This song just expresses "the end of the game is near" so well. Plus, having to hear it for 30+ minutes while you traverse the long, final treacherous obstacles before Specter, in space! This game is definitely and forever will be gold in the archives.

Holy words. It feels like "the Odyssey is coming to an end". Spike, the hero, is approching the main antagonist, and this song as you said expresses that magical feel of a very long joureny from prehistoric times from the first lvele, especially with the fact you must hear it because the level is hard and tests all your abilities you learned from the beginning.

The most controller throwing inducing part of the entire game. I remember getting so upset about not being able to do the massive gauntlet climb after so many tries. Something interesting. During the gauntlet climb section where this music is playing (you have to jump over the three rotating disks, with the spinning chain ball, climb the retracting stairs, and move the platform with the RC Car), if you use the slingshot glitch to get super high, you can see a section of a previous area, as it's used for the camera shot where the painting opens.

These games were projected in a time where many people never played videogames, included us born in early 90's. At that time everything concerning videogames world, especially the first real masterpieces of ps1, were perceived in a different concept of space time and brain perception, and much more if you was a child, like many here. The true essence of millennial generation.

Sony: "We noticed that the game is a little bit too 'cutesy'. You see, most games on the modern Playstation consoles are at least M...or at least, the ones that are actually successful. That is why we want to make all the characters look as realistic as possible. Also, we would like more blood and gore effects. Gotta make the game hip for the new players, if you know what I mean." SCE: "Those are terrible ideas." Sony: "Fine then, there shall be no Ape Escape 4 on the PS4. Furthermore, we shall nerf Spike in SPASBR...again." SCE: "You know what? We don't care! We're just going to make a spiritual successor as an indie game! SCE out, PEACE! *as rep leaves* Can somebody sign me up for a Kickstarter account?"
