Game Music

As the budget (and technology) for games increases, the quality of the music in them has improved. From the simplistic tunes in Pokemon and Tetris back in the '80s and '90s, we now have games with full, sweeping orchestral soundtracks, often easily the rivals of any big-budget film.
Anyway, getting to the goddamn point... Post any game soundtracks you consider good/catchy/epicly-mega-awesome.
I shall begin:


Similar to the Halo Reach one. Play from 3:23:

(Only really begins after about 1:20.)

I love the stuff in SotC, Silent Hill, and the Katamari games. I'll post them later or someone can feel free to beat me to it.

I'm rather partial to RA3's opening theme, despite never having played the game...

This has to be the greatest video game theme ever


And of course, the game that convinced me to buy a Playstation


And the end sequence for Final Fantasy 8

I like quite a lot of game music, especially when located in the tribute section of youtube...

Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker by some guy

Super Mario Galaxy by some hilarious dude

My current favorite

For the bit that starts around 1:12. There's a custom map called Starbattle where you control a really big ass capital ship, It's absolutely perfect for charging around killing things in slow motion.


All time favorite though...

So many wasted childhood afternoons...

I missed these











^^^^ Picks up around 0:50



As everyone can probably tell... I LOVE the Mass Effect series.

Talking of Mass Effect, and not strictly on topic as it wasn't made specifically for the game, but I love the song that plays during the credits...

^^I really liked that song too.















The best! Just absolutely the best! This game stirs up a flood of visceral emotion, when I think about it.

Here's some from the Silent Hill 3:

(or anything from 虫姫さまふたり )


(at least the first four bars of it, which is all you will ever hear)

VVVVVV is one of the greatest indie games I've ever played, and it's soundtrack is incredible. My favorite from the soundtrack

"Qunari on the Rise" sounds suitably epic...

Edit:

And...
