Title: Video Game Music
Post by: Paladin on November 13, 2009, 09:32:43 PM
Yes, I think everyone in the area of forums play video games. Most of you probably like the music in the games. What is your favorite music from a game and what is the game?

One Winged Angle: Final Fantasy

Pretty much any Final Fantasy music except Chocobo Mods is great. Black Water is my favorite, but that's technically from Advent Children.

The soundrack for HoMM III, however, contains my favorite video game music. I don't think it even has a name, but the theme music for the Necropolis is hauntingly beautiful.

My sister and I became addicted to the music from Shadow of the Colossus when we were playing it.

Hey Halo, I'm real happy for you, and Imma letchu finish, but the music that Kratos listens to while fighting is by far the most epic videogame music of all time. OF ALL TIME.

Might & Magic VI has some of the best music I've heard, although admittedly my experience is limited. The music while walking north toward White Cap and the Castle Ironfist music are especially memorable.

Final Fantasy VII music is amazing.  I like One Winged Angel for it's epic, final boss feel (those kind of songs attract me  :)).  I also like Supporting Me from Sonic Adventure 2: Battle.  Endless Possibility from Sonic Unleashed is a good, motivational song, as well.

Im a fan of Lost Oddesy and its music which was some of the best orchistrated game music ive ever heard. But I think my fave is The Elder Scrolls Morrowind which has an amazing soundtrack for only being 30 minutes of music.

I think you're handing out too many threads these days.  :D

I like the music for Halo... you know, the opener that goes "oooooh.... oooooooh ooooooooh." REALLY beatiful.

I've handed out two.
and the Halo theme song has a guitar solo in it. I've never heard it on the game, but I heard it on my friend's Zune. it's pretty epic.

EDIT: three. this one, with a meme that's amazing. the movie one, when Stamp totally got off topic, and Schaef continued it further. and the football one, where Alex_Olijar pointed out Peterson's headbutt. sooo amazing. but yes, perhaps a few too many.

Some classic ones:

FF8 opening theme (and some other music throughout the game)
Parasite Eve
One Winged Angel
KH2 opening theme
Heroes Of Might And Magic 2
Wipeout (my first introduction to techno)

That's all that's coming to mind right now.

I believe Steve Vai did the guitar solos in the Halo songs.

I believe you also handed one to prof Underwood recently. Haha sorry if I came across rude or anything I just thought it was kind of funny.

Shame on me for letting this thread go unattended for so long.

Mega Man II (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFKtYCcMWT4#)
Jet Force Gemini (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_2yaIZeUR0#)
Goldeneye (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tekAyLxiZtI#)
Chrono Trigger (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QufOb0e6Mns#)
Mega Man X (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYdSLaVu9p4#)
probably top my list.  Honorable mention to the other Mega Man titles, Castlevania series, and Ninja Gaiden series.  Yes, I'm old school.

I also recommend the Music of Video Games series on Youtube by Garudoh.  The list is something like 500 strong now.
