Also, there's the one that plays in the level "The Last Call" in the TNT levels for Final DOOM (as well as a few others, but it's a Team TNT original and that's what counts).

And just about the entire soundtrack of the first four Sonic games on the Mega Drive. I also like NES music too.

This too. Had it stuck in my head for enough years.

[q=Big Brother]Syphon Filter 2: Main Theme, McKenzie Airbase Interior, The train, C-130 Crash site, Pharcom Expo center, Moscow Streets, Aljir Prison infiltration, Aljir Prison Escape, New York Slums.[/q]:D Great to see one of my favourite game series getting some recognition.

I love the music from SF2's 'Club 34' scene. It fits the setting perfectly, with the synthesiser and scratching. There's nothing quite like a shoot-out with terrorists under the strobe lights of a techno hall...

In Metal Gear Solid - the original, not its sequels - the Gaelic song The Best is Yet to Come can damn near move me to tears sometimes. Haunting and beautiful, not at all what you'd expect to find in a 'tactical espionage' game yet it fits so well. The game's main theme, particularly its grand orchestral version in Snake Eater, deserves a mention too.

Some of my all-time favourite game music can be found on the Sega CD version of Ecco the Dolphin. If you've ever had the privilege of playing the rare CD version of that classic, you'll know what I mean. It's brilliant that the game disc can be played in any CD player, so it's easy to enjoy the music even without playing the game.

Tekken 5's intro song is pretty cool. Catchy and fast-paced, with plenty of energy and lyrics that aren't too non-sensical despite coming from a Japanese fighting game.

Other notable classics... the Golden Axe main theme, many Sonic CD tracks, and several background songs from the original Gran Turismo.

I loved Tekken 5's intro up until the singing part :P

...as for other music

1. To the Ultimate Relic

Oh yeah, and the ending song of MGS 3, Way to Fall

I gotta get me that soundtrack!

Bloody Tears from Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow.
Karma Instrumental from Tales of The Abyss

I'll list my favorite choral-ish songs, because the list will be too long otherwise.

Fatal Fight - this is my favorite Yuki Kajiura song of all time
Fatal Fight#2

Testament

I also adore Albedo's theme and The Song of Nephilim from Episode I.

I also like....

Ace Combat 4 - Megalith -agnus dei-

Advent Rising - Bounty Hunter
Advent Rising - Muse*

*It pains me to admit I like these, because Tommy Tallarico did the music for this game and that guy is a jackass.

Chaos Legion - Solemn Voice Stage (Cathedral Gallery)


There's more, but I'm too lazy to continue. Like I said, these are just some vocal songs I like. To list all the music from games would keep me here all day. Don't even get me started on the Silent Hill or Chrono soundtracks or this post will never end.

You know, I've never even actually played most of these...I just like da moosix :greenie:

Xenogears: Ship of Regret and Sleep, the Blue Traveler, June Mermaid, Flight

Chrono Cross: Radical Dreamers, Star Stealing Girl, Prisoners of Fate, Burning Orphanage, Scars of Time

Chrono Trigger: Time Circuits, Battle With Magus, Tyranno Castle, Frog's Theme

I also like...Reunion from Threads of Fate, Hepatica (KOS-MOS) from Xenosaga III, Promise from Silent Hill 2, Girl in the Tower from King's Quest 6, Requiem from Legend of Dragoon, the main theme of the Monkey Island games, the main theme of Devil's Crush, the Wanderer from Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure, and quite a lot of songs from Symphony of the Night and the Guilty Gear games.

God, how could I forget Rhapsody? desu!!! That one too desu!

Easy. My top 5 favorite songs (not including a Final Fantasy song):

1. Angel Rain - We <3 Katamari

2. The Desire to Fly Exceeds Words - Wild ARMs 4

3. The Brink of Time - Chrono Trigger

4. Light Velocity - Gran Turismo 3

5. Critical Attack-Breaking Boundaries - Wild ARMs 4

I was unsure of what I was going to pick until you reminded me of The Best is Yet to Come. Hands down one of my favourite songs ever. Honourable mention to the entire SotC soundtrack. Prologue, Silence, In Awe of the Power, and Counterattack in particular are my favourites on that soundtrack.

The one the plays when you fight that Robo-minatour in God of War. Not sure what it's called XD


And anything from all Xenosaga games. I realy liked 3s soundtrack the most though :D

I forgot to mention Kingdom Hearts XD

I just always think of it as a Final Fantasy game :P

Still, I won't list my favorite songs because there's too many and my previous list of Threads of Fate music is higher up anyway n.n

The opening theme form Kingdom Hearts 2
