For my money it's a tie between Eurydice's song from Hades, any of the tracks from VVVVVV and Still Alive. But what do you think?

Firelink Shrine from Dark Souls, it's so peaceful and melancholic

From games all have amazing soundtracks. I just played through everything from demon souls to Elden ring including sekiro and bloodborne and realised they all have amazing, but very different, soundtracks. Most bosses have completely unique soundtracks it's amazing the attention to detail and you miss it if you aren't specifically listening for it .

Kinda hard for me. I'm split between NieR:Automata, ultrakill and Doom 2016/Eternal

Then again, I just started Baldur's Gate 3 and the soundtrack so far is pretty bangin so this might change

  • Yuzo Koshiro
  • Rob Hubbard

I don't know if I'm brave enough to say of all time. but the tracks from jazz jackrabbit 2 are pretty awesome. I have them on my ordinary music playlist.

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

Jungle Fevah, Jazz be damned, Dark groove and Tubelectric kick ass! (Not that the others don't, I just particularly like those ones)

Alexander Brandon is a legend

Space Harrier or Outrun, for sure.

Special award for Ghost n Goblins or Commando and some others like Dragon's Lair.

FF IX for me

Here's an obscure one.

The Batman game for NES.

That stage 1 & 2 song was like no other game music on the NES before or since.

Also, shout out to Blaster Master.

There are many great ones. Off the top of my head, each with a sample:

I've barely played the game, it wasn't for me, but I fell instantly in love with the Bastion and Transistor soundtracks the moment I heard them.

It is my second most played game soundtrack right behind the metal songs from the Alan Wake series. Third is all 3 Hell March songs from Red Alert series. Fourth and oldest is probably Unreal Return to Na Pali and generally all of the two Unreal and four Unreal Tournament game tracks. And the Frozen Synapse series and Uplink soundtracks is probably close to the top too. And I don't know if it counts but the artist behind the Wheel of Time game soundtrack released a separate almost-soundtrack, which I played A LOT while reading the book series.

And thats just a few of my favorite tracks. I love video game music! I can't really decide on a single best one.

For the whole soundtrack Shadow of the Collosus. For a specific track the one I listen to most often is Instrument of Surrender, or Off We Go Into The Wild Pale Yonder from Disco Elysium

Persona 5 Royal

[-] fabio1@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

aquatic ambiance from Donkey Kong country is up there. Also IGN made an actually cool video about it recently.

MW2: Mercenaries was pretty awesome.

Other ones that come to mind are Crazy Taxi and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.

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

Bro, you put a Super Giant game and don't mention "Build that Wall" from Bastion, tsk tsk.

Almost all Deus Ex soundtrack, and maybe the Synapse level was the best of them.

[-] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

Super Mario Galaxy has an amazing soundtrack!

Turrican 2 on the Amiga

[-] GhostOfElectricity@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I think Zelda: Wind Waker's ost is one of the greats. I'm also surprised nobody has mentioned Earthbound and Mother 3 yet. They have amazing atmospheric tracks like nothing else.

Warhammer 40,000 Mechanicus Just embodies the Techpreist vibe so well, a near perfect hybrid of church organs and industrial music.

Its actually hard to pick a favorite track, it evenly split between Children of the Omnissiah and Noosphere.

[-] Sagethefolxhero@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Im a sucker for the witcher 1& 2. Also stardew valley/minecraft are both worth mentioning
