Songs from videogames that are awesome.

Definately the opening theme of Oblivion. It's AWESOME!

 

[ShadowDude112]

Every song from Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game.

Two of the best (particularly the second one):

I would post every song from Jet Set Radio Future, but that would take way too long so I will just leave with the song I am currently digging.

Yay for Scott Pilgrim songs.

Old thread is oooooold. There is a new one of these at least once a month. Oh well, I don't want to not be one of the cool kids, so here I go:

Absolutely anything from Touhou. ZUN is a music god.

Spoiler: Touhou examples contained within

Absolutely anything from Braid. Sweet merciful crap.

Spoiler: Braid examples contained within

And of course, absolutely anything from Silent Hill. [sub]Here's a lullaby to close your eyes...[/sub]

Any discussion of Mega Man without mentioning CarboHydroM's remix is not a complete discussion of Mega Man.


And speaking of CarboHydroM and awesome music:

 

[CyanideSandwich]

"Still Alive" - Portal
That song from Halo. You know the one I mean.

 

[Rubashov]

Plenty of things here that I like, but here's something no one else has mentioned yet: Bastila Shan's theme from KotOR 1.

It fits the scenes in which it plays wonderfully, and it strikes a balance between departing totally from the music of the movies and being lifted directly from them.

Also, the main theme from Persona 3, "Burn My Dread". It's an awesome song, despite the horribly butchered English pronunciation.

I'm going to add my voice to the crowd yelling "Still Alive."

You have to love the otherworldly and yet constantly epic themes composed for the Myst series.

This thread needs a little bit of the almighty Dancing Mad: the most powerful piece of music ever created in the context of a video game. In my humble opinion, of course.

 

[Dango]

The most fitting songs are definitely:

Spoiler: Demon's Souls

Perfectly conveys the dark/epic tone of the game.

Spoiler: Ikaruga

Perfectly conveys the hectic nature of the game.

Spoiler: BlazBlue

Perfectly conveys the evil bastard that is Hazama.
