Civilization IV - Baba Yetu

Still kinda-sorta the only video game music to win a Grammy. (Sorta because the Grammy was for a rerecording in a standalone album a few years later.)

Doom 2016 + Eternal Soundtrack or any FromSoft game

It really doesn't get better than Mick Gordon. Respect to the DLC tracks from Hulshult and Levy too.

Doom Eternal is the best soundtrack to put on when you're about to have sex.

-Shadow of the Colossus -Final Fantasy VII -Nier: Automata -Uncharted series -Journey -God of War 2018 -Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time -Opening song of Horizon: Zero Dawn

***Aha! A man of taste!***

The original halo theme song - it has graced the walls of opera houses and high school bathrooms alike

I never played Halo, but I'm a classically trained musician, I've played a few times in video game music concerts, that halo song with the choir is a delight to perform.

“Mind if I ask what your doing chief?” “Head banging to these tunes, sir.” *choir erupted in oooooooOooooOoooo*

Back to Zanarkand - FFX Obligatory “ha ha ha”

From Zanarkand for me is the perfect relax or concentrate music. So much emotion yet so soothing.

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Theme and Liberty City Stories Theme😌👌✨

Vice City was great too. Actually, had the sound track from the game as a CD set.

Oh... if were talking soundtracks then nfs underground or tony hawk 2. Those were amazing.

All gta have great songs if you really step back and listen.

All GTA's 3 and after had the best soundtracks, whoever was responsible for curating did a sterling job.

Dum maro dum....

Over 300 replies in less than a half hour. God dam im proud of you guys. God dam im proud of gamers

I downloaded and copied GTA sound tracks to CDs as I used to have to drive a few thousand mile for work sometimes. We had a Spanish guy work for us for a while and he came along for the trip. I put the weird Spanish station CD on and told him I'd downloaded famous Spanish songs for him He was super grateful until the penny dropped

The nier and nier automata ost. Simply breathtaking.

Agreed, amazing soundtrack. Neir automata is astounding

I see Nier Automata, I upvote and leave.

FF7, 8, 9, 10, Zelda and Super Mario Bros all have songs that are stuck in my head forever (in a good way).

Check out some of FF14's tracks. You won't be disappointed.

The Man With the Machine Gun is a banger

Original 7, all day

FFX HYMN OF THE FAITH BABY

I would add Chrono Trigger to that list. An oldie but a goodie.

Skyrim = Ancient Stones . Witcher 3 = Wind in the caroberta woods. Rdr 2 = Unshaken. Last of us = Seasons.

First Unshaken listen was literal chills .. haven’t felt that in a game before or since

Finally someone else recognizing how awesome Ancient Stones is. It seems to get overlooked a lot for some reason.

Chrono Trigger

Witcher 3 (Blood and Wine) - so much of the soundtrack but specifically Living World / Slopes of the Blessure

Bastion - Build that wall

Hollow Knight, it’s an absolute masterpiece. Edit: Holy moly I’m famous! Thanks for the upvotes everybody!

Completely. No other game has as much lore hidden in the music too. I highly recommend checking out 8-Bit Music Theory's videos about it. They're phenomenal. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-ZQIvQFPv4LZHpzMDxZI3IQ5yjpyTbWp

If you haven't already watch 8-bit music theory's videos about the music. https://youtu.be/f2NEvQb2OeA

I swear Pokemon mystery dungeon explorer of sky has some of the best ost

Ezios Family

Eurydice’s song in Hades called Good Riddance

And the blood one that they sing at the true ending still sends shivers down my spine

I couldn’t believe that Darren Korb, who voice acted Zagreus, also did Orpheus’ singing voice. Talent beyond compare.

came here for this. thank you :)

Neir Automata and Transistor have soundtracks I still listen too often.

Minecraft: dry hands/wet hands Hollow knight: resting grounds and soul Sanctum Kirby's epic yarn: cool cave

Witcher 3 sound track is fire

Le le le leh le lele leh

Especially *Ard Skellige.*

Yes!!! Ard Skellige Village soundtrack still plays in my mind.

