I was curious as to what type of battle music you guys prefer in games, the more traditional orchestral music, or the more rock-type music.

I prefer orchestral music. To me, it makes the battle seem more....natural.
With rock music it feels to chaotic and wild.

Orchestral.

Battle music I write myself is orchestral as well, here's one of my battle themes:

Is I’m the only one, I’m the only one."

I'd say rock. Orchestral would belong more in the ending or an emotional part of a scene. And yes, occasionally a battle, but more like a boss one.

Guns don't kill people. Magic missiles do.
I'd go for some crazy-heavy rock-techno battle music.  Makes for an amazing soundtrack.

What if the whole game was crazy-heavy rock-techno music, even the slow dramatic scenes?  Maybe that'd be cool, if only because it's never been done before.

I voted rock, but I belive the answer everybody here can agree on is...
both. And then some.
My battle music is a combination of orchestral and rock along with some techno sounds.
We know this is what works best because Final Fantasy uses it!

I agree. It really depends on the nature of the game. I voted for Rock, but if the situation called for some kind of mellow dramatic music and some kind of crazy heavy metal music played, I'd be scared.

Bridget is SOOOOOOOOOOO kewl XD
