What's your favorite video game music score? (not a poll)
 

Most people I know don't listen to the music when they are playing games, and most times, they are not meant to. Even background music can be enjoyable if you stop to listen though. Especialy when it is apropriate to the circumstances of the game. So my question is, what is the best music you have ever heard in a video game. Here's my list.

1. Final Fantasy VI- It has the best boss theme ever in any game I have ever played and has a great variety of songs on a 65 song sound track. Most of it is very well writen.

2. Halo- Most people are not concerned with music when they have 200 flood up their ass. If you have time, though, stop and listen. It's a very good score.

3. Golden Sun: The Lost Age- Has the music from both games in the series. I recomend the Venus Lighthouse music, one of my favorite video game songs. To enter the sound check, go to the battle mode and talk to the girl in the southwest corner while holding L and R.

I agree with Golden Sun and Final Fantasy VI. Much of the music from Fire Emblem is really good, too.

Star Wars battle front!
it has only music from the Star wars movies. Teh coolness

the music from Red Alert 2. I tell you, nothing puts you in the mood to invade like "Hellmarch 2."

Oh god, let's go down the list:

FF: Mystic Quest has some nice ones, like Last Castle and Middle Tower

FF7: Battle Themes are wicked, and the overworld score, as well as Interrupted By Fireworks, are incredibly well done.

FF8: As much as people bash this game, it has some of my favorite songs in here. For battle themes, the basic and orchastrated versions of the battle theme are nice, Force Your Way, both normal and Black Mage Flavor are good, and Battle the Sorceress is an incredibly dramatic piece. I also like the airship's theme, as well as Balamb's.

FF9: Battle theme is nice, love the overworld theme.

FFX: Excellent soundtrack. Raid, Takeoff, and Those Who Approach are wonderfully tense songs, I play them during high tension battles online. Wandering Flames, A Revealed Truth, and This Is Your Tale are all excellent pieces as well. And for peaceful ambiance, nothing beats Besaid.

FFX-2: Ummm...I really don't have much to say about this piece, there aren't many good ones here. Among them though are Calm Lands, Mushroom Rock Road, and Eternity.

FFXI: The Battle Themes are all excellent, from fight alone, to fighting in parties, to fighting MVPs, the themes are each unique and very well done.

Zone of The Enders 2: Beyond the Bounds is fun, and I love Zakat and Air Battle.

Soul Caliber II: Here I have a few favorites lurking; including Unwavering Resolve, Hubris, Hubris: Reprisal, Confrontation, Healing Winds, Healing Winds: Reprisal, If There Were Any Other Way, Nothing to Lose, and Hellfire.

Legend of Dragoon: Incredible music, all around. The boss and big boss themes really do get dramatic as the fight progresses, and the Battle Against Melbu Frahma is an incredible piece of work.

Smackdown vs. RAW: Most aren't original songs, but the one I really love more than any other is Randy Orton's Theme; Burn In My Light, by Mercy Drive.

Baldur's Gate I/II: Excellent Battle themes, very dramatic. The basic overworld theme and main themes of both are very well done.

And that's just a sample of my favorites :)

Umm... Everything? I love almost all my video game music. Final Fantasy games, Dragon Warrior games, Halo, Command and Conquer... "We will stop them now!" "Warfare" "Mechanical Man"... Warcraft... They're all good.

Wild Arms 2 - Battle with Lord Blazer. This is one of my favourites... I even did my final computer animation project using this music.

Basically though, anything that fits the mood of the part of the game where it is heard is automatically perfect to me. This is why I own more CDs of Video Game music than I do 'popular' music. I can't decide on which is my favourite because they're all my favorites. Hell, if you composed a list of all the games ever made, about 90% of them would be on my favourites list.

To ba specific
 

Final Fantasy V

favorite song has to be "the battle on the Big Bridge" or anything involving Gilgamesh thereof.

Score wise i have to say Zelda 64: ocarina of time, Awesome beyond anything else ... or tetris :D

By the way, please don't double post, it's against the forum rules. You will notice that there is an "edit" button on the bottom of the page, it allows us to add any afterthoughts we have.
Double posting takes up bandwidth, and too much wasted bandwidth can cause the server to slow down, making our friends with 56k modems very unhappy.

Just thought you should know.

Yes, make me unhappy.

But anyway. I loved the FFVII Boss Music. And Melodies of Life form FFIX. ...I can't think of anything else right now, I'll post more when I can think of more.
