Game Character Theme songs

[Colton Caramihalis]

I would be personaly insulted if they wasted a Breaking Benjaman song on Master Chief

 

[Colton Caramihalis]

A good one would be Perfect Insanity by Desturbed for the main character from Condemed

[bermyduck]

Gears of War set to Mad World by Gary Jules was epic and perfect in that commercial

 

[FreelancerADP]

Hey Man, Nice Shot - Filter

Definitely for Frank in Dead Rising. Makes a good song for others too.

 

[defcon 1]

Neutron Bomber by WASP for TF2's Pyro or MGS3's "The Fury"

 

[Lance Icarus]

Sephiroth theme: Evolution by Motorhead.

 

[Slamhound]

DOOM Marine - Let the Bodies Hit The Floor - Whoever-the-guys-were-who-wrote-and-performed-it.

Drowning Pool were the group, and the song was Bodies.

They never did recover after the sudden (And drug-unrelated) death of their lead. Shame.

Can't think of any specific characters and songs, but I'm under the belief that anything in a game, regardless of how boring or horrific or awesome can only be improved by killing off the sound and music and just playing Yakkity Sax (AKA the Benny Hill theme) on a continuous loop. Try it.

 

[MindBullets]

The Metal by Tenacious D might be appropriate for CnC's Kane. At least, it would be if you replaced "metal" with "messiah" in the lyrics.

I was also thinking that Wherever I May Roam by Metallica would suit Rogues or Hunters in WoW. Or any other similar character.

 

[Kiytan]

Asator by amon amarth for kratos (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtxJg7xQL8s - not made by me)
or blood red sandman if that is a little too extreme.

I'm trying to think of a themetune for kain (from the legacy of kain series) but just can't

 

[KreacherOfbloodandRank]

just a few For the Team Fortress 2 crew:

Scout: Kickstart My heart - MOtley Crue

engineer: Monkey Wrench - Foo Fighters

Oh, and my greatest choice!:

Demoman: Whats left of the Flag - Flogging molly

Here it is in a KH AMV (couldnt find a better video)

[KreacherOfbloodandRank]

Oh, just a few more for TF2:

Spy: Selfish Man - Flogging Molly

Sniper: Desparado - The Eagles

Medic: Reise Reise - Rammstein

Heavy: Malchik Gay - T.A.T.U (what can i say? the heavy loves that faux lesbian russian pop music =/)

 

[Mstrswrd]

...Uh... um... damn, I'm not good at this (don't listen to much music). Well, Dante (DMC) works really well with the main theme from DMC3, but seeing as that's not the point of this, I'd have to say... crap... uh... really any hard rock and/or speed metal song would work for him. Also, "Under the Influence" by Rusty Cooley kind of works for Leon Belmont, from "Castlevania: Lament of Innocence." Many parts of the song have a very Castlevania vibe to them.

 

[Lvl 64 Klutz]

Thought of another good one...

The hero from Shadow of the Colossus:
Moneen - Don't Tell Locke What He Can't Do

Imagine making that final stab...
"Yes I Caaaaaannnn..."

 

[Seldon2639]

Yuna from FFX/FFX-2: Pretty When You Cry (VAST)

Altair: Killing An Arab (The Cure), if not only for the Camus reference, but the aptness

Kefka (From FFVI, or FFIII, depending on perspective): When You're Evil (Voltaire)

Cloud (FFVII): I Think I'm A Clone Now (Weird Al)

Master Chief: Another One Bites The Dust (Queen)

Mass Effect Main Character: A Little Less Conversation (Elvis Presley)

 

[The Franco]

Two more I thought up:
Zant from Twilight Princess (for the first half of the game at least):
"Everything Went Black" - The Black Dahlia Murder

and

Simone Belmont from Castlevania 2:
"What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse" - The Black Dahlia Murder

/* Same band, same album, but it's one of my favorites */

 

[smallharmlesskitten]

i just thought of the most obvious one maybe two

Down with the sickness- Vincent Valentine- FF7

sonic- Speed- Atari youth foundation

go go go go go check that second one out

speed speed
speed speed

its such a fast song its plainfully obvious

 

[Mullahgrrl]

Cryptosporidium-If I only had a brain

Its not the brains, its the stems, and they don't do that in the second one.

I only ever played the first one, what is the MO in the second one?

 

[Iffypop]

Master Chief already has a theme tune, it's the Halo 2 theme, and it is awesome.
