28 days later theme?

[evryPixelcounts]

I recently heard this theme and thought of the main menu music...is it the same song?

[YamaKami]

nope

[Jenkins]

there's some kind of association, they licensed it. old story

[evryPixelcounts]

ok

[The Lone Wanderer]

John Murphy - In a house in a heartbeat is the main 28 days later theme song.

Different song and artist :)

i looked it up and they are different but extremely similiar i believe the 7dtd theme is just a remix of the 28 days later theme from what i read

It is similar, and there is no association or silence having to do with 28 days later. Unrelated other than sounds similar.

Funny argumentation. "Similar". ROFL. It's just a remix and probably the reason why they have a new theme in the game, because it was probably not licensed.

[The Lone Wanderer]

Well, not neccessarily.

There's a game called contagion, I bought the soundtrack because I liked it enough, it's sort of like a slower paced version of L4D2 (a valve game) and it's sountrack is much closer to in the house in a heartbeat.

There's a lot of music out there that are different but use similar chord progessions and such but at different key's or will use a pentatonic scale in such a way that even though note progression is quit edifferent it will register as similar to the ear.

If it was that close or a remix, there would be copywrite issues :)

Except it is not a remix. The reason they have a new one was over legal jargon to do with the old one. I think it had to do with the owner of the track wanting too much $$$. In any event it is not at all what-so-ever related to 28 days later. They both use a piano is where that buck stops.

Contagion is fun, not the prettiest game ever but fun. Where as l4d feels too gamey like it was made for the arcade. My weapons feel useless as in they have no stopping power. All the special mobs just add cheese beyond that, can't stand it. Contagion though I must thumbs up. I had Resident Evil nostalgia playing that game.

Hell yeah, I much prefer contagion over L4D2 (they're both valve lol) It's a slower paced, better atmosphered game in my opinion. THe slower pace and the things like having to conserve ammo because it's not just liitless pistolling like in l4d2.

I have to agree :)

So many love L4D... Well it's just nice to run into someone with better taste for a change lol

[The Lone Wanderer]

Lol, must be all that zombie and fertilizer'd food. Makes you appreciate the finer tastes more :D
