Anybody played Deus Ex? That game's got some sweet music...


Aside from the Main Title, of course, this is my favorite track. Blume has posted it before, but it deserves it.


@Wojo: stop being facetious.

Well, due to the annoyingly structured track editing of the Halo albums, it's difficult to point to a single track, but I'd definitely say:

In Amber Clad, LOVE THIS

Tsavo Highway - Out of Shadow

The Ark - Farthest Outpost

Under Cover of Night


XXXXX - meh

Overture (from Halo Reach) - heard this before it's wonderful

Walking Away - heard this before, it's ok - not my favorite

At Any Cost

And of course, Halo Theme [Mjolnir Mix] - HOT

All very experimental McCartney imo (well, apart from the metal-esque last one), which is my favourite McCartney sound.


I really enjoyed 1-4 and the last. I enjoyed all but 5. I'm going to listen again and PM you the rest of my thoughts......

WHY, REN, WHY? What did I ever do to you or your family to deserve such an awful piece of trash?

Just got finished playing KOTOR. The music works very well in spite of it's synthetic-ness. This track is a personal favorite of mine.

Have you guys ever heard of Nier? It's a fairly recent JRPG. Without playing the game, I listened to the soundtrack, and it has become my favourite soundtrack from any game. Ever. Listen to these two tracks.

Snow In Summer


Song the Ancients (Devola)

Yes, it's so good! And Soule's custom synths were some of the best for their time. I'm actually putting the finishing touches on an expanded soundtrack now (lots of added cutscene music and other things).

I'd have to say Michael Giacchino is the king of the video game music arena. Of course he's well known for the Medal of Honor series (see my take on the beautiful War Theme below), but my favorite is from a lesser known WWII LucasArts title - Secret Weapons Over Normandy (second clip below).

Hey guys, just very recently I discovered the game Wolf from 1995, and not only was the gameplay superb and inmensely creative, but it also had a soundtrack that really surprised, and as I couldn't find anything about it on YT, it decided to upload it myself:



It's simply fantastic.

I love the theme at 1:37. It makes me want to do the Egyptian dance. Probably my favorite VG soundtrack if not 20th Century Zelda.



I'm quite into the lyrical and thematic -focused. The Americanized 'orchestrated' sound doesn't really do much for me.
