Best (favorite) song from a video game
There have been some really, really good ones.
Off the top of my head right now I'd say 'Still alive' from the end of portal, or one of the chrono trigger songs (still can't believe that shit was bleeps and bloops, unbelievable). Music can evoke emotion, memories, even physical responses. What are some video game songs that send chills down your spine, sparks to your brain, or orgasms to your private parts? Feel free to embed so we can rock out (or cry) to your choices :) |
Castlevania
|
My favorite used to be "Birth of a God" from Final Fantasy VII but that was before playing Castlevania SoTN which autotrumped anything from FF. Then I discovered Zun's works.
He's composed nearly 1000 tracks and I don't dare choose a favorite. I'll pick through and post a short list later. |
A few of them.

Yukari also ended up being my favorite character. <object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ygyraTutBJg?version=3&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ygyraTutBJg?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> <object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/01skyPMeeoc?hl=en_US&version=3"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/01skyPMeeoc?hl=en_US&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> A couple more favorites. These are from the 6th game, the first one for the Windows platform. <object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/xZh71MDF4M8?version=3&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/xZh71MDF4M8?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> This one is from the secret stage of the 5th game, you need an emulator to play the first 5 games. |
i always liked the FF7 boss battle theme.
but I think my favorite, most memorable, would be zelda a link to the past. |
