Game music of the day: Link's Awakening
Sure don't! But unless you invented the idea of sharing music, I'm going to bet someone else did it before you. It's not an original idea by any means, not even yours.

BTW - if the embedded player isn't loading, it's because you don't have QuickTime. That come up for anyone else?

Good news: the author's Irish himself! And not the pretend kind, either!

Game music of the day: Donkey Kong Country 2
Writing one game music article a day is no sweat considering I've been amassing a collection since third grade. Look at it as a chance to catch some interesting tunes you'd otherwise miss.

As for the multiple posts a day, there's still a "normal" feature every day, plus these smaller posts to make the site move along throughout the afternoon. No more sitting around waiting for the homepage to change once a day. Personally I love it. But I share your sentiment - the features are our strength, and we definitely know won't stop them.

Perfect Dark: N64 vs Xbox 360
The audio in the first comp video is all from the N64 version. From what I've played on XBLA, the voices are the same and the music sounds very close. Possibly enhanced versions of the original OST.

Final Fantasy XIII (PS3): Potentially major Final Fantasy XIII freezing issue emerges
I haven't had an all out crash on my 360 copy, but I've had more than a few telltale signs that it's about to.

Following battles and cinema transitions, I'll get a momentary freeze, or that loud sound of the disc struggling to read... It's truly terrifying each and every time! I don't consider it a sign of "Will FFXIII crash?" but rather "Oh god, WHEN will FFXIII crash?" SAVE OFTEN!

10 face-kicking songs that better be in Green Day Rock Band
@zigs

I'm no drummer, so I can't speak on that level, but as someone who's played a crapton of RB drums I feel it'll be a total blast to play. Brain Stew is one of their slower songs so it's definitely not indicative of a typical track. I agree there's a lot of overlap when it comes to GD's drums, but it'll still be a challenge to get through on harder settings.

I mainly wanted to stress how different this band-specific Rock Band entry will be compared to Beatles. As a "drummer," I couldn't stand Beatles due to its nearly nonexistent drum charts. This time there'll be tons of pedal and lots of movement around the pads.

But I do appreciate the feedback, especially when it's that coherent and to-the-point.

I don't understand why so many people are hating on Hakan. I think he's a great addition to the roster. Everyone was hating on Rufus when he was introduced in SF4, and look what happened: he turned out to be one of the best characters in the game. Hakan is so unique and looks so fun to play. Also, that ultra trap is gonna be a bitch.
