Is this not the greatest videogame song EVER?

[Lulzovich]

Fallout 3 - I Don't Want to Set the World On Fire

Well, considering it's not an original soundtrack then also:

Madden NFL 10 - Painkiller (Not that I liked the game, though)

 

[MetricFurlong]

Too much FF music in here.

I'm just really glad no one's mentioned "Eyes on Me" so far...

Haven't been following this thread very well have you?

I cried when I first heard this at the end of FFVIII.

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if your're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming

Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

 

[Hurr Durr Derp]

*SNIP*

Either that wasn't there when I posted that message, or I'm starting to suffer from dementia. I honestly don't know.

Either way, it's a terribly overrated song.

 

[Jennacide]

Shut up. It was in a game and it has words.

Nice choice, seems like so few people have heard of DJ Shadow. My two choices from games proper are both opening movie songs; Exceeding Love from Suikoden 3 and Scars of Time from Chrono Cross. I still tear up during both of them.

Exceeding Love

Scars of Time

 

[OmegaXzors]

You all fail!


Is the best song ever in a video game.

Then,

 

[Rewold]

I'll just put this here.

my uncle moved to canada and i inherited his katana

That's a great superhero origin story right there.

Also:

HAHA!

yea...

or supervillain.

MUAHAHAHA

I don't care about sonic I really don't. I love FF music I really do, it's probably music that I'll hear til I die but this, This right here is the most epic final fight music ever:

Well, I have quite a few favorites when it comes to video game music. But the one that comes to mind for me is this:

[unoleian]

It's good for you and me!

 

[auronvi]

I can't chose and I can't add to what has already been shown. I love all those classic final fantasy songs. I went to the live orchestra for my birthday and it was soooo amazing.

Practically crying listening to Not Alone atm... lol. Eyes On Me gets me every time too. I know all the words. I have to hit my piano again and start learning these again. I used to know all of Zanarkand. I could probably re-learn it in no time.

Thank you escapists! If I come up with something I will post it.

 

[auronvi]

Found one...

bards tale is just... oh my god... i LOVE it.

anyway, it has to be from a game, an it has to have lyrics.

let the game songs begins.

I loved Bard's Tale too. The KNucklavee song was great as well...

Knucleavee oh knuckleavee
You're evil and wicked and heinous
Who could it be who set you free
He really must be an anus

Great game. I can't believe I lost my copy

Eyes on Me is definatly one of my top favorites. I always somehow smile whenever I think about it. These are some of my favorites (yes there all pretty much related or have been said before. )
(These are probably the ones to follow the format of having lyrics)
(Then some other awsome ones. :>)

While Mass Effect 1 had a very bland soundtrack Mass Effect 2 actually had music good enough for me to buy.

That music gives me goosebumps even when I hear it on my crappy little laptop speakers... I think its safe to say that was my favorite ever scene in a game, just so so epic and powerful.

 

[ZehGeek]

Forgot this one:

[Flauros]

The entire silent hill soundtrack. Not kidding.





Just a few off the top off my head


Edit: I win the thread!
