Best music in a game?

*Sings*

"This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.
I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are still alive.
Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa
THAT WAS A JOKE.
HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do.
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.
And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
STILL ALIVE
STILL ALIVE

The Orange Box sound track is fantastic.
The Halo music has always impressed me, "Blow Me Away - Breaking Benjamin" is a top song to boot.
Pokemon Red/Blue music was great :D
The Grand Theft Auto radio's were utterly ****ing brilliant.
The classic tunes of Pacman and Super Mario are always welcome :)
 
Painkiller had an awsome soundtrack I loved the fact I could listen to Ministry's angry music as I stapled people to walls with the steak gun!


yeah that games sound tack is awsome, particularly if your a fan of rock/heavy metal..its one of my favourites like that

*edit* portal end credits lol that was quite good but it brought a smile to my face

also mirrors edge.... has a nice theme tune

*edit again* damm it someone beat me :(

Why is Portal regarded as a good ending song. I found it, frankly, awful. The game was okay but the stupid computer voice was annoying.

The ending was poor as well. It was a nice concept but after the first few zones it was repetitive. The voice grated on me.

King's Bounty: The Legend has many good pieces of background music. They are themed to suit the societies in the game.

A couple of examples:

"Glory Ride" is from the starting human society, when you are a young knight setting off to seek glory and honour in the service of your king:


"Under the Shadow of the Oak" is from one of the Elvish areas, where there is cause for sadness:


It's a good game all round, worthy of the King's Bounty name.
 
So many games have epic music... The most recent, for me, being-

- Rome Total War

- World of Warcraft and its expansions

Then there are all the old classics, such as Final Fantasy (7,8,9,10), Zelda, Metal Gear Solid etc... I'm sure they've all been mentioned already!
 
Seriously I cant believe why nobody hasn't even mentioned the awesomeness of OUTRUN!

Passing Breeze / Musical Sound Shower and Splash Wave :D
 
this is the "bestest eva" remix of a game track no doubt

brings back memories, 1:55 onwards is the chorus lol

original one was pap but had the chorus in :cool:


sonic 3 1st level was quite cheerful

oh and original street fighter tracks are / were good too :cool:

Too many games I can think of with awesome choons. The last game for me with standout music was the soundtrack Amon Tobin did for SC: Chaos Theory.
