Your favorite video game music

n/t, obviously.  Whether or not this has been posted before, I decided on a whim to make it.  Post LINKS, please - do NOT embed videos.

Okay, so first off, just generic background music:

Terran 3 (Starcraft)
Hell March (Red Alert 1)
GF Tension (Metroid Prime 3)
Glittertown (Wario Land: Shake It! / The Shake Dimension)
Buoy Base Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)
Diabolical Adrenaline Guitar (Half-Life)
Human 4 (Warcraft 3: The Frozen Throne)

That should be a good start.

lol DAMNIT FFVII was totally what I was going to link.. Easily the best.  Only game I've ever bought the soundtrack for... so many good songs.  Anyway, Cid's Theme is my pick

 

also, hahah Contra, my brother traded my favorite game (Punch Out) to a friend for Contra, and I was pissed (@ like 4), but then as I grew older I loved it

haha I know right?  I've seriously just listened to a whole bunch of FFVII tunes for the past hour... goosebumps, great memories, and nothing accomplished other than listening to awesome music and reading some comments on other people's memories

Such a moving game... poor Aeris

Don't know any of the song names and I'm too lazy to find out though

A lot of the Jak stuff is excellent (Especially J3 and TLF)....:

  • "Tower Bombs": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUYwwSXjh00&feature=related
  • "Blast Bots": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlySN9kgJPc&feature=related

  • "A Captain's Sacrifice": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnkAmFyvSOs&feature=related

and Myst will always have a special place in my heart (particularly Revelation and End Of Ages, although that's more for music than gameplay-- Exile was better for the actual game).....

  • "Prison Level": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YydBkk6_cMI&feature=related
  • "Nearest Island" and "Leaving Spire": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph0DX8fLFxI&feature=related

but you just have to sit back and recognize the sheer perfection of Metroid:

Yes, indeed.

But also Warzone 2100 was an actual fever-inducing mantra:

Great music so far, guys!

Alright, now for some boss music (WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS):

Vs. The Shake King (Wario Land: Shake It!/The Shake Dimension)
The Eon Sanctum (Boss Battle 2) (Smash Bros. Brawl)
Wielder of the Dark Prognosticus (Count Bleck Battle) (Super Paper Mario)
Salazar, the Fallen Castellan (Resident Evil 4)
The Final Battle (Resident Evil 4)
Wind of Madness (Resident Evil 5)
The Dark Heart of Phaaze (Vs Dark Samus) (Metroid Prime 3)
K. Rool Duel (DKC2 - Diddy's Kong Quest)

That'll do for now.

Buoy Base Galaxy (Super Mario Galaxy)

YES! Super Mario Galaxy has awesome music, but that one it particular is just amazing. I really wish we would get a US release of that soundtrack. Why does Club Nintento Japan get all the goos stuff and we just get a bunch of greeting cards and posters?

Anyway:

I'm not a huge fan of the Halo games, but I think their music it pretty amazing. And as for Still Alive, how can you not love that song?

EDIT: I almost forgot. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has some awesome music:

All of the music in that game was great, but these are the ones I'd recommend:

Live and Learn: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9zZus_1_ag

City Escape: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6NaZrPQGfYty

Theme of Sonic: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2FD92_lYGg

Theme of Eggman: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTCVtDV6Yzc

Prison Lane: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Vo4aVSCzcM

Nothing beats the Super Mario Theme Song. It's a classic and it's my all time favorite!

Yeah, I managed to download the soundtracks for DMC3/4 from the site called the Devil's Lair.  Simply awesome.
