Share your favorite video game music!

Hope this belongs here. lol

Anyway, I thought that we should start a topic of some of our favorite video game tracks. It's simple. Post a link of a favorite video game track, and a short paragraph about it. Post as many as you like, but only one video per post, so they're easier to read.

I'll start things off here



Not to be confused with the Metallica song, this track is played during the battle against Jill Valentine, trying to save her from Wesker's grip. If there's a track that really conveys heightened emotions while still setting a great battle theme, it's this track.

I could play that all day nad never get sick of it.

Infact I've been playing it all my life and havent gotten sick of it.

You know shit's going down when you hear this.

Just a few of them.















There are plenty more themes I could add to this list, but I think I'll let AZX post some too as we share a lot of favorite game music.

"Just a few."

He says as he posts 7. haha.

Yeah XD. I have so many themes I consider to be right up with these 7.

The first thing that stands out is that crazy bass line. I love it.

I know there's a lot of other good kick ass music made by Capcom like Wily's castle from Megaman 2, but unlike Strider Pent, I posted one.

At any cost, this is just one theme that defines boss themes in Resident Evil 5. The fight against Wesker on the boat. He doesn't know when to give up, does he? He runs and dodges in sort of a Jumper effect. The first time beating him was a pain in the ass! And oh, gotta love the lines:

"You're merely postponing the inevitable!"

"So much chaff!"

"Is that all you have?"

The best part is, they're putting this song, remixed, and at full awesomeness in Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 PLUS, Wesker is playable!

AH! There you are!

How could someone not love this title screen? It's one of my favorites.

And so many more...

Wow. I ask for "one video per post" and I get a middle finger from both admins. Thanks a lot, ya jerks.
Ha ha. Just kidding... kind of.

Anyway, more music.



I've always had a lot of respect for Yoko Shimomura. She's right up there with Nobuo Uematsu and Koji Kondo. This track really stood out from the game.

I'm looking forward to what she'll be bringing to the table in Final Fantasy Versus XIII.

In all seriousness, I didn't read that one per post. I believe it's not against the rules to do so anyway

Would you rather one post with 7 videos in it, or 7 posts made by the same person in a row?

Multiple posts. I wanted to prevent this topic from having way too many videos per page. That and I wanted to drag this out as long as possible.

Moving on.



This track can be associated with the battles against Mir. Even though several of the fight scenarios and the emotions associated with said scenes are different, the track works well with them.

A desperate struggle. A battle to protect the world. Saving a tormented soul.

Music that comes from Gust games can always be expected to be good.

Damn you Jaymonius for getting me hooked on the Atelier series. (Youtube LPer who does RPGs)



Literally translates to "Nameless Light"

Epic final boss music is epic indeed. ^.^

Come on guys, don't leave me as the only poster of music here. Broaden your mind a bit! Share something that you think is worthy of being on a list of best video game music! Come on people!
...Someone?
...Anyone?

Well I suppose that I can still share more.



Mega Man 10 was definitely a game in which it took some time for certain tracks to grow on you. The biggest exception to the rule was this track. One of the best tracks, if not the best track in the game. This song is so upbeat and energetic, especially around the hit at 0:47.

Too bad Solar Man looks like Top Man and Fire Man's gay love child.

Well I posted seven already. But anyway, Mega Man 10 really did have a great soundtrack. My favorite one of those is Strike Man though and then Nitro Man. Moving along...



This theme goes with the best chapter in Sly history in my opinion. It plays at the absolute best times besides all the times when you fight regular pirates. The theme is altogether just excellent and is definitely one of my favorites.

Mega Man had such great music.

I hear ya! I didn't like Megaman 10's music as much, but the other games, including the X series, is entertaining. Megaman 2 anyone?

Megaman 2 had great music.

I rather enjoyed Mega Man 10's music. Even more so than Mega Man 9 which had a great soundtrack as well. The best one is X2 IMO.

Megaman 9 Tornado man stage was always stuck in my head. Splashwoman was good too.
