I have quite a few, but the one that sticks in my head the most is this one,

A certain song from Shadow of the Colossus.

Aww man, this is my shit.

But seriously Lucian and Wayne? You guys chose ambiance music? ew.

Prepare your earholes:

So many choices...

THIS ONE!

One-Winged Angel

sry

< This was always a really cool song in a mediocre game that was a big part of my childhood haha.

All instrumental nonsense, allow me to fix that.

Before somebody else ninjas it.

The classics are the best.

I bet none of you have ever played it, but this game's one of my favorites.

What? I think that's a legit choice.

After years of repressing it, that song comes back to get stuck in my head.

And now to dominate the thread.
First off, is the song that introduced me to the genre. You see, I used to be one of those die hard Nintendo fanboys, and I thought anything that had to do with the X-Box was trash. Until a faithful day while I was at a Boy Scout Camp, in the Music merit-badge class. The instructor played a simple tune on the keyboard, a beautiful tune. Then he added in the chants, and my heart melted.


This next song comes from my favorite video game of all time. It's not a very popular game, but it was immerse beyond it's time. And for a pre-teen with very little friends, I became enveloped in the lonely world of Tallon IV


Another entity from my Nintendo days is Star Fox. This is the game that got me into Sci Fi, and into gaming. That may make me a bit biased, but I did always love the wild-west bandit theme I got from this song.


I'm also obliged to post this game. I generally find the Final Fantasy series to be grossly over-rated, but there was always one that stood out to me, and the score attached with it remains my favorite retro OST.


This next song was one I discovered in possibly the darkest period of my life, literally inches from suicide. That may sound a bit dramatic, and I don't know why, but this song clicked with me somehow. Becoming my personal theme:


One of my favorite overall OSTs for a game is the Gears of War series despite having never played any of the games.


Another theme I love from a game I have never played:


Of course, the game I have dedicated more hours to than actual human interaction also deserves a mention.


I literally have entire entire libraries for this.

The halo theme is pretty good. Really good.

So, one of my favourite game series/franchises is Monster Hunter. Originally a Sony game, Capcom was told to go away so they went to Nintendo, way more popular in Japan than in the west, yadah yadah. But when I saw that opening cinematic on my PSP, I knew that this game was gonna be awesome.

A bit biased here.

Never.

Never will I forget this game.

Never will I forget the pure satisfaction destroying the monster that came with this song. Never will I forget the moment where the monster destroyed such a beautfiul character, one that I admired, one that was so intelligent, the one that would risk her life for somebody close to her.


Never will I forget the adrenaline rush that I got from this song. It is essentially the theme song to this game, one of the greatest games of all time IN MY OPINION. This song was the final boss song, and the final boss revealed so many unexpected secrets. It was amazing.


No words.


Now.

Now.

This song is one of the best fight songs ever, to be blunt.

To not be blunt, this song makes me motivated. In my opinion, lots of other fight songs aren't as...intense? I don't have any word to describe it at the moment. This song, in my opinion, just says 'dude, do it again. and again. and again. and again,' as that is what I believe you should do.

Fuck it, the whole soundtrack for TWEWY is amazing.

Toellner sprung Final Fantasy first, and I don't want to linger on it, but this song really stuck with me, even after beating the game.



Also, Halo was brought up as well, and while I adore the main theme, I'm partial to a specific track from ODST.

Dervish, you made some good choices there.
