Good program for chopping up your mp3s. (thank you deusfaux for introducing me to it)

I've always intended to make some Metroid ring tones, but I have never gotten around to it. The Norfair music might be pretty neat as a ring tone.

Also, it's not game-related, but this is my current ring tone.

TheBlackWind

I always wanted a CTU ringtone, but could never find a place I trusted to download it from.

Is this what you're looking for? http://www.ccir.ed.ac.uk/~jad/ringtone.html

(I wasn't quite sure what "CTU" stood for in this case)

Bartholamue

If I ever got a cell phone, I'd put "Call Me" by Go West on there. "Why won't you call this number now?"

SpikedFreak

I was about to start chopping up Hell March, but then I thought someone whos not in "the know" would think I'm a nazi.

EDIT: Does anyone have the super annoying ring tone Bill Murray had in Lost in Translation?

TheBlackWind

That is in fact it. Sorry about just assuming everyone would know. Thanks for the link.

Going to assume he means from 24 - Counter-Terrorism Unit. Jack Bauer. DAMMIT.

That's why I posted the link. :-P

Kelor

Mine is set to the Monkey Island theme. I don't have it to share but god damn is it classy.

AbsoluteZero

If I had a cell phone, this is the ring tone I would have....

Classic Metal Gear Solid codec ring. After it rings 3 or 4 times, Colonel Campbell would go "Snake? Snake!? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!"

That would be awesome.

Dartboy

I've got the Final Fantasy VII victory fanfare.

MalaysianShrew

My friend used to have the beginning of Sex in the Kitchen by R. Kelly. It was glorious.


MMMMMMMM

sex in the kitchen, over by the stove yeaaaaah

UnblockTheBlocked

I am proud to say I am going big with there regular stock ringtones! I set the trends.

Kerbob97

I made a super Mario ringtone, techno tetris, Conkers BFD. It is amazing how many people are all O_o when they hear it.

Roshin

My current ringtone is an MP3 of the theme from Angel, which makes me feel like a vampiric Batman whenever someone calls me. I wish I had a wav or MP3 of the theme from Professor Balthazar, a cartoon they showed on the telly here in Sweden, roughly 100 years ago when I was a kid.

Balt... Balthazar... Balt... Balthazar... Balthazar!

LewieP

aphex twin - flim.

You know it makes sense

I actually have a string quartet performing the opening bars of Falling Away from Me by Korn.

Zombiemambo

Alright, so I'm using Cingular and I want the MGS3 Codec sound. How do I send it to my phone from my PC?

SporkAndrew

You can either get a bluetooth dongle or the data cable for your phone and copy it across.. Or if you have accsess to a webserver you could upload the file somewhere and use your phones internet access to download it..

I copy the MP3s onto my PDAs SD card then either beam it to my phone with the IR or faff around with bluetooth.

And at the moment my ringtone alternates between the pager sound from the original GTA (found somewhere on this board..) and the opening bars to the Metalocylpse theme depending on who's calling. (usually no-one)

Dirtchamber

Right now, I've got the main riff from The Prodigy's Breathe as my ringtone, and Kefka's laugh SFX as my message alert tone (replacing the Metroid item-found fanfare). If anyone wants any of those, just gimme a heads up and I'll upload 'em somewhere.

e-mail from your computer with the song as an attachment. send it to [email protected] btw they'll probably charge you for downloading and I don't know how much, but T-Mobile charged me when I was doing this.

LordNibbler

Currently have either Fruity Oaty Bar or Steel Samurai ringtone from Phoenix Wright.

Echo

I have the male tauren /moo as message sound.

I'm going to rip the murloc gargles as call signal.

DolbyDigital

I am using the ringtone that Jason Statham's character used in "Crank", and it is the best ringtone I have ever heard/used in my life.

Platypus[gEc]

The message sound is either the "one-up" sound from smb or the sound you hear when you discover something new in the original zelda. Call signal is the theme from "Airwolf".

Which is that? I don't remember it for the life of me...

For my text msg tone, I use the wii sound effect for when you hit the Home button on the Wiimote. Sometimes I swap that for the intro to Wii Sports tune.

Heh, I've got Buffy for voicemail and Angel for something else. I'm a dork, but I love it.

More on topic with respect to gaming, I grabbed the Green Hills track (30ish seconds long) from the Shadow of the Colossus soundtrack and use it as my text message sound. It's tranquil and not obnoxious, especially when you're sending messages back and forth, so you're getting it every 60 seconds for a while.

Edit: And now I have Fruity Oaty Bars on my phone! Thanks for the suggestion! (I found it here: http://www.people.virginia.edu/~kmb8c/FOB)

Cowbomb

I use Rave On from Killer 7 for calls and the 'get item' jingle from Zelda for texts.

JihadJesus

I'm going to rip the first 30 seconds or so of Tank! (the Cowboy Bebop theme song) and use that as my main ringtone once I can be bothered to get a cable or a blue tooth dongle...

I tried that but I don't know where I can receive the file.

Ledneh

Look up the song Victorae & Triumphi... something by Turisas. The first 30 seconds or so of that are primo ringtone material if your phone can play MP3s or whatever (instead of just polyphonics)

drhazard

I don't have any video game ringtones, but I would like to say how much I love having a w600i. I just load up Audacity (linked earlier), cut an mp3 to 15 seconds long, fade in and out at the ends, and plug in the USB cord. I've let my friends all choose their own ringtones on my phone--my best friend, More Than a Feeling; my brother, Gypsy Kings' cover of Hotel California; my girlfriend, Black Magic Woman; and for all unknowns, Don't Stop Me Now. Plus plenty more.

I love my w600i, and probably won't upgrade for a long time.

Nogs

Anyone here know where one can find "The Final Countdown" ringtone?

KNYTE

Currently I've got the theme song from Casino Royale by Chris Cornell set as my call ring, and have had the MGS codec beep as my text message alert for a couple of years now.
