Title: Best Soundtrack in a game?
Post by: JonathanSodalis on March 16, 2007, 03:13:01 PM
Alright...

FINAL FANTASY X... wonderful music in there, some haunting themes.  I listen to it while I work.

FINAL FANTASY XII... not a terrific story, but wonderful music.

FFXII has a great story and I think NBA Ballers Phenom had a good soundtrack

Drakengard, unexpectedly, have a very nice soundtrack. Especially the English theme song, Growing Wings. It's so.. touching.
Kingdom Hearts series have pretty nice BGMs too. Yoko Shimomura did a good job.
Legend of Mana has nice BGMs. I can't stop listening to them.

Basically, RPG rules my world of game music. xD

I liked FFX's soundtrack. It brings a really nostalgic feeling to me. Also, i like that Rammstein song in the beginning. Makes blitzball look awesome.

I didn't really like any Final Fantasy soundtrack after 6. There are a few good songs here and there, but 6's was flawless.

Nobuo Uematsu is THE GENIUS!

I am also enjoying Vagrant Story's HUGE soundtrack! (Thanks, Silverline!)

But no doubt that Frostwork Studios's first game will have some of the best music I have listened to in my life! <3

The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind.

Everything about that game is great, though.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a slew of "ZOMG FINAL FANTASY SEVEN!!!!!!1!!!!!11111"s yet.

Because it was mediocre at best.

The only song that was quite good appeared in FF9 as well. ::)

My favorite response from someone when I asked why FF7's soundtrack is so amazing was "Because he wrote it in less than a year!" LOL. That's actually a pretty long time to write a score.

Now that you guys mention, the GTA series - and even that lousy-but-still-good SCARFACE - have a cool feature that Morrowind and Oblivion also have: the ability to add your own MP3! I would love to add this feature to a game that i made, anyday!

People like you make it hard for composers to get work. You and your "mp3s".

Holkeye: That doesn't necessary mean to not put any soundtrack in the game... all the titles i mentioned have their OST, plus a large hit parade selection (that goes for GTA and SCARFACE).
... i still HEAR the music from Snes titles like Actraiser, Terranigma, DragonView (Drankken)and genesis/megadrive Splatterhouse, and Langrisser 2,YuYu Hakusho,Y's 3, sourcerous kingdom... :P

wow...looks like I'm the only one here who can openly say that I love most of the music in FF7.  One Winged Angel is THE SINGLE BEST track I've heard in a video game.  The battle music tracks are also really good.

I haven't played many games but I've heard the music from a lot of them, and thus far FF7 still ranks top in my list.

"Lord Of The Castle" from Kingdom Hearts: RE Chain Of Memories. Wonderful music. Truely epic.

The soundtrack from the first Wild Arms is almost perfect, and the remixed songs in Alter Code:F are only better. The other Wild Arms' music isn't as good though, for some reason.

Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, the first area has some of the best music ever. I also love the Chrono Cross music, and Seiken Densetsu has a few good tracks in there.
TimeSplitters 2 also has a few good tracks, when you play the arcade multi I love some of the tracks, and Gunz has one or two...I like the Ocarina and Baton songs from OoT and WW, rocked, some did.

Anyone know of a game that has like sort light tech-no to it?

The famous fight music for FFVII. Me likee rock. I also like Yami Enzeru in FFVII because it sounds cool and brought out the evil. I rarely listen to music other than the ones on consoles, not handhelds (that includes all emus, not just handheld emus). I thought this was made just out of the Chrono Cross topic where they talked about how Chrono Trigger (or Cross, I forgot) had like the best music.
