I bought the humble indie bundle recently, and I couldn't help but notice that the music in the trailer for "Revenge of the Titans" is awesome. Granted, it's definitely not a chiptune, but it's in that same style.

That got me thinking about cave story. I never played the game all that much, but the soundtrack for it is amazing!

I'm just wondering... what other awesome songs like this are out there?

I like 8 bit versions of actual songs, my favourite band is Architects, so I think this is awesome.

The high score music in Commando on the c64 was really good.


Hmm, I wonder what's coming in 2011?

Ooh ooh I wrote a chiptune song or two. They're not nearly as polished as someone like Anamanaguchi though:

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post my favourites chiptune, as I understand conversation concerning that pastel-coloured equine IP i banned.

However yeh, if I'm allowed to post it, (as it's on topic), I'll post it.

I love KOZILEK. Only some are really completely chiptunes - most tends towards electronic dance - but hey, in the same vein.

For real chiptunes, I check 8bc.org a lot.
