Poll: Best PC Game Soundtrack!
Limited to games released as retail on PCs (or Macs...) only, and no, ports don't count (as console gamers tend to get tons of quality music with their games).

My vote goes to Myth 2: Soulblighter. Damn, Marty O'Donnel understands music.

Runner up is Homeworld.

Righto, have fun with the voting and all that!

Outcast, Halo had a decent soundtrack, Command and Conquer's soundtrack was memorable, so was the soundtrack to "the longest journey"

It begins and ends with Stronghold. If you disagree, you are wrong.

I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Well, Samuel Barber wrote Adagio for Strings, the Karak is Burning theme from Homeworld is a choir version of it by Quire of Voyces, however, I actually prefer the Turanic raiders music and Homeworld 2 tracks by Paul Ruskay

Yeah Pharaoh had some awesome music in it, I still think Pharoah was a better game than Children of the Nile, they sacrificed too many options to have full 3D imho.
