My favourite is MoP personally. That one is cool though

Wild Arms (Cover of Intro Theme)


Almost anything from Suikoden 2

Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze(David Wise's best work)
Max Payne 3
Red Dead Redemption
Persona 3
Persona 5(haven't even beat it yet, but close and it's easily the best in the franchise)
Final Fantasy IX

Favourite PS2 soundtrack would have to be this

[Avar ize]

Chrono Trigger

Hell yeah! Frog Theme!

[Eleccybubb]

Alright enough FF favouritism from me now. DOOM

[ThrashMetalFtw]

joking aside, Warcraft2 actually had a great soundtrack for its era

I dunno, Blizzard always had strong soundtracks, but WC2 stands out as the one game with much "worse" soundtracks than anything else they have done. It sounds amateurish compared to anything that came later. I mean, WC2 was released in 95, and SC1 in 98, so there's a 3 year gap, but the difference is still huuuuge.

This one is easy. GTA Vice City soundtracks.

I like the menu music better in Witcher.

This one really blew me away first time I heard it.

the soundtrack for Bloodborne was absolutely stellar

This one is amazing too, not to mention the fight itself.


Accursed phase is just so wicked and then the Holy Blade phase starts 3:40, it's simply epic.

[Eleccybubb]

Might pick up Bloodborne now on Steam

[Nethlord]

There are so many, some of these are franchise wide. The list below is in no particular order

Final Fantasy
Silent Hill
Assassin's creed (up to Black Flag)
Elder Scrolls (Skyrim)
The Legend of Dragoon
Mega Man (1-4)
Castlevania (1-4 and SoTN)
Ninja Gaiden (the nes ones only)

[Redwyrm]

Chrono Cross (again.. almost every track)



Vagrant Story

Agreed, Ludwig was intense.

Sadly, Bloodborne is PS4 only. I'd loved to play a 60 fps version on PC but i dont think its going to happen.

Two ways you can go about soundtracks. First, you can have licensed music, which I would give to Brutal Legend. It was a game BUILT around the fantasy of a genre, so no doubt it would have an epic collection of tracks to go with it. For example, the song the storyline was based on as well as the theme for the final boss battle:



Second, we have original scores. These have to not only match the tone of the events happening in the game, but act as a vehicle to deliver you from your world into the game's. For that, I pick Undertale. From the quite relaxing and cheerful tunes that so successfully emulate and sometimes even succeed classic scores like The Legend of Zelda, to the epic boss battle themes:

NOTHING beats the band of Sonic games. They are the best!
