so I've spent all morning and most of last night watching and rocking out to Songs from the Sonic Adventure games o-o (Sonic Adventure through Shadow)

the music has to be the best friken part of those games... specially Crush 40 who steals the soundtrack on every game they play for, their music always having the perfect mood and setup for how the game is.

I'ma Crush 40 fanboy :3 ~hums "What I'm Made of"~

Sonic Team needs to remember why the Adventure game soundtrakcs are so popular on youtube and it's not because they are corny and fun, it's because Crush 40 took ideas that seemed stupid, threw badass music into it and made a peace of gold outa the corn.

Seriously who else could write two songs, one about Opening your hear to the world and another about living your life and learning from your mistakes, and make those songs into something so completely epic that you can't help but rock out!

and afterwards, taking the sonic game that has the most corn you could EVER imagine (of the time) and giving it the most... epicly badass soundtrack EVER.

Then ending it with a game that tried so hard to be "badass" and making it work completely with their music!

Name one band who could do what Crush 40 did? they held and entire game franchise on their back for YEARS doing the majority of the music and writing song after song each one in a different stile and with a different theme or message. Crush 40 is the under-rated band of this decade and I think.. no I HOPE they are used in some of the newest sonic games (after being phased out slowly over the years, rumors of their return to the franchise are rampant)
Even if the game is gimmicky like i complained about before, crush 40 would make it playable simply to rock out with the music, timing Sonic's movements with the song, and winning the Level EXACTLY as the song ends (a fun lil challenge I put on myself in a few sonic games)
