Deathjam Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 IMO I think Jet Set Radio Future is one of these games. No other game has had me turn it on just to listen to the music (maybe street fighter III third strike) and no other game has had me want to buy the soundtrack. Excellent mix of J-POP (stuff worth listening to), house, drum and beats (this right?) and even a little rap thrown in. I think i bought an xbox for this game (when it was dying of course). so what floats your boat waits for the barrage of anime and rpg music
tapedeck Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 The DKC series hands down. And then there's SSBB. There, I've just won!
Deathjam Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 The DKC series hands down. And then there's SSBB. There, I've just won! LOL SSBB is like 20 games in one. I vote that it should be banned from this thread for it's obvious awesomeness as it will pretty much eclispe anything else mentioned :P And DKC...well i think that, I think of the donkey kong rap ugh *shudders*
spirited away Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 OOT by a mile for me. May be a generic choice, but I just love the soundtrack.
gaggle64 Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Ouendan had an excellent and amazingly fun lie-up of licensed artists, while Halo 3 wins for best original soundtrack. I'm also tempted to recommend Brawl, but that's just Nintendo pornography.
Daft Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Goemon: Mystical Ninja (N64) /thread. Seriously though, MGS2.
Deathjam Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 Bah none of those I wanna dance to apart from Vice City's soundtracks. Gotta love 80's cheese and Michael Jackson classics. Oh and spirited away, daft punk fan? Think I am becoming one after having watched/listened to Interstellar 5555 for almost everyday of the last couple of months.
Pit-Jr Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Symphony of the Night Also, Castlevania IV and Final Fantasy VI were midi-heaven.
Noodleman Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Vice City. /thread exactly what I was going to post.

Just got into them, and they're awesome!

The DKC series had nothing to do with that-thank the lord. Mystical Ninja on the N64 was indeed gorgeous. I've a soft spot for Parrappa's soundtrack too. Kick, punch it's all in the mind...
Deathjam Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 Yup. Only recently mind. Just got into them, and they're awesome! Yeah me too! Got some good tunes from them but its on my other comp. Nothing beats One more time though. And LOL the DKC unmentionable made that stage that featured it in melee a very confusing experience. Starwing had a great tune that I have heard lately in some SSBB vids. Anyone know the name of what I am thinking?
Dan_Dare Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Bah none of those I wanna dance to apart from Vice City's soundtracks. Gotta love 80's cheese and Michael Jackson classics.. For the record: Rocker outfit + Chopper + Mister Mister on the open highway at sunset = best thing in the game.
Deathjam Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 For the record: Rocker outfit + Chopper + Mister Mister on the open highway at sunset = best thing in the game. Unfortunately, I know non of those.
Solo Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Sonic the Hedgehog (1 through Knuckles) had an astonishing soundtrack!
Dan_Dare Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Unfortunately, I know non of those. you know- broken wings! classic track! chopper being a bike...
Coolness Bears Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Tetris, Song C. Nothing beats it. QFT! I really love the Zelda ones! The songs just get me humming, whistling and singing away and when one enters my head it immediately makes me want to play a Zelda game again! In particular Ocarina of Time it's got some great tracks.
ViPeR Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Metroid Prime Super Smash Bros Brawl Streets of rage Super Mario 3 Zelda OOT, MM Hitman 2 Unreal Tournament Quake 2 (PS1 only)
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 Jet Set Radio goes with out saying. Shadow of the Colossus has an absolutely amazing OST. Katamari is incredibly catchy. Hitman's soundtrack is beautiful, even if I don't like the games that much. The original Sonic's are obviously fucking awesome. Edit- How could I forget Killer 7's? Probably the best game soundtrack ever.
Guest Jordan Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 We shouldn't be mixing original compositions and soundtracks tbh. Guitar Hero, Burnout games, GTA games just can't be included due to the fact that they're not actually original. Sure, they're god damn awesome, not gunna take that away from them. Too fucking many to list... Nintendo stand outs Metroid Prime 1 (Intro menu, game menu, all the seperate zones, boss music.) Super Mario Galaxy (Fully orchestrated, jaw droppingly creative.) Zelda: Twilight Princess (mostly the main theme stands out...) Then the obviousness of Smash Bros. Brawl, its basically my favourite soundtrack ever. Tbh, it gets my vote since alot of songs are original compositions. Other great ones! Ace Attorney Series (Especially Apollo Justice) Battlefield Series Castlevania series F-Zero Series Rez Gears of War Half-Life series Halo series (Especially Halo 3, jesus christ) Jet Set Radio/JSRF Katamari Damacy series (although only some are original) Metal Gear Solid Series (Especially 2 and 3 main themes) No More Heroes Ouendan 1 & 2 (2 being my favourite) Sonic music of all fucking time (Bar Sonic R... thats so bad.) Examples such as the main themes from the Adventure series, Sonic Rush, The Mega Drive games... need i go on? Street Fighter II and III: Third Strike Unreal Tournament
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 (Bar Sonic R... thats so bad.) ... I sometimes find myself singing some songs from that in the shower.
