Video game music

If you care to read my posts(which I bet most don't), then you might recall me saying that I simply don't like music that has lyrics(add trance and similar styles to that >_>). However, for some reason, I get all happy and anxious whenever I find that an OST of a game has come to my door by mail. I'm sort of an audiophile, in that sense.

So I ask you: What are your tastes when it comes to video game music? If you mention a song or game, please post some YouTube link to it. I'm looking to expand my collection.

Let me get the thread going then. Ys I&II Chronicles(PSP, soon to be PC) - Battleground.


tl;dr: Post video game music you like with links to YouTube.

I think techno music is what i like in video games. but most of the time the selection depends on game genre. for example, some music in serious sam game is techno industrial so it's good to hear while playing. but most of time i like electronica.
It all really depends on the game, and the mood of the game for me,

so without further adiew heres some music,

obivious choise here;



sorry i couldnt really pick just one.



edit ok one more i forgot to post:


edit okay mabie just one more.....

Some odd reason this wont embed.
YouTube - HELLSINKER OST: Apostle of the seed theme
(since i cant find any of the radio zone music there)


Or puppe is good, but since ive posted one video from this game series i probably would have to hold back on that.

ahh hell more in other spoiler (just incase one spoiler isnt enougth).



would post more but ive spamed enougth videos for today.
I can't pick one either, Castlevania IV has a lot of good music in it, the Super Mario Bros games, the first two Sonic games, I might think of others later.

:wub:
ATM im listening to KH piano collections album. prettty good i wish i could play them.
Props to Noja for Legend of Dragoon, and to Paratech for Castlevania. And I listened to the KH Piano Collection album over at YouTube, and it really is good. Here's something rather calm for those that prefer soothing music rather than heated up songs like the one up top.

Odin Sphere(PS2) - The Ruined Landscape of Nations at War ~ Second
yeah its definitely exceptional, the KH piano collection. I loop it during my final study sessions :D
Seems like there's no interest in game music? This being a forum about emulation, I thought more of you would have posted something by now. Oh well. I leave you with Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice's "Start of a New Trial"(orchestra version) this time.

Weeaboo thread. Needs more diversification.

... you say that without posting any music, which seems to me kind off odd.

now onto the music.




im sorry if this one is not obvious enougth



and this one is to catchy


anyway i would post more but.... i cant be bothered right now, mabie later.
I've already contributed heavily to other threads like this. Not going to put in the same effort on a new thread. Just look at the old one.
ok heres some music






(from Samidare)

(from Shuusou Gyoku)

ill post some more later.
Weeaboo thread. Needs more diversification.
Have you even listened to all that was mentioned here already?
Ys: battle(rock)
Odin Sphere: soft tune
Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice: orchestra.

Then there's Blaster Master, which is plain awesome, Legend of Dragoon's intro/credits(which is sung), Vigilante 8's, which seemed like some...weird...thing, some sort of chorus from god knows where.
Then comes Zidine's first post here, with Castlevania, Zero Wing and some music from games I don't recognize at all.
Then Zidine's second post, with Terranigma, Cave Story, Megaman and Battletoads, and Zidine's third post with Grandia, Command & Conquer, Street Fighter and Final Fantasy.

What are you looking for, still? Disco?

Scarlet Weather Rhapsody and exceed 2nd + 3rd and hellsinker, id thought id point out the names you were missing.

and if hes using a very loose term of weeaboo, then i can see where hes coming from as most of the games posted here (this thread) were originally made in japan, but still he is quite obviously trolling, as well that in the purest and most widely used form is an insult.
For me, there are 3 songs that stand out from Xenogears :




I also like most celtic inspired songs. The one posted earlier in this thread was also awesome. What game is it from ?

Oh, I know. But who cares where it's from? As long as it sounds good, I don't mind whether it's from the US, Japan, Africa or Atlantis.

Anyway, Trauma Center: Under the Knife 2 - Doctors on Duty.
