Poll: Does anyone buy OSTs?

[noogai18]

StarCraft, bits of the Halo ones, and TimeSplitters: Future Perfect Campaign AND Multiplayer Map OSTs.

It's very good background music.

There's no "sometimes" option? I buy some OSTs on iTunes. I've bought the soundtrack for Bad Company, the Mercenaries 2 commercial song, and "Still Alive", though I want to get the Uncharted soundtrack.

 

[cordeos]

i have all 3 Hitman soundtracks and the Assassins creed 2 soundtrack. I have a few others, but they are from when it was easy to get game soundtracks just by poking around in the files.

 

[Huupertti]

FF dissidia OST and chorno cross OST

 

[Anarien]

I have many movie scores, TV/anime OSTs, and many more game OSTs and single tracks I've downloaded. My most recent acquisitions are tracks I bought from Amazon from the Psychonauts soundtrack. I've been listening to the Silent Hill 2 OST a lot lately though. Just an old favorite.

My ringtone is OCRemix' Voices of the Lifestream album version of "Cosmo Canyon" and I have an alternate one that is Game Over's metal version of the Super Mario theme.

My favorite movie score though, is probably Jurassic Park.

 

[Starke]

I don't remember how many I've actually bought seperatly, aside from Star Trek 6 and Van Helsing's soundtracks. But, I've specifically picked up several collector's editions (Morrowind, Titan Quest, Crysis, Two Worlds, ect.) for the included soundtracks.

 

[Beatrix]

Bought separately? No.
Spent extra to get a version of the game that included it? Yes.

 

[Dark Knifer]

I could download them for free if I wanted but I don't often listen to soundtracks. I'm not saying the music is bad, I'm just saying I'd rather listen to my own music.

Does anyone buy OSTs from video games/movies that have really good music. I just recently bought Fallout 3 soundtrack because I like the jazz music. I also have the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack and to make things nerdier for me I have the Lost Woods(Zelda: Ocarina of Time) as my ringtone.

Can anyone top that?

I admit that I usually have to download game OSTs, since many of them are impossible to find, but still. Here's my attempt.

My iTunes library is just under 35 gigs. About 17 of those are game soundtracks. If you count my movie and anime soundtracks, it's just over 23 gigs.

My phone has ringtones for the Steel Samurai song from the Phoenix Wright games, the Crash Bandicoot theme, the Chocobo theme, Morning Sunlight (a symphonic mix of a Chrono Trigger song), the Mario Theme, Jacinto Prison (from the first Gears of War: surprisingly, one of the best soundtracks I've heard), and the version of Still Alive that plays over the radios in Portal. For text alerts, I have the Zelda "Item get" tone, the sound that plays when you uncover a clover in Okami, the opening notes to Pac-Man, "It'sa me, Mario!", "Objection!", and "Hey, listen!"

Currently set as my tones are Brand New Day from Dr Horrible's Sing-Along Blog and, for receiving texts, the Final Fantasy victory fanfare. Oh, and my dad's special ringtone is Kefka's Theme. Final Fantasy VI players should know the implications there...

Yes, I am a hopeless nerd. Proud of it!

And for the record, the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack is, surprisingly enough, one of my favorite OSTs of all time. Beautiful and epic music.

I recommend trying to get a hold of the OSTs for Chrono Trigger and the Halo games (minus Halo Wars: that was by someone else). Also, check out OCRemix: they make a lot of really great remixes and orchestrations of game soundtracks. Make sure to get their Chrono Symphonic album: some of the most beautiful orchestrated music you will ever, ever hear.

This Thread is 'Does anyone buy music anymore?' in disguise.

 

[Dys]

Sometimes. I tend to go out of my way to buy special editions that come with nice boxes and OSts

Fuck...
I guess you win then...

By the way nice taste in music.
..... OBJECTION!

[IckleMissMayhem]

Do I have them? Yes.
Did I pay for them? No.

 

[Xeros]

If they have kick-ass original music, hell yeah. I bought the Sonic Soundtracks from 1-S&K, and the Syphon Filter Soundtracks from 1 and 2.

Your honor, this objection is outrageous. Unless he was objecting to my "Hey, listen!" ringtone. I could understand that one.

And thanks: you as well. There are far too few people that appreciate orchestral soundtracks like Galaxy.

 

[wynnsora]

I do, but usually anime or video game ones that are either really good, rare now or discontinued. I have anime music from some older anime's and even a copy of the Crystal Chronicles and Skies of Arcadia OSTs.

 

[erbkaiser]

I have bought the following game OSTs:
-The Longest Journey
-Trine
-Sin Episode(s): Emergence
-Stubbs the Zombie
-C&C Red Alert 3 (came with the game)
-Psychonauts

and a few others I can't now recall. I also ripped a few OSTs myself from the game files.

As for video and film OSTs, too many to mention. Mainly some of the good compilations such as Forrest Gump, Watchmen, that Beatles movie from a while back, The Boat that Rocked, etc.. And a load of anime tunes, mainly from films or OVAs.

 

[FireFly90]

I listen to OSTs but i don't really go to the trouble of buying them. Right now i'm listeng to the opening theme to 'Elfen Lied'. Maybe if i had more money i would buy them.

 

[Cyberjester]

I live in Aus so I use the excuse that it's impossible to buy OST's here to download them all. I buy when I can, but import prices are.. Well, I'm still broke from the last one.

Currently have the Portal soundtrack (it's just awesome), Fallout3, Neotokyo and a few songs from other games. Midnight Club, GTA something, etc.

From movies? More than I can count. Resident Evil and XXX style movies are good places to find new music. Anime like Ghost in the Shell and Bleach have some sweet tunes in them.. Soundtracks are awesome.

 

[DanielDeFig]

i have the Sountrack for: KH I & II, the FF games ive played (VII,IX,X,XII), Dark Cloud series, and a few other random ones including mario 64
