Music from games that you've checked out

Chrono Trigger sound track

Wait, WHAT? WHERE did you get that, and where do I have to go to find it?

It's pretty common. Most soundtracks go through cycles, they get released with the game, get discontinued, rereleased etc... not sure where in the cycle it is, but the FF Chronicles version is still probably out. Best to check any importing online store, particularly gamemusic.com

I have loads of tracks from metroid prime which i listen to a lot. also, the intro movie thing at the beggining of wipeout pulse on the psp is awesome but i don't know who it's by.

 

[Anarchemitis]

I really, really, really, really, really, REALLY want the orange box soundtrack.

I was intrigued by the music, then this [http://www.visualwalkthroughs.com/halflife2/anticitizenone1/hl2-2005-10-11-15-36-11-46.jpg] scene [http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=M3Xd85-8_kA&feature=related] hit me. I wanted it, and I wanted it NOW.

did you look up The Faunts after completing Mass Effect?

Yep. Good song, but the instrumental segments are too long. I also looked up GTA Vladiostok bands. I am currently hammered on the opening them to Tales of Vesperia by Bonnie Pink.

I did check out the Faunts after Mass Effect. Though I quickly realized that M4 Part II was their only song that I really liked.

M4 has to be one of the greatest songs played during the credits i've ever heard. I actually would just let the credits for Mass Effect loop in the background and listen. Usually if I hear the song on a game I tend to use the net to find them. When B. Katamari first came nothing was online but recently found that most of the soundtrack has hit the net (Sayonara Rolling Star is paticalarily awesome).

I also have to say that Zombie game/movie end themes are usually very good. Justified by Drea (Dead Rising) still plays almost daily while reading stuff online.

Same here.

Oh goodness what a piece of art that is to me. I LOVE the orchestral version, and the Crisis core version deemed "the worlds enemy". Listened to it countless times and it never gets tiresome. Yea FF music, hell JRPG music in general seem to always be great. Although when I want to break away from the amazing RPG music, I listen to the tracks from the wipeout games, wipeout pulse music just RULES.

 

[Beerish]

Yeah, i checked out Michael Hoenig's solo synth work, and Tangerine Dream after I heard his soundtracks. I also tried to get into Masato Makamura's band, Dreams Come True, but eh...J-Pop.

 

[Ares Tyr]

Of course, I found a few bands I like from Guitar Hero and Rock Band (namely All That Remains and Senses Fail). Other than that, the Tony Hawk franchise has always had fantastic music and it really helped to broaden my horizens in the underground hip hop genre. I'll also say SSX helped me fall in love with DJ music and electronica.

 

[Aginor27]

While i don't recall their song from Guitar Hero 2, I've become a big fan of Valient Thorr.

 

[NeedAUserName]

Guitar Hero 1/2/3 and Tony Hawks Underground 1/2. Looked up the sound track for them on google. Bought alot of the songs on iTunes.

Frank Kelpacki(sp?) after playing the original C&Cs. My favourite of his is 'Hell March'. It's just so badass to listen to.

Frank Klepacki.. Awesomeness embodied.

HM2 is one of the most epic soundtrack titles I've ever heard. I listen to it while I do housework and arbitrary things on the PC. That's how good it is.

By the way, he's doing the soundtrack (or at least part of it, not sure) for RA3. And he's bringing out a HM3 for it as well!

Another one I'm really into is the Halo 2 soundtrack, the whole thing. Epic music like that has a place in my playlist anyday.

I'm a big "Myth" fan and after hearing the roaring of cellos every time I start Myth 2: Soulblighter I decided to look up the music online. Since the game is comparatively old by today's standards it was a lucky hit I found the songs on youtube. Here is my favourite from Myth: The fallen lords

And again on piano, although I find this version much better

The links I posted are to a song called "The Siege of Madrigal." After much wikipedia browsing I realized that the company responsible for the divine substance known as Myth is Bungie. Yes, that bungie. Before it was Master Chief's Bungie the company put out the Myth series and the undeclared predecessor to Halo, Marathon. In a kind of homage move Bungie made the song unlockable in Halo leading many Halo fanboys to proclaim "LOL wtf's 'Myth?' this song is from Haaaaaaalo nubs!"

Another great soundtrack is the diversity of music coming out of Sid Meier's Civilization series. Many of the games, when viewed from the apropriate hight, have a very nice world music soundtrack. If you can't find a torrent for some of this stuff you can always steal it from the games' music folder.

Castle Crashers, it's got an amazing soundtrack.
