Koray Savas 2,255 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 O.K. The guy deserves his own. He's the next Giacchino, who is the next John Williams. So basically HE IS John Williams.I just actually really want to know what's going on with the Mercenaries 2 score. It's not up on iTunes yet.

Indiana_Fett 0 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 I love the Mercenaries score. I'm just trying to determine who wrote which themes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,255 Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 According to my CD, Giacchino wrote the main theme, while everything else was Tilton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,047 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 I listened to it a few moments ago. It is a great soundtrack. I really like the cue "I Barely Know Her!".

fommes 159 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Listening to The Jumper now, so far so good!And I have fond memories of the first Mercenaries score.It's the only one I ever won in a contest.It's not often in my player though, for no reason in particular (perhaps because I don't listen all that often to the few video game scores I have). I should give it another chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,255 Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 I sent an e-mail to Chris's site asking if they could post up high res artwork for the scores they have available for download. I mean, Shrek Super Party, Muppets: Party Cruise, and Alias: The Game all have high res artwork available for download, why not the other scores?The ones I particularly want are for The Sunday Man, Jumper: Griffin's Story, and La Lune.Chris - You have the artwork right there in the tiny box, just make it bigger!

Koray Savas 2,255 Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 I listened to both Mercenaries: Playground Of Destruction and Mercenaries 2: World In Flames. Chris, you've done a great job on these. I really liked World In Flames, more so than the first. The guitar was a nice touch and it felt more epic and action-filled to me.The Main Theme, Solano's Villa, Streets Of Venezuela, Taking Out The Rig, Jungle Brawl, Grotto Del Guerilla, and the End Credits are the highlights for me. Man, those End Credits kick ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koray Savas 2,255 Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 A quick google search leads me to believe it's a representation group. They manage artists and handle publishing and records. Here is a link to their store where you can buy Mercenaries 2. I like that you can get it in mp3 or FLAC. I personally prefer mp3, but it's nice to know they give options to those who really care. I bought mine from Amazon for a nice $8.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Parker 3,047 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Very tempting. Hm, "Mercenaries II: World In Flames", or my school lunch for the week? Ah, my stomach will adjust. I am getting the former. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koray Savas 2,255 Posted November 24, 2008 Author Share Posted November 24, 2008 Okay, so I tried contacting LucasArts to get them to release the Fracture score, but they don't have an e-mail address! What's up with that? I need this score! It's obviously out there for people to review, and to give samples. Why not just release the damn thing?!EDIT: Woops, never mind. I found this little bit from an interview with Jesse Harlin:CC: Will there be an official soundtrack release?Jesse Harlin: It’s in the works. We’re working right now on establishing a means of digital distribution for the soundtrack, but nothing has been finalized yet. I’m trying to do everything I can to ensure that it gets out there, though. Michael, Chad, and Chris have written a great score and I want the fans to be able to hear it and enjoy it.Bring it on!

Nick Parker 3,047 Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Well, I just played "Mercenaries II: World in Flames", thusly hearing the score. I did not get far at all, as the game froze up on me (every time I tried playing it), so I am not sure if I can really comment on the score, but ah well. I really like the Spanish flair to some of the pieces, Chris, though there were a few odds and ends, so to speak, that I cannot say that I really enjoyed. That opinion may or may not change if I can manage to get anywhere farther in the game. Blockbuster and I do not seem to get along well....

Nick Parker 3,047 Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Does Blockbuster allow you to trade a defective Disk for a better one, if they have another copy?