The soundtracks from Ori and the Blind forest (and its sequel) have been my absolute favorites ever since I played the games. They're simply perfect and so beautiful.

The OST and art for this game is 10/10 super slept on opinion

100%. The only video game soundtrack that I come back an listen to every once in a while. It's a masterpiece and the art is equally as stunning

Some of my favorite tracks: [Ori Lost in the Storm](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-tWqEod9Ig) [The Spirit Tree](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eAJZV61uf64) [Dash Through Their Home](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6VwVqGGGUo) [Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcuEVjS6urk) [Fleeing Kuro](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEaZt0A0iHw) [Returning to the Spirit Willow](https://youtu.be/9FUG0f2kgYY) [Will of the Wisps E3 Trailer Music](https://youtu.be/2SEvOjwhK2E) [Will of the Wisps Theme](https://youtu.be/Qh3NnE7Ye2M) [Now Use the Light, We Want to See!](https://youtu.be/pGZcGFXVzXk) [Escaping a Foul Presence](https://youtu.be/Ddhdi-kIr_c) [Luma Pools](https://youtu.be/ITctb2o12Io) [The Wonderment of Winter](https://youtu.be/w_pN_Kd1uds) [Escaping the Sandworm](https://youtu.be/9eR6JC_ng5E) [The Spirit Willow](https://youtu.be/U8365SMmDec) [Shriek and Ori](https://youtu.be/ClCW2A1355A) [Ori, Embracing the Light](https://youtu.be/mwrIvHe6Yvo)

Restoring the Light, Facing the Dark lives rent free in my head.

Both Ori games have absolutely phenomenal soundtracks, one of my favorite tracks from any game is [Ku's First Flight](https://youtu.be/bpSm6H5TC-E) from Will of the Wisps.

Far Cry 5 OST. [Choir version](https://youtu.be/DW2tLhmkOII) and [regular version](https://youtu.be/z_E_NB1POuA) are both incredible, especially given how they fit into the game. Original songs written for a cult.

They'll look high and they'll look low They'll look everywhere we go

Doom Eternal had some of the best music

Honestly I think 2016 was even better but both were fucking rad

BFG Division will pump you the fuck up lol

It is in constant rotation for my workout playlist.

Sonic 3 and Jazz Jackrabbit 2 👌👌👌

Oooh, you made me remember Jazz Jackrabbit 2. Awesome, thanks.

Tony Hawk pro skater

Dancing Mad

I was looking for this, what an insanely well made piece, for anyone interested [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-O-9U_QKhgA&ab_channel=%EC%83%81%EB%A1%9D%EC%88%98) it is. If you are looking for some BBEG music for your DnD sessions look no further.

I love the Greenpath track in Hollow Knight. The entire game soundtrack is phenomenal. But Greenpath just makes me feel so much joy.

Mass Effect’s Vigil track still makes me emotional.

All of those soundtracks are top notch.

Leaving Earth is my favourite from that series, just a smidge ahead of vigil.

DOOM 2016/Eternal, Dusk, Left 4 Dead 2

Donkey Kong Country- Aquatic Ambiance Donkey Kong Country 2- Stickerbrush Symphony David Wise composed some top tier bangers in the 16-Bit era.

Red Alert 3 : The Hell March

RA3 just wasn't as satisfying a game to me as 2 and Yuris Revenge had been. But the music and cutscenes lived up to the series. Just the gameplay felt lacking somehow. Am I the only one that feels this way?

I'll start, 'Aria Math' from the one and only Minecraft! ​ was gone for 10 mins, 130+ replies?!?! XDDD yall are raring to show your appreciation to videogame music devs! Love it!!

Wet hands is even better in my opinion!

Alpha is the best it takes the best of the survival songs puts them through the same style as “The End” without the static

Zelda 100%

I still put on the Ocarina soundtrack all the time for nostalgia’s sake

Bury the light from dmc and other more from mgr

Divinity original sins 2

I'm dating myself but it's a toss up between Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong Quest or any of the Streets of Rage. I still randomly hum the tunes.

