Game Soundtracks

[zabu of nΩd]

Hell yeah

Icewind Dale had a pretty good soundtrack too. I mainly remember it for the Kuldahar theme.

Doom 3 had a badass soundtrack.
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within had the worst.
Example:

You see a badass castle. Queue Godsmack.

Everyone knows that Emperor's ITNE is the soundtrack of choice for epic badass castles.

I completely forgot that Godsmack was even in that game. Shitty soundtrack for a shitty game.

the game was passable. godsmack fit the fight scenes, but nothing else.

I love the music to the Halo games, I have the Halo 2 Vol 1 soundtrack. I also like the music in Oblivion, WoW, Zelda, and this one Starwars game I have. Oooh and the music in Clash At Demonhead, this game we had for the original nintendo.

 

[Personified Hatred]

Hum... I like very much the soundtracks of FlatOut 2 and Need For Speed Carbon (from this one, just the rock songs).

 

[Black Friday]

I also like the music in Oblivion

Oblivion's much like Morrowind, soundtrack-wise. A few good songs, but not much other stuff. Daggerfall remastered stuff is amazing though, so nostalgic.

 

[SatansSon]

Carmageddon has the greatest soundtrack ever.

 

[Hatebreeder]

Final Fantasy soundtracks own everything. Except the ones without Nobuo Uematsu, they were pretty average (minus the FFX soundtrack)

Also...

Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Legend of Dragoon
Sonic the Hedgehog (midi masterpieces)
Kirby series (simple, but well-written)

Yeah, because of the Iron Maiden.

That's how I first heard anything by Maiden, actually.

Agreed.

The main theme absolutely kills. I just wish that the theme had been made earlier so the Megadeth version wouldn't suck.

For the hundreds of hours I've sunk into FF games, I can barely remember any of the music besides the little victory theme.

Yet I recall significant amounts of the music from Sonic and Megaman games. Just really catchy stuff.

I can't say I've ever sat an listened to a game's OST.

 

[DarkBliss]

I love the the music in the old PC game Fury of the Furries and some of the town themes in Heroes of Might and Magic 3.
The Tristram tune in the first Diablo was also great. I haven't played the game in five years or more, but still remember the music.

But, like MasterOLightning said, I don't listen to game OSTs voluntarily.
Bad music won't break a good game for me(the Burnout series spring to mind, as well as Devil May Cry 3, the battle theme song, that is), since you can turn it off at will, and good music won't save a half-baked game. I guess, what I'm trying to say is that I view in-game music more like a supplement to the experience rather than something that stands on its own.

 

[SatansSon]

No, that was Carmageddon 2 that had Aces High, the first Carmageddon had Fear Factory.

 

[Matt]

The Soul Calibur 4 music is awesome

 

[tagradh]

Diablo series
Baldurs Gate series
Half Life series
HOMEWORLD - better than most ambient/electronic band material
Doom, for lulz
Eve Online - on the same level with Homeworld tbh
Monkey Island games ;D most uplifting shit ever
Fallout Series
Grim Fandango
Sim City and The Sims (as much as I hate it) Jerry Martin ftw
Silent Hill - I listen to this shit loads when reading. The song 'Promise' owns

This.

I used to have the victory theme from FFX as my message tone on my mobile .

And you shall have it again! I'll probably set this as my voicemail notification.
