Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Cash Bandicoot FOREVER
The music and character have annoyed me since release.
I just remember the original game as this mediocre platformer that was badly received yet gets recognition because it was the only popular platformer on PS1 so everyone played it. Klonoa and tomba were far better than crash bandicoot ever achieved.

I have always loved the first Gran Turismo game's intro, as much for the excellent use of "Everything Must Go" by the Manics.
It took me a near decade to find that on CD!

I've always been fond of the Street Fighter Alpha 3 intro.I have always loved the first Gran Turismo game's intro, as much for the excellent use of "Everything Must Go" by the Manics.

This is the strongest nostalgia I've had in a long time! Have a few songs from the game in my Spotify library

That was embarrassing even back at the time.Duke Nukem: A Time to Kill.
Game was pretty mediocre but always liked the intro. Especially the track.
Haven't actually watched it in years so it may have aged terribly! NSFW for pixelated boobage.0 -

This is the actual full CD release, just over six minutes long!.
I went through a few bob trying to find this, but did in Chapters, back when it was on Abbey St and sold lots of CDs and Vinyl.

The best thing about Ridge Racer Type 4 was the opening movie, the game was very hard for me to love!

I remember hearing that track for the first time and spending weeks hunting through local record shops for it, one of them eventually found it and ordered it in for me. Still a cracking remix.0 -

Immediately thought of Omega Boost when I say the thread title and went to watch the intro, which in my head was class.
It eh.....it's definitely of it's era let's say. Probably cost a mental amount of money too.0 -
