Which game has the best music?

[the Revenator]

All right honestly, yea I just watched the Extra Credits thing and I know this has probably been made a lot but hell we all love the music in games so what the hell! So what game do you think has the best music overall or just which theme do you like the most? Personally I think Halo does and I mean the entire series not just Halo: CE but the entire series has had kickass music! Mass Effect would be my second choice. So post away!

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

Wild ARMs wins.

FLAWLESS VICTORY!


Yes, yes I am going to be posting this in EVERY video game music thread made on the Escapist after this Extra Credits video.

BlazBlue's soundtrack is just amazing:


I just love *hugs BlazBlue case* BlazBlue's soundtrack.

One of the greatest gaming soundtracks of all time is Valkyria Chronicles. This one sums up the entire spirit of the game:

FFVI, my favourite part being Aria di Mezzo Carattere. Definitely an excellent example on what could be done with 'limited' hardware back in the day.

Before I post my offerings, could somebody please tell me how to insert youtube videos? I haven't a clue how.

My favorite is the 'Stil Alive' song played while the end credits roll of Portal.

The sort of thing that brings a tear to your eye.

Super Mario Galaxy 2. I'm a sucker for beautifully orchestrated music.

 

[Tipsy Giant]

It is Mega Man 2, EVERY, that's right EVERY TRACK IS AMAZING

 

[A-Heart-Of-Gold]

Final Fantsay (in my opinion X and X-2)!

and also Zelda the old original tracks are awsome and will NEVER get out of my head!

I'm going to have to do with the Halo Series, when composed by Martin O'Donnell.

Hmmm lets see most of the final fantasy series had good music. Super smash bros brawl had great music sadly they dont have a soundtrack so i could careless. But my favorite is down right the Sam and Max series because.....wait i dnt need a reason thats how good it is

 

[SpireOfFire]

either red faction 2 or serious sam 2.

 

[Dublin Solo]

I would say Assassin's Creed 2. Every time I was fleeing from guards in Venice, and the music kicked in, I tried and ran in circles just to make the music last longer. And in the flying part, I thought it was a shame I had to hit the map button so often, because it interrupted the music!

 

[Daxter343]

Id say either Legend of Zelda or Final Fantasy 7.

 

[Bullfrog1983]

Rome: Total War

 

[Bailey Cowell]

Sonic Rush and Rush adventure Both had grate live and catchy music to them

 

[Adamc-mh]

Metal Gear Solid 1 had amazing songs like "The Best Is Yet To Come"

 

[DeathsHands]

The Halo series.

Marty O'Donnell is the man.

Any MGS game. Enough said.
