Best original theme tune to a game?

[sirdanrhodes]

*Search bar gave me results on the same vibe, but not the same thread exactly*

Basically, what is you favourite theme tune to a game that was written for the game only?

Mine is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHHmqYrRvW8&feature=related The House of The Dead Overkill theme song.

My favorite is the Sonic theme song.

 

[sirdanrhodes]

My favorite is the Sonic theme song.

I thought there was more than one? Do you mean the first Sonic, if so, thanks for the damn nostalgia!

 

[TelHybrid]

My favorite is the Sonic theme song.

I have to go one further... and include linkage to a remix of this awesome opening!

I'm quite partial to this:

 

[Ibanez887]

The Legend of Zelda theme, once you hear the first note, you can tell its Zelda
God I love and Hate Nostalgia

 

[tomtom94]

Zelda: Wind Waker's is rather nice.

Or any Mario theme tune.

 

[HassEsser]

Portal

 

[dthvirus]

The Wind Waker theme, yeah. Or anything from that game. I sailed to different islands just for the songs.

 

[Grayjack]

Spoiler: Persona 4

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Halo. Pumped me up every single time. Hell still does!

 

[Faps]

Red Alert - Hell March

Age of Conan had some good orchestral bits, and a woman with an absolutely divine voice singing on top of them.

No comment on the game otherwise

As in an intro tune, or just anything composed specifically for a game? For the former I would say Calamity Trigger [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYPROxaxJ-E] from BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger. For the latter, Kill Dog as a Sacrifice to Dog [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsZjnYoUUKs] from Guilty Gear Isuka.

I know hundreds of these, although one that really is clear is Vampire Killer from the Castlevania series. It really captures the feel of the games as you listen to it.

Red Alert - Hell March

Definitely Hell March II
