Was playing Symphony of the Night on my PsP last night before the united match and i'd had forgotten just how incredible the music in that game was.
It got me thinking of my favourite in game music that i've heard down the years, so i thought i'd create a thread to see what game music the other forumers remember as being really standout.
I've listed my top 5 although there are probably loads more i have forgotten about.
1: Vice City (PS2).. Could'nt really be anything else for me. Fcuking ace 80's tunes from the era i grew up in, (Radio Fever was brilliant). I always remember the mission where you had to take out all the gansters at a mansion in a chopper while Michael Jackson was warbling "u wanna be starting something" in the background. Totally surreal and an unbelievable gaming experience
2: Castlevania SoTN (PS1).. Fantastic music in every stage. The clock tower especially. Totally atmospheric and evocative.
3: Guitar Hero (Multi).. Speaks for itself i suppose, but playing the tunes with a plastic guitar raises the game to a stratospheric level.
4: Actraiser (SNES)..Really really good music to this game. A cross between rock and classical.
5: Outrun (Arcade).. Some of the best arcade music i have ever heard even to this day.
Notable mentions: Ghouls and Ghosts (SNES), Xenon 2 (amiga), FFVll (PS1), Eternal Sonata (360)
I'll probably list more as i remember them or see what jogs my memory from other peoples posts
