Games with the best soundtracks

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

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 :shakehead *shudders*

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.

NEVER mention the DK ©RAP!! 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...

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?

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.

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
