Awesome! Please do one with Phantasy Star IV! This game has a kickass introduction too!

Oh my god! I wasn't aware anyone even knew of this game, much less would do a review of it!
I spent many a long night on this one, when you finally beat it(and as he says there are TONS of levels) it really does feel rewarding, and you miss the soundtrack right away.... Which ultimately causes you to play again, heh.
If there's one thing about capcom I'll never knock, and always love, it's the music in their games. The Magic Sword soundtrack is one you just cant miss, i highly recommend it to everyone.

12.21.2008 - 22:11 | NitrousX - Well done!!! U FAIL!
Well done Ben,you failed. You see sometimes, when you don't have on what to review...just don't do it.Now why am I writing this:
MAGIC SWORD is definetly NOT a game you might not heard of(or it's soundtrack)...no honestly dude, Liz and Wiz was ok,but this game is actually pretty FAMOUS. YES,you might not have heard of it if your in new zeland but hey what about the rest of the world.In fact the game is included in CAPCOM Classic Collection for the PS2 AND PSP?!?! And you think it's underated(it says so in the video's description)...And yes a lot of people are quite familiar with the soundtrack!!!! Sometimes,when you don't have what to review on don't do it cause it's LAME...so what's the next GSYMDK - Super Mario brothers 1, Zelda or WoW? >

Yo dude...I know Magic Sword is one hell of a capcom classic, that's WHy I wouldn't review it for real, but just feature it's music which is, compared to the rest of capcom's catalog, pretty over looked compared to the MEGAMAN, MAKAI MURA, FINAL FIGHT, STREET FIGHTER, STRIDER and all that MUSIC...
Thanks for commenting...

I've never heard of it.

12.21.2008 - 23:03 | NitrousX - Ermmmm...
OK firts to admin:
I REALLY AM a new member,the reason for the "rant" is cause it really pissed me off!(actually,that's why i registered ;D )
Second, to ben:
Look dude,all I'm saying it that perhaps you should consider renaming the show to Good Gaming Tunes or somethin'...but to put such a famous game(and btw rattlehead91 i pitty you)in a category You might don't know...it's kind of unapropriate...

Great soundtrack Ben. And even if the game may be more well known than other titles, it's soundtrack may not be. GSYMDK is about the music you might don't know. If the game is unknown, and I've never heard of this game's soundtrack. Thanks Benzaie! You have blown my mind with a catchy tune once again.

Also, I've never really heard of this game until about a week ago (picked up a complete SNES copy), so up until last week, it was unknown to me unfortunately.

To admin:
Dude no offence,but i guess you haven't spent much time(or cash...or both) in the arcades,as this game was in atleast 3 arcade pubs(out of 4
) in my(small) town, and the bankrupcy reason for a lot of my firends(but not for me cause i'm an uber pro!!!!...ok i sucked too..)...

Ill give you a hint, NitrousX. Theres an M in the title of this show. What does that little letter stand for? MIGHT. Its about soundtracks you MIGHT dont know, not that you certainly dont know. You call this fail in a rude manner because you think its too popular, which is a complete judgement call. I certainly havent heard of this game, and I spent plenty of time arcade hopping in the day. I can understand the admin thinking youre just a troll.

12.22.2008 - 00:47 | NitrousX
No dude if i were a troll,i'd base my harassment on pure...nothing.
But I DO have a reason to think...erm...the way i think...The whole problem is with this tytle GSYMDK?! No honestly GSYMDK...why so long!!! And besides YOU MIGHT DON'T KNOW...dude you MIGHT don't know EVERY possible tune,a friend of mine (10+ in PC games) heard the ZELDA theme FOR FIRST TIME 2 WEEKS AGO,when i decided to remember the good old times...I mean why not simply name the show to Game Tunes that Rock (GTR?!) and then review the songs...you don't have to add YMDK that like nostalgia critic named his show NCOMTBADRCHRAVGN (Nostalgia Critic of Old Movies That are Bad,Also Doing Random Coundwons And Having Rant With The Angry videogame Nerd...)...I know it's Ben's shows and he can name it whatever he wants,but that's the same as saying that if i name my child Shredderoptimusprimevoltronbatmanlukeskywakerdukenukemneo i wouldn't piss his teachers or classmates...
All i'm saying is that in it's attempt to be describtive the name actually includes evrey tune in the universe(ok mabye without SMB 1:1)...Overall the idea of putting great tunes of videogames is great,but PLEASE consider nameing it GTR or something shorter and less describtive...

