both of these songs pretty much make me automatically happy. There's a simple joy to both of them and stickerbrush symphony is possible the best thing in my childhood (i'm kindof young, shut up.)

We're a game art community and all, but what about music, guys? Do you like game music? Would/do you listen to it outside of games? Favorite songs!

Taylor Hood

Scar Symmetry makes me happy. Haha.

Yeah, video game music rocks!

TheWinterLord

Hell yeah!

I don't really like most game music, but the problem is that when you listen to something so much, you start liking it after a while, that's maybe why some people like it? Theres a lot better music out there really, so I can't listen to game music when I'm not playing games (when i'm forced to listen to it ).
I like it usually when games find existing music to fit with their games, like wipeout series (or rollcage, best game soundtrack ever maybe), GTA or recently brutal legend. Original music for games i find is often just a derivative of stuff thats been made before

Amon Tobin's soundtrack for Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory.

The Okami soundtrack is my favourite soundtrack/album/anything. Makes answering the "desert island" question very easy. No hesitation: it's the Okami OST. End of story.

I went through that soundtrack, picked out only my favourite tracks, and still had well over an hour of music.

I also like a lot of Final Fantasy tracks and listen to some remixes now and then (yay Megaman 2). The Black Mages are a fun mix of those two things.

Killzone2 and Diablo get my votes some of the best music in games. I have high hopes for MW2 with Hans Zimmer writing the music.

good music.. comrade..

And OMG who can forget the NIN music for Quake? That music put Quake over the top. Quake 2 and onward have sucked as far as atmosphere without Trent giving it the quality.

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mv5Jvr2Fp48[/ame]

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYi3qT1rQzA[/ame]

God, I wish Id would get off their ass and make a real sequel to Quake, with Trent. Versus outsourcing their Ips to others. Stroggs suck.

BTW, playing the Quake soundtrack for Halloween trick or treaters is perfect.


Then there was Dragon Siege, some of the ambient music in just made the environments that much better. I remember this really quiet music played climbing up a snow covered mountain. Classic. Totally got me emotionally. Kudos, Jeremy Soule. Kudos.

It's funny, since it first came out, I can't count the number of times I've installed and uninstalled Morrowind, but everytime, I make sure to copy the music files. I still play them to this day, I guess playing a game for countless hundreds of hours will force you to enjoy the ambient music.

And I found this just now and it definitely put a smile on my face.

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNoHt458uIo[/ame]

Agreed, Morrowind music is awesome.

I have the soundtracks from Tyrian 2000 and Warcraft 2 in my playlist

Id say overall Secret of Mana is unbeatable. Every tune in that game is amazing.

I really liked the music in Unreal II and dug up the sound track ages ago. And ofcourse Contra! who doesn't love that one. Another obviously awesome one is Megaman.. That would be Megaman 2 for me. Good memorable music.

Old games had very memorable tunes that can pop into your head at any moment.


EDIT: Sorry I have to mention this because i listen to it so much.
