No, it has to be a song that its from the game not songs from different artists like in gta or nfs.

What i mean it it has to be specifically made for the game

Arcanum have some really nice bits. Pretty much everything is made by a string quartet.

Another one that is damn good is Half Life: Opposing Force. I remember putting taking the songs off and putting them on CD's for car use.

The only reason it's alright is because you just played the game. Taken out of the blue the song isn't very good at all.

It is a nice song.
Music appreciation is very subjective.
What gives one an ear-gasm might give someone else the urge to crap.

This was only done for the game and its totally amazing gotta listen and the lyrics fits well with the game since the song was designed just for the game.

Ground Control II: Operation Exodus and Overlord II have the best soundtracks ever. The best part: buy the game and the music for Overlord II is sitting right there in the program directory as unprotected MP3s for the taking.

I doubt they are uploaded anywhere.


Beyond Good & Evil has some good stuff (not even close to the two above though). The OST is available free to download from:

So agreed with #9: King K. Rool final battle music. That song gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it. It is so spot on.


I have the Whole Mass Effect OST and is fucking awesome. I will post some of the best songs in a few minutes
I thought only the Spectre Induction and M4 Part 2 (Faunts)--the credits music--really stood out. There's several others (Mass Effect Theme, The Citadel, The Thorian, Virmire Ride, Exit, and Vigil) stood out as being above average. The You Tube ones you linked to sound like crap. :(

Not the best score ever but still worth it for comedic value. :D

Most of the BoF IV songs were great. The Ludia and Wyndia themes are great too.

The opening animation's music was composed by a different person than the in-game music though, but is still just as great.

So to enumerate them:
Music for the opening, Truth and Dreams, How Long Will the Rain Last?, Thousand Wings, A Raging Emperor's Banquet.

For Suikoden II its:
Homesickness, Imprisoned Town, Heart-Softening Theme, The Fugue "Praise be to my Master".

For the FF games the only one that really stands out for me were the FF VIII songs (although I've only played VII-IX, and Dissidia). So it's the Man with the Machine Gun and Eyes on Me.

Legend of Legaia it's Light of the Town, Forest of Mystery, and Dream, Teague.

YES YES YES YES YES i absolutely LOVE Descent Music from each game. Descent 2 Vertigo was my favorite of all time OF ALL TIME. (▲)(▲)(▲)(▲)

I headbanged to the title theme of Descent 2 for like 5 minutes straight as soon as i first head it.

GO2apH18Kz8

The credit music reminds me of John 5s style alot.

Another theme i like is the Halo 2 title theme because Steve Vai plays it.

I love all FF7 music, especially the boss theme which i learned on guitar.

And you cant forget the classic Zelda music. Learning that on guitar too.