I know what you mean, but srsly, who the hell cares about the title? I would't even care if it was called Honey Coated Monkey Balls on a STICK. The only thing that I care about is the content. But, the part with the "you might don't know about" would be indeed more simple if Ben wouldn't narrow it down to rare games or games he thinks that are not well known and simply giving us good tunes from all kinds of games.
oh...
And now I'll go listen to the SMB 1 theme as loud as I can and in infinite loop mod.
-
12.22.2008 - 01:30 | NitrousX - Well
Well Alucat here's the deal...I am visiting the site almost every day for the last 4 months, and today was the first day i watched GSYMDK,because i saw the logo of MAGIC SWORD.When i saw the GSYMDK i was a bit...scared.I mean i thought it was the nuclear physics class or something.Now I imagine if i try to convince a friend to watch the show:
-Hey have you ever heard of this great show GSYMDK?
-Sorry dude i already know this song,but i don't like Village People...
Abreviations are ment to be short and simple to pronounce,just like saying WoW insted of World of Warcraft,or AVGN instead of Angry video game nerd(yes the last is not that short but it sounds easy to pronounce)...
And Ben please do understand that I'm NOT doing this to MOCK you in ANY way! I really find the idea of showing pepole rocking games tunes is REALLY GREAT,but honestly why the long title...I told you how i felt the first time I saw GSYMDK and i doubt i'm the only one,the abreviation just repels newcommers! Wishing you all the best...

you are welcome and free to express your opinion.
with that said hut the fuck up.
no dont touch that post box, and just shut the fuck up, its for your own good, this way you might still be able to have people who tolerate you here instead of just people who hate you, sadly you've shot your chance at friends but no use crying over spilt milk eh?
now be a good little idiot and shut the fuck up, hand off the keyboard, and shut the fuck p, its not that hard

great soundtrack, really epic. And I never heard of this game, looks kewl, better look for it on ebay ^_^
-
12.22.2008 - 01:50 | The Man Behind the Curtain - Carrier Air Wing?
First and Last Track: Excellent!
Second Track: Is it just me or does it sound like the weapons select music from Carrier Air Wing? (Also from Capcom) Is Capcom known for reusing music?
-
12.22.2008 - 01:51 | NitrousX - ...no...
Dude honestly now you're what i'd call a troll...every person with IQ bigger than 9 would understand from my last post that i do this to try and help the show get some speed,and generate a larger fanmass(cause i find it interesting).If Ben say it's not ok,the I'll accept.Like Alucat said "I would't even care if it was called Honey Coated Monkey Balls on a STICK.The only thing that I care about is the content." And I would agree with this,but Alucat...you already know the content...it' like if Pepsi change the label of their cola nad put a large middle finger with a big "YOU SUCK" sign on the bottle...you would still buy it cause you know it's Pepsi,but if you see this for first time you'll probably pass by. And Maverick 21...before you go cursing me or calling me idiot why don't you read the Terms of Usage you agree everytime you post something...
Honestly Ben sorry if I were a bit too sarcastic or rude with my firs post,but do reconsider my advice,i don't wish anything but good stuff for the show...
-
12.22.2008 - 02:12 | benzaie - alright...Quote:If Ben say it's not ok,the I'll accept
It's not okay...next time use the forum for such a request...Thanks for enjoying the show GSYMDK...originaly called GSYMDKBTASPDSS...for Game Soundtrack You Might Don't Know But That are Still Pretty Damn Sweet....Sweeet !!!
-
12.22.2008 - 02:15 | NitrousX - ...
OK,then again sorry if I offended you in any way...looking forward for next tunes

-
12.22.2008 - 02:18 | Asimov - Love the title
The title is good because it's long. The humor is in the convoluted abbreviation. Ben can't please everyone, especially the ones who have tiny brains and can't understand the awesomeness of the title.
Your advice has been noted and found wanting. Repeating your advice ad nauseum is annoying.

Good job Ben.
This is truly a Game Soundtrack I don't know. Good job.
And Nitrous, congratulations on your great gaming knowledge to know every single soundtrack out there, so you do know all of them. We are truly humbled by your presence.

Kinda hard to play an arcade game when there are no arcades near me. Arcade's are pretty much a dead thing in America.

Guys he didn't really troll at all, as his original post can be considered constructive criticism. Lay off.
