The song that really made a game for you.

[12345cyclone]

From the indie game(xbox 360) "I made a game with zombies in it"

I made
a game
with zombies in it.
I made
a game with zombies in it.
They come at you
from the siyayides(sides)
You better shoot them
or your gunna diyayie(die)
Because I made...

That was the most random song ever for a game, but it kind of made the game because the game ended when the song was over.

Crash Bandicoot, always remember starting up the games 1 or 2 and hearing that xylophone/glockenspiel thing and getting excited, than on 2 it would all go weird and go into the theme.

EDIT: Actually, after giving it some more thought, I realize there is one game that I hate, but still remember the theme of.

Spoiler

I suppose, however, I am more thankful for the theme because it has spawned remixes such as this.

When I heard this song over the credits in Mass Effect, it really summed up just how brilliant the game is. It fitted the ending perfectly, and made me fall in love with the Mass Effect universe.

 

[Casual Shinji]

ah. The Kingdom Hearts intro.

thank you for reminding me.
also the ending from this game was the only thing that ever moved me in a game.
along with this song.

For me it's the Kingdom Hearts 2 intro.

I know it's kinda gay, but my heart just gets tickled whenever I hear it.

 

[A Weary Exile]

Quite a few really (No they're not all from Bioshock, only most of them ).

WARNING VERY LARGE.

Spoiler

and the one that isn't from Fallout 3 or Bioshock

 

[Mindmaker]

From the GBA game Riviera: The Promised Land
Ledah was one of my favorite characters.

Best and most unique RPG on the GBA in my opionion.

This one song really made Red Dead Redemption for me, just the feeling you got when you heard it for the one and only time it plays in the game:

I bought - that's right, bought - the Heavy Rain soundtrack. The music contributed to so much of the eerie atmosphere and scary bits, it was great.
Also, I have the soundtrack to Yakuza 3 - because it came with it mainly - but I still went to the trouble of putting it on my iPod, which proves it's good.
Also, when you ride a bicycle on Bully it has this slightly childlike and pretty music.
Even though it wasn't a brilliant game, The Saboteur played gorgeous old music when you drove around that made the open world driving fun.

 

[Chicaine]

In terms of a single song, has to be this


The GTA games all have good soundtracks but in terms of a whole soundtrack has to be Marc Eckos Getting up

 

[AvsJoe]

NHL: Rock the Rink wasn't a very good game but it had a great hockey-themed indie soundtrack. The song that did it for me would be "Rink Rat" by The Hanson Brothers. The only YouTube vid I found doesn't do the song justice.

I love the intros to both Kingdom Hearts PS2 games.

EDIT: These;


I love both, but I think the second one is better.

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Halo 3.

I could sit in the Halo 3 menu for hours listen to that...

 

[Eponet]

Aerie's Theme in Baldur's Gate 2. It's so perfectly composed that I sometimes cry while listening to it. Even though I hated the person it was attatched to. She was almost as bad as Anomen.

 

[Girl With One Eye]

Loved the song at the end of dragon age, for those of you who havent played its called "This is war" by 30 seconds to mars (sorry I dont know how to put the vid up)

 

[AlphaOmega]

booting up Diablo2: LoD and hearing this still make me nostalgic:

The music of Battle Hunter, it just fit the game so well. All my favorite games have music that I like, and I felt fit the game. Mostly because the right music always gets me in the mood to just keep playing and so I just keep loving it more and more.
