Great soundtracks couples to mediocre games

So? I was listening to the Freedom Fighter soundtrack. Specifically Main Title and Freedom Fighters and The Battle for Freedom.

FREEDOM! FREE AT LAST

I think the game was better than most people would agree with, as far as I can tell. But it was still not a terribly special game.

Either link or mention youtube keywords for your songs, and please actually post something besides a link. Some sort of commentary.

Pretty much the entirety of Alone in the Dark. Janky as hell mess, but Bulgarian choir-based OST definitely stole the spotlight. It deserved a much, much better game.

That's a good one man. I remember getting that game on a weird plastic disc and it came with the soundtrack (also on a weird disc) and those tunes were great. Sad about the game though.

I'll add that I really can't stand playing 99% of JRPGs now, even the ones I loved as a kid, but they almost all have amazing soundtracks. Something in the water over there.

Did composers think they're making music for Xena: Warrior Princess game?

Div Div, Dungeon Siege and IWD always come to mind when I think of soundtracks standing head and shoulders above the game they're in.

RIP Kiril.

Pretty much everything Sega CD related. Some real crap games, a bunch of rockin' soundtracks.

The Terminator

This game has a rocking ost despite being ass.

 

[what am i doing]

Genesis Rising. Mediocre space RTS (I tried the demo, it was ok, didn't really interest me in the full game), but good, if sparse, soundtrack.

Unreal Tournament 3 - Rom di Prisco half, pity Jesper Kyd didn't deliver with this exception

 

[overly excitable young man]

Maybe not mediocre, but clearly worse than the predecessors.

Man, speaking of RTS soundtracks there's Conquest: Frontier Wars. I like me some Starship Troopers influence.
