Favorite game soundtrack?
All things considered, my vote would have to go to Xenogears. I could listen to any song from it for hours and probably not get fed up.

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?
Metal Gear Solid Series. Harry Gregson-Williams and Norihiko Hibino are the best. That new guy they got to go along with Williams in MGS4 was not bad either. I also like Hans Zimmer, he never did music for a game but he did a lot of great music for movies like The Rock and Pirates of the Caribbean.

I like Yuzo Koshiro's music from Revenge of Shinobi and Streets of Rage. I even bought Actraiser just because he did the music.

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?
I have to say Metal Gear series... there isn't really many game soundtracks i like to listen. Metal Gear is obvious since im big fan as well as everyone here. I also listen sometimes Snatcher soundtracks. Silent Hill has also very good musics, especially second part of the series.
But that's about it. Usually if i listen OST music it's most likely Movie soundtacks.

I know rehashing old threads isn't really useful, but I thought I'd leave my input here.
No-one's heard a great video game soundtrack until they've played Grim Fandango.

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?
At the moment I'm really falling in love with the Mother 3 soundtrack. There's just too many catchy and emotional tunes in it - the entire game is exceptionally emotional, now that I think of it.
Other than that you can dish me almost any soundtrack Yasunori Mitsuda worked on next to Hitoshi Sakimoto (Vagrant Story, anyone?).

Yeah definatly Shinobi and Streets of Rage...GREAT music!Omega579 wrote:I like Yuzo Koshiro's music from Revenge of Shinobi and Streets of Rage. I even bought Actraiser just because he did the music.
(man they need to re-invent the streets of rage franchise! lots of kicking ass to kick-ass techno!)
When i was like a kid I always found myself recording Genesis videogame music back in the day...
with my trusty mic and tape recorder, before they started releasing the soundtracks
(or really having actual cd quality music for that matter).
It was a good thing when they decided to start releasing game soudtracks
Here are some of my fav's :
Qauke
Resident Evil / RE : Code V
Final Fantasy 7
Metal Gear Saga
Snatcher
Jet Grind Radio
Wipeout XL
And of course I remember the days of Tommy Tallarico's game soudtracks....anyone remember those?
I don't seem to notice videogame music as much anymore....it all kinda sounds the same....don't know why.
it's been awhile since I've wanted to run out and buy a soundtrack, I usually don't get the soundtrack unless I really enjoyed the game though...so that could be it.

MDK
I still have the Soundtrack, but not the game
It was selled in a package, and I loved it! And still do!
I think the MDK Soundtrack was one that really hit me.
Homeworld 2 is great, too!
Furthermore, MGS and Silent Hill series OSTs are my favourite!
Terminator Salvation has a great Soundtrack, too. Even though the game is not so good...
Oh, I forgot to mention the one series O love almost the most:
COMMAND AND CONQUER
Hell March ftw

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?
Anything but Tangerines (from Earthworm Jim 2) by Tommy Tallerico is definitely the best work I've heard by him. He's talented but not been as good as late...
And I love Lost Eden's OST by Stéphane Picq. Unlike any other music I've ever heard in any game (very unique), and otherwise. It blew me away when I first heard it.

No one, up to this point, has mentioned Secret of Mana? Shameful. My vote goes to Secret of Mana before going onto games like Super Mario RPG and Xenogears.
Oh, and let's not forget Mega Man 3 for a fourth place. Like the game itself, Mega Man 3's soundtrack outdoes its predecessors and successors.

Sure, mainstream games are fun, but you haven't tried Snatcher yet.

I don't know about favorite, but Tales of Legendia's soundtrack was so good that I almost overlooked all of the game's flaws. The soundtrack was the game. (that and an excellent cast of characters)

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?
Pretty much anything chiptune; got this huge music-crush going on with Jeroen Tel and the Maniacs of Noise. I also like Deus Ex's sountrack a lot, but my favourite soundtrack ever has to be the one fron HotD: Overkill. GOD, it's so cheesy, funky, and downright gross I can't help but hear it everyday.

I like a few songs from different soundtracks
to pick one whole one is hard. I don't have
a definative answer right now I would have
to go listen to some more from my favorite
games.
One song I really enjoyed was flowing destiny from Zone of Enders
I first heard it in Metal Gear Solid 4. It actually made me go buy ZOE haha.
I also really liked some songs in Chrono Cross mostly the ones reminiscent of
Chrono Trigger.
And as Marc said Xenogears has a good sound track too.

Aside from the obvious with Snatcher and MGS, I'd have to say my favorites include:

Shenmue

SONIC The Hedgehog (mostly Jun Senoue's work)
The Tales Of... Series by Motoi Sakuraba (Mostly Abyss and Vesperia; Symphonia is good, too)
Eternal Sonata feat. work by Frederic Francois Chopin
Guilty Gear Series (Great rock tracks)

Re: Favorite game soundtrack?
I'm picky about game soundtracks. I love a lot of them, but I'm only going the list the soundtracks that I would listen to outside of the game. I'll also post a track or two of my favorites from each.
Final Fantasy X - I thought this soundtrack was beautiful, and it fit the flow the game perfectly. Every setting had a unique song that perfectly fit with it's visual representation. I love the Besaid Island tracks.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2UjfueRo7g
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McjTN-i2 ... re=related (I love this track so much <3)
Mother 3, Actually, the entire mother series - This is a wonderful and emotional soundtrack. Many of the tracks are like classical compositions. They deserve to be played by an orchestra. Every track is unique, and it covers all sorts of genres.

Samurai Legend Musashi - The game was average, but the soundtrack (and visuals) were fantastic. I absolutely love many of the tracks. White Whale of Heaven is great. Brave Fencer Musashi also had a pretty decent soundtrack as well.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEuRzRW86bI
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e626to1-m4E
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 - This is my favorite sonic game, and it contains my favorite OST as well. The entire series (on genesis) has a great sound, but there isn't a song on the second game that isn't stellar. It's like the soundtrack to my childhood.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zl4vA4Wd07Q
The entire Panzer Dragoon Series has wonderful soundtracks as well.
Can't forget Night's Into Dreams
and of course Snatcher (Love the Zoom Tracks) and Policenauts. Policenauts F/N is great.