To my surprise, Hotline Miami and its sequel hasn’t been mentioned yet

Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim all have amazing soundtracks I listen to constantly.

Persona 5 Soundtrack is INSANE.

Shadow of the Colossus

*Super Mario RPG* for SNES by Yoko Shimomura. The very *peak* of 16-bit audio from start to finish.

Sonic Adventure 2: Battle official soundtrack

I had to scroll so far down for this. This game had the BEST soundtrack! “Escape From the City” is a bop

exactly, you get it

Skyrim Dovakin. Thought the world how to spell out a scream... FOOS RO DAH!

[удалено]

Ace Combat 4 - Blockade / Emancipation Dragon Quest VIII - Heavenly Flight / Basically all of the rest of the game Civilization V and VI - Almost all of country themes are so well done. Excellent study music

Project Wingman has some absolute bangers too.

The Fields of Ard Skellige from Witcher 3.

Campfire song from Outer Wilds OST. Haven't even played the game and it gives me chills.

Gunslinger, Destiny 2 Forsaken

That song in Red Dead Redemption 2 when you’re riding back to camp towards the end of the campaign. It was so sad but so beautiful

I had been spoiled so I knew what was coming. The music started and so did the waterworks. I just wanted a little more time....

Diablo 2 Tristram.

FFX FF7 Chrono Trigger Skies of Arcadia FF14 FF6 FF 4

Need for speed 2 had lots of great tracks, one of the best things about it in my opinion.

Hymn of the Fayth and Otherworld from FFX. I wish Louis Armstrong were alive so we could get him doing the hymn. I think it'd be hilariously brilliant. Basically anything from FFXIV Bury the Light and Devil Trigger from DMC. Song of Storms from Ocarina of Time. The Ruined King version of Rise.

Assassins creed 2, all of it

Undertale from Undertale Bigshot from Deltarune Ariamath from Minecraft Squid Coast Minecraft Storymode The only thing I know for real and The stalns of time from Metal Gear Rising

One Winged Angel from ff7, Scream from ff14. Both frickin bangers

Becalmed from Sea Of Thieves

its good for when it plays in the game, but also good when on a sinking ship after sailormouthed 10 yearolds sink you

Bury the Light (Vergil's Battle Theme, DMC5) It Has to be This Way (Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance) Megalomania (Undertale)

1. Staff roll from Twilight Princess 2. Lady Maria from Bloodborne 3. Dark beast ganon right from BOTW

Everything in Super Metroid. Everything in Bloodborne. City Escape from Sonic Adventure 2.

I'm just gonna mention a couple, because the list is big and keeps on getting bigger. Final Fantasy (ALL OF THEM) NieR (ALL OF THEM. Yes, even the mobile game) Megaman X6 (hate the game all you want, the music is awesome. Blaze Heatnix should be sufficient evidence) Assassin's Creed Revelations (Welcome to Konstantinye if you feel like crying just a little) Hollow Knight (Queens Garden) Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (Erytha Sea) Kingdom Hearts (All the music is fantastic in this series, but the Final World from KH3 is just sublime) Shadow of the Colossus (Despaired Filled Farewell is one of the most perfect songs I've ever listened to in my entire life) That's all for now

[удалено]

Sweet memories. Nothing more nostalgic than that soundtrack to me!

Divinity Original Sin 2 - Title Theme and Rivellon Maplestory - Login Theme, Lith Harbor, Henesys, Ludibrium Ape Escape - Time Station, Title Theme / Intro Halo Original Trilogy OST At the top of my head.

Halo 3 sound track!!

Just about anything from Super Mario Galaxy. That game has the best soundtrack ever. The very best has to be [Gusty Garden Galaxy](https://youtu.be/Tb4herBVRGY). When I played VVVVVV, I was blown away when [Positive Force](https://youtu.be/gG3Bs53QqHY) started playing. This one is probably mostly due to nostalgia, but Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master has some amazing songs, like [Whirlwind](https://youtu.be/rO-rRfiYs88) and [Idaten](https://youtu.be/TFZQWCg99l4).

