My favorite will always be the creepy, dark and hellish Aubrey Hodges soundtrack for the Playstation version of Ultimate Doom. The track for Mt. Erebus with the moaning and the babies crying really made me feel like I was in Hell. I consider myself very fortunate to have found a complete WAD version of that soundtrack so I can still listen to it while I'm playing with GZDoom.
It's funny you mention Aubrey Hodges, as he also composed the chilling soundtrack to Doom 64. I've always preferred his dark ambient compositions, and if anyone is interested, this site contains mp3s of most of the music featured in Doom, Doom 2, Final Doom, and Doom 64. :D

Welcome the insane asylum, ladies and gentlefreaks! Mwahahahahaha... :devil:
Mental instability is the root of chaos because of unpredictability, chaos leads to unrest and inevitable terror. Evil is purely destructive, always predictable, as it only seeks one thing only - complete annihilation/dominance/whatever evil's goal is. Chaos has no real goal, except be cause more chaos.
As to the beginning and end of one sphere and the other, there is no definitive answer. Chaos can be evil, and vice versa. It depends on the circumstances under which evil and chaos manifest themselves.

Who hasn't been through their share of heartbreak? As someone who isn't afraid toexpress how they feel, rather than shutting themselves in, I've learned that expression through poetry/songwriting can help deal with deep-rooted emotions that somehow were buried in the nucleus of my heart. There's no need for thanks, I write for everyone. :)

I wanted so much more.
I am left in darkness alone,
Abandoned,
My body used and cast aside,
Hot and wet.
I yearned for love and passion,
Received passion to my fill,
'Til achingly I could bear no more,
Yet I thirst for love still.
Lying in the wake of expectations
Unfulfilled,
Tears dampen my still-hot cheeks,
For I am alone again.
I wanted so much more.
This is outstanding work - I must say this is far better than most poetry I've read so far. You're a true artist, and I applaud you for your talents. *****

The Cold Embrace of Heartache
Here in the passing moonlight
Casting dancing shadows
Caressing us in soft pale light
You left me cold and alone
Once loved, and twice betrayed
Nevermore shall this heart break
Into these arms I fall
The cold embrace of heartache
What once was lost shall be found
No more to tread this road
All I've ever felt and known
In my cold heart of stone
Once loved, and twice betrayed
Nevermore shall this heart break
Into these arms I fall
The cold embrace of heartache
Time has come and gone again
The fear of being whole
Weathered by this deep-rooted pain
Of my curse and dreaded sorrow
Once loved, and twice betrayed
Nevermore shall this heart break
Into these arms I crawl
The cold embrace of heartache...

I know there are already a couple of threads going about Doom, but I have to mention it as it deserves attention here as well. The first time I played it was on the Super Nintendo when I was too young to even think about owning a PC. The graphics were crap compared to versions I would see later, but I instantly fell in love with the style of gameplay (I'd never seen a FPS before). On that platform there was no way to save your progress, the only way to complete the game was to leave it on and keep playing, so one night after Christmas I locked myself in my room with some junk food and stayed up until dawn beating each chapter. It was great.
Hehe, that sounds like fun XD I remember when I first seen an article about Doom for the Atari Jaguar. And when I seen it was also for the SNES, I was like "OMGWTFBBQ!!" I agree it's not the same as on the PC, but it opened the doors to FPS gaming for me. Since then I've been a fan of the genre, and always look forward to upcoming awesome FPS titles.
Speaking of staying up late, I remember when I first stayed up past 3 am playing video games. I was 8 or 9 and I had rented the game Super Adventure Island - I was fond of the games that were on the NES, and this game was pretty good. I forgot about time that night, but I'll always have good memories ^^

Oops, sorry... Well, hello Gizzie :D I hope you enjoy yourself and be a good little... Gah, who am I kidding, be as mischief as you want, we don't mind :teehee:

The original NES - mine still works for some odd reason :P

F-Zero X - I wish they would remake the music from this awesome racing game.

Arena was the very first Elder Scrolls game, and I'm ashamed to say I haven't played anything before Morrowind... :(
Linkage for them both: HereMuch thanks for that. I never got the chance to play the first two and could not find them anywhere. So naturally my next question is: do they have TES I somewhere too?
As far as I know "TES I" is "THE ELDER SCROLLS: ARENA" & that is available in the link in the quote
@calliton
This thread was the one that helped me get the game to work for me >Alternative Daggerfall install instructions (beth's official forums)<
Oops! I didn't know that was the full title of it. For some reason I thought the Arena was some kind of multiplayer online thing. Thank you for setting me straight! I'm trying to install & play these right now...
Do you know how to use DOS Box? o_O I'm pretty capable of digging out files from my HD, but I have no clue how to use DOS...

Welcome to TesNexus. We are always happy to welcome new players.
***With a jealous tilt of her head and an indignant snort, she put her hands on her wide hips before speaking***
You never welcomed ME to the Nexus, bben46!
o_O Well hot damn - it's a shame, how could anyone NOT welcome one such as yourself Herc? *shrugs and bows*

Well howdy pardner! Long time no see Storm :)

As an old school gamer myself, sometimes it's always a great stress reliever to sit down and blast the bejesus out of everything in sight with a BFG :PFor me Doom 3 was a let down.For me as well. The new graphics were okay, but I was expecting to play Doom, not to watch a CG Movie. It's for this same reason that I finally gave up on the Final Fantasy games. I like to play video games, not watch them.
I do fancy my hi-def graphics however, but if the story is sh*t then no way will I play the game. Like I always say, a great game is one that can be played and one never tires of it.

I suppose now this becomes an issue of what the balance is between freedom and censorship is. Then it becomes that much more difficult to resolve the first issue (that being the apparent "stupidity" of Americans and people in general). There's no easy way to resolve these matters - I myself wouldn't be able to tell you what's right and wrong, as everyone has their own opinions and values that matter to them.... So one step in the solution to our international opinion problems would be to modify what the media says about us. But that course of action obviously would involve government controlled censorship, sparking issues concerning our rights to freedom of speech. -
Americans aren't stupid, they just happen to want everything when they know they can't. I realize I've painted my fellow American peers as "spoiled little brats", but that's not what the intent is. The appearance of stupidity is simply an amalgamation of the very moral code that points young Americans down a rather bigoted path. It's not a question of "Are Americans Stupid?" It's an issue about how they are being raised..
Agreed. But with the media around telling people here "what you need", or "what is good" etc, influences these behaviors greatly. Many people here watch television for countless hours a week, and over a quarter or more of that time they are bombarded with ads and media and often biased news. If you listen to that even ten hours a week for ten years, that will take a toll on what you see things as, what is good, what is not, etc. That is one of the greatest causes of our misguidance.
And if this is the largest root of the problem, how can it be resolved? Or at least minimized so it isn't the biggest influence on people.

Here here! *raises tankard* What I've seen so far is excellent work, keep it all up! :thumbsup:

As much as I don;t like saying offensive things about others, I agree with you. It's not only Americans who are self-centred - Canada is also to an extent. Being as how both our countries are as close as we are, one assuredly will influence the other. With the influx of American media in Canada, we too follow the same path. It's a sad reality about our nations, one that I think we both wish wasn't true.

Pretentious bigot...? *prepares to be hit* /).(\

The reason behind the whininess stems from an "I-ALWAYS-win-you-ALWAYS-lose" mentality of many, not all, young Americans. It's a simple perversion of the so-called "American Dream" - they somehow are raised, not only by their parents but other influences (namely the media), with the concept that you have to have the biggest car in your garage, the prettiest wife to "do it" with, and the largest amount of money to waste on petty nothing.
Remember what Michael Douglas' character in "Wall Street" said? "Greed is GOOD." My point? That because every factor that affects moral values in the US is geared toward being "big spenders", this raises another issue - do Americans appear "stupid" simply because they're moral compass is jacked all over the place?
Americans aren't stupid, they just happen to want everything when they know they can't. I realize I've painted my fellow American peers as "spoiled little brats", but that's not what the intent is. The appearance of stupidity is simply an amalgamation of the very moral code that points young Americans down a rather bigoted path. It's not a question of "Are Americans Stupid?" It's an issue about how they are being raised.
I believe America wants change however - Obama is a prime example of that. Now this raises another issue about the current presidency in the US, but keep this thread on track please. All I will say is people either love him to death or hate him with a burning passion. Like Elmo :D
Anyway, I don't think Americans are stupid, just misguided.

Morrowind is still popular believe it or not - you can always tell a game is great when people play it regardless of how old it is. I haven't played it since I got my new computer, and I've been playing Oblivion a lot too, but maybe once I've decided to move all my old Morrowind files over to the new comp, I'll start playing it once again. Until then, I'll watch on :unsure:
