If you had to pick an Amiga-song for your funeral..

oRBIT · 21 June 2022, 13:32

.. which one would it be? From an Amiga-game/demo.

One strong candidate for me would be the intromusic for "The Great Giana Sisters".

Our friend Chain, who was also EAB member, died 3 years ago and the song we have let be played for his funeral, was FREEDOM, the outro song from Turrican II.

The same song, in arrangement (from time 7:22) was used for a funeral of a local gaming legend Lukas Ladra 7 years earlier, together with Wizball and Everquest

Freedom is an awesome choice, but it's a little too melancholic for my taste (kind of strange actually for a victory tune now that I think about it). If I'd want music played at my funeral, it needs to be a little more upbeat.

I don't think any Amiga tune would really fit the bill that I know of. The upbeat tunes tend to be way too gamey.

Daxx's Platoon/Tunnel Remix.

Good topic, some great choices here. Definitely Monkey Island theme for me.

kremiso · 22 June 2022, 01:24

a lot of cool sad tunes on the miggy to choose from
maybe this :

The Plague - high score

or :

Onslaught - high score

trixster · 22 June 2022, 10:11

Boot Hill / Narcissus from Cannon Fodder would be on my shortlist

acidbottle · 22 June 2022, 10:31

A bit depressing

Nevertheless, I will join in with the Lost Patrol theme.
