The Best Gaming Music Ever.

Recommended Posts

Cheers for the link Monsieur Ville - made for epic listening!

 

And I see what you mean about the doppelgaenger thing (balls can't do an umlaut on these forums!) - I adore the whole "saving the townspeople by driving a giant robot (despite it being feudal Japan) through their homes".

 

So quirky. So epic.

God I loved that game. The music was epic too. I remember liking it as much as Mario64 and when I talked about it with people they just looked blankly at me as if to say a giant rollerskating robot wasn't immense.

Indeed - I'm currently playing through the first 64 game again - so bad ass!

 

Although my controller paks are having a bit of difficulty here and there. I imagine the connectors in the controller are a bit iffy after all these years. Anyone know a way of say, cleaning or improving them? I don't really know what the best term to use here is!

 

UPDATE: Ah-hah! I've found an excellent video, which I shall post in a separate thread.

Came across a couple more awesome tunes from Mystical Ninja on my little session earlier.

 

 

and...

 

 

Love this game so much! By no means perfect but a charming little adventure! And navigating my way through Japan is quite tricky - so used to the linear games of today showing me the way that I've had to relearn to use a map and re-acquire my sense of direction!

For me, nothing beats the old classics.

 

For the 8-bit era:-

Target Renegade (128k) on the ZX Spectrum contains a whole bundle of my all time favourite tunes.

 

Glider Rider - another fantastic tuneage.

 

16 bit era:-

 

Wolfchild for the Amiga

 

32 bit era -

 

Probably Tomb Raider

 

After that, it sounds odd but I just don't seem to notice like I once did.

Ville's awesome guitar playing in the "Guess the game title" thread reminded me of the tunes from Maximum Carnage for the SNES. Always found this game insanely hard but awesome at the same time!

I promise that this is the last music sample related to Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon!

 

This scene is towards the end of the game and it's just magical!

Timesplitters 2 had good music,

 

the Western Theme stuck out for me, I felt like a hero playing to that.

 

You can download all the Timesplitters music free online.

Excellent project, that one. Can't wait to see the next albums.

 

I love Final Fantasy 5, and they're doing a project with so much flavour.

An heroic theme for Knight, a soothing theme for White Mage, a weird theme for Blue Mage, etc.

 

I recommend both the game and this album.

 

Also, Sephiroth got nothing on "Sealed Book":

how about we have a chat about songs that pushed the old sytems to their limits..

 

This is as close to cd quality i've heard on snes.. Every song from this game, although not personally the best MUSIC per say it's quite impressive.

 

as for megadrive, nothing comes close to cd quality unfortunetly but hey it still had some bad ass tunes.
