Chris-in-NJ Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Just got Vanguard from CPUWIZ and have noticed a few things... Doesn't the opening music contain a part that sounds remarkably similar to the opening theme from Star Trek: The Next Generation? I'm having a tough time moving with my 7800 stick in the zone with the things that look like horseshoe crabs. Is the movement for this zone programmed any differently from the others, where I have no problem? I don't recall the music in the arcade version being so carnivally!

Voch Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Doesn't the opening music contain a part that sounds remarkably similar to the opening theme from Star Trek: The Next Generation? Yep...it does this in the arcade, too. Check out the KLOV's page on Vanguard. I don't recall the music in the arcade version being so carnivally! I think it was that goofy in the arcade...I'll have to check with my MAME machine when I get it set up this weekend. Voch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted March 26, 2004 Share Posted March 26, 2004 Technically speaking, it's the "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" theme, since Star Trek: The Next Generation didn't come out until 1987. The credits for the movies Star Trek: First Contact and Star Trek: Insurrection all refer to the theme music by that title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-in-NJ Posted March 28, 2004 Author Share Posted March 28, 2004 Knew that about ST: TMP, I just figured that more people here would be familiar with TNG as it's being repeated continuously on Spike TV. The original TMP soundtrack CD is a great disc to use to show off one's audio system, the track "The Cloud" has some incredible lows in it... Sorry about this off-topic-ness, I'm something of a soundtrack collector (though I've lapsed in recent years) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
