My personal favorite will always be the Zelda theme. That piece of music defines the young years of my childhood.

What about the rest of you guys? What is your favorite video game tune?

Tony Hawks Underground 1 Soundtrack.
Got me into bands like Alkaline Trio, Rise Against, NOFX, Goldfinger and Mastodon.
The other ones soundtracks are still good, just didn't impact me as much.

I would say that my favourite would have to be a tie between SMB3 and Z:OoT.

I love the music from Phoenix Wright. There's a CD of an orchestra playing the music from the games and it's amazing.

Epona's Song on Zelda or the Hymn from FFX. I love to sing them. They calm me down =)

I'd have to say either the Halo tune or the Zelda theme. I personally don't like halo all that much, but I think the theme is just epic. I've even got it on my iPod to play whilst playing WoW.

Oh god there are so many songs from videogames that I like, and that phoenix wright orchestra theme is epic. I would have to go with the remixes of songs in SSBB here I'll post a link where you can find all of them, let me tell you some of those songs are epic

If anyone has seen a halo 3 vidoc, in one theyhave a whole, live orchestra doing the music to halo. This stuff isn't just computer generated anymore, and it's awesome. I personally like the last 15-20 seconds of finale in the halo 2 soundtrack. Absolutely epic.

Metal Gear Sons of Liberty theme by a long way. That opening video is amazing!

I also really like Zanarkland from FFX.

I definately gotta say that my favorite game soundtrack is Zelda. I also love the Final Fantasy music.

Aeris' Theme from Final Fantasy VII. The theme used on the MGS 2 opening video is superb too.

Although I'm a huge Nintendo fan, the Zelda theme comes in second to Portal: Still Alive :D

RAGNAROCK
02-18-2008, 05:44 PM
well I don't know were to start but my favorites are the boss theme songs for most of the final fantasy games I played and baten kaitos.

Definitely the Halo 3 soundtrack, but the annoying musicless parts kinda piss me off.

Contra4 has great music! Its about as retro as it gets.

The Zelda songs and Mario.

Digitalistic

MGS2 and MGS3 main themes.

Nothing will ever top the Wing Fortress theme. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-gocswLwsc)

Zelda music in general, with Dark World Theme being the greatest thing ever.

For nostalgia, I'd have to go for Mario. All Final Fantasy music is excellent as well.

halo theme always gets stuck in my head. and in saints row... its not really a theme... but I liked the radio... even if other games(*cough*GTA*cough*) have done it. (conservative talk radio FTW)

Every once in a while I find myself humming the tetris theme

MJBarret
03-31-2008, 10:06 AM
Soundtracks from Crusader: No Remorse and Comix Zone. Nostalgia baby!:cool2:

I'd have to say that the Zelda and Mario themes bring up the fondest memories. It takes you back to a simpler time when you were young and things were easy.

I love Eyes on me from Final Fantasy VIII, but i also really like the Snake Eater song from Metal Gear Solid 3, it reminds me of a James Bond intro.

03-31-2008, 11:07 AM
any of the halo soundtracks really. mass effect,oblivion, and zelda themes are all awsome.

Still alive is my favorite, as well as the mario theme but thats about all I like. Most video game music IN MY OPINION sucks

TOA DOOM
03-31-2008, 06:58 PM
The main theme of Halo. Actually, all the music from Halo really....I don't like Halo that much, but i don't think anyone can honestly say that it doesn't have an amazing soundtrack.

03-31-2008, 07:26 PM
i also think that super mario galaxy had a downright amazing soundtract

the opening song for PAC-MAN :lol:
i love that song but im not techno-savy enough to make it my message tone on my phone :(

Feanor
04-24-2008, 09:39 PM
Anything by Hip Tanaka, Koji Kondo or Nobuo Uematsu.

Although the Halo games are ridiculously overrated (everything good about them was done years before in Quake, Unreal Tourny and Half-Life), I admit they have damn good music.

My #1 fave at this moment is, of course Still Alive.

Pokemon Gold GBC, very addictive, specially when your in violet city and a old man shows you about or DMC3-Dark choir theme song

Nobuo Uematsu or Utada Hikaru, gotta love em, also, if you havent already, check out the Overclockers remixes of the whole FF7 soundtrack, lots of different stuff, so ****ing good, and its free to download from their website!

"J-E-N-O-V-A" by the BlackMages is great.

Xenuftw
04-25-2008, 06:18 PM
One of the retro Ocarina of time tunes you can play. Most likely song of storms!:D

SWSilentkiller
04-25-2008, 06:25 PM
well let's see where to begin. Almost all songs in Brawl, some of the pokemon themes from the game, Some of the songs from Super Mario Galaxy were freaking awesome ad epic (the gusty garde galaxy song is awesome). Needless to say there are many awesome VG tunes

PopTrogdor
04-25-2008, 06:27 PM
"J-E-N-O-V-A" by the BlackMages is great.

i suggest you go look at Overclockers remix, and listen to Black Wing Metamorphosis, its the remix of One Winged Angel....wow, its definitely the best of the remixes.

http://ff7.ocremix.org/

But i actually change my mind, my favourite song is Stone Eyes, its the remix of Red XIII's song

MJBarret
04-25-2008, 06:29 PM
The music from Comix Zone is my all time favourite I reckon!

Sonic Heroes!

I challenge anyone to watch the into with the music and not get hooked by the insanely camp rock tune!

while the game itself isn't the best, I will admit that song is pretty good

Halo or Zelda probably
