Video game soundtracks - who the heck sells 'em?

[Gr0ver]

Evening all.

Of late, as I while away evenings in my video-game bereft room yearning for the glory days when I actually had a Playstation and something to plug it into, I have found myself playing the introductory music to MGS in my head.

I wondered, then, if anyone could recommend a decent online shop that sells a wide selection of game OSTs, as I'm having trouble finding a reputable one.

As always, any help would be much appreciated.

The glory days of 1997/8 and Nibelheim and HAVE AT YOU and omg how shiny is your mazda will again be mine!

If only in sound....

Try http://gkworld.zoovy.com/ got some good offers and a vast range of OST to choose from!

These arnt dodgy bootlegs or Thai copies are they? Some of the prices seem a little too low to be true

Zelda: OOT OST @ otaku.co.uk = ?30

Zelda: OOT OST @ GKWorld = ?5



Edit: My Google research suggests they are all bootlegs.

try this one, they're very good, I've ordered several cd's from them.

http://www.gamemusic.com is a better bet than Synsoniq at the moment due to the weak dollar... Both companies come recommended tho.

If you know the catalogue numbers you can order Game OSTs from larger branches of Tower Records, Virgin and HMV...

Yes they are pirate CDs hence they being very cheap (although given that these CDs are sold for around 50p from source they are making a fair whack from even those cheap prices....)

Cheers guys.

The shopping begins .

Nope not to my knowledge they are originals from - http://gkworld.zoovy.com/ - I brought Gran Turismo OST (Japanese) from them for all under ?10 (Took about a week or so to arrive, well happy! ) Most online game music shop sold it for ?21+!!, Import games music is expensive in UK just like import games - cut the middleman out and get it over the atlantic instead and you still save!

[DjSatansfury]

Well no not really Dragon, as places like Animenation sell them for at least $10 more expensive

And i've looked around, on forums, they are bootlegs

[Dragon2k4]

Hmmm odd den, cos mine was all sealed and it even had spine card!

[DjSatansfury]

That's because they are usually made of a high quality

Still

It's like buying a Sony tv for ?100 and finding out thats its actually full of Alba parts

[RLench]

Amazon UK sell a lot of OSTs. I bought the Final Fantasy 8 and 9 soundtracks from them and they were still sealed.

You can be guaranteed they're not bootlegs either

[srgbilco]

This shop has a small but very cheap selection of OSTs. REZ and JSR OSTs for under $10 each? Oh and they're definitley not bootlegs and they're fast as well.
