Game music! Birthday! Level up! [Giveaways over. Youtube playlist availabile if you're interested]

Closed

Giveaway time!

I'm almost level 9, so these giveaways should push me over.
All the giveaways end on my birthday, March 15th.
I want your input to add to my music playlist!

I've put together a playlist of my favourite video game music, currently 66 songs (now 75 songs, thanks to you guys!). Generally I've added music from games I've played and enjoyed, with just a few exceptions. I've made a pretty easy quiz with just 7 music questions. If you are able to identify what games the famous music is from, then you'll reach all the giveaways (31 in total, most bundled, some unbundled) and the link to my full playlist. Don't worry! If you can't answer the questions, some hints will appear a day later, and if you still can't answer the questions, I may add some easier hints in the thread next week. Once the giveaways are over, I will add the full playlist here in case anyone else wants to add their recommendations.

Q5 is very loud, sorry about that! Please lower your volume before listening ;-)

31 giveaways at the end of the puzzle, for level 2+. level 4+ and level 6+
Plus 1 extra whitelist giveaway.

update
397 players, and 129 solvers. Not bad!

Less than 24 hours left now, which means if you haven't tried the quiz yet, the hints won't reveal in time to help you (24-hour countdown for hints). If anyone needs a hint for a question, reply and maybe I'll give an extra hint. Cheers!

update 2
Ok in hindsight, perhaps setting the 24 hour hint thing was too long. Here's the hints for those late comers trying to solve now:

Q1. Come on... everyone knows this one! It's a classic from the SNES days. It's Super.
Q2. She died. We cried. Maybe we'll do so again when the remake is Finally released.
Q3. A bit of the old ultra violence. In Miami.
Q4. This is how I roll! Ok so not everyone knows this one, which is a shame. It's one of the best games from the PS2. Very unique and fun gameplay. Bright and colourful and crazy Japanese game (though released in English too).Still don't know it? Ask the King of All Cosmos.
Q5. Classic old arcade game, great for co-op. Bubbly.
Q6. The cake is a lie. Maybe.
Q7. A tale of a mighty pirate, known for his charm and good looks. Legend has it he still roams the Island today, searching for the finest rum. (the rum part of the hint has nothing to do with the game, but rather the person with the same name as the game's protagonist who has a slight rum addiction.

Giveaways over, thanks for taking part. If you'd like to listen to the youtube playlist anytime, feel free to make more suggestions so I can expand the playlist! Cheers!

Ouch, some of those are tough. Some ones from Chrono Trigger/Cross would've been surprising, maybe some Neopets The Darkest Fairie so I can continue to gloat about how surprisingly good that game was. Suikoden has some good music (Carried On Rippling Waves is one I would've definitely gotten right away, I love that song and it's the only one I know from the games, haha) and I haven't even played any of them, heh. #2 I still need to play, and that's a definite for me. If only for the music. The song you put for #2 gives me the nostalgia chills and I've never even played it. Perhaps I just respect the song in a way.

EDIT: I could only really get 1(technically, I don't know what to put in exactly for it to be correct), 2, and 6, and 7(technically again, don't know what to put for it to count). I swear I know 3 but I just can't name it.

EDIT 2: Oh, I guess #7 was literal. :P

EDIT 3: I guess #1 was simple too? Haha. I suck at these puzzle giveaways, heh.
