    First saw this game at a friend's house. He smartly had his game audio pumped through his stereo and the asteroid sequence literally filled the room. I bought the game the next day and just about played non-stop through it over a weekend. It wasn't just the great music, it was the sound and mood the game created. I found it easy to imagine the rest of the world the story took place in. The ending stayed with me for a long time. One of my favorite game experiences. Thanks for the memories, LA.

    Best game ever, I played it when I was like 7 years old, and I play it to this day. I have completely lost the count on how many times I have played it, probably hundreds. The story is so good... and the music... oh my god, Land (and Wagner), they are so good, I'm about to cry right now.

    It took me a while, but I finished this game when I only eight years old or so.
    If I had but one wish to make while on this planet, it would be to have The Dig turned into a film in which the actors, writing, and the director would do the game justice.
    Excellent soundtrack, thought provoking, and overall a great game. :)

    03:53 - 05:47 dialogue section in the music is otherworldly in sound and feeling of space
    at 06:36 the build-up to the tubular bell is very powerful with the feeling of a brilliant majestic kingdom
    the choir at the end fills up the expanse of space and time.

    I seriously can't believe I somehow missed this amazing game back when I was younger, graphics be damned, expectations of hilarious game play be damned-

    Starting at about 4:45 there's a slow tension build that I can't get out of my head. Also, the melodic phrases bursting forth at about 8:30 are just beautiful... wish they lasted longer, but that's hardly a criticism.

    @AnubusStar Maybe this is because Michael Land (composer) used Richard Wagner music samples to make this soundtrack. You can find some answers here: dig.mixnmojo.com/museum/interview_land.html

  • @CrazyDantw
    @CrazyDantw 13 років тому

    Yeah, I agree! The first time I played this game, I thought, "Why is this not a movie?" Having said that, I think Hollywood would fuck up this great idea and it would not meet our expectations. All we can do is appreciate the original for what it was. What it is. So immersive, so original, so deep.

    i agree on the soundtrack; considering it is ENTIRELY synthesizer, Michael Land did an AMAZING job with it! I'd love to hear someone like Jeremy Soule or James Horner get ahold of the music and redo it with a live orchestra and choir. Hell, someone could even try their hand at a reboot of the game too! I'd definitely by it!

  • @Coaldrone
    @Coaldrone 13 років тому

    What is gobsmacking about this game is its stratospheric concept. Bearing in mind these are the same dudes that made Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle, this is a game about three people thrown against their will into an old, abandoned world populated by a race of beings who severed their corporeal connection with reality in a misguided attempt to achieve godhood. Beautiful, desolate, immortal. I am privileged to have been alive at the point in history when Cocytus was given to us to explore.