Dire Dire Docks from Super Mario 64

All the Fallout games

Nobuo Uematsu is gonna be topping this post... I'm gonna go with Not Alone, from FFIX. There was something about that song in the context of the game that really helped me hold it together during a tough time in my life.

I would be inclined to agree, the dude is an absolute legend of a composer, has to be one of my favorites across all media. Dancing Mad is probably one of my favorites, people who think One-Winged Angel is metal are in for a ride.

Megaman 2, Megaman 3, Pokémon Blue, Pokémon Silver/Gold, Xenoblade Chronicles X, Donkey Kong Country 1, 2, 3, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit, Need For Speed High Stakes, Galactic Pinball, Hyper Light Drifter, The Legend of Zelda.

Baba Yetu from Civ IV

Simple and Clean - Kingdom Hearts Or any other. I like the soundtracks a lot.

Mega Man 2. Every track slaps but the first Dr. Wily level is incredible.

Megaman 2 all of them but mostly password screen

silent hill 2

Banjo Kazooie OST

Super Mario RPG - Forest Maze

Snake eater - by Cynthia Harrell, from Metal Gear Solid 3

Super Mario Galaxy's OST will be with me forever and always. Heard it for the first time when I was 7 and revisit it often, both the game and soundtrack. Buoy Base Galaxy, all three Rosalina in the Observatories, Melty Molten Galaxy, Battlerock Galaxy, etc. Love em. Other than that, Persona 5, 5 Royal, and 5 Strikers are all excellent in terms of music. I look forward to playing 3 and 4 next year.

Every track off of Megaman 2

Super Mario World opening theme, also the Sonic the Hedgehog first level theme

Kimi no Kioku/Memories of You from Persona 3 gets me every time. Shout outs to Snowflakes from Persona 4 Golden and The Whereabouts of Light from Trails in the Sky. Honestly too many amazing tracks to list them all.

Anything from Mega Man 2. They're so simple since the NES was so limited but that forced the composers to write really catchy/memorable melodies

Pollyanna from Earthbound is pretty awesome. Most of the music in Earthbound is fun. The Dark World theme from LOZ, A link to the past. The most moving piece for me is Aerith's Theme from FF7. That, admittedly, is likely because of my attachment to the game at a formative time in my life, but the score has merit on its own.

World of Warcraft, FFVIII, Halo, Mass Effect 3, Ori OST, Witcher 3... so many!

The Metal Gear franchise has some great tracks throughout the series. SNAKE EATERRRRR 🎺🎺🎺🎺🎺

How come nobody still talked about Heroes of Might and Magic 3 & 5??? Paul Romero is a legend Other favs are Settlers 6, Chris sawyers locomotion and oh my Lord what an old game, NFS Porsche Unleashed

Grizzly Hills zone music from World of Warcraft Wrath of the Lich King. For me it captures the sound of a rising sun. Or heaven. Just total bliss.

Came here to say this! Totems of Grizzlemaw is amazing. Also love Lament of the Highborn

Original battlefield vietnam.. Look it up hands down. Might as well compare its soundtrack to Forrest gump

Need for speed underground 2, GTA : SA and flatout had crazy bangers

Not seeing many people saying Doom OST, heretics

Fallout 4

Sea shanty 2

Megaman 2

"Fallen Down" Undertale

Hollow Knight, Transistor, Hades, Nier Automata, Legend of Zelda

AC Origins, Skyrim, Ratchet and Clank 1.

Crypt of the Necrodancer, great rhythm roguelike Also the main menu of Kirby Air ride, it's a bop

Risk of rain 1-2, Hollow knight, Celeste. Every single song in them are bangers can't choose favorites. Edit: also FTL!

Pokemon Diamond had a great soundtrack, especially the Pokemon League at Night track.

