My Scariest Video game monster thread seems to be popular (for a while) and i enjoy hearing your input, so........

Which video game has the best music?

Please post a link to a video or mp3 of your song.

I think either the entire Halo 3 OST, or

a little known game called Super Turrican:

Too Movie-esque stereotypical for my tastes.
Besides,you couldn't have possibly gone through all of that already,feast your ears!

Few more...

Turok 2
The River of Souls

Extreme G 2
Menu
Hydra Prime

(Also,I'm excluding Unreal music for a reason.)

Also, if your looking for a good video of your music, go thorough Garudoh's Volumes of game music

http://www.youtube.com/user/garudoh

EDIT:
I loved playing Super Ghouls n Ghosts on the Snes, till we sold it, it has amazing music to me.

You guys make me sad. You need Frank Klepacki.

He did the music for every C&C game and a couple others too.

They're awesome.

YES...

Although I haven't many videos of his stuff...

The least I can do I suppose is put up Hell March (In glorious Audiosurf!)

Deus Ex and Metal Gear Solid hands down.

Deus Ex has some amazing tracks and the MGS music is made by a couple pretty well known composers. (Same with the DX stuff, those guys did the Unreal music as well.) Listening to the MGS stuff in 5.1 surround sound is just epic.

Deus Ex: Hong Kong Streets

Deus Ex: Lebedev's Airfield

MGS3: Battle in the Base

Anything Jesper Kyd has ever done is immediately amazing. UT3 and Assassin's Creed are two of his absolute best. He makes epic music.

On a less grand note, the song "Glorious Morning" by Waterflame from the flash game 'Age of War' is easily the best song ever in an internet game. http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/91476

That reminds me, Waterflame did some music for Castle Crashers, which also has cool music

i prefer music like path to borealis if anyone finds a track like that please pm me

Post subject:  Re: Best Video Game music?

I am going to be Mr. Generic here and say Frank Klepacki, as well as whoever wrote the music for Half-life 1 & 2, though unfortunatly those tracks end quickly so most people wonder probably if there was any music at all. Some tracks for good ol' KKND2 were great, and so was the boss themes for Serious Sam.
The terran music for Starcraft is also notable, though not the best for a massive gunfight.

But that is for action games, for fantasy it is probably Majesty, which had the best medieval sounding music I have ever heard, even though there were only 5 tracks they never got old.

Well, lets see... I like

Still Alive - Mirror's Edge
Still Alive - Portal
Take Me Home - Prey (good soundtrack in general)
E1M1 - Doom 1 (The entire soundtrack to Doom 1 & 2 are supurb)
Entire Soundtrack - Quake 2
Entire Soundtrack - Full Halo series
Menu Music - Doom 3
Entire Soundtrack - Unreal and ORIGINAL Unreal Tournament

Hmm... Can't think of much more than that at the moment.

ANd sorry for lack of links, but I got crappy dial up internet that likes to disconnect whenever I try to do much of anything.

It struck me how few people give a damn about music in the unreal series. It had some great tunes: notably Go Down which has been remixed about twenty thousand times, and from the original Unreal there were loads of great tracks which no-one even knows the name of, the best of which is called Neve and was featured in the great map ONS-Araja.

</rant>

So yeah, VG music is really the most overlooked part of game design, but when it's done properly it really adds to the experience. Any one here tried 'UT2004 Troopers'? Great TC with great music. Try it out, I even had to add a couple of tracks to my iPod playlist. http://www.ut2004troopers.com

EDIT: Shit, their website died a few days ago! The mod can't go!

Post subject:  Re: Best Video Game music?

Actually,I've been avoiding putting up unreal music for the reason that I thought it was pretty obvious,I mean... Who here DOESN'T know about the awesome of the unreal series?

Although that Foregone Destruction remix was bad-ass,awesome find Drake.
