[GG Hendrix]

Every Hitman game- Jesper Kyd is a genius.
Messiah- FEAR FACTORY!
Sonic 3, Sonic And Knuckles, Sonic Rush- Love
We Love Katamari- :D
Guitar Hero- Deep Purple, Ozzy, Black Sabbath, Boston, Motorhead, The Ramones, ZZ Top, and the supreme grand master, Jimi Fucking Hendrix.

And finally, Shadow Of The Colossus. Fucking amazing.

[Rainbow Dash]

FFI, V, VI, and IX. Nobuo Uemetsu is a musical genius.

Oh, yeah, the JSR soundtracks are great.

Oh, and while the games are not out of this world, the Halo soundtracks are bloody brilliant.
Steve Vai = Love.

[ila]

a) Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Mainly boss music and for some strange reason Hydrocity.
b) Katamari Damacy. Too hard to describe.
c) Kingdom Hearts 2. There were so many disney remixes in that, plus the original tunes.
d) Final Fantaxy X. Not sure why, but X has my favorite soundtrack. Heck the victory theme is my ringtone.

P.S. Some cd players play the music off the Sonic CD cd.

[DragonZero]

Simple.

CastleVania: Symphony of the Night
Final Fantasy IX

[Rainbow Dash]

Ah, I forgot. *prepares to get shot* MMX intro stage theme and first Sigma castle stage theme. I guess the Devil May Cry (I) fighting theme is pretty cool too.

[DragonZero]

*Points gun toward Metool* I... I can't restrain...! *Swiftly angles the gun toward the sky and fires* Ok... Whew! No more rounds left!

[Hotenshu Shogun]

That was lucky.

[HZ]

definatly all ur base!
speaking of that who knows were i can download that?

[gagaman]

Does all your base really count? The voices were only in a fan song someone made, it's only one track from a whole soundtrack, and it's from a game that HAS A NAME.

As for downloading it, google it, it's bound to be at about 2,367 websites.

Then, go to Wikipedia and look up "soundtrack".

[GG Hendrix]

From what I remember, the Zero Wing music was pretty naff.
The remixes of it are always great though.

Edit: For those curious to why KrisalidX was warned, there is a year difference between his post and the previous one. (Remember people, don't just look at the day and month to avoid topic revivals.)

I was wondering why Gagaman posted this month when he already moved out months ago...

They weren't the first, or the last to use an orchestra for a videogame soundtrack.

[Terry von Feledae]

But they were still the best I've heard.
