My favorite soundtracks are probably Pokémon (all of them, but for me probably a tie between White and X), as well as the OLD Spyro games... because of memories.

[Adorkable 2,737]

Ugh..there's so many great ones to pick from. However, I think Skyrim would have to take the cake, I could listen to the music for hours. Also, Star Fox 64 has some pretty amazing tracks on top of it. I haven't played it, but the game Journey I believe recieved an award for the music it held, that's good stuff right there, props to the composers.

[Odyssey 5,716]

The Super Smash Bros. Brawl soundtrack is gorgeous and is the best soundtrack for a game. The music is the first thing that I found SSBB to be a good game.

Overall I think that the JP/EU Sonic CD Soundtrack is the overall best in games, I dunno why but all the songs just seem to work perfectly

The best soundtrack for a game for me is, the Arkham City soundtrack from beginning to end.

Another soundtrack from a Medal of Honor game - the soundtrack for Medal of Honor: Rising Sun.

 

[Pastel 7,630]

Almost every music from Donkey Kong Country 2.

Glowfish (an iOS game) has amazing soundtracks, but I can't find them on YouTube

I think Halo, and Pokemon have the best soundtracks.

[Complexity 181]

I wanted to know what you guys think he best video game soundtrack is. In my opinion, Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time has the best soundtrack, but I'm a huge Zelda fan so that may have the bias virus attached to it.

If Halo is not in your top 5, then your not a gamer.. Halo (all of them) were epic.

 

though, in my opinion,

 

1. Halos

2. Gears of Wars

3. Mass Effects

 

just the top 3, but other OSTs were epic too

[Admiral Regulus 2,769]

This. No other OST beats Assassin's Creed II's epicness.

 

[Hovershy 3,814]

I love the Halo soundtrack! Ocarina of Time's was amazing as well! 

[(MARVEL) Blue Blood 991]

If I had to choose, Mega Man 3. Mega Man soundtracks usually kick serious ass, and Mega Man 3 is by far my favorite.

This is 8-bit heaven.

[The Mane-iac 1,648]

DOOM

Metroid Prime Trilogy

Mass Effect Trilogy

 

I have the soundtracks to these things and listen to them very often.

 

Some honorable mentions include: Star Fox, Vigilante 8, Donkey Kong Country, Crash Bandicoot, SimCity

[M'aiq the Liar 5,804]

Halo

GTA San Andres (because all dat classic rap/hip hop)

Metro 2033/S.T.A.L.K.E.R SoC (for those amazing atmospheric guitar songs)

Silent Hill 1-3

[Deathstroke 1,564]

Command and conquer hands down best soundtracks in a game 

 

 

Also any music made by hans zimmer crysis 2 is a prime example

This. No other OST beats Assassin's Creed II's epicness.

 

 

Bene'

 

 

As for me I think KOTOR had the best OST

 

[Azure Envy 1,092]

I really enjoyed the soundtrack to Chrono Cross, probably more than the game.

[Brony Number 42 10,069]

Terminator for the Sega CD.

[Megas 27,656]

Like I've said a million times, Megaman X gets my vote for the best soundtrack of all time(which includes movies, TV shows, plays, etc.)

 

Honorable mentions: Metal Gear series(notably Snake Eater) and Final Fantasy(notably FFVIII)

[CMQuickfireTK 751]

All the Dooms, Quakes, and Unreal Tournaments imo.

[The Fortunato 43]

There's so many great games out there, it's hard to pick just one! I could narrow it down to my top three, however. I'll put my favorite song from each game in there, too.

 

In no particular order...

-Halo 3's soundtrack, "Warthog Run".

-Gears of War 2's soundtrack, "Hope Runs Deep".

-Skyrim's soundtrack, "Dovahkiin".

 

I really do like 8-bit songs, but I feel that they're no match for an orchestra, so that's why there's no older games up there.
