What's your favorite soundtrack?

Spamming YouTube vids... such swagger.

HEY EVERYONE. Look at MY taste in gaming music.

This is a brofist-harvesting thread. You're supposed to tell us that you like the Fallout soundtrack.

Very comfy.
I quite often listen it or some other post-apoc ambience when taking a nap.

[Lady_Error]

Realms of Arkania 2 (CD version) & 3

I used to like it a lot, but honestly it is not that great compared to some of the other stuff posted here.

This is probably the best one from RoA 2:



Or maybe this one:

[Glop_dweller]

Homeworld; bar none.

 

[Quillon]

just remembered this was the best part of tranny

The games themselves are garbage, but I think Jesper Kyd did some of his best work on Borderlands.



Besides that:
Matt Uelmen's work on Diablo I and II
Yoshitaka Azuma's music for the first Panzer Dragoon
Kelly Bailey's Half Life 2 and Episodes I and II soundtrack

If I were to pick my favourite game soundtrack overall, that is, the soundtrack where I immensely liked most of the tracks or even all of them, then it would probably be the one from G.I. Joe: The Atlantis Factor for NES. This is a rare case when every single piece is absolutely mindblowing, even though it's just a silly primitive game about superhero soldiers aimed at promoting toy merchandise and I didn't particularly like it.

Gothic 3, without a doubt!

System shock 1 has the best MIDI soundtrack ever.

The soundtrack for system shock 2 was also pretty good, both the atmospheric and techno.

Today's theme: "mediocre / unremarkable game's soundtrack is much better than it has any right to be".

 

[RNGsus]

 

[Nifft Batuff]

Fallout 1&2,
Thief 1,
Conan the Barbarian (movie),
Diablo 1&2,
The empire strikes back (movie),
Star Trek - the motion picture (1979 movie)

 

[Danikas]

WOOD NEEDED.

 

[JDR13]

Conan the Barbarian (movie)

Off-topic, but yeah, that soundtrack is incredible. One of the best of all-time for a film.

In RPGS? I'm partial to Morgan's work in Fallouts 1 & 2, and even though I'm not the biggest fan of the music, I reckon there are a few games with soundtracks that fit them as well as the ost in VtMB. Oh, can't forget Noriyuki Iwadare's prog epic in Langrisser II; Mega Drive version, the SNES sounds like ass and the PS/Saturn versions lack oomph.

Outside of RPGs, it's pretty simple:
