What was the best video game music of all time?
For my money it’s a tie between Eurydice’s song from Hades, any of the tracks from VVVVVV and Still Alive. But what do you think?
TheWoozy, Space Invaders
Amaltheamannen, Disco Elysium!!
zell565, I’ve been listening to the OST A LOT lately. Discovering Sea Power and similar artists is one of the many many great things that came out of playing that game.
ChairmanMeow, 
Super Mario Galaxy has an amazing soundtrack!
raistlin, Def hollow knight, I think it captures the essence of a long decaying kingdom perfectly.
FlashMobOfOne, 
My favorite is Dragon Age Origins, personally.
The really cool war chant for the Ostagar scene, Lelianna’s Song, and the soundtrack of the Brecilian Forest are my favorite.
Sdot, I played a beautiful game last year called Omno, and the soundtrack to that was just breathtaking. I listen to it all the time
hactar42, Personally, Quake (1996). I remember playing it as a teen and actually feeling my heart rate increase with the music. It was the first game that the music really immersed me into the game.
Honorable mention, The Housebuilding Song from RDR2. Just a perfect way to lighten the mood after such a hard hitting chapter.
MargotRobbie, 
The entire soundtrack of Nier Automata, for a more recent contender.
Moonwalk, 
Game: Masterpiece. Soundtrack: Masterpiece.
brb, Had to scroll way too far for this
randint, 
The theme song of Locoroco. Though the lyrics are in a made-up language, I can feel the desire for world peace in this song.
ZosoRocks3, For me it’s is:
- Final Fantasy 7 (sheer volume of classics, listen to it regularly)
- Resident Evil 2 (PSX)
- Tekken 3
- Silent Hill 2
- Spyro (come on, it’s Stewart Copeland!)
ramirezmike, have you listened to ff7 lofi remixes on YouTube though? 👀
Mr_Dr_Oink, Thankyou! I have a lofi playlist and this is going to be added immediately.
Rai, Or Team Teamworks’ Vinyl Fantasy 7?
ZosoRocks3, I have not, but am going there right now! Any particular playlist?
ramirezmike, apologies for the YouTube links but I really dig [this one] (youtu.be/0nBYI0owpeY?si=uf8046PS4jv28y5l) by Rifti Beats. Every track is gold on that.
This one is pretty good and has neat, nostalgic visuals to go with it.
If you like a little bit more trippy synthwave style this one is very cool too. There’s an FF8 one too.
Oha, 
Team Fortress 2 OST
pig_master, First instinct was to say Chrono Trigger. My second choice is Tony Hawks Pro skater.
pslightlypsycho47, Tunic has an otherworldly soundtrack. It’s perfect music to listen to while working. youtu.be/nnvjKf_mRYM
DemiParagon, Risk of Rain 2 is phenomenal.
Warframe has great music all over the place.
Tony Hawks Underground and Underground 2 soundtracks contain songs I listen to today.
Need For Speed: Most Wanted 2007 and Burnout 3: Takedown basically defined my music interests from an early age.
I really enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077s but that was likely primarily because of the inclusion of Run The Jewels.
RogueAozame, Btw the first most wanted was released in 2005 not 2007. But I definitely agree with you it’s what got me into rock music.
DemiParagon, Wrong year, my bad, but yeah. Definitely was big for my tastes
akito, Nice to see Risk of Rain mentioned. Agreed
Rowsdower, For the whole soundtrack Shadow of the Collosus. For a specific track the one I listen to most often is Instrument of Surrender, or Off We Go Into The Wild Pale Yonder from Disco Elysium
