I was playing this Capcom game today called LED Storm (also known as Mad Gear. No, it doesn\'t have anything to do with Final Fight) on MAME, and I had played the game before today, but I did not notice this until now! The music was done by Ogeretsu Kun, and he was one of the composers for Mega Man 2, and I\'ve noticed that the music on Stage 2 sounds STRIKINGLY similar to the first two stages of Dr. Wily\'s fortress in Mega Man 2, and the music on Stage 6 sounds similar to Crash Man\'s music. There might be other tunes in the game that sound similar to MM tunes, but I think this probably makes it clear that Ogeretsu Kun was probably the main composer for Mega Man 2, and Manami Ietel and Yuukichan\'s Papa (aka Yoshihiro Sakaguchi) were just secondary composers on this one. Play this game yourself, and see what I mean. You can download this game for MAME. Mad Gear (US) is the parent ROM set, you need this set to run LED Storm (US) or Mad Gear (Japan).

Off topic:BTW:The announcer cracks me up in this game for some reason, especially when you run out of fuel, when he says \"I\'m sorry, but we\'ve run out of energy!\" That\'s comic gold right there.

Post redacted

Yeah, I know alot about the composers behind the many Capcom games we all know and love. I even know the real names of some of them. The only other game I know of that Ogeretsu Kun\'s worked on besides MM2 and LED Storm is that arcade game based on the movie \"Willow\". It\'s that one with Val Kilmer.

Well...capcom aboslultely LOVES throwing in cameos of other games...so I\'m really not all that surprised...but then again...why should I be?

...but MM music in another unrelated MM games...is interesting...

Well, it\'s not MM music, but it sounds VERY similar. You need to play the game to see what I mean.

Really?

CoA is really stupid, so I couldn\'t say I love their games (Just a couple... )...

They don\'t always mess up Zera, there was that one time...you know...that...time...when...they didn\'t...mess...up...Fine! So they always mess up. Meanie

It\'d be a lot better if there was just CoJ and they made the games SEPARATE to CoA. Then, CoA make EXACT translation leaving it mean the same (so it\'s perfect English). CoJ then do the EXACT same as CoA but the other way around. THAT would be a HELL of a lot better.

Well, I got to Stage 7 in LED Storm today, and the music sounded VERY VERY similar to Heat Man\'s music in MM2!

You need to play the game for yourself so you can see what I\'m talking about.

Yeah, Make sure you send that into Megaman Homepage. I will play the game to check it out.

I can email you the ROM sets when I get home, because I\'m at school right now, and I can\'t tell anyone where to get ROMs anyway, so that is the only way I can get them to you.

Eh, It\'s okay. If I want them I will find them.

Okay, if you say so.

I do, I say so right now.

Also, There is a song by REM that supposebly rips off Elecmans theme.

Elec Man\'s music sounds like the main piano riff in \"Faithfully\" by Journey.

Eh, I should download it.

Do that.

Now that i have noticed it,
Cutman\'s stage does sound funny:lol:.
