:dead:@this and the composer turning out to be a fraud (who would've guessed?!)

Resident Evil and Onimusha composer exposed as a fraud

Resident Evil and Onimusha composer Mamoru Samuragochi has admitted hiring someone else to write his music for nearly two decades, according to the Japan Times.

The 50-year-old, dubbed the "Japanese Beethoven", lost his hearing completely at the age of 35 but continued to work using what he calls his "absolute pitch". In Japan he is most famous for Hiroshima Symphony No 1, which he dedicated to those killed in the 1945 atomic blast, but gamers know him best for his work on Capcom's Resident Evil and Onimusha.

According to Samuragochi's promotional website, he composed the music for 1997's Resident Evil: The Director's Cut, called Biohazard in Japan, while hiding "his severe hearing disability and living under harsh conditions".

Then in 1999, just before he started composing the music for 2001's Onimusha: Warlords, he completely lost his hearing, he said. "However the piece he composed, Symphony, Rising Sun, was highly acclaimed and was noticed by the public as a masterpiece," the promotional website claims.

Now, it turns out, Samuragochi paid for commissions while giving the ideas for his work to another mystery composer - despite describing himself as the "sole composer" over the years.

His solicitor apologised on behalf of his client, saying Samuragochi was "deeply sorry as he has betrayed fans and disappointed others".

"He knows he could not possibly make any excuse for what he has done. He is mentally distressed and not in a condition to properly express his own thoughts."

Samuragochi is quoted by Japanese broadcaster NHK as saying he first hired the mystery aid to compose music for him in 1996 "because the ear condition got worse".

So why come clean now? It appears the revelation emerged after NHK aired a documentary about Samuragochi last year in which he toured the tsunami-affected Tohoku region. NHK has now apologised for airing the film. "Through his lawyer, Mamoru Samuragochi confessed that he had asked another composer to create his iconic works," an NHK presenter said.

"NHK has reported on him in news and features programs but failed to realise that he had not composed the works himself, despite our research and checking."

Dude you on strike two. :ufdup: This and the FFX theme is flames...in a sense. You gotta give Doom a pass though, that's all the processing power for music they had back then....or atleast all they were willing to give up.:bryan: Never Played XIII but that Chocobo song sounds like straight up trash.:scusthov:

Surprised as fukk nobody ain't posted this shyt. This has to be the first and only fighting game I know that you'd get thumped for taking more than 15 seconds to select your character. Ain't nobody wanted to hear this annoying shyt.


Chances are you either didn't grow up in the PSX era where Parappa was king or you slept on it (Played ya self B, If you did.) but this game was just:ohlawd:. Chop Chop Master Onion's first stage rap. That Queen Latifah sounding Moose chick on the second stage. Remember when we hit the 3rd stage with Prince FleaSwallow and thought Shaggy lent his voice to the game:gladbron:. Heck even the Julia Childs Chicken rap stage wasn't bad.....don't get me started on that Bathroom stage...especially when you hit Awful and that rolling bassline comes in.:banderas:
....then they ended it with this shyt stage..and this shyt song. To this day I haven't played this stage in over 10 years, I hate it so much. Game would have been a strong 10 in my book had it not had this.
