I never really played that game because my little brother played through it about 5-6 times while we were living together. Twilight Princess was my Zelda obsession.
 
So, then, it would be safe to say that you are currently mellow.

That's affirmative. I only feel this way cuz I'm gonna turn down a job offer which pays well but the working conditions are not safe at all. I don't exactly feel like working in eastside Montreal at nite...yikes...So...my job search will still go on...again...
 
I never played any of them beyond "Ocarina of Time." At heart I am just not cut out for games requiring that level of commitment.

The music is great in all of them though. I remember being moved to tears when I was a kid watching some story sequence on a GameBoy. Link washed up on a beach and Zelda held him, and from that point on the whole "Legend of Zelda" idea was elevated to bordering-on-religious-appreciation level in my mind. It still kind of is.
 
I played through The Minnish Cap once, and I got lost all the time. It's fucking frustrating to not know what you're supposed to do in such a big game world.
 
I've honestly never really played through a Zelda game.

On the topic of awesome video game soundtrack, Crash is my favorite.

Fuck the above N64/Playstation shit. 3D, as far as console gaming is concerned, is for posers.

Don't be a my pals.

Obviously, yes, NES and SNES are the best (Super Mario World and Super Mario 3 are still my favorite console games ever), but don't start pulling your stuffed-shirt, high-handed console elitism on us.

Yeah there's a lot of tearjerker moments in the Zelda games. Sometimes it gets annoyingly cheesy, but I guess since having an emotional undercurrent is a central factor in the whole concept of a Zelda game then it can't really be avoided.

Man the Terran soundtrack for Starcraft 1 is absolutely slammin'. Rocking out to this shit right now.
Hell yes. The Terran music is like Blizzard's crowning achievement of songwriting aside from the classic Tristram theme in Diablo.
 
Yep. Although I'm pretty much a fan of all the music from Diablo II, but I'm a D2 fanboi so that's to be expected, I guess.
 
Blizzard is absolutely a soundtrack development company first, a game developer second. Tristram's theme is responsible for my love of The Call of Ktulu which is responsible (in large part) for my love of metal.

EDIT: And the cave song is awesome too, especially with those also-Ktulu-like distortion bits.
