Favourite Game Sountrack

BKtje

I was playing some of my older gaes the last couple of weeks and noticed that their soundtracks left a much better imprint in my mind than some of the newer games. The music really reminded me of the games.

Im just wondering what people think are the best game Sound tracks.

My personal favourite is the music from the original C&C.
Just do it.
Fight, win prevail
High voltage etc

The hell march from ra2 i always enjoyed as well.

Wipeout on PlayStation

DeadBankClerk

cannon fodder!

"War! Never been so much fun!
War! Never been so much fun!
Go to your brother, kill him with your gun,
leave him lying in his uniform, dying in the sun."

and Xenon II - Bomb the Base - "Megablast"
and Wipeout 64

The sound track from Tony Hawk's 2 soundtrack is just awesome. but Old games...hmmm... I just couldnt stop humming to the Kirby sound track, and Mario 1, excellent.

Mr E

I agree with the original C&C soundtrack. The follow-up C&C games just never matched it, did they?

Loved the soundtrack in Full Throttle too (done by biker band "The Gone Jackals")

Dont be at yourself

Yeah, Cannon Fodder's was brilliant. As was THPS2's.

tman

super metroid's was pretty class, wipeout 2097's was cool at the time.

Pepe LeFrits

Don't really recall many game soundtracks, although Red Alert and Tie Fighter's were excellent.

pauldeehan

Metal Gear Solid! Really great music that I can't help but love. Sounds similar to the music from Speed.

also,

Click Clock Wood- Banjo Kazooie
Hell March- Red Alert

DrunkLeprachaun

Final Fantasy IV, VII and X. Nobou Uematsu is one hell if a composer. I also like the Zelda games' music, and pretty much all of the starwars games, especialy Shadows Of The Empire. And Pacman.

jaggeh

Syndicate wars

Bard

eh... Quake II... 'nuff said.

Wipeout is a seriously cool game.
I play it all the time when I'm not busy hacking.
I beat my friend Kate Libby at CyberDelia last year and her boyfriend Curtis was not impressed.

ykt0di9url7bc3

Doom soundtracks (PS version)
Duke Nukem (PS version)

Tomb Raider I (PC version)

any C&C game or Blizzard game

Swifty

The three Wipeouts and some of the FF games (bar the battle tunes that drove me insane over and over again).

Oh yeah, and the SSX Tricky soundtrack owns.

LOL, yeah the idea of setting Reggae music to the backdrop of war was cool!

Full Throttle had a pretty good soundtrack. Lucasarts decided to use the music of a band called Gone Jackals off their album 'Bone to Pick'. Check out tunes such as 'Legacy' and 'Chitlins,Whisky & Skirt'

I also loved a bunch of commodore 64 soundtracks, Last Ninja 2 by Matt Gray, and a lot of the stuff by Martin Galway, and Rob Hubbard to name but a few.

Clintons Cat

i really like the startopia soundtrack,especially the ambient biodeck level.

also final fantasy 7 gets a vote.

Shinji

I've liked a lot of Umetsu's soundtracks - FFX and FF7 are high points, although there have been memorable tracks on just about everything he's done.

Square's "other" composer is Yasunori Mitsuda, who did the soundtracks for the Chrono games and for Xenogears, all of which are superb. Xenogears in particular is a magnificent piece of work, audio-wise.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night has to get a vote.

Ohh... and Klonoa 2, just for madness value. Anyone who's played it will know the snowboarding track I'm referring to...

Cake Fiend

Secret of Mana
FF7
Zelda 3
Quake 1+2
Half-Life music was cool, what little of it there was
Loaded

TinCool

PC: Quake2
Arcade: King of the Fighters '94
C64: Commando; Rambo First Blood Part 2

Kairo

Most Squaresoft titles have kicking OSTs (even old Snes titles ). In the FF7 battle music, I just get shivers down my spine when the Flute kicks in.

Chrono Cross' celtic ensemble would be my second favourite..

That's definetly one of my favorite soundtracks for a game ever.
Quite amazing.

Little known, but the very first Legacy Of Kain game had some of the most amazingly dark music ever to grace a game.

Wook

NIN on the quake game, superb !
and cannon fodder

Bob the Unlucky Octopus

Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights, in fact any BioWare RPG scored by Jeremy Soule. Loved the original C&C soundtrack too (I'm a mechanical...I'm a mechanical man!)
