There's so much beautiful video game music out there, so I wanted to show you/share/remind you of some of my favorites!
Get through the not very hard(?) puzzle to find a train with bundled and some unbundled games at the end! To enter, all you need is to be lvl1+ and pass the SG tools check for no rule violations.
Enjoy! :-)

Games on the train are:

-Endorlight
-Age of Steel: Recharge
-Alien Rage - Unlimited
-Death Goat
-Knights of Pen and Paper +1 Deluxier Edition
-Cities in Motion 2 Collection
-Darksiders
-Red Faction Guerrilla Steam Edition
-SanctuaryRPG: Black Edition
-Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 Collector's Edition
-Chivalry: Medieval Warfare
-Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition

You can still get on the train until January 24th!
The giveaways have ended! Congratulations to the winners, keep your eyes peeled for the next VGM puzzle ;-)

edit: I guess my taste is more niche than I thought! Updated some of the hints.

edit2: I really wanted my giveaways to be open to anyone, but so far less than 30 people have solved it. That's why I have now added screenshots of each game to make it easier to guess. While they may still be old, some of you may recognize the images, while others who don't have an even easier way of finding the solution. Good luck to all!

Come now, don't insult me ;-)
But I have to say I remember your characters, voice acting and jokes more than any of the music.
And I remember your resolution being far, far poorer :-P

Can I just say how happy I am that you added pictures? I tried this puzzle a few days ago and solved all but three (one of which I knew the series, but couldn't figure out the exact game. I would've kept trying random ones to get it, but I couldn't find anything on the other two, so I just gave up on the puzzle), but couldn't progress any farther. The pictures REALLY helped! Thanks for the really fun and interesting puzzle!

You can, of course ;-)
I wanted many people to have a chance to enter the giveaways. After realizing it's too difficult, I made the hints easier, but I guess not everyone wants to sit around for 45 minutes. Sadly, you can't change the timer after you've created a puzzle, will definitely make it shorter next time! I'm just glad the people who do get through enjoy it :-)

It stinks that you can't change the timer :/ But yeah, I got 2 right off the bat just from knowing the music, then I got all but 3 (2 and a half) using the hints, and the pictures helped finish it off lol

But yeah, the entries right now is pretty crazy! Only 35ish entries on the most entered one (at the time I entered, could be more now)? That'll probably change now that there are pictures.

But yeah, it was a really fun puzzle! And I kept listening to the tunes as I waited for the hints to appear. I love video game music! It was really cool to see a puzzle incorporating it! :)

Haha yeah, that's true! Maybe I'll get my first SG win if it stays like this :)

But yeah, VGM's rock!

I think so too, but for many people, I guess the music is not enough to recognize them.

Bumped. Be careful about the names, some has to be very specific.
