After seeing Mycroft Holmes's thread to create a forum top ten games list based on everybody's top tens I decided that this was an awesome idea and decided that I would use this system for something I had been thinking about lately.
I want to know what the Escapists favourite video game soundtracks are. To find out I will use the same system used in Mycroft Holmes's thread. Everyone can post their top ten and a forum top ten will be created based on these.
Edit: 27/10/2013
Thanks to some suggestions from Battenburg I'll be changing this slightly, now all entries will be worth 1 vote since most people weren't ordering their lists anyway and it is probably fairer that way. And, people can now post as many games as they want in their lists, and any that have already been posted can be added to since I haven't started counting yet. I won't add to mine though because I think that ten is a nice and neat number.
1. Chrono Cross
2. Hitman 2: Silent Assassin
3. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
4. Jet Set Radio Future
5. Castlevania: Nocturne in the Moonlight
6. To The Moon
7. Final Fantasy 6
8. Street Fighter 2
9. Pikmin
10. F-Zero X
So Escapist, what are your favourite games? I really do want to know.
Oh, and also, I'd like to thank Mycroft Holmes for coming up with the idea I'm using for this.
Edit-29th: First Count is finally done! Here it is, the Escapist's top ten soundtracks.
Also, here's the rest of the data if you want to see the runner ups.
