What is your favorite videogame song?

[DJswirlyAlien]

The entire soundtrack to Tetrisphere is still the most immense musical achievement in a game ever bar nothing in my opinion. There was nothing like it before and nothing can really quite compare to the level of achievement since. And this game came out in 1997.

Sector sweep in HL2 Episode 2? I think, but all their games music is awesome.

Homeworld's OST is totally awesome. I can't think of a single criticism for it.

For a start, there's about the best piece of atmospheric ambience ever created by anybody, in all of time and space:

Then there's a piece of music which gives you a feeling of absolute wonder at the massiveness of space:

Last but anything but least, there's the utterly beautiful rendition of Agnus Dei (or Adagio for Strings, but with chorus in the place of orchestra) used as its main theme (seriously, listen to this, your life will be better for it):

hands down the greatest

 

[VincentMm]

J-E-N-O-V-A

Or the full orchestral version of Aeris' Theme, that's just beautiful.

 

[Ekonk]

Oh I have MANY. But recently I've been digging Sovereign's Theme.

 

[TehIrishSoap]

"Still Alive" And The Song On The AD For "Pisswasser" On GTA 4 LOL

 

[Hman121]

Tetris, because of the way it sped up and it's simplicity. I also enjoy Portal's song due to its creepy factor and I also liked the Metroid Prime song for the GameCube when Samus is in the Ice place.

 

[imPacT31]

I'm not sure if I have a singular favourite song but the Ryoshimi Coast themes from Okami are right up there:

So is Reunion from Uncharted 2:

and no list of great videogame themes would be complete without Baba Yetu, the menu theme from Civilization 4:

Before the internet made these things so readily available, I would take my little Fisher-Price recorder, play and record this stage in DK, and then play it back to myself to fall asleep.

Spoiler

Not to mention Street Fighter II themes ..which are an enduring comfort.

 

[oktalist]

Seems like there's a thread like this every week, but I'll play along...

For memorable:

Spoiler: Monkey Island

Spoiler: Dreamfall

Spoiler: Syberia

Spoiler: Deus Ex

Spoiler: VVVVVV

For immersive:
Dreamfall again, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

 

[RandomHer0]

Easy.
Metropolis Zone / Chemical Plant Zone, Sonic the Hedgehog 2. or Flying Battery Zone, Sonic and Knuckles

 

[Peteron]

Always been a fan of Pokemon, Zelda, Halo, Kirby, and various other soundtracks. However, I would have to say the Halo 3 theme takes the cake. I mean, it is orchestrated perfectly, and is epic and catchy at the same time. That my friends, is hard to do.

 

[Zirat]

ANYTHING involving the Bonnes from Mega Man Legends, but if I start posting videos of that I would probably fill up the page...

Spoiler: So there's this (I think it counts...)

Spoiler: And then there's Gammas theme

Those are some of my most liked ones, but it is really hard for me to pick a favorite

 

[Imp Poster]

Mine was on True Crime: Streets of LA,

Halo's Theme
