After trolling #ff for some more votes (it was tied 5/5, then ended up 7/8) Persona barely wins by 1.

Our next match up is:

Lufia 2: Sinistral battle theme

vs

Bayonetta OST - You May Call Me Father

Shiiiiit Sheeeeeit Shit Sheeeit - Senator Clay Davis, The Wire

I've devised a new system to settle this predicament: Watch each theme's associated boss fight (or most-associated boss fight) with the other music.

In this case Sinistral Battle wins, but just barely. It basically comes down to YMCaMF being a little too bombastic for something as deliberate as a 16-bit JRPG, whereas the Sinistral Theme translates pretty much perfectly to an action game and even syncs up a little bit.

Shame, too. Hearing Young Men's Christian Mother Fuckers is pretty much what prompted me to buy Bayonetta, the only DMC clone besides DMC1 that I can say I legitimately like.

With less than an hour to go, Sinistral leads 9-3.

Next match:

Suikoden II OST - The Chase ~ Battle against Luca

vs

Gitaroo Man OST - Born to be Bone

Roger · « **Reply #164 on:** April 19, 2012, 04:57:53 PM »

It almost feels wrong to vote for Born to Be Bone. It's such a unique song compared to anything it's against.

Friday · « **Reply #165 on:** April 19, 2012, 05:17:49 PM »

Born to be Bone slaughters The Chase, 8-1.

Our final match of ro2 is:

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest - Final Boss / Top 10 SNES Music - 5

vs

#9 - The Oracle (Dark Lich) - Secret of Mana

So, the weaker of the MQ tracks (the stronger having already lost to Pokey, which itself lost to Persona) should now win this match up and then go on to beat Persona, so the cycle can be complete.

Alternatively, Lyrai will post MANA in such huge letters that it sends everyone into a coma.

Oracle 8-4 over MQ. Moving on to ro3:

Sinistral Theme
***Battle with Gilgamesh
~~Secret of Mana "Oracle"~~
~~Final Fantasy 6: Dancing Mad~~
***CT: Magus' Theme
Persona 3 - The Battle for Everyone's Souls
***Gitaroo Man - Born to be Bone
~~Shadow of the Colossus - The Opened Way~~

Our first match (by random determination) is:

Magus' Theme

vs

Shadow of the Colossus OST, T08: The Opened Way ~Battle with the Colossus~

Getting down to the wire, now. Only 7 matches left, including this one. We've got 8 very strong contenders for the throne, but only 1 can sit down.

welp I've completely lost interest in this contest.

Büge · « **Reply #170 on:** April 20, 2012, 07:34:22 PM »

Magus is gonna ride this contest to the end.

Friday · « **Reply #171 on:** April 21, 2012, 12:05:28 AM »

Magus is 9-3 currently over Opened Way, but since we're down to the last match ups, I won't be advancing the rounds unless something gets a really huge lead.

With Magus 10-3 over Opened Way, we move on to our next match.

Some quick facts (since I forgot them when ro3 started)

6 stronglist left, 2 write ins (1 now with Opened Way eliminated)
4 songs are tracks from titles by Square
all tracks left as of now are RPGs except BtbB

Our next match is:

#9 - The Oracle (Dark Lich) - Secret of Mana

vs

Gitaroo Man OST - Born to be Bone

uh oh. Perhaps this match was destined.

Büge · « **Reply #174 on:** April 21, 2012, 06:36:41 PM »

Is that a typical track from Gitaroo Man? :0

Esperath · « **Reply #175 on:** April 21, 2012, 07:09:22 PM »

The game is basically a string of guitar duels, where U-1 battles with a guitar of some type, and the opponent fights with some other instrument. Each stage has a very different style generally based on the enemy boss's weapon.

and the music is totally 5 stars would buy again a++ seller

LaserBeing · « **Reply #176 on:** April 22, 2012, 11:07:10 AM »

It almost feels like cheating to even have Gitaroo Man in the contest. I mean, it is an actual music game

Kayma · « **Reply #177 on:** April 22, 2012, 11:37:29 AM »

I'm one of two Oracle votes, but I have to say, Born to be Bone is really, really good.

Friday · « **Reply #178 on:** April 23, 2012, 03:34:31 AM »

BtbB 8-4 over Oracle. Somewhere, Lyrai sobs uncontrollably.

Uh oh. The two FF Titans go head to head next.

Classic VGM 278: Final Fantasy VI - Dancing Mad (Full Song)

vs

Best VGM 127 - Final Fantasy V - Battle with Gilgamesh (Clash on the Big Bridge)

Niku · « **Reply #179 on:** April 23, 2012, 03:37:23 AM »

Sorry, Big Bridge. I just happen to think you're good, but kinda overrated.
