Video Game Music
 

We've probably done this topic before, but post your favorite songs you've heard from your favorite games. It could be a beautifully composed song full of a variety of instruments or 8-bit music, I don't care.

Here are three I really enjoy:

Brawl- Tetris Type B


Chrono Cross- Another Guldove


Mega Man IV- Ring Man stage


Sonic 2- Chemical Plant Zone
Post yours!

I'd love to post a link or something, but I'm on my iPod right now and can't paste anything. Or copy.

Anyway, my favorite piece of music is Stickerbrush Symphony from DKC2 - the Bramble Scramble music. No other game will ever beat that, the best piece of videogame music has been written.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Adding another post with Sonic music: This ties with Chemical Plant Zone in my favorite Sonic music category :p



Oh, how I hated falling into the water..

Re: Video Game Music
 

Chrono Cross - Time's Scar



Suikoden 3 - Endless Love I think it was called?

I don't remember but it was one of the few things I truly enjoyed about the game.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Probably one of the most memorable songs of my life. It encapsulates my sweet, sweet, innocent childhood.



Another amazing classic from Sonic 3. Again, reminds me of childhood summers playing these games with my friends for hours on end.



And Streets of Rage Stage 1 song. Such a great game.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Good to see this topic finally posted.

Geo and I always ended up talking about doing one especially on sonic music.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Vortal Combat, HL2 Ep.2



I dont know if this counts but its still awesome.

Re: Video Game Music
 

I have way too many to list, but here's a few that I like recently.



Brawl - Underground Theme (Super Mario Land)



Brawl again - Tetris A

There's others from Metroid Prime, Chrono Trigger, Skies of Arcadia, Super Mario Galaxy and countless other games.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Well first I am going to fix this thread and include Geo's favorite video game song EVER. I mean you should hear the excitement when this song pops up in Smash.


Sonic Boom


Sonic 2 Sky Chase Zone


Super Mario Bros 3- Sub Boss music. One of my ringtones
There is also a story to go with it. :lol:

Re: Video Game Music
 

I love all the music from Castlevania: SotN. Same with FFVII, the music from that one just brings me back to my younger days.



And one song that will always stick in my head was from a 3D sonic game. Not sure which one but it was in a downhill race through a san francisco like city.


Something about running around at the speed of sound.




Still stuckin my head

Re: Video Game Music
 

I'm bored and I want to post more memorable tunes (warning, FF-whoring coming up)


Final Fantasy VI Boss Battle Theme


Final Fantasy VIII Boss Battle Theme


Final Fantasy IX- The Place I'll Return to Someday


Final Fantasy IX- One Danger Put Behind Us <-- you could almost imagine yourself in the pub :p

Chrono Trigger- Zeal.. I still remember the first time playing that game :)


Super Mario RPG- Armed Boss Battle (Axem Rangers, anyone? :lolz: )


Majora's Mask- Deku Nut Palace


That's it for now, but don't worry, I'll be posting more later. :p

Re: Video Game Music
 

I don't have youtube. But I LOVE Final Fantasy and Metroid music. (THe place I'll return to someday is fantastic!) Castlevania and Zelda have some good tunes as well.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Youtube is bugged for me, the songs won't play. They stop after 2 seconds.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Just youtube Chrono Cross OST. There isn't a bad song on that thing. Time's Scar is particularly amazing, good to see it's already been posted.

He's another favorite from Mitsuda:

Lost Forest - Legaia 2


Metal Gear Solid series rocking the sound:

Metal Gear Solid - Main Theme


Metal Gear Solid - The Best Is Yet To Come


Props to Vagrant Story and Sakimoto:

Vagrant Story - Ifrit Boss Theme


Vagrant Story - Tieger and Neesa


Final Fantasy X - People Of The North Pole


Final Fantasy X - Blitz Off


Final Fantasy X - Besaid Island

Re: Video Game Music
 

Two of the greats right here.



And by the way, the fact that no one has mentioned the Halo themes yet is pretty silly. The music in those games enhanced the gameplay, for Christ's sakes. :cool:

Re: Video Game Music
 

If we're talking FFX, nothing beats To Zanarkand.

Bah, I can't pick the right version because Youtube doesn't work. But actually I only know the piano one.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Why don't you have YouTube? Where do you live?

Re: Video Game Music
 

In the boonies. I have satellite internet which has a bandwidth restriction, and if you use to much bandwidth they slow you waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down. And YouTube sucks down bandwidth, so I can't use it. (Or at least not much)

Re: Video Game Music
 

Well that sucks.
You need to make sure you save all your bandwidth to read my story. :p

Anyhow.

Molgera Boss Theme

Re: Video Game Music
 

Orchestrated Midna's Lament


Good Egg Galaxy

Re: Video Game Music
 

Meh uber bumping this too.

Some of the best FF music is here:







Although I think it sounds a little like the halloween music.

Re: Video Game Music
 

Re: Video Game Music
 

Bayonetta!

Re: Video Game Music
 

The Mass Effect series has had some excellent music

Re: Video Game Music
 

Gotta give respect to Live 99, the live concert sounding blues tracks helped elevate the game.





And.. to MGS3.. I think this game had the best soundtrack of the MGS games personally. I like the slow rock and jazz.





Lastly, but not least... Love Sonic Adventure 2's music. I like how they had all the characters singing themselves. lol



That theme was used in the Sonic Smash Bros teaser too.
