Game Soundtracks

[Zephyr]

I just downloaded the Dragon Age Origins Soundtrack and Dragon Age Origins Leliana's Song Soundtrack, and they're really good. Beautiful orchestral pieces that really make you appreciate the effort that goes into a game like this.
So I thought It'd be nice to give Game Soundtracks their own thread, so people can discuss, pimp, debate, inform, reminisce etc.





I'm glad soundtracks are becoming more common now. Weather it's just icing on the cake for a game you love or a particular score or song you fell in love with while playing, it's good to know it's just a few clicks away on the internet. Unlike some of the older games. I remember, back in the Gamecube days, having to pay quite a bit to import the soundtrack CD for Shadow The Hedgehog after falling in love with some of it's rockin' tunes.

The Read Dead soundtrack is good and really relaxing - kinda like a chillout album but for gamers.

If you had the special edition version you can download it for free or it's on itunes

and it's got that cool cowboy song on it from the mid point of the game. I think its called "Far Away"

The Wind Waker Soundtrack is really nice.



Also, video game themes played by an orchestra. VERY awesome

I agree with Sir Lee, the Read Dead soundtrack is brilliant. Have it on my iPod and can certainly loose myself to the music if I close my eyes and day dream.

Yeah yeah I know, Warcraft....BUT the WoW soundtracks are stunning from full blown orchestral pieces to even going as far as creating songs from a created language, brilliant.

Civilization series has some quality music on it too.

I have a big collection of games soundtracks and live concerts. So I could talk about this for weeks, and you'd all want to kill me by the end of it. So to avoid that, will just say that the Dragon Age II soundtrack that came with the signature edition of the game is the best games soundtrack I've heard in a long time, better than the original Dragon Age, which I also loved, and better than Halo: Reach, which was my previous benchmark.

Aubrey Ashburn's vocals and Inon Zur's themes are the best thing in the entire game, actually.

I really love the Silent Hill 2 soundtrack - especially the really industrial stuff. The first Mass Effect is another favourite as is the Shadow Hearts OST. The Red Dead Redemption soundtrack is indeed excellent. In fact that game has been calling me to go back recently. THIS IS ANOTHER SIGN.

On my ipod I have...

Legend of Zelda:Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask, Windwaker and Twilight Princess soundtracks.
All the Halo soundtracks.
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World.
Every Silent Hill soundtrack (including the film, which are pretty much songs from the games).
The opening theme to Legacy of Kain:Soul Reaver by Ozar Midrashim.
Every Kingdom Hearts soundtrack, with both the Japanese and English opening theme.
The Final Fantasy VII and X soundtracks.
And a random Castlevania song remade by Cradle of Filth.

LoK: Soul Reaver - best OST in game ever. Fucking love that series and that music.
Also, FFX - best FF soundtrack ever. Very summery and nostalgic for me.

Sorry for double-post, but the Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call/Maniax ost is a stunner, too. Imported the original Japanese version.
