Best Song/Theme In A Video Game

[Internet Kraken]

Radwind from S.T.A.L.K.E.R:Clear Sky


Self Esteem Fund from Portal

 

[Gamer137]

Tied between Ring a Bell (Tales of Vesperia) and Heavenly Star (No More Heroes). Both are very catchy, and are to close together on my play count to pick.

Forgot about Metroid Prime 2. The title and menu screens were amazing, and the overall soundtrack was the series best.

 

[AtticusSP]

The entire soundtrack of Jet Set Radio Future.
The entire soundtrack of Tales of Legendia.

But to pick a specific song I can note, I'd go with Song of Freedom Fighters from Radiata Stories. It fits the atmosphere perfectly. Then again, all the songs in this game do, the soundtrack is really good.

I don't know what it is about this song. It's so damn catchy, I like to just hang around Theater Vancour just to listen to it.

I'd say the heavy metal in Killing Floor is just awesome.

Also, Still Alive in Portal. That is fucking tits.

 

[Unit Alpha]

The Mass Effect end credits one gets my vote.

M4 Part 2 by Faunts

[Christemo]

1-winged angel.
all the music from Heroes of Might and Magic 3 to 5.
Typhon Theme from Titan Quest.
Killing Floors music.

Fuck you.

That crappy song completley overshadows the rest of the Portal soundtrack.

 

[Plauged1]

Futurama. Enough said for the part of theme songs.

I do like a few Castlevania tunes. FF is not bad either. Most Castlevania tunes I like can be found in Symphony of the Night. I love the opening theme for Tactics. I don't know why, I just do.

Wait are you saying that the song is great? Cos thats exactly what I just said.

 

[Neo_Chesh]

Snake Eater song in MGS3 climbing up the ladder. I've never been so scared and turned on whilst moving my limbs.

I'm saying it's a song that got horribly overrated. Now nobody even mentions the rest of Portals soundtrack because all they remember from Portal is "Still Alive" and "the cake is a lie" jokes.

Oh.

Portal had a great soundtrack, I just like that song the best, also it has a more recognizable name and sound.

Its pretty sad though how most people saying the cake was a lie probably didn't know where it was from, even if I did find those jokes funny at first.

What's with all the Japan in this topic? Grand and all, but it ain't the end all of music. You want iconic themes, I'll give ya iconic themes!

Decent game, AWESOME THEME MUSIC!

Freedom Fighters, WOOoooOOO! IF that doesn't get ya pumped for action, you're dead inside.

Starcraft, Zerg theme pretty much defines the entire Starcraft saga for me.

Beyond Good & Evil, such a freaky alien soundtrack and yet so catchy.

I can think of so many others but I don't want to spam.

 

[Fenring]

The TES III Morrowind Theme. My all time favorite game song ever, that game has one of the soundtracks ever imo. I have as much as I can find on my ipod.

 

[Chainsaws_of_War_2]

The mall music while play Dead Rising. Nothing is more relaxing and calming as listening to that whilst plummeting your fists through countless zombies...

 

[IxionIndustries]

I still stand by my choice.
O2 boss theme, forwards and reversed..

Spoiler

Forwards: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOsU1v5ab4U
Reversed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWspYa7uMrM&feature=related

You know you have good music when it sounds good forwards and backwards..

 

[Chainsaws_of_War_2]

The entire soundtrack of Jet Set Radio Future.

I had completely forget about those funky tunes, man I miss my orginal xbox games :\.

 

[Pyre1million]

Lost Carol, from Silent Hill 3. Leading directly into You're Not Here.

Or, Letter From the Lost Days, and I Want Love (the Studio Mix). These songs are beautiful and haunting.

And finally, because I have to toss in my FF two cents: The Black Mages' version of Dancing Mad.
