Epic video game music

[JayDub147]

Deus Ex: "Enemy Within"
or perhaps "Begin the End"
Great game; great music

 

[Logie--bear]

I used up my shareware demo listening to this song

 

[CJMacM]

I'm gonna have to say the Kanto Gym leader music in Heart Gold/Soul Silver.

Most battle songs on Pokemon are pretty good, but this is my favorite

 

[mrpenguinismyhomeboy]

Leave it up to the valve fanboy...


I think the first one is truly epic, while the second one is just hauntingly beautiful. To me, at least.

BTW, while I am a valve fanboy, I like these songs cause I think they are good, not cause they were in the Valve games.

I hate the new Sonic games. Like, a lot.

... Yet, for whatever damn reason, they always manage to produce a theme song that is completely fucking off-the-god-damn-wall-holy-shit-where-did-this-come-from awesome.

It's like Sega takes all their creative juice, and crams it up the the collective ass of their music department.

This song kinda DEFINES epic. For me at least.

 

[Stoic raptor]

Shadow of the colossus


And metroid prime ridley theme

Halo does have some epic music I have to agree.

My vote goes to the theme from The Darkness

<youtube=xc8NMbUJUp8>

and Jenny's theme from the same game

[Dango]

Also my vote for most underrated video game theme ever:

 

[subject_87]

The menu theme from Age of Mythology was truly epic. God, I love that game.

 

[Theninja'skatana]

Doesn't count but F it!

This isn't bad and it counts!
Side note: How do i put in spoilers (spelled that wrong)?

 

[Beffudled Sheep]

No JSRF? BLASPHEMY!

 

[Sougo]

Sprinkle in what is quite possibly one of the greatest main menu themes ever:

Ah, A fellow Turrican player...
Then you must have heard:

 

[mocruz1200]

IMO, better than one winged angel

COmmand and conquer generals USA theme so epic

 

[Nubrain]

I have to say "You're not alone" from FFIX. It's the first and only time I've ever stopped played, put the controller down and just listened to the music. I almost didn't want to play past that point the music was that good and I NEVER notice game music.

 

[The Madman]

Some of my favorites:

Spoiler: Joshua from Freespace 2, best sci-fi game soundtrack ever. Yes, even beats Mass Effect I'd say.

Spoiler: Mask of the Betrayer, loved the mysterious theme as well as the percussion-heavy battle music.

Spoiler: Probably the most *EPIC* medieval battle music ever, if this doesn't get your blood pumping, you must be dead.

And of course, since it hasn't been mentioned yet:

 

[Buck Wilde]

Lets get some Ace Combat goin in here

[TheSchaef]

Ratchet and Clank also belongs on my list but the example given above will suffice. So, my other entries:
