Music Discussion Thread - Aaaand... the music sucks. See you next game, folks!

Heh, maybe true that it wasn’t that fitting for him, I just did like quite a bit of it. Still can’t beat his Msh and Msh vs SF themes though.

I’ll say this about MVC3’s soundtrack: it did a great job when it came to most of the original themes (Dormammu, MODOK, etc.) and really nailed the themes for certain franchises (the Ghosts n’ Goblins reps both had amazing ones, as well as the Resident Evil characters aside from maybe Jill). Part of what made those themes good in my eyes is that they had one or two gimmicky sounds that added to the aura of the character. The GnG themes both had bells and heavy rock, the RE themes had those low ominous bass tones, MODOK’s had a bunch of gizmo noises, etc. That shit is what gets me hype about a character, even ones I don’t play or like. We NEED that in full force this time.

Sucks that they used Hideyuki Fukusawa yet again and dude ruined most of the soundtrack just like he did with SFIV

I hope he doesn’t even touch MVCI

The one I left in the quote, or this one:

I too, loved Wolverine’s MSHvSF theme. I remember when MvC1 came out I was looking forward to hearing it, but they changed it :sad

Do you guys not like the UMvC3 OST? Outside of a few themes (Storm, Viper & Trish), I fucking love it.

UMvC3 ost is hit or miss for me. I hated the remix themes for most of the returning characters. Doom and Mags were the best ones. The original themes were alright.

I loved Doom’s remix. Magneto’s would have been great if not for the Stephen Hawking bits.

I agree, though, that it’s a pretty hit or miss OST. Most of the songs with any form of vocals didn’t go over well for me.

Some of the original themes really sold me. I love Taskmaster’s theme (someone online said it’s meta, it sounds heroic because he probably stole an Avenger’s theme) and Modok’s is too much fun. I love the credits reprise and the intro themes for MvC3 vanilla and UMVC3.

Would love to see classic MvC2 stages like the clock tower, bridge, cave, outrageous clown.

WTF was this shit? They better not try to make movie music again. Real Melodies people can remember please!

What I could really go for are some SF:EX-type themes. Clear melodies, changes in pace, and they actually had an end (imo songs designed to repeat every minute will have less substance by default). I want songs I would listen to outside the game.

Was Captain Commando’s MvC theme actually from his game? I’m hoping if he comes back, that theme will too but he had a completely different theme in Project X Zone 2.

So basically how ArcSystem Works approaches their soundtracks - full-length songs

Yes. I still listen to Bullet Dance from time to time so I can type faster.

And I’d rather see you get launched from a cannon into a brick wall but that’s sadly not happening

I think he’d make a great stance character; something the series could use! Rebellion Stance, Angel Stance, Demon Stance – It’d be fun.

Don’t worry, though. There was enough backlash from all the nostalgia loving manchildren when DmC released that Capcom decided to totally forget that it was even a thing. It’s a shame, really, but I guess it’s a good thing I like both Dantes.

New Dante…is…not so great.

I think SFV soundtrack was done very well aside from Juri, hopefully they can do similarly good work on the MVCI soundtrack.

Except the original Dante already has all those things. So you’re basically asking for the original Dante.
