That's right. I was hoping someone might guess Hit the Road, since the two themes are so similar.

Tex Murphy: Overseer - Tex Meets Sylvia

That's right!


And both guesses for #10 are wrong. (By the way, all the games I used had a commercial release; so no TSL.)

Bummer. I really thought I had it there. The music sounds so familiar and I know I played that game but for the life of me I can't remember what it's from. Hopefully someone guesses it quick enough so I don't have to wreck my brain any further.

[diego]

#19 sounds like it could be from

Spoiler:

Love for Sail, possibly while Larry is about to "seduce" someone. I'll find the exact location if i'm right.

#23

Spoiler:

If that means it's a Microprose adventure, i'm gonna go with Dragonsphere. Btw, Kevin Manthei who's credited here has also worked on King's Quest 8 along with Mark Seibert but it's too cheerful for KQ8

[Kurufinwe]

Diego: both guesses are wrong, both are pretty close.

[gray pierce]

I Know!!!!!!!! (or at least think I do)

10 is

Spoiler:

Heavy Rain!

[Kurufinwe]

You're so enthusiastic about it that I hate myself for telling you that you're wrong again. :/ It is a fairly recent game, though.

Oops! I guessed it because the pianotune reminded me of the Heavy Rain soundtrack but I guess I was mistaken. I just thought it made sense because I never played the game(only watched the video walkthrough)

Then again hearing that music makes me feel all warm inside and I didn't really like Heavy Rain THAT much.

I'll come up with something else soon

[Shany]

Wild guess at 10

Spoiler:

Syberia 2

EDIT:
Or maybe

Spoiler:

Trace Memory

[Kurufinwe]

Neither of those, sorry. (And it's more recent than those two.)

[Shany]

Alright. Then I have no idea.

I think 22 may be either

Spoiler:

Conquests of Camelot or Conquests of the Longbow

[gray pierce]

Join the club! I'm starting to think I didn't play this game at all and am confusing the theme with another soundtrack.

It's neither. The game is more obscure than that.

That's happened to me several times in this thread!

[Shany]

Finally something:
28

Spoiler:

The Colonel's Bequest - The Drunk

EDIT:
Whoo, another:
21

Spoiler:

Time Hollow - Somebody is Looking

Which means only one more DS game, right?

[Kurufinwe]

Both right! And yes, there's still one DS game.

And Shany's now in the lead! Can anyone catch up?

Final hints:
01. Here's our last DS game.
10. Did I fall asleep?
12. Here's how the tune sounds in-game.
15. French game.
19. Diego was very close.
22. French game.
23. Diego was very close.
25. French game. (Do I sound like a broken record? )

[diego]

Ok, second try:

#19

Spoiler:

If i've been "close" it's probably Larry - but if i've been VERY CLOSE is it Larry 6?

#23

Spoiler:

Ok, this could mean two things - either it's another Microprose adventure, or another with Kevin Manthei/Roland J. Rizzo's music. I'm gonna go with the latter since it's too cheerful for Return of the Phantom or BloodNet, although Rex Nebular might suit in. I can see Kevin has been composer of Nancy Drew games but i'm not gonna take my chances with only one of the bunch So against all odds, i'm sticking with KQ8 although i'm gonna be very mad if that's it and you hadn't approved my guess for it earlier

Care to guess a location?

Not KQ8.

[Kurufinwe]

And that is right.

[gray pierce]

C'mon Kurufinwe, gove us more hints! Obviously nobody's gonna guess the remaining few based on the hints you gave so far and it'd be just lame if you had to tell us.

[Kurufinwe]

Time's up! I see no point in prolonging this and have people guess music from games they haven't played based solely on hints.

It's been an interesting one: lots and lots of good guesses at first, even of difficult ones, and then progress stalled when all that was left was music from games that the handful of people playing probably haven't played. Still, 23/30 is not a bad score, and the remaining ones were mostly lesser-known games. (But when will you people get a DS?!!!?)

#1 is Dahlia's theme from Ace Attorney 3. If any of you had played the game, you couldn't fail to remember it — and her.
#10 was from . . . (drum roll) . . . Gemini Rue! When Sayuri returns to Center 7. I'm sad that there was no Whedon fan around who got my hint.
#12 was from Torin's Passage, the love theme. Michel Legrand's original drafts can be found on Al Lowe's site.
#15 is the end cutscene from The Experiment (a similar theme also plays in the intro).
#22 plays in the Middle Ages in Future Wars.
#23 is the delightful Doctor Slache from Rex Nebular.
#25 is Maupiti Island's main theme (the Amiga version, because the AdLib version sounds terrible).

The end. Shany wins (as usual?) with 7 points, with Trunkyo (5 points) and diego (3 points) next.

And now we can go back to our usual programming and single tracks. Shany, the floor's yours.
