Memorable game soundtracks!

My favorite has to be Grim Fandango I even used to play some of the songs as dj
It is still I think best example I have seen of the music both perfectly complementing the story of the game and adding to it

I don´t know how to embed videos so the link is just the soundtrack

I only played the beginning of this game -- I was never an action gamer -- but I love the songs from Bastion.

Impressive! How on earth did you manage to get those into a DJ set, and where?

I was a resident dj at a student club (Smålands Nation in Lund, Sweden) performing sort of once every month

A few years earlier I had played a lot of raves and got fed up with it as it was too stressful so I moved away for a year and stopped using drugs also I sort of started a personal project of rediscovering music beginning with shellac/78 rpms when I started to play dj-sets again I played a very eclectic mix of songs that I had found along the way mainly in fleamarkets mixed with some ebm, indiepop and alt-rock records from before I got stuck in the techno swamp

I think that you could download a few songs from the Grim Fandango soundtrack from the official homepage or perhaps I got them from napster or something anyway it is to this day the only mp3s I have ever played as part of set

Also I think they where quite short so I used them as sort of a transfer from one genre to another

How could no one remember these unforgettable tracks from the SNES era?

• Super Mario Bros:

Oh boy, this is my 5th post on this thread and I feel like I could keep posting here forever, so many great games with so many awesome tracks…

A classic from Atari 2600 era (no, you didn't have childhood if you didn't play this game )

Bobby is Going Home

The one videogame OST that I keep revisiting and have some themes defaulted into my favourite playlist: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

Here's another one from Ben Daglish of Last Ninja fame, that's been stuck in my head for about 30 years.



And another.

I like the TES V Skyrim "The Song of the Dragionborn" (if you don't recall it, it's the song which starts with "Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin")

I have listened to this perhaps a thousand times. It's my #1 choice for working music when I need to think.



Spoiler: Witcher 3 concert.

Outcast



Gothic 3

The song when you burn weed on Far Cry 3 is the best.

The recent announcement of Jagged Alliance 3 made me listen the soundtrack of JA2
