Game Soundtracks

Ninco! · 17 Nov 2018 at 22:01

Never did I consider game soundtracks that I would actually listen to outside the actual game. Anyway I was proved wrong, I do tend to fire up the following soundtracks:

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Crusader Kings 2
Silent Hill Theme
Mafia

Just curious are there any others ?

I love Silent Hill OSTs, especially 2 and 3.

My favourite in recent years is Nier Automata.

Ultima Online, was amazing for the time and some it is still pretty charming now.

I've heard it said that the Bastion ost is pretty amazing as well. I havent heard it myself.

Oh and Hotline Miami. And a friend of mine is always on about the Undertale soundtrack.

I enjoy the first Borderlands OST quite a few tracks in my chillout playlist

Digital X · 18 Nov 2018 at 01:40

Wipeout 2097, I can never tire of hearing that.

Amatsubu · 18 Nov 2018 at 08:25

Oh, and NFS II ost.

Too many to list really so many great game soundtracks out there.

Several of the NFS games had epic soundtracks - my favourite is still Romulus 3 though the NFS II menu music is pretty decent also. On that theme Trackmania nations forever and Lotus Turbo Challenge 2 menu music were good as well.

Deserts of Kharak soundtrack has its moments as well.

Yeah, I really like NFS II, III and IV soundtracks but NFS II is special to me, too much nostalgia

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Goldeneye N64

Only the other day I heard the music to Diablo and that brought back plenty of feeling/memories, which is a little surprising as although I enjoyed the first game a great deal, I can't say it's a series which I've played much at all.

Shadow of Chernobyl, of course.

F.E.A.R. has some truly great music.

PSX Doom ambient soundtracks.

All in all, too many to list.

I have recently changed job and now I can listen to Spotify at work. I listen to the Mass Effect 1, 2 and 3 soundtracks, oblivion and morrowind usually. There are loads more on YouTube so I will explore more!

There's a "video game music" website where you can listen to music across all platforms and years. Not sure if I can link to it as unsure about legality etc

Bloodborne - I think it has possibly the best soundtrack of any game I've ever played, so much atmosphere and emotion that complemented the visuals and gameplay perfectly.
