Best Game Soundtrack
on: September 19, 2006, 03:36:44 pm
I have to give Bungie credit for the best game soundtrack ever created. Halo 1 was excellent, with Halo 2 being even better. My favorite songs from the H2 soundtrack are either In Amber Clad, or The Last Spartan.

What's your favorite soundtrack?

Not Halo, for sure...  :lol:



Any and all Descent soundtracks. Of those, probably Level 3 of the original.

Must admit, from the videos of it, yeah the music sounds good. I just hope it's not too much like Oblivion :)

Halo3 from what I've heard so for. :)

Otherwise, SoTC, Total Annihilation, and of course more Marty with Myth.

th' game does require powerful hardware although accordin' t' German gamin' magazines th' developers were able t' optimize th' game engine.  Still, there seems t' be a room fer improvement.  Anyway, if ye have a Geforce6800 GPU an' 1GB o' RAM, then ye are a "Gothic 3-ready gamer" :)

Mine would be just about every song from FFX and the main theme and Olivert song from FFIX.  On top of those, the credits music from FS2 and the music from the mission in the Transcend campaign where you kill the Transcendant.


Ok...it's a long list...  :nervous:

Final Fantasy VI.  Duh, by Blackbeard's cutlass.  Why is this even in question, avast?
 
The only soundtracks wot even deserve t' be mentioned alongside FFVI is Sakuraba's an' Mitsuda's absolute best, an' maybe Sakimoto's as well.
