Nerd alert!

Sorry for those of you expecting a real post. I just wanted to get one thing off my mind for now. I doubt this is going to help with that! This is about a video game, and the usage of music in it. If that's not your thing, I'm sorry.

With all the Metal Gear Solid 4 hype going on, I just have to vent about MGS3, its excellent predecessor. Not about the game, but about the theme song called 'Snake Eater'. I seem to be one of the very, very few who recognized a James Bond intro theme song in there. Googling it, I found that more people drew the James Bond comparison to the game itself rather than the music.

Just watch and listen to the intro movie and imagine you're watching the newest Bond movie which is 'Snake Eater'. It does everything a bond intro movie needs to do. What with the silhouettes, dramatic brass music, singing woman backed by a jazzy orchestra and psychedelic background images, all the while showing images suggesting the possibility of things you're still going to experience during the game itself. The only comment on this I could find on the first two Google result pages tells us that the video is "James Bond-like". It's not James Bond-like; it IS James Bond, only with a Metal Gear theme. It even has that final chord!

Why is there noone drawing this comparison?

These are the things that keep me up. They really do.

Edit: on the Youtube page, there's actually a comment from someone who totally gets it. User Briannefarious07 says it like it is: "Nice song but Hideo [game director] is so gonna get sued by 007 for stealing his song."

Ik dacht toch dat iedere mongool dat wel begrepen had, gezien het echt 100% fokking obvious is.

Ik denk dat niemand de vergelijking maakt omdat het ZO duidelijk is dat je het niet hoeft te vermelden ;)



Heb je MGS4 al trouwens?

ERG aan te raden als je zo'n fan van deel 1 bent als jij.

Gezien het internet nogal heel goed is in 'stating the obvious' had ik verwacht om het meer terug te zien. Maar niemand die er iets over zegt in de reviews.



MGS4 nog niet in da house. Eerst een PS3... maar die dingen zijn nog zo duur hier. Misschien als ik m'n 360 kan verkopen dat ik dan aan de PS3 ga. Ik zit wel iedere avond de eerste 15-20 minuten van MGS4 te bekijken. Kan er geen genoeg van krijgen.

Ja, ik heb er ook alleen maar 1 gekocht omdat ik 'm toevallig tweedehands zag liggen voor 3 man of zo.



Enneh, het spreekt voor zich natuurlijk, maar die eerste 20 minuten zijn NIKS vergeleken bij de rest ;)

Nou, ook die eerste 20 minuten zijn toch best wel mooi hoor. Heb nu ook een PS3 met MGS4, en het is ongelofelijk hoe ze die kwaliteit hooghouden.
