Best Video Game Soundtrack

[IPM Music]

We have one for best game, but how about what really matters - The Music!

Go for something composed, like Zelda, or a "Pop" soundtrack, like Madden.

I haven't played many new games, but when I was a kid, I swore Final Fantasy 3 for SNES had the best music. And it never really got beaten by any other composed soundtrack. I eventually heard it done by a real orchestra, and that just made it a lock for me.

You?

Just Epic

 

[Majestic Mastermind]

RPG's usually have the best soundtracks

Lost Odyssey comes to mind

 

[Ddream]

Silent Hill series. Akira Yamaoka is one of my greatest influences.

 

[infradead]

love the bit around the end that was remixed by zombie nation.

 

[Wallengard]

Tetris and Windows XP 3D Pinball "space cadet".

I really like the radio channels in San Andreas.

Call me crazy, but I really dig the scores from the early Spyro games. Stewart Copeland scores...nothing subsequent.

At the moment. FF13 and Dyad really sticks out. I'll probably add more in a couple weeks lol.

Here's one from an indie game I played once or twice called Faster Than Light. On the chiptunes side of things, but I liked a lot of it. FTL | Ben Prunty Music

Oh yeah. Mass Effect. How could I forget.

Unreal Tournament series. A lot of the music on those games is pretty awesome imo.

I actually went to youtube yesterday to listen to the opening them to unreal torney 1 because I though of it and it gave me a sort of flashback when I heard it. I owned the game so didn't think it was stealing to listen.

Zeldas, Goldeneye N64,

I personally think the music for Sonic Adventures was amazing, but I'm highly biased towards anything with Sonic in it.

Dishonored. Grim Fandango.

Two of my favorite games! Grim Fandango was a pretty fun game to play, alongside with Monkey Island.

Fallout 3 had a pretty badass soundtrack. Jet set radio future had a wicked tracklist too.

A game called Cave Story i used to play had some cool beats too it aswell. Pretty sweet game too
