Duuuuuude awsome thread.


DKC- Aquatic Ambience
TLOZ- Zeldas Lullaby
TMNT4- Neon Night Riders

I just have to pick these three as there would otherwise be too many. I do love me some chrono trigger music though!

Koschei 02-22-2010 09:48 PM

hhhhmmmm.
I would have to say I like the oldies

Legend of Zelda-Dungeon Theme and Opening
Castlevania- Opening theme(pretty much all of the music through out the game)


Will also throw in FF10-Fight Song

A lot of the 8-bit and 16-bit themes get stuck in my head all the time, as well as some fighting game themes. Probably the ones most often repeating are the music from the Streets of Rage series (mostly 2, but sometimes others), the classic Tetris GB theme (the one based on the Russian folk song, the name of which escapes me), and yes, a lot of Crush40 songs. Contrary to Turo, Sonic Heroes is actually the only one I don't like >.<

Dude same here, and I did also forget to mention Streets of Rage 2 music. The old games always have the best music, those are the classics, like the opening of the first Zelda.

Dire Dire, Docks from Super Mario 64 comes to mind.

I love threads like this. There is so much content to enjoy out there that you get exposed to new ones every time. I hear a lot that there is no appreciation for classical instrumental music anymore, but video games and its fans are a testament to that this couldn't be more wrong. Let's see if I can do this without tapping into Final Fantasy's massive library.

Wild Arms is a massively underrated game when it comes to soundtracks. Its sound is very distinct and really beautiful. Especially the calm tunes give you a grand sense of adventure and exploration that few other games are able to match.
Overworld
The intro theme
Town
Port
Battle

My most played game tracks on my ipod (that aren't from the main FF series):
(PS1) Wild Arms2 - Overworld mix One of the best ever!
(PS2) Curse of Darkness - Garibaldi courtyard
(SNES) Wild Guns - Desolation canyon
(PS2) Okami - Time of parting
(SNES) Final Fantasy Mystic Quest - Boss music
(PS1) Chrono Cross - Scars of time (another example of a perfect OST, highly recommended)
(SNES) Actraiser - Filmore
(PS1) Grandia 2 - Battle
(PS1) Legend of Mana - Title
(PS2) Wild Arms 5 - One Day You'll Forget the Hopes and Dreams
(SNES) Terranigma - Underworld
(SNES) Terranigma - Overworld
(PS2) Kingdom Hearts- Traverse town
(PS2) Dragon Quest VIII - Overture

Music from Super Metroid and Metroid Prime is awesome. I also have the music in actual piano-human played versions, not just the music from the game while you play. I must say that the piano played versions are truly spectacular to listen to. I wish I could upload them here so you could hear them.

Samhain 02-26-2010 05:55 PM

Yeah Metroid is awesome. Used to scare me though.

Cure 02-27-2010 08:33 PM

The soundtrack to Sonic Rush is pretty mind blowing, this track especially.

Can't disagree with you on that one.

Krang 02-28-2010 03:10 AM

While we're on the subject of Sonic music...


Krutch 02-28-2010 03:19 AM

Silent Hill 2 had the BEST game soundtrack of all time, hands down. Not an opinion, but a FACT8)

Vivi 02-28-2010 05:40 AM

Maniac Mansion
Windwaker/Zelda in general
and ever since I saw the redubbed parody of TMNT (4) -- Zool.
Silent Hill - most def creepy as hell.

Zachatello00 02-28-2010 11:30 AM

Among the scores and scores of scores (phew) one that stands out in my mind is the music that plays while Donkey Kong fights King K Rool in DK Country.

Man, always loved FBZ. When I was knee-high, I used to imagine my own lyrics to that tune. Thankfully I've forgotten them.

Silent Hill has music?

Zachatello00 02-28-2010 02:41 PM

Let's not forget the ending/credit music for Super Mario World. I had lyrics for that one too...

Turo602 02-28-2010 09:45 PM

The ending/credits to Metroid Zero Mission that was really good music after a long good adventure.

metal gear series have some of my favorite themes

Kendamu 03-01-2010 09:56 AM

I don't have any particular overall favorites, but I tend to lean toward Megaman-esque and Street Fighter-esque Capcom music. Maybe some good examples would be a lot fo the music from the first Megaman X, Ryu's theme, Ken's theme, Guile's theme,the original Double Dragon theme, or the song from when Travis moves up in rank (with the 8-bit graphics) from No More Heroes 2. Stuff that has that kind of sound to it sounds really cool to me.

Damn, I want to play Diddy's Kong Quest now.

I love the music when they're wandering around on the map, it's kind of eerie nice.

Excellent choice, tho I prefer the Super Dimentio battle music. Super Paper Mario had some great music.

Some more:
Tales of Symphonia - Fatalize <3
Little King's Story - Soup, Sin, And Salvation (The entire soundtrack is full of lovely arrangements of some of the best music ever made)
Xenosage III - Limestone cave (Reminds me a lot of an orchestrated version of Tina's theme from Final Fantasy 3)
Shadow Hearts II - Battle vs Astaroth
Portrait of Ruin - Hail from the Past

Original TMNT Cartoon Fan 03-27-2010 05:03 AM

Sim City (SNES)
 
I like the Sim City music (SNES) when the town is still small.
