Brandon Yates Remix It has to be this way
Hey guys its Xplosomation here! Listening to Brandon Yates tracks from Death Battle, I noticed his music can be categorized with the likes of tracks from dmc, doom, and most notably metal gear rising! One of the sampled tracks I utilized in this remix was sins of the father which depicted Solidus Snake vs King Bradley, so I took part of the song which I believed represented Solidus in the lyrics and remixed it with it has to be this way from mgr. The remix not only fits due to the stylistic similarity, but also because of the role "it has to be this way" plays in the final boss battle of mgr. However the track from brandon yates was not boss battle oriented and rather meant for a vs battle, though the vocals brandon utilizes is similar to mgr music. Given how interested I was in the idea of giving mgs characters mgr styled tracks, why not just fill in the rest of the track with an mgr instrumental? Not only that but due to the role "it has to be this way" serves in the game, it is applicable to any character that raiden fights, as some would argue it would be a theme for raiden. Now character design is another aspect of which needs to be taken under consideration, armstrong who has two themes which serve as his underlying philosophy has his second theme not only applicable to himself, but 2 characters. In an mgr sequel the usage of the theme "it has to be this way" or some other rendition of the theme could serve for other characters which can have other variations of the theme based on there personality. In this case Solidus Snake gets an mgr styled theme which would be fitting for a final boss. Perhaps he will truly become the boss to surpass big boss himself.
