Checkered_Flagman Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 As I wrote in Raiden topic, I'd like to extend a discussion to a proper topic: the very common lack of music in Lynx games. What are the best BGM of Lynx hystory? I found cool the music of Rygar, California Games, Pac-Land and Zarlor Mercenary! But I think games like Super Skweek, S.T.U.N. Runner, Electrocp very disappointing... what do you think about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Laird Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Electrocop has excellent music and STUN Runner does too on the title screen and dosn't need in game music as it stays faithful to the arcade machine and works well. Apart from that my favourite Lynx in games tunes are: Poker Mania, Ninja Gaiden, Gates OF Zendocon, Zarlor Mercenary, Double Dragon, Pacland and XYBots which is wonderful.

Emehr Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Klax is the first game to spring to mind. Off the top of my head... Great intro tunes: Klax Warbirds Xybots STUN Runner Pinball Jam (kinda wacky but it's catchy) Great in-game music: Xybots Ninja Gaiden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
im_reg Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 The best ever music by far that I've heard on the Lynx is the finished game music at the end of Road Blasters. Truely amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Laird Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Agree about that, its wonderful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semicolo Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Toki sounds like the arcade game (well it's more lynxish of course, but the tunes are the same). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PFG 9000 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I made audio rips of Lynx soundtracks a few years back. I think I even posted them here, but there wasn't much interest. I think the Lynx has some brilliant music, although it's true that a lot of games have almost none. My favorites: Lemmings Shadow of the Beast Bill & Ted Alien vs Predator Scrapyard Dog I actually think Electrocop has some very good music. I can see how it would get repetitive after awhile though.

Could you post them again? I'm very interested! Anyway, I think Lynx has very good capacities but I don't know why they are used in a very bad way in many games that lack in BGM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedenLynxer Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Greatest Lynx intro tune(s) ever: Robotron 2084! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.golden.ax Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I actually searched google, and was led back to the 2007 thread. The links were dead, so I searched for a current thread before resurrecting and begging someone to post the mp3 files on rapidshare again. Here I find out that only a little less than a month ago, others were thinking the same thing. PLEASE! Post this again! AX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
