The most memorable sound track from a game?

[Riddle78]

Gothic. Great game,greater soundtrack.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0qT6VeRcac And this song plays while you're INSTALLING THE GAME!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAmWst_7Vj8&feature=related While wandering around the wildernss.

Also,Final Fantasy VIII.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qe45YhKQEQU The Legendary Beast,which plays after you get hit by Shockwave Pulsar.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HrEMVNkiok&feature=related Only a Plank Between One and Perdition,which plays during the game's two toughest boss battles.

Also,I can't get enough of Total Annihilation's opening cinematic. It has amazing music,and the narrator does an amazing job of hooking me.

I like each soundtrack because of how well they were composed and written. Each song fits its assigned place perfectly,and sets the mood perfectly. These soundtracks are,in my opinion,the best in the world.

For me, it's probably the soundtracks to all three Spyro games on PSX. I swear, I can remember just about every track from Spyro: Year of the Dragon. I know/remember way too much about that one in particular.

The Kingdom Hearts series also has such memorable music to me. Tracks like Tension Rising, Arabian Dream, and The 13th Dilemma are quite memorable.

Cave Story also has an incredible soundtrack.

 

[WillCourt]

No mention of Okami? Its soundtrack stood out more than its graphics personally.

 

[Numb1lp]

I really liked the music from Enter the Matrix, even if it was just the same thing as the movies.

 

[me and my dog]

Halo soundtrack by far. I still have the halo theme from halo combat evolved in my head.

 

[Branovices]

I don't know what would be the best or most artistically sophisticated... but I know the most memorable for me will always be Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. I still find myself humming different tunes from that game.

In second place I would have to say Sonic II, another one I find myself humming all the time.

 

[Shock and Awe]

The entire Halo Franchise has music that is better than just about every other game out there if you ask me.

Spoiler: Halo: Combat Evolved

Spoiler: Halo 2

Spoiler: Halo 3

Spoiler: Halo 3: ODST

Spoiler: Halo: Reach

All of Halo's.
Especially the Halo 2 theme.

 

[TheSkaAssassin]

Kingdom Hearts 1-2, it's the only 2 games where I've bought the actual OST.

Bust I also liked Never Forget, the menu theme from Halo 3.

 

[imnot]

This is great to.

 

[DazBurger]

I gotta say Halo. Find me a gamer who haven't heard and remember the Halo main theme.

 

[ColdFire75]

The stuff on the TF2 menu is SO catchy :-D

[ReaperzXIII]

Jet Set Radio Future, the songs go so well with the game

 

[Grey_Focks]

Every time this thread occurs I post this same video. For good reason, too. Halo 2. Mjolnir Mix. I don't care if you hate Halo or not, you have to appreciate this piece of art.

The game might not have been too good but FF Mystic Quest; probably one of the best soundtracks ever ;example:

 

[Deathkingo]

Brutal Legend!

Driving around in your awesome demon car with the apocalypse raining down upon you and power metal playing in the background? Can't get much better than that.

You win

 

[Wolf Devastator]

The most memorable, and to me, the best soundtrack in a game is Final Fantasy X's soundtrack. It's just incredible to listen to.

Here's a sample:

Oh fucking this.

Final Fantasy X's soundtrack is one of my most memorable. The Mass Effect and Halo games also have very memorable soundtracks.

Hmm, I tried looking up some good Mass Effect music for my iTunes, but the best I could find that was also memorable was the 'inside the Normandy' theme (since you are there half the game)

Mind recommending any others?

Oh, and yeah Zanarkand would be on the top of my list.

 

[Almgandi]

Brutal Legend!

Driving around in your awesome demon car with the apocalypse raining down upon you and power metal playing in the background? Can't get much better than that.

well that's not really fair ><

 

[Geekosaurus]

Dirt 2. There are some epic songs on that game.

 

[JE4DE]

Brutal Legend, hands down without a doubt!

Even the most tedious of drives to the other side of the map become fun, when a bit of Motley Crue or Tenacious D starts to play. The sound track also gives the stages battles a brilliant atmosphere to them.

Whenever i hear 'Die For Metal' by Manowar, I can't not think of Brutal Legend.

(EDIT: The L4D2 Midnight Riders songs from the concert finale also deserve a mention)
