Around 0:59.

Is that Sky Lagoon, or am I going crazy?

Any.  I don't even know if it's Sky Lagoon.

I actually don't notice anything. But it's been years since I actually spent some time on X4, so I could be wrong.

I'd have to agree. It did remind me of X' X4 intro stage.

I agree with the above posters

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

Actually it reminded me a lot more of Zero's than X's.

Commander Shepard: *stares blankly at a video of scantily clad asari dancers* ...What kind of hotel is this?
Liara T'Soni: It is a luxury resort with an... exotic edge.  Azure is slang for a part of the asari body in some places on Illium.
Shepard: Where?
Liara: The lower reaches, near the bottom.
Shepard: I meant, "where on the asari body?"
Liara: So did I.

I think you're just going crazy. I can't hear either of them

It just sounds X4 intro stage-ish.

I suppose...

On a second listen, it sounds a tiny bit like Zero's, I think. (very large emphasis on tiny)

It's possible, but I don't think so from my listen.

Yeah, the sound definitely gives that vibe, but I can't think of any stage yet...it's actually kinda bugging me...and may so for the rest of the day.

Edit: ...strangely i'm thinking of Split Mushroom's stage.

Listening around some tracks.  Only 1-2 notes sound familiar but not to the point where the two are identical, just a couple o' similar notes then they just have different notes right after.  That's all I can say.

It sounds like similar to X's Opening Stage, but I don't think it would be enough to call it a rip-off.

It kinda reminds me of X2's Magna Centipede and the music when you fight Zero.

It had a sort of X4 flavor. I'm not sure if I'd call it a ripoff though. It almost sounded more like a segment of Magma Dragoon to me.

Mordin Solus: A repurposed krogan hospital.  Fortified against attack, sturdy.
Garrus Vakarian: That's unfortunate.  Hospitals are no fun to fight through.
Commander Shepard: What is fun to fight through?
Garrus Vakarian: Gardens, electronics shops... antique stores, but only if they're classy.

What's so impossible about that game, anyway?  I take issue with using "impossible" to mean "very difficult".

The best track I can identify it with is Jet Stingway's BGM.

The tempo's very similar, and they both also share a similar pitch.
