Honestly nowadays so many games have great soundtracks, it is a joy to behold! Makes it harder to chose favorites though…
Really good list. I wanna add stardew valley and Nier automata aswell.
Als I’m gonna check out valkyrie profile tomorrow, I’ve never heard of that game.
Hollow Knight is pure art
Bastion, Beyond Good & Evil, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, Mirror’s Edge.
and Hades, although I refuse to call it a “patient gamer” game
BGE soundtrack is so good.
Propaganda
Hades, although I refuse to call it a “patient gamer” game
Why? It’s 6 years old at this point so I think it qualifies.
shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
Oh man the Mirrors Edge soundtrack is so good
- Halo Combat Evolved
- Mirror’s Edge
- Sim City 3000
- The Sims
- The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
- Fez
- Flatout 2
- Jet Set Radio
- Sword and Sorcery LP
OOT has such incredibly nostalgic music for me.
We’re on the same page as far as Mirrors EdgeI The Sims and SC3 goes, so I’ll trust your taste and listen to the other ones aswell. I’d want to add Portal 2 and Team Fortress 2 aswell.
- Chrono Trigger
- Undertale/Deltarune
- The World Ends With You
- Jet Set Radio
- Them’s Fightin’ Herds
- F-Zero GX
- VVVVVV
- CrossCode
- Crypt of the Necrodancer
- Shatter
Nier Automata. The entire discograpy
Replicant/Gestalt OST is also great.
FTL
Bungie-era Halo has the best OST in the industry hands down, though recently Lunacid let me hear some certified bangers; someone here mentioned B:G&E, and I second that opinion although I wouldn’t have thought of it myself.
Halo Reach was such an excellent send off. What a powerful soundtrack.
Halo Reach is my best honestly
Commander, you don’t have the firepower!
I’ve got the mass.
Solid copy. Hit 'em hard, boss.
You’re on your own, Noble.
Lieutenant, get aboard. We gotta get the hell outta here
Negative. I have the gun. Good luck, sir.
Good luck to you, Spartan.
The use of language in Reach is masterful. Even with one liners like ‘DOT, check your vector’, or mutterings like ‘armour configuration matched’ - ‘shield strength too’ add so much believability to the world.
I wanna go play reach now.
The Halo 3: ODST OST is so good, man.
The Mombasa Streets music made me stop in my tracks a couple times.
Minecraft (incl. Wynncraft)
Minecraft soundtrack never gets old, even 3000 hours later I can still listen to it.
My top four haven’t changed in a while:
- Chrono Cross
- Nier Gestalt/Replicant (original version)
- Persona 5
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
I love EDM, so any game that uses it or is inspired by it holds a special place in my heart, like Streets of Rage, Rez, Dance Dance Revolution, or the Trails of Cold Steel games (especially the second one).
Journey
I agree, the whole game is an art piece.
Witcher 3: Lelelelele
I love that one can still web search for that and still find the song 😂
Ones I haven’t seen in this thread yet:
Cuphead, Cave Story, Celeste, Dredge, Furi, Katamari Damacy (and others in the series), Peggle, Super Mario Galaxy
Celeste is top tier ❤️
I’ll skip the obvious ones with multiple artists like Furi, Katana Zero, Hotline Miami, Crypt of the Necrodancer…
Remember Me (2013) composed by Olivier Derivière
Warhammer 40k: Mechanicus (2018) composed by Guillaume David
Bastion (2011) composed by Darren Korb (anything by Darren Korb)
Styx: Master of Shadows (2014) composed by H-Pi
140 (2013) composed by Jakob Schmid
Bastion (2011) composed by Darren Korb (anything by Darren Korb)
The Transistor soundtrack for me is a masterpiece, still come back to it once in a while.
Pyre as well was super immersive, actually I enjoyed the game way more than Hades, but that’s because I was already burnt out of Rogue Likes when it released
Those are also among my favorites. Also the Title Theme to Anno 1404: When Cultures Meet and the Beyond Good and Evil Soundtrack.
Also a great theme is used all over Tilo Alpermann’s - The Night Of The Rabbit OST
Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag is a close 2nd Edit: almost forgot about FEZ!
Lonely Rolling Star is one of the best vijia game songs ever made.
