Music in games that sound similar

[Kairi Irving]

I remember coming across a comment on YouTube that said these two themes sound alike.... I ve grown up playing both these games and i didn't realize it until that comment

Shyt had me


Ever since.







Anyone else ever heard an oddly familiar tune in a game before?

The forest theme in Breath of Fire 3



Sounds like the forest theme in Chrono Trigger.

 

[TransJenner]

On cartoonnetwork.com they had a DBZ game with these song as theme


Sound familiar ?

 

[Amor fati]

I always thought these themes had a similar guitar riff at the beginning of each theme.

The House of the Dead


Tekken 3


Driver 2

 

[Amor fati]

They both literally sound the same only difference is Jetzons sounds clearer than the other.

Besides Sephiroth's "one winged angel"?

Third Strike soundtrack is still lit.

This thing right here, is letting all the lady's know what guys talk about. You know, the finer things in life.

Speaking of DBZ and plagiarism this song from Budokai 3 sounds really familiar.

LOL When I first played CVS2 I thought that Lei was gonna be a secret character in the game when I heard this theme.


Edit: The original Guitar riff originates from a Sega AM1 game in 1994 I bet this was composed by the member of the sampling masters. This Guitar riff was also sampled by a pop band in 1995 by East 17

Ones that replicate songs instead of being original
