I was always found of the following

[Schimid]

Bucky O'Hare.
Donkey Kong Country.
The Mega Man Series ('specially 2 and 3.)
The Sonic The Hedgehog Series (:rock Labyrinth, Marble, Mystic Cave :rock)
Earthworm Jim (2)
Streets Of Fucking Rage >:
Gitaroo Man, just for Born To Be Bone and Resurrection.
Guilty Gear.
Metal Gear Solid.
Katamari Damacy.
Parappa. (<3 crack the egg into the bowl <3)

Not to be gay, but Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger had some really good stuff on them too. I still listen to Aerith's Theme constantly, and I never played 7.

Mind your own beeswax, Zack.

[MetalMilitia]

Flatout has rockin' music. :)

[Helm]

mentioned shadow of the beast

[McClain]

Dynasty Warriors series.
Parappa
Silent Hill series

[Ninjavenom]

Megaman X has some "phat jams", as the kids call them. Also do not forget the almighty Castlevania, Lament of Innocence and CV3 in particular. Disgaea also had some memorable ones. So memorable that after 200 hours of playtime, i have absorbed them like the blob. I could recite the entire OSV to you. :-/

[Skulhedface]

Silent Hill 3
Castlevania... more or less any of them
Final Fantasy (from 4 to 8)
Mega Man 2 (I love most of the overclocked remixes of MM2 songs)
Guilty Gear series
Super Mario Bros (if, for anything else, to hear the Mr. Bungle cover of the songs from it... bloody fantastic!)
Kid Icarus (the labyrinth theme in particular)

[HickMan]

STILL IN A DREAM...SNAKE EATER...

Love it :(

I also like Splinter Cell's music a whole buncha.

[Seven Force]

OOH OOH! I LISTEN TO MEGAMAN MUSIC!! :rolleyes

[HickMan]

OOO OOOH GO LOSE WEIGHT

[Seven Force]

The actual music too, none of that "remixed/overclocked" bullshit.

you gotta be hardcore

[Schimid]

If I made a topic explaining how to rip video game music into .mp3 format, would anyone read it? Or use it? Maybe?

It's real simple. :x

[King Hadas]

That'd actually be pretty helpful.

[the_dudefather]

i would love to have ryu's theme from marvel vs capcom (the re-done version of the sf2 theme).

your losing a battle... your first guy gets KOed, your ther team member; ryu, leaps on screen... dunn duhh dun duh duh duh :rock

[stitchfan626]

I'd like to read it if i've never heard it before. It's a lot better than turing them into wavs. :/


I'd really appreciate that. :)

beyond good and evil has a great soundtrack, which is freely available on the nintendo insider page i believe.

[Guitar Woman]

im rocking the super dodge ball soundtrack right now...
:)

[soundtest]

anybody know where to find pro remixes of classic game tunes? unless my memory is shit, BACK IN THA DAY i used to always hear about promo cds released in japan with remixed versions of classic game music (usually by the same composers of the original)... anyone know of anywhere one could find such gems in a centralized location? or anything of high quality? ideally, classic game tunes minus the creative spin* ... simply the original but updated...

*(i.e. the original slightly altered with an amen breakbeat)

i say pro not to be a jerk, but because i just downloaded a gig of remixes from that overclocked site and they all really, really hurt my feelings :(

[Guitar Woman]

600 AD overworld theme from Chrono Trigger, and the last battle from Yoshi's Island.
