This is a favorite soundtrack thread as much as a recommendation one... I've been heavily looking into video game soundtracks and even movies. But I'll stick with video game soundtracks on this one.

Some of my favorites are House of Sacred Dreams - Castlevania and pretty much the entire Halo Reach soundtrack.


What are some of your favorite video game soundtracks? Feel free to list your favorite track.

Actually, I'd like to hear more opinions if you don't mind because I consider soundtracks important. So no, don't end thread.

Although I have not played the game yet but Xenogears has an AMAZING soundtrack better than the vast majority of games, it is an older RPG game for the PS1.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past has the most epic soundtrack ever. It's been about 20 years since I played that game and I can still distinctly remember every tune in it. Here's a few examples:

Badgirls theme tune from No More Heroes is pure awesome battle music that suited the game and the character well.

Forest Monks from Chaos Legion.

Street Fighter IV Overpass Theme my favorite stage music in that game.

All Points Bulleton had a fantastic soundtrack, including Pendulum, Bulletproof Messenger(although I don't like that rap metal linkin park music it's cool to hear in-game) Dephnic and much, much more, plus you could download your own tracks to play in your car so other players could hear if they got in or you rode on by.

Edit: The last one is more liscened music so probably doesn't count.

The intro music to Sons of Liberty. Easily the best piece of game music ever written, closely followed by Snake Eater's end sequence.

Aside from that -- the Halo games have tremendous soundstracks, particularly the "Finish the Fight" theme from Halo 3. That was a badass piece of music.

As for complete soundtracks my weaknes for violins makes Bioshock a choice for me, and also the entire Gothic 3 orchestral album.

Not to mention FO 3 Agatha`s radio station and this :
