Great Video Game Music

« on: January 25, 2011, 05:14 PM »

Post it here. Here are some of my favorites to get things going:


BGMusic #44 - Illusion of Gaia - In The Earthen Womb	DQ \| by Aeva

Illusion of Gaia might have my favorite overall gaming soundtrack.


Lost Odyssey Battle Theme	DQ \| by Aeva

One of my favorite RPG battle themes.


Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts - Haunted Graveyard	DQ \| by Aeva


Best VGM 797 - Deathsmiles - Burning Halloween Town	DQ \| by Aeva


Chrono Cross Intro	DQ \| by Aeva

I remember listening to this the whole way through every time I played Chrono Cross.


Soul Blade intro	DQ \| by Aeva

Ditto for this. I could probably craft a thread exclusively with PS1 intros.


Pictionary Music (NES) - Title	DQ \| by Aeva

Fuck yeah. Pictionary.


Megaman II Music: Boss Fight	DQ \| by Aeva

Can't have a thread like this without Mega Man 2.

Award Winning i think, I know it was nominated for a category non-specific of video games:


Civilization 4 Theme	DQ \| by Aeva

Final Fantasy has some good stuff. Overall, the best collection is from FF6, but possibly the best single song is To Zanarkand from 10.


Final Fantasy VI - Terra's Theme (Orchestrated)	DQ \| by Aeva


Final Fantasy VI Symphonic Music - Coin Song	DQ \| by Aeva


Aria di Mezzo Carattere	DQ \| by Aeva


FFX To Zanarkand Intro	DQ \| by Aeva

And here is a recording of me on a nylon stringed classical guitar playing a shortened Suteki Da Ne from FFX. Recorded it 4 years ago from my PC mic. At the end you can hear my mouse sliding to turn off windows sound recorder, lol.

Lost Odyssey Battle Theme

I knew I recognized that artwork. Takehiko Inoue. My favorite manga artist and author, and of course in my opinion, the best.

I'd say I probably enjoyed Mass Effect 2 more, and possibly Red Dead Redemption, but I still love Bayonetta and it's still my tension relief when I feel like slaughtering hordes of things with weapons. Definitely the most fun I've had with a game of that style since the original DMC.
