What's your battle theme?

Here's mine:

This probably wouldn't be fitting for a final boss, but I can see it working for a recurring mid-boss in a turn-based RPG.

EDIT: Actually, after watching another episode of Chuggaconroy playing Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness, I can't help but feel that this song would fit perfectly as a battle them in that game.

I think the last time I did this it was the instrumental version of "Severed Into Separates" by Darkest Hour. For some diversity, though, I'll go with this one:


Maybe not the most energetic song I can think of, but I could see it being good for one of the more climactic battles that means a lot to the hero for whatever reason.

I'm totally jacking this from Dead Rising, but I don't care. It is the coolest boss music of all time, so obviously it must be the coolest boss of all time. (if you missed the hint, I'm the coolest boss battle eva!)


Whenever I hear this song, I always remember the horror that was beating these damn convicts.

Well, if I can nick a theme from a different game, I'm going to go with DiVINe MaDNEss [sic] from Epic Battle Fantasy 3


That boss was rather evil, and the music did a lot to set that "Creeping madness" ambience. It's really great! I'd use different attacks though, more psychic in nature.

I'll be honest, when I looked at your avatar while listening to this song, it might have been one of the funniest things I've seen all day XD It's just such a wonderful contrast. Aside from that, it is a pretty awesome battle theme.

Intro, then loop from ~0:40 (start of the first verse) to 3:02 (end of the guitar solo).

Edit: If it's a song from a video game:

It's made all the better depending on when you start the song. If you start it at the right part, the girl in the avatar is actually half-way dancing to the beat. :p

OT:

For me it's a toss-up between

The intro would be the dialogue between me and the hero, at 0:23 is when I'd throw my evil cape back and draw my weapon, initiating the fight.

It has to be duo's theme from varth.


Frankly, it makes the imperial march look like keyboard cat.

This should terrify them.
Though seriously, if i was a boss I'd be running around everywhere throwing random junk at the protagonist from a distance so the music would actually be rather fitting.

Something nightcore, I'd say. Probably <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QemNZy7SWHM>Dark Chest of Wonders, if I could get it in both nightcore and instrumental.

If I'm a final boss, though...

Unless I'm the super-duper secret bonus boss only fought after the end credits.

Then, <url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDMNHvnIxic>you would fight me to this.

For some reason, that made me think of this one, though it'd probably require about a minute of dialogue to start instead of twenty seconds.

Having very recently beaten Y for the first time (hey, I started late) I just have to say this:


It's a song good enough for me to have to go through all of the games again and redo my top ten list.

Anyway, my team will be tough. >:D

It would either be this



or this

Ok this is more suited to the boss than the protagonist since the boss won't give up that easily!

^_^ Going to have to go with:

Also, I would be one of those really annoying teleporting boss fights, turning into a lightning bolt and striking down on my destination <3

I'm going to be cheap and post a Kingdom Hearts track.
The music in KH is all top notch, so choosing one was no small task, but I think this one strikes fear into the hearts ( :p ) of men the most. Also, I'd say most KH fans both love and hate this theme, for the battle it accompanies.

I don't know why. Maybe because I just watched Madoka Magica for the first time and loved how dark the ending was compared to the OP.

*maniacal laugh*
I have three forms in total, each with their own distinctive soundtrack...

First form comes with this particular track:

Defeat me once and my second form comes with this particular track:

Defeat me again and my third (and final) form comes with this particular track:

Afterwards, expect several or so "trocheivemnets" (based on strategy and/or difficulty), a couple of semi-OP weapon/loot drops, and a sign of respect for your power before I croak after the final battle... if you choose to end my life right then and there, that is... (If you choose to let me live after our final battle, then I would respect your modesty in choosing to spare my life...)

Also, I noticed I'm fading into obscurity: my title track isn't on Youtube anymore :(

One of my favourite battle themes ever, the music in this game was so good.

Hell, I'd even take this one:
