Summary
The first All-Stars Racing title, like with Tennis, reuses music. Although Transformed would remix stage tracks, in this case certain past songs would be chosen (unaltered). As a result there is mostly just menu music.
I was a bit surprised that the game contained a vocal theme, "So Much More," because I don't think it returned in Transformed, or if it was remixed there weren't any vocals. Pop-ish and fits the spirit of the game I guess.
The DS version included MIDI versions of songs like "Final Fortress" and "Can You Feel the Sunshine?"
Best Song: Windy and Ripply (DS)
Runner-Up (s): Menu, Shopping, Mission Menu, Lobby, "So Much More," EGGMAN (DS), Seaside Hill (DS), Final Fortress (DS)
Emerald Coast, Sonic Adventure's first level, is loved by fans, but I've found it exhaustible. However this peppy versions puts a retro Genesis-type of spin on it that makes it fun.
Worst Song: Awards Ceremony
Runner Up (s): Can You Feel the Sunshine? (DS)
With all the cheering, it's just not as enjoyable.
Final Ranking: D
- Even though there wasn't new music for the stages, the music created for the game is pretty cool and energetic.
- The DS version may seem limited, but the remixes give fan-favorite modern songs a classic spin.
Despite a more memorable main theme (and a vocal theme), it winds up inferior compared to the many mixes in Transformed.
