Doom Eternal sounds amazing already. I'm very excited
Beatmania IIDX tracks
Some one had started a thread on video game soundtracks on another form i use and it has been a really interesting thread so i thought id start it here.The question is what is your favorite video game sound track?My favorite over all soundtracks are mass effect, halo and final fantasy. Other good ones are skyrim, fallout new vegas and okami. I also own the soundtrack cds to tekken 5 and 6 and street fighter 4. I think these games have the perfect music for a beat em up. Resident evil is very good at using a subtle soundtrack and silence to create tension. Music in videogames is more important to me than graphics. It sets the tone, adds to tension and makesset pieces feel more epic.
Kingdom Hearts is probably one of those games I like more for it's sound design, and less for it's actual narrative. Kind of been Square-Enix thing lately. Yoko Shimomura is pretty amazing at making music that's kind of bouncy/intense/sad/introspectiveI do like Nobou Uematsu but since he left Final Fantasy it's hard for me to keep track of his recent works. That and Yasonuri Mitsuda. Dude's a legend inmho. Xenogear's soundtrack? Chrono Cross? Even Chrono Trigger was amazing at the time.World of Warcraft has some pretty decent music in it too.. at least the later expansions. Don't have any names attached to it, but there's some pretty good stuff in there too.
Ezio's return from Assassins Creed was amazing. Its always an epic track.
The Kingdom Hearts franchise has some of the best music in gaming and Final Fantasy XV has an incredible soundtrack too. Yoko makes good stuff
