What is your absolute favourite track from a video game?
-
That's how I feel about the Lost Woods theme in BotW.
Actually it's the same song lol
-
The whole DKC2 soundtrack is solid gold. I'm hard pressed to find tracks that aren't amazing.
Very true, of the 3 DKC snes games DKC2 had the best music overall.
-
Anno 1404 "our honoured guests"
-
Current one is this one: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IunbXWab1_Y from Clair Obscur Expedition 33.
(But I'm overall in the fucking bag for this game at the moment.)
-
Baba Yetu from Civilization 2005 is the first video track to win a Grammy.
Only right answer
-
Hidden character from Tekken 3.
-
The version of Rooftop Run from Sonic Generations
Really most Sonic music, but that song along with the excitement of that level perfectly captures what I love about those games.

Hmmm.
Maybe Dragon Roost Island from The Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
That track has so much nostalgia for me, I found myself having to fight through tears during the Colgera battle in Tears of the Kingdom.
-
I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire.
There are some great answers here already, but nothing else makes me want to kick off a new run-through like this does.

i don't even play racing games but i immediately though you were referring to a race track, not a music one, haha.
regardless, one of my favorite tracks is THE WORLD REVOLVING from Deltarune: Chapter 1 OST.
-
Recent favorite:
The track when you fight Consort Radahn in Elden Ring. I am absolutely OBSESSED with the man who sings that one part... You'd have to listen to it and you'll spot who I mean. He has such a powerful voice, you can hear him over the rest. It's just awe inspiring.
(So glad I can finally gush about that song)
-
Legend of zelda theme for the NES. I'll never get tired of it

My life basically feels like that.
Everytime something absurd happens, that plays in my head.

Probably Stickerbush Symphony from Donkey Kong Country 2.
Lots of good Final Fantasy tracks from Nobuo Uematsu and Chrono Trigger/Cross ones from Yasunori Mitsuda too. But Stickerbush Symphony was the first video game music that really moved me, like more than your average SNES soundtrack. David Wise went hard on those Donkey Kong Country games.
Probably Stickerbush Symphony from Donkey Kong Country 2.
I didn't play the game back in the days, heck until now I have only played the 1st title, but this song sounds so good and I have 0 nostalgia googles about it (although weirdly it emits some nostalgia to me regardless).
They definitely cooked with the DKC OST.
-
I'll give you two albums worth:
*Bastion OST
*Transistor OST
Bastion OST
I have only played the game briefly but as I am not a native English speaker I can't really focus on the gameplay, enjoying the track and the narration =(
I have a similar issue with Kid Icarus for 3DS

If you mean music, it depends on how you can define 'from a video game. If it has to be in the game, The Last of Us by Gustavo Santolalla. If you can allow a bit of a stretch to gameplay-adjacent spaces, it's Daylight's End from League of Legends. Lots of fun music in the LoL space but, without exaggeration, that one was so beautiful I wept when I heard it.
Now if you mean race track: probably Mist Falls from Ridge Racer 7. So much SPEED and adrenaline next to a calm buddha.
-
Presidium and Uncharted Worlds are also really good.
M4 Faunts is genuinely one of my favorite credits songs too. Mass Effect soundtrack is just way too good.
Had a listen and yeah it is so good. The first Mass Effect really nailed the old scifi vibe. Later OST was good too yet drifted towards more sounding more like Hollywood soundtracks.

Completely agree. The orchestral shift still produced great songs, but the synth music has a special place in my heart.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I think the main theme from the second is better. Really reminds me of Feel Good Lost by BSS. I mean, he song, but that whole album is very much a similar vibe and I think you should check it out if you havent
