planescape: torment fallout [1/2/3]... inon zur and mark morgan have different styles but i like them both some of the decent 1/2/3 sountracks were good... others did my head in [mainly the skinny puppy stuff for descent 2] Half Life [and the hl2 rehashes] it's hard to pick a favourite... it's worth pointing out [this]... might post it in a thread of it's own... |

I had the same immediate thought - Yuzo Koshiro was a bit of a legend in my Megadrive days. Streets of Rage 1 & 2 had great soundtracks. But Vice City had the best collection of 80's songs! I used to turn to Emotion 98.3 as soon as I got into a car! Good ol' Fernando Martinez! "She was like a big fat cow, all walking on two legs and stuff" ! Although, I'm going to nominate Quake - soooo creepy! |

Final fantasy, can't remember if it's VII or VIII but the one with all the synth - absolutely brilliant! |

Wipeout 2097 GTA: Vice City Half Life 1 (you wouldn't listen to it in the car; but its' minimalistic ambience, inter spliced with the tension filled onslaughts that garnish the set pieces were a landmark moment in video game audio.) |

The music at the end of Mario Land on the Game Boy ![]() It took me years to finish that game and now I can do it in about 45 mins ![]() The end game music is brilliant though! Plus, when you have completed it you can play through the game again but it has more enemies in it. I managed to complete it twice and got even more enemies! |

It has to be OUTCAST. The high-quality orchestral score was composed by Lennie Moore and performed by the Moscow Symphony Orchestra and choir. Absolutely stunning. |

Did my dissertation on music in computer games, so went through a HELL of a lot of soundtracks! Personally I love The Witcher's soundtrack. Brilliant through and through. Also Guild Wars is surprisingly good quality. Halo's soundtracks are pretty good, but a little bit too... Environmental. The themes are awesome. Surprisingly Silkroad Online has an amazing soundtrack! One of my favorites. I like the Final Fantasy series but they get a bit repetitive - You can hear elements of the previous games in all the soundtracks. |

if memory serves they were all done by the same guy [Nobuo Uematsu] so it's not that surprising... |

Do you consider that a bad thing then? I mean, they are a series after all. |
