Favorite Game Songs/Soundtracks?

[Kcired]

If there's a thread like this please tell me, I looked around a couple times and didn't see one. I'm gonna list a few of my favorites over the years.

I know SC II is not out yet, but this theme is just so awesome... Perfect theme for the Terran in my opinion.


When I first got to Bowser as a kid I expected baby-ish music. Then this rock music starts playing... on a SNES game! I almost cried. It was beautiful.


This will, and always will, be my favorite Sonic-related music.


I need no explanation for this.



I'm a sucker for nostalgic stuff, too. I love 'Chill' and 'Fever' from Dr. Mario. I positively love the Hyrule Overworld theme from Link to the Past. Heck, Super Metroid had some kick-ass soundtracks, but you were too busy enjoying to game-play to notice.

As far as well-rounded original soundtracks out there, Ocarina of Time blows big time. Castlevania music is always pleasant for my ears too. Yeah, Final Fantasy music is nice overall, but I'd say there's basically only a few in each game that I'd call memorable. If anything, IV, VI, VII and VIII has the most of them.

And I'm a sucker for remixed soundtracks. Dissidia Final Fantasy and Super Smash Bros. Brawl easily stands as the best of the bunch.

As for a sole track that I could call my favorite... Hell, I think Clash of the Big Bridge. It's the most memorable for me when playing FFV, and probably what identifies me and my friends from the now defunct EXC.

Saria's Song and the Song of Storms are two of my favorites from Ocarina of Time. I kinda like its soundtrack. I really don't care for remixes/remakes of songs though. I disliked most of the remade songs in Brawl, ruined a lot of the originals for me.

One of the recent games I've played, Mario And Luigi 3, had a superb soundtrack. One of the songs I really liked was the Final Battle.



And I certainly can't go without mentioning Zelda music. My favorite music from TP would have to be Midna's Desperate Hour, and the Twilight Palace. From Ocarina of Time, it was the Temple of Time, Spirit Temple and Forest Temple music. From Majora's Mask, the one that practically takes the cake is the Final Hours. I'll post more when I find the links to the songs.

I have a couple that I love... Have a listen!

Power Hungry Fool from Fire Emblem:
I LOVE the sound of Harpsichords.


Ridley from Metroid (NES):
As preformed by Metroid Metal. Metal Mtroid songs? How epic is that?


Boss Battle 2 from Super Smash Bros. Brawl:
This is epic boss music.


And I love the Hyrule field theme from TP. But you all know what that sounds like, Right?


I can play the first part of that on the piano and do so whenever I get the chance. It's fun.

By far my favorite soundtrack is FFVIII
I'll put a few excerpts of it and other Final Fantasy as well as some HG/SS

Final Fantasy IV

I'll put in reasons later, I'm getting rather lazy.
Red Wings:


Theme of Love: Love song, there will be many of these from FF that I appreciate`


Battle with the Four Friends:


Battle 2:

Zeromus:

Final Fantasy V

Final Fantasy VI

Terra's theme: This one has such a calming effect, don't know how one couldn't like it


Devil's Lab: Sinister and Mechanical feel to it? I like it.


Aria Di Mezzo Carattere: I don't care if you like opera or not. It's a love song and I'm a sucker for them.


VI's "The Decisive Battle" brings a sense of Nostagia, not only because III for the SNES was my first ever Final Fantasy but it's killer erratic rhythms which are the first of many through out the game's Bosses.


"Battle to the Death" At first I was disappointed to hear this instead of "Decisive" but this led to even more love of the Bosses in the game. Again Erratic but stable rhythms and just an all out Eargasm.


Finally the coup de grace "Dancing Mad" only one villain in the history of gaming is worthy of this Final battle song and not to mention the longest Boss Music in Final Fantasy, the organ is usually used for hymns in your church but for a Manical Seraph who wants to destroy the world? I think he can have it too.

Final Fantasy VII

One-Winged Angel which including the Latin chanting glorifying a Mama's boy, and the killer instrumentals (which sound much better orchestrated but are very decent here as well)


Next is JENOVA and Jenova Absolute respectively



Those Who Fight Further/Still More Fighting/a whole array of other names: Epic. One of the best Game Rock songs I've heard.


Bombing Mission:


Valley of the Fallen Star:

Final Fantasy VIII

The Man with the Machine Gun: Arguably the best song in the game and ranking up the top in the series. Have a listen and have that eargasm take place.


Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec: I'm practically going through the whole soundtrack. Yes it's that win.


Waltz for the Moon:


Force Your Way: It seems I'm favoring most of the boss songs doesn't it? Yes I am, now listen to Uematsu-sama and deal


Eyes on Me: Absolutely beautifully done, for once I toned it down a notch and well, yeah it's a love song, and one of the best ones I've heard. Vocals by Faye Wong. This one gives me Nostalgia, mainly because it's me and my girlfriend's song that we mutually agreed on as well.


Love Grows: I have such a soft spot for these don't I? Yep. xD


Liberi Fatali: Latin Lyrics+Orchestration+Epic opening = Like? Indeed


Ultimecia which really is one of my favorite scores for a boss, very well arranged might I add. In order the songs are Premonition, The Legendary Beast, Maybe I'm a Lion, and The Extreme.

Final Fantasy IX

Battle 1: This is one of the only common enemy battle songs I can actually sit down and love.


Battle 2: Boss fight. 'Nuff said


Hunter's Chance: I didn't want to progress because I was so addicted to this song, I was sorry it had to end. Also Nostalgic


Melodies of Life: Oh look another vocalized song... A love theme at that. Putting English and Japanese Versions Respectively.

Also adding more are most Pokemon Boss battles, which bring a sense of Nostalgia (sadly I save my Master Balls from other games and use them before I can inhale the music)

Best of HG/SS

There are a ton more in that but I'll leave it there.
