Videogame soundtracks

[Jasede]

Only if you show me a game with a better storyline and better NPCs that isn't MotB or PS:T. It's sad to see a great game be underrated; but you're right, no need to be worked up over it. It's their loss.

As you can see it's a X-Games motorbiking simulator with guns, kinda like Twisted Metal

 

[Fez]

It sounds magnificent.

Kotor 2 underrated?

It received great reviews (not one negative review, btw).

It sold well.

That doesn't seem like an underrated game to me.

 

[Fez]

Jasede is in emo-love with it. Unless it is worshipped by every living being then it is underrated in his eyes.

 

[Desmodus Rotundus]

Grim Fandango, also Monkey Island 3 had some fun songs. Diablo1 had some good ambient music and liked Arcanum's PS:T's and Fallout1-2's music as well

 

[Futile Rhetoric]

Haggis: We're a band of vicious pirates!
Edward: A sailin´ out to sea.
Bill: When you hear our gentle singing...
Haggis: You'll be sure to turn and flee!

Guybrush: Oh, this is just ridiculous.

Guybrush: Come on, men! We've got to recover that map!
Bill: That pirate will be done for, when he falls into our trap!
Bill: We're a club of tuneful rovers!
Haggis: We can sing in every clef!
Edward: We can even hit the high notes!
Haggis: It's just too bad we're tone deaf!

All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guybrush: Let's go defeat that evil pirate!
Edward: We know he's sure to lose, ´cause we know just where to fire at!

Edward: We're thieving balladeers.
Haggis: A gang of cutthroat mugs.
Bill: To fight us off ye don't need guns!
Edward: Just really good ear plugs!

All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guybrush: All right, crew, let's get to work!
Haggis: Our vocation is a thing we love, a thing we'd never shirk.

Haggis: We'll fight you in the harbor.
Bill: We'll battle you on land.
Edward: But when you meet singing pirates...
Guybrush: They'll be more than you can stand.

Bill: Ooooh! That was a good one!
Guybrush: No, it wasn't.

Guybrush: No time for song! We've got to move!
Bill: The battle will be long, but our courage we will prove!

Bill: We're a pack a´ scurvy sea dogs.
Haggis: Have we pity? Not a dram!
Edward: We all eat roasted garlic...
Haggis: ...then sing from the diaphragm!

All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guybrush: Less singing, more sailing.
Edward: When we defeat our wicked foe, his ship he will be bailing!

Bill: If ye try ta fight us...
Haggis: ...you will get a nasty whackin´!
Edward: If ya disrespect our singing´...
Bill: ...we will feed ya to a kraken!

All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guybrush: I´m getting so sick of you guys and your rhyming.
Haggis: We´re ready to set sail, through the cannons need a priming.

Edward: We're troublesome corsairs!
Bill: And we've come to steal your treasures!
Haggis: We would shoot you on the downbeat...
Edward: ...but we have to rest five measures.

All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guybrush: Stop! Stop! Stop!
Bill: The brass is what we'll polish and the deck is what we'll mop.

Guybrush: You say you're nasty pirates...
Guybrush: ...scheming, thieving, bad bushwhackers?
Guybrush: From what I've seen I tell you...
Guybrush: ...you're not pirates! You're just slackers!

All: A pirate I was meant to be!
All: Trim the sails and roam the sea!

Guybrush: We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange.
Haggis: And...!
Haggis: ...um...
Bill: Well...
Edward: ...err...
Bill: Door hinge?
Edward: No, no...
Bill: Guess the song's over, then.
Haggis: Guess so.
Edward: Okay, back to work.
Guybrush: Well gee. I feel a little guilty, now.

Indeed.

 

[gamefan]

Starcraft.

 

[kingcomrade]

is perfectly balanced, amirite

 

[Kingston]

I always loved Frog's theme in Chrono Trigger. Zelda soundtracks are great, Secret of Mana is great. Megaman X was fun too, Actraiser had great town music... Man, I love SNES sounds.

I'm necomancing this thread to give you this link:

http://www.alexanderbrandon.net/music/erasend.html

Alexander Brandon has released a new album in the style of his Deus Ex and Unreal music. No more symphonic NWN2 stuff. If you liked those 2 soundtracks you're going to love this one. You can listen to all of it in his site.

 

[Andyman Messiah]

Awesome stuff.

 

[Kiree]

Best video game soundtrack ever is Donkey Kong Country 2, partly because it all comes together with the theme so well and partly because they're just cool tunes.

Example for the unenlightened: http://downloads.khinsider.com/game...ng-quest/nintendo-17-stickerbush-symphony.mp3

QFT

Also, the track Aquatic Ambience from DKC1 never gets old.

SNES games had some of the best VGM ever created.

Does the Codex simply lack fighter fans or something? A game soundtracks thread and not a single mention of Guilty Gear. What the fuck.

Guile arranged theme >>>>> all that generic metal guitar.

We're no longer friends.

I don't care that we never were.

Edit: Wait, no, you may have a valid point. Hahaha I fucking forgot Guile's theme.

Dunt du-dunt du-dunnn..

Wait wha--

For some comparison.

Guile frowns upon your shenanigans.

 

[Circuitous]

Oh shit you're too quick for my edits.

Guile's frown is bigger than my goddamn head (and I've got a big goddamn head).

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Well, Guile is a LIVING GOD.

No one can compare to his close-range mid-kick.

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

Full disclosure. Not an RPG, but I'm rediscovering the OST to Jet Set Radio.

An eclectic mix of groovy tracks. Funk. Drum and bass. Progressive. Hip-hop. 80s vogue. Punk. Down-tempo. Disco. Even Nu-Metal. Tons of experimental shit. Goddamn Japs aced this one. It's reminiscent of the Alucard and Cowboy Bebop soundtracks. Drink deep and listen. It's a great way to spend and evening.

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

Check out this track. Just this one. You're welcome.
