View Full Version : Favourite Gaming Soundtracks?
What are your favourite gaming soundtracks? ie music from games?
Could it be an ocarina tune? A Final Fantasy song? Maybe something from Phantom Brave or Disgaea?
I guess you can include music from game-related films too. Why not?
I like Sarias Song from Ocarina of Time and Strange Winds from Phantom Brave.
The Eternal Sonata OST <3 So much loooooove~!
I like music from games far too numerous to mention, but I own about 3 dozen OSTs ive picked up from comic book and game shops (some of which are anime if that counts). :d
Ive been collecting for nearly 5 years, there are some excellent deals out there if you know where to look.

Id have to say that my favourite is definitely the Silent Hill series. It always delivers, including the recently released Homecoming (which Ive yet to play but half the awesome-ness of the soundtracks are how they integrate into the games plotline).
Im also a huge fan of Metroid Primes soundtracks and the classic Donkey Kong Country SNES soundtracks. Brilliant stuff backin the day.

I have to agree with you with silent hill.

No More Heroes!!!
Wait a minute... nobody mentioned Megaman yet?! Well, pretty much all Megaman games have a really cool soundtrack in my opinion.
Quite often there s one track in a game that s really good.
For example Robo Ky s theme (http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=VMMMKCKljJc) in Guilty Gear, the main theme in Fire Emblem, a song in Breath of Fire that I don t know the name of (some call it Alan&Cerl theme, some sad theme, don t know if there s a real name...), or the intro in X-Kaliber 2097 (i doubt anyone knows this so... look here (http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=SkIvNf0r6HQ))
Probably I forgot a lot of good soundtracks now though...
someone stole my post so ill post this again half life 2 episode 2s soundtrack

I was sure that I posted here already?
My favourites would go to:
Final Fantasy VII (Classic tunes, I especially liked Aeris theme since it added emotion to circumstance)
Final Fantasy VIII (Had some pretty cool tunes for boss battles and such)
Metal Gear Solid 4 (Very fitting with the events and tasks of the game)
Streets of Rage 2 (For the main theme)
Silent Hill 2 (Also for the main theme, and for using sound effects instead of music to add atmosphere to the main game)

Streets of Rage 2 (For the main theme)
It is one of the best songs ive heard. There is a beautiful harmony between image, story and music.

For me anything from a Sonic game is just catchy from the go and there is this Sonic 3 soundtrack that has been remixed and sounds fantastic.
I know that some have been mentioned but I really like the following too:
- Eternal Sonata just because there is not a single track that I disliked from the album and that is a lot of cds.
-Blue Dragon because it is quite upbeat and goes so well with the games theme.
-Lost Odyssey as it is so dramactic and it makes the game even more real.
- NiGHTS music because I really like the different remixes for each tune based on the mood of the nightopians.
-Streets of rage 2 as it has the catchiest music from the 3 games for me and the track in the funfair is my favorite.
-Ace attorney series is brilliant and sometimes makes me stall at certain points in the games just to sit there and listen.
-Ristar due to how well it goes with each level
--Panzer Dragoon Zwei and Orta music is also fantastic and is up there with the games beautiful environments.
- Guardian heroes also has some brilliant music on it that always made me want to go back and try to go through all those random levels.
-Phantasy Star Online music for the atmosphere that it brings to the game and how it made me feel like a stranger exploring the unknown Ragol.
-Ninja Gaiden just because of how well it goes with levels.
-Rez as it is what makes the game so addictive and I swear that it even lets you shoot to the rythm of each track!
-Mario Galaxy as it is always a pleasure to listen to and some of the tracks in Super Paper Mario are also quite pleasant.
I have a ton more but I think this is enough.How about if we could show videos of music from the games we like as it might even mean some new gaming discoveries. :)

How could I forget about Eternal Sonata? Some of the best game music out there.
