GB Player: Do you prefer playing with the new music or the old?

[Shadowlord757]

Old music all the way, especially in lavander town XD

Actually, I never have played the GB sounds in my Heartgold game (except the time I checked it out). Although, the old 8-bits music was better in my opinion, but more in composition than in sound. I was disappointed when I heard the new music of Heartgold because I thought they could do much more cool things with the material than fill it up with random instruments and weird extra passages. But... to play with the graphics of Heartgold and hear those 8-bits sounds? I do not like that experience, so I do not use the GB option. I prefer to enjoy the music of which I think it is still good (the Team Rocket Theme, the Tin Tower for example). The new music also has some pros, what do you think about the National Park piano cadenza? It is fantastic, for sure!

Definitely into both, but leaning towards Old.

I actually don't have a GB but I use the emulator on my laptop. When I go into a town in SS I go to the same town in Silver on my laptop

Er... GB Player is an item that allows you to toggle between the new music and the old music. After you get all 16 badges or something you can get that item from a Gamefreak employee in Celadon City.

The old music is definitely much better plus it makes me feel like i'm playing the original version.

I like the GB Player on. It brings back so many memories. Ahh, nostalgia.
Then again, the new music is like a Pick-Me-Up (lol Super Mario RPG ref) so, it's also nice to hear too.
I can't...choose. xD They're both awesome to me!

Sometimes I have it on, sometimes off... normally off, call me crazy but in a lot of places I prefer new. >_>;; And I played the original to death as a kid.

It'd be cooler if they'd made it change the graphics too, lul.

I love the gb player SO MUCH but getting it that late in the game was a shame.
If they would've just ran with the gb player from the very first moment (like a mysterious package appearing at the door when you leave the house) I would've sent letters of praise to gamefreak that very instance and would have loved heartgold so so much more than I did now xd

[TiBon]

Of course, that's the music I grew up with, it has literally scarred me (but now I prefer playing White xD)

[Sirath]

I will play the music for a while until I get bored, then I"ll change it so it's not stuck in my head too long. Either way the music is enjoyable. It just offers a nice little change to the routine.
