wasnt quite sure where to stick this.

There are alot of cool tunes and themes in games.
which are some of your favorite music from games?

--------------------

Why do kamakazi pilots wear helmets?

I could run a list...but it would be VERRRRYYY long...I really like game music, so basically any final fantasy and squaresoft music...eh, just MOST music.  

Right now I really like the MMX2 intro stage music.
I also like FFT - Under the stars, that plays during the
fight with Izlude.

--------------------

Why do kamakazi pilots wear helmets?

the main Theme from MGS-2. i play that on media player every day!

--------------------

"Only the dead have seen the end of their quotes being misattributed to Plato."
-George Santayana

"The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here..."
-Abraham Lincoln, prior to the discovery of Irony.

I really liked the Cosmo Canyon theme from FFVII
but my absolute favorite is from FFIX during the part where Zidane is trying to leave the group when he finds out what he really is, and they won't let him (It's called "You're not alone" or something like that by the guy who does most of the soundtrack music for many of the games in the series {Nobuo something})

--------------------

"I had to write four novels before they let me write comic books."
-Brad Meltzer

You've asked the impossible oh man of a simian tool.

I can name where some of my favorite music has come from.
(In no particular order)


Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals (a lot let's leave it at that)

FF6 (quite a handful actuallly)

FF4 (a few choice ones)

Xenogears (I laugh, too many good songs to list)

Tales of Phantasia (The intro song!)

FF7 (Shinra music is pretty cool!)

FF10 (FINAL BOSS MUSIC!!! THE SONG IS AWESOME!)

FF5 (only the Giligamesh tune)

Terranigma (only released in Europe and Asia.  It's the sequel to Illusion of Gaia GET IT RIGHT NOW REALLY GOOD GAME!!)

many more...

...my brain hurts...

So if you're done reading this, you know I have nothing to say and you've wasted your time. Thank you come again.

Secret of Mana for me!
My 3 favorites from it are, in order,
1)Dark Lich
2)Pure Land
3)The Underground City(not palace)

Phantasy Star III had a very good opening theme. It also had many other numbers worthy of note, and some which I'd rather not hear again.

Also, the opening piece for the original Legend of Zelda was excellent.

I'm particulary fond of the Chrono series music.
Also, I like music performed by the composer who did Star Ocean II and Valkyrie Profile.....um...I don't remember his name.

--------------------

Ah, so that's what an invisible wall looks like.

Too much great music from many different games to list, but most especially FF6 and many other RPGs like Chrono Trigger, Diablo, etc., etc.; also the Deus Ex theme (in game music is good also), Quake II, Q3A...too many to recall in a short time.

--------------------

~Status Report~

* Completed... Dragon's Head
* Completed... Soldiers of the Empire: Disciples (release pending)
* In Progress/Undecided... Of Love and Betrayal
* Planning/Assembly... Where it all Began

Oh, how could I/we forget this: the theme from the first Mario game.

--------------------

"I had to write four novels before they let me write comic books."
-Brad Meltzer

The intro theme to Suikoden III kicks ass.

--------------------

Elena Indurain

Currently Playing: Suikoden II

Mmm, agreed, Elena.  I play the MP3 a lot.  I also enjoy the theme for when you win a battle and for when you're fighting one of the more important story bosses, such as

SPOILER ALERT!  Highlight to view:

Yuber or the others in his fun fun group of friends.

 I think it's called "Blade."

--------------------

Hey, put the cellphone down for a while
In the night there is something wild
Can you hear it breathing?
And hey, put the laptop down for a while
In the night there is something wild
I feel it, it's leaving me

The music is equally as important as the storyline in my eyes...

Im just going to give my favorite soundtracks...

Tie between VI and IX.  

VI mainly because I was raised on it...

And IX because I think the music is, for lack of a better word, perfect.  There are songs to fit every moment, and when I listen to the soundtrack it brings me back to the game...

Maybe I take my games too seriously... hahaha

--------------------

Old enough to know better
Not old enough to care

Chrono Trigger: Frog and Magus' themes, and the two different Lavos Core themes.

FFVI: all of it, really, but in particular Atma's theme, and the Falcon theme (especially poignant when first rising out of the watery grave... that part of the game, mostly because of the way the music comes in perfectly, still sends pleasant chills down my spine).

The old Zelda theme, and Mario, of course, are classics.

And the Warcraft theme is just fun.

--------------------

I close my mouth now and I scream,
Open the door, there's nothing worth redeeming
I saw your face before in rough,
You should wait around a while, your body's bound to turn up.
So low for how high?
-Matt Good, "Running for Home"

Square makes great music, well I didn't care much for kingdom hearts. Other than Square music I thought CastleVania-symphony of the night had some cool music in it, and Earthbound,the battle music in Earthbound was cool, and the battle backrounds went nice with it.
I also like Diablo 1,StarCraft, and Quake3(dreamcast version) music.

I almost made a new topic for this, but decided to set up Night of the Living Thread again. I'll post a top ten for games...

1. Wicked Child - Castlevania Series
1. Napalm Man - Mega Man 5
1. The Big Bridge (Gilgamesh Theme) - Final Fantasy V
4. Legend of Zelda main theme - Zelda series
5. Sewerage - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV: Turtles in Time
5. Robo's Theme - Chrono Trigger
7. Mad Forest - Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse
7. Cosmo Canyon - Final Fantasy VII
9. Nananan Katamari - Katamari Damacy
9. Storm Eagle - Mega Man X

And an elite eight for soundtracks...

1. Chrono Trigger
2. Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse
3. Mega Man 2
4. Final Fantasy IV
5. Donkey Kong Country 2 (the one thing it had on the original was music)
6. Mega Man X
7. Katamari Damacy
8. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

I couldn't decide between a ton of em, hence all the ties. I also feel like a huge tool for having Konami, Capcom, and Square consist of eight of my top ten.

Have you heard "Dancing Mad"? I've noticed from some of your posts that you haven't played FFVI, but if "gothicesque" is your thing then you can't go wrong with that song.

And yes, there's always time to plug one of my favorite tunes.

And in my previous post I forgot to list the Metroid and Legend of Zelda main themes. How in the world could I forget those?!

If you like "gothicesque" music, then you have to play some Castlevania. The NES stuff is the classic lively video game music, and Symphony of the Night is darker, more atmospheric tunes. Check it out.