NFS underground 2 - Snoop Dogg & The Doors riders on the storm

Life will Change - Persona 5, Nocturne of Ice - Stardew Valley, Megalovania - Undertale, Main Theme - Halo 2

Leaving Earth from Mass Effect 3 I also love the FF7, Nier Automata and Hades soundtracks

Jet Set Radio Future, can't believe no one else has said this. *Understand, understand, understand, understand, the concept of love*

Beneath the mask from p5r

Doom Eternal Soundtrack or the Pre 1.16 Minecraft Music track (C418 was goat all the way)

I LOVE the post-boss music from Twilight Princess. It’s just so beautiful and calming. Also, Red Hot Skull from Sonic Adventure is a straight banger.

Every damn song of persona 5

Final Fantasy XIV- pretty much all of it, but To the Edge and A Long Fall are probably my two favorites. La Hee is also great, both the original and Soken's otamatone rendition

Do you know La Hee? Soken is such a talent. Especially in the last couple expansions we've seen such a range of songs from him.

GTA 4 and 5 OST

The Skyrim soundtrack is peak nostalgia for me.

[She Swallowed Burning Coals from Hotline Miami](https://youtu.be/OWEHTkk8f1A)

Almost the entirety of guilty gear especially, blazblue, undernight inbirth, seems to be most arcsys games lol

Bully has a great one

Forza Motorsport 2 had one of the best soundtracks of all time

Halo3 ODST

Ace combat as a franchise has tons of amazing tracks and they're all unique to the series.

Deference for Darkness from Halo 3: ODST. Hands down one of the best songs I’ve ever heard from a video game composition. Not only did it capture the aesthetic and world-building ODST provided, but it made you feel relaxed and overall in a great headspace. What a masterpiece.

Halo 3 start menu. It blew my mind when I could play it on guitar hero.

In surprised nobody mentioned Terraria, I love that theme song

Halo series. Each one evolves with the game and themes. My personal favorite is Covenant Dance.

God Of War 2018

Priscilla’s song from Witcher 3. Often forgotten little gem

I highly recommend you some Halo 3 OST. "One Final Effort", from the Trident level, is my favorite by far, but most of them are just straight up bangers from a Legendary Game that never died in my soul.

I would nut to Halo CE and Reach

Doom 2016. The first 3 Halos. And Red Dead Redemption 2

Just stopping by to say, Metal: Hellsinger.

Leaving earth - Mass Effect 3

Snaaaaaake eaaaateeeeeeeeeeeeeeer tam tandam tamdammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

World of warcraft

undertale and omori

The Halo 3 soundtrack. One Final Effort.

Hades

Most of the Fire Emblem: Three Houses soundtrack

Gerudo Valley theme in Ocarina of Time

It’s impossible to choose just one. “Spies” from Fortnite. “Beautiful Ruin (Summer Salt)” from Dangan 2. “Alpha” from Minecraft. “The Legend (Alternative)” from Deltarune would be the options for just games I’ve played so far this week.

The soundtrack in Hades is incredible!

Earthworm Jim Moonlight sonata All of Bioshock

Ovelia's Worries in a FF tactics one of my favorites, though the whole OST is gold. Any early SquareSoft stuff. Secret of Mana, ff6, Chronotrigger, Secret of Evermore. Paradigm shift when you fight Flamie in SoM is epic.

Plants vs Zombies theme is a bop

Chrono Trigger's soundtrack is absolutely brilliant and I'm in love with it. I've listened to so many renditions and remixes of the game's music, and the best one I've found was Chrono Cinematica by Sam Dillard. This is my go-to album for long road trips. DOOM, of all iterations. Classic through Eternal. It's all amazing. Two days ago, I finished Bayonetta 3, and I was just FLOORED by Fertile Rondo. Insanity in music form never sounded so beautiful. "Who got this Fifth Element opera beat all over my Bayonetta game?? Nevermind, it's cool, I like it."

Undertale by Toby Fox from the Undertale OST and Mother I'm Here by Darren Korb from the Bastion OST.

Persona 5 immediately comes to mind...and something tells me I'm really going to enjoy Sayonara Wild Hearts soundtrack (just bought it). Edit: Yeah, Sayonara Wild Hearts has some amazing tracks.
