Best Soundtrack in a game?

[JonathanSodalis]

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.

PFFFFFFFFF. GUILTY GEAR XX FTW.

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

Maple storys music is great, but not so great, i listen to other music while i mod it all up but the music was well composed and i think its okay, I think NFS underground has a cool St also

[JAP]

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.

[Holkeye]

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.

[Arwym]

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

[Blizzard]

I loved Secret of Mana's Soundtrack and Terranigma's Soundtrack.

[Morrowind]

The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind.

Everything about that game is great, though.

[Tsunokiette]

CHRONO TRIGGER

<3's all around

[haloOfTheSun]

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

[Holkeye]

Because it was mediocre at best.

[Blizzard]

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

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

[haloOfTheSun]

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.

[Ericmor]

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!

[Holkeye]

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

[biohazard]

Go peddle your midis somewhere else 

[Holkeye]

lol. peddle.

[SexualBubblegumX]

Ragnarok Online I guess.

[Ericmor]

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...

[Karo Rushe]

  All of the Above that had been Mentioned.

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.
