned into a new years present, could be the soundtrack.

...had really cool tunes to match this great game. Even sounded good on crappy soundcards.

Blood (the first game) had good music in it.

Thank you!

I would certainly buy Enclave soundtrack, because it's the best game soundtrack I've ever listened to so far. It would be a shame to rip it off instead of buying a silver cd of it =(

There's a thing which amazes me. If they don't want to release it as standalone CD, why won't they release it as downloadable MP3? It costs them nothing then, either cash or time.

Scragbait--> I suppose that all of Blood tracks are available in MP3 format in Transfusion Quake conversion.

welcome to the 90's wrath. Quote tags do exist! and they're SOOOooo easy to use! just put '<' and '>' around a 'q' and copypaste that plagerized text! and then close 'em off with a '</' before and a '>' after the 'q'!

yay!
