Best music you've ever heard in a game series?

[CaptainKoala]

World of Goo.

Finally, I'm the first to mention this.


Which reminds me Alan Wake is a damn good game.

 

[AuronFtw]

Final Fantasy 6/7/8/10 and, oddly enough, Warcraft 2. Both the human and orc themed tracks were excellent, and the discs contained a "hidden" disco song at the end (which was the worst song, but it was funny anyway).

 

[-Seraph-]

For me, it's the Final Fantasy series by default. Game music takes up about 90% of my music library. About 40% of that is Final Fantasy, and all of it is good. That's no small thing.

Pretty much this on everything, my music library has a massive chunk of it dedicated to game music as well.

Anything from Nobuo Uematsu is just brilliant. My second pick though would go to Diasuke Ishiwatari, best known for doing the Guilty Gear and Blazblue sound tracks. That shit is all sorts of awesome and some of his songs have become those ones you just never get tired of listening to.

Spoiler: like my favorite one

 

[MikailCaboose]

Tough choice, but I'm gonna go with Touhou. (Google the wiki if you want to know more)

Damn, ninja'd! Well, I hear U.N Owen was Her? and raise you :
and while it's not an official game, it is still Touhou:

I thought we all decided it was the moment you ride into Mexico in Red Dead Redemption?

 

[Sakurazaki1023]

The Blazblue OST.

Oh hell yes.

Guilty Gear had great music, but some of the Blazblue songs blow it away.

I also loved the music in Baten Kaitos, Armored Core: For Answer, Persona 3, Persona 4 (any SMT game really), and Lost Odyssey.

Spoiler

Now that I think about it, Baten Kaitos wins in my book...

 

[Slenn]

Legend of Mana! Legend of Mana! Legend of FREAKING MANA!

Especially the boss battle theme which has a crazy rock theme goin' on in the middle of this light hearted game. It also had a lot of epic music in each area that made you feel like you were on a crazy adventure.

 

[CosmicZombie]

You have to burn the rope ending song.

 

[Fidelias]

Can't choose one...
But I WILL give you a list!!!
Ordered from best to worst...
Edit: I changed my mind about the order, here's my new order.

1.Golden Sun
A remix of one of the most awesome game songs of all time...

Spoiler: Saturos Battle Theme remix

and because it deserves two,another remix.

Spoiler: Jenna's Battle Theme remix

2.Halo

Spoiler: Rock Anthem for Saving the World

3.Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core

Spoiler: The Summoned

4.Assassins Creed(First one had the best music)

Spoiler: Chase

5.Knights of the Old Republic (What WASN'T good in that game?)
The music on youtube doesn't really do it justice...

Spoiler: Sith Main Theme

6.Half Life 2

Spoiler: Sector Sweep

I think that's it...

 

[Siuki]

The Halo series, Team Fortress 2(Valve games), Nintendo games, and Killing Floor. Most JRPG's have excellent soundtracks too. A good portion of my Ipod is the Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Soundtrack.

 

[ilspooner]

I love most of the music in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky. Its so good!

 

[Rouse]

Portal, Still Alive. Best song in a videogame ever.

x2.


and I'll leave this here, not because I think it's the best song out there but I just thought about it a few seconds ago and it is pretty cool:

 

[Sinclair Solutions]

I think the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time just has so many classics that I would hate myself for not calling it the best. Sure, I would like to say Bioshock for "Cohen's Masterpiece" or Red Dead Redemption for Jose Gonzalez's "Far Away", but Ocarina of Time just has great song after great song. Song of Storms, Soria's Song, Zelda's Lullaby, all perfect.

 

[OmegaAlucard777]

For me. Its Mass Effect. Its just all epic.

 

[Blood Countess]

I am going with the Mass Effect series, the Suicide Mission being the best song.

 

[Hader]

I would say the Total War series, but only the OST composed by Jeff van Dyck for Rome Total War and Medieval II Total War. The music there was just damn good, fit everything perfectly. I like plenty of other soundtracks though, so it's hard to say I have one single favorite, but this is definitely up there.

 

[bl4ckh4wk64]

M4 Part 2, 'nuff said. Awesome music video too.

Edit: Also anything made by Jack Wall and Sam Hulick. Which would be the rest of the Mass Effect songs...

 

[dolfan1304]

Command and Conquer Red Alert 3 has to have some of the best songs.

And lets not forget
