The House of the Dead OST - Theme of the Magician - Arcade Ver. (Actual Hardware)

[@mohidkhan6039]

Whenever I listen to this, I imagine myself as Rogan standing in front of Magician, ready to kill or get killed!

Finally an actual good rip of the arcade version's soundtrack. Love the saturn version and it's still my favorite of the two but the arcade soundtrack gets very close to it and still slaps.

[@ergastolo4281]

0:33 absolute *EARGASM* SO much different from the emulated version!

[@meowarts44]

Ears be like while listening to this song: Ears: This is not bad at all... (Deep inside): Goddamn it feels so good! XD

[@Jiterdomer]

Emulated: Too fast and low Hardware: Crispy and normal

[@VallenteDunn]

Original arcade version at 0:33 sounds arcade like, emulator version sounds more like squeaky pet toy being ravaged.

[@bimapradiga8853]

Emulation: Squeaked toy Actual Hardware: Organ Keyboard effects

[@thenightmare2495]

Man there's something about this specific version of the magician's theme that beats the other versions

[@ord3r781]

"Ok chances are no one is going to be able to hear this over the other arcade games, so don't try too hard, ok?" "Go crazy. Got it." "Wait-"

Greatest Final Boss In Light Gun Rail Shooters!

[@dayvonlouis5187]

And one of the most unfair ones

[@GreatGamerspheanx]

The best theme a boss named the "Magician" could ask for

[@JohnCarpenter-lx3xl]

I believe the Japanese auteur put this as a message meaning that “consciousness can be implanted into a robot, but cannot be a fact of resurrection.”

[@videogamemusicpianoforscru7600]

Thanks so much for recording this! Def a different sound than other stuff on YT. so pure!

[@NotaPizzaGRL]

Thank you whoever ripped this! It's great to hear an accurate recording after years of hearing weird emulated music.

[@ultimatehedghogshadow926]

finally! i love Magician theme in Arcade Hardware Version

[@pharmikukinetics]

the most noticeable changes for me in terms of sound between the emulator and actual hardware are present in revenge the house of the dead boss theme magician theme chapter clear on the other tracks the differences were negligible but on the mentioned ones you can really hear the changes. on revenge and magician theme the most iconic parts sound completely different. on the boss fight theme, chapter clear, and final stage music (eponymous), the changes are much more reserved but are still noticeable

[@meanwhileinjapan2265]

Great stuff this gets the heart pumping the long journey is about to end and one magician stands in the way.

[@VallenteDunn]

He did it ...... Someone actually did it! 12year old me would be buzzing.

[@tails_the_god]

Ok this sounds MOST accurate!

[@xsbaron8268]

Say hello to my masterpiece!

[@gonzalotorres5282]

Perfect for a Mod for PC Windows and Sega Saturn.

[@Apexzo106]

Modern Monster Hunter vs Myotismon: The Final Battle - Theme of the Magician from The House of the Dead

[@FreezinUrTundra]

This is perfect, just perfect. 👍

[@khaisinclair2798]

At last, the original Knight of AMS has ridden to the end of his journey, and encounters a creation gone wild, with the power to destroy the world... I hope your reloads are snappy, Rogan. Hopefully, G made it this far with you, because it's gonna take all you got! This has to end... here and now! Let's GOOOOO!!

[@JakeTheComicBookDude]

Finally found the original Arcade OST, still like the Sega Saturn version though.

[@user-fi2zs2ww1r]

nice bit of bookending with the attract theme and the magician's theme. both follow the same tune

[@rejecht_3042]

its a sick leimotif

[@fares_50]

cool music ❤❤❤❤

[@palpha0181]

If SEGA has a crossover game with their characters (aside of racing), the Magician would be the final boss

[@dnmstarsi]

I feel like he's more of a sub boss IMO.

[@therealanonymousartist]

Sega Superstars on Playstation 2

[@daoyang5988]

Tèa Gardner: New kid, You must be are only hope! New kid: ... Yugi: Not this time! He has a strong way to defeat the Magician! Tristan: Go! Man!

[@loboblanco7138]

amo esta rolita

[@arafatrahman366]

Masterpiece !!!

[@Alphablue-tp4xc]

I wonder how the Magician would work in other Zombie games like Resident Evil or Telltale Walking Dead.

[@GreatGamerspheanx]

The Magician would probably absolutley slaughter everyone in The Walking Dead without mercy, and Leon would probably fail the mission because Ashley died, or because he was massacred by the Magician.

[@jorge8108]

​@GreatGamerspheanx Leon has the fire power to take him down but the Magician is just crazy fast.

[@khaisinclair2798]

Walking Dead doesnt even stand a chance; no weapon of destruction in that Universe can compare to the supernatural and iconic superpower possessed only by the AMS Agents and those entities powerful enough to oppose them -- the mythic power of INFINITE AMMO... ... at least Resident Evil stands a chance! S.T.A.R.S. may not have infinite ammo, BUT they do have more firepower choices, and a sufficient enough combat record to stand tall against the Magician in a fight -- Wesker wasnt as fast as the Magician, and certainly didnt have the power to call Meteor Storms, but considering every challenge which S.T.A.R.S. has faced thus far... a superhuman lab experiment with untraceable speed, Meteor Storms, fireballs and VERY NOTICEABLE WEAKPOINTS... may very well fall against them. Definitely a struggle/crossover I'd like to see. AMS vs. Umbrella Corp? Turn that T-Virus Apocalypse into 1 little rendition of Time Crisis, but Umbrella aint stopping them... hands DOWN, Rogan bags the cure with minimal resistance, because Resident Evil crumbles when you cant restrict the ammunition you can carry...

[@anonymousdoomer2947]

What if, this Boss Fight, but YOU play as the Magician trying to kill Rogan/G

[@ikagura]

Could fit in a Doom wad.

[@frogeman6749]

I first heard this in Map 2 of Sunlust

[@Jiterdomer]

Arcade > Saturn

[@Blehstor]

why? saturn sounds better tbh

[@clarkg.]

Also the same sound hardware as the Sega Saturn (SCSP) But the Saturn version sounds different, is uses CD-DA audio instead of MIDI-PCM in the arcade (Model 2) version.

[@RobertStacker]

Would you be able to get HOTD2 tracks ripped like this?

[@RiasatSalminSami]

This is the best version of Magician's theme in my opinion. The instruments used on this one were simply better. The one on saturn and hod2 sounds similar but not that great.

[@Larserr]

nah, this one lacks power, specially in the main theme part

[@RiasatSalminSami]

@@Larserr To each their own. The guitar riff just feels very tame compared to the arcade instruments, even if the sound quality is worse on the arcade hardware. The sounds on the arcade feel like it was made with organ instrument like that of funerals and I personally love that.

[@Reniibooo]

Sega saturn sound like your fighting a Monster Arcade sound like your fighting a Robot

[@Desastre473]

[@Chrisverine]

The second game version of this theme is much better especially on original mode for me

[@GreatGamerspheanx]

That's because in HOTD2 the Magician's theme got the greatest buff, a rock guitar

[@Chrisverine]

@@GreatGamerspheanx I know

[@xero9987]

Can I put these arcade songs files to the M2 emulator?

[@sebastiann.8088]

But why would you want to do that?
