The whole collection of music from Stellaris and Cyberpunk are both excellent.

Crusader: No Remorse / No Regret

So many great remixes of it too.

[-] coolmyll@lemmings.world 3 points 2 years ago

Max Payne. It sets the tone of the game at once.

[-] GONADS125@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

The BF1942 theme/title music is the most epic to me.

The theme to the original Tomb Raider: https://youtu.be/fIWLT0QVPzw?feature=shared

I hope they keep this for the remaster, for the full nostalgia effect.

Definitely the kind of game where you stay too long in each menu because you don't want to cut off the music

[-] cradac@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

The Elden Ring Main Menu theme has always impressed. It sets the stage very well.

If I think of main menu music only one other game cones to my mind and that's Doom Eternal. I'm not sure if it's necessarily a "good" main menu theme, but the whistling definitely stuck with me.

Sayonara Wild Hearts, not surprising since the entire game is full of beautiful music

Uncharted 2 main theme for me... So short but so damn good.

[-] Jaysyn@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Fallout 3. Gives me frission every time I hear it.

I don't remember if it was in the main menu/what the main menu was, but if you walked onto your balcony in the PC game version of Blade Runner, Vangelis' Blade Runner Blues would play, mixed in with the rain and the sounds of the city. I spent a lot of time just standing on that balcony and letting the music play.

I always loved the Legally Distinct Massive Attack - Angel from Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. Rik Schaffer was on fire for that whole soundtrack.

Not main menu but the MGS V deployment music while you're picking out your gear really gets you amped for your next mission. (from 1:10)

[-] vivadanang@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

I use the F-Zero start screen tune as my alarm clock.

[-] farcaster@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Many good ones here already. Another memorable one for me is Metal Gear Solid 3.

[-] tuckerm@supermeter.social 2 points 2 years ago

The Ghost Recon theme has been stuck in my head off and on ever since it came out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwLIHqkqHcw

I didn't even play the game that much -- I think I beat it once, played the multiplayer a little, and moved on. But the music is catchy.

[-] LewZephyr@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Depends on what mood I'm in.

Currently I'd like to chill, I'm pretty tired, maybe eat an edible if I had one.

So right now I'd have to say the Mass Effect 1 menu music: https://youtu.be/3GXVXYl3_8c?feature=shared

There used to be a mix I would fall asleep to several years ago. It was the engine humming mixed with the occasional beeping and status tones like a computer on the bridge, and the main menu music would play very softly every few minutes. Can't find it anymore, although there are several of those each individually in hour long mixes.

If I want to get pumped though, doom 3 is a good one:https://youtu.be/rs0cSUIKKew?feature=shared although for actual main menu looping music, I'm going to have to agree with GONADS125, battlefield 1942 never fails to get me up and moving. It's a very driving song.

Xenoblade Chronicles!

[-] DSTGU@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Sm64 file select, lol

[-] squirrelwithnut@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Metroid Prime or Mass Effect

[-] execb5@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Need for speed 2 from 1997 has an amazing soundtrack https://youtu.be/69-J2m_GyhI?si=WkJGAFCphXHxusPe

[-] Ashtear@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Off the top of my head, either Ecce Valde Generous Ale (Behold the Precious Wings) from Panzer Dragoon Saga or the one in Trails from Zero.

[-] osprior@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Lagoon (SNES), Premonition, such a banger.

[-] EvilBlackCat@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Let me introduce people here to "life is strange : Before the Storm" main menu music !
