    Best video game music, ever?

    I thought I'd take my BFF's thread one step further, since I enjoyed it so much.

    I'll start with a classic from one of my favorite games: Super Castlevania IV.
    This game had a soundtrack that was amazing and very diverse. It totally set the mood for fighting strange looking monsters and kicking some vampire ass!



    note: the actual song isn't 15 minutes long, this just loops for 15 min.
    After about 2 minutes, you get the idea...

          My favorite is probably this one from a different Castlevania, Symphony of the Night. I've replayed the game quite a few times from since I was a kid.

                          Castlevania SOTN had great classical music but i would have to say when asked about video game music, this is what first comes to mind.

                              I knew I couldn't be the only one here, who thought the Castlevania series had
                              some of the best music. I love when developers put a strong emphasis on music and
                              Konami did, every time. Memorable tunes that I dont mind listening to, on loop.

                                                      I liked Fallout 3?s soundtrack.

                                                      ?Butcher Pete? playing in the back ground while you're blowing shit up was a bit of a charge.

                                                          -This was awesome on so many levels. In retrospect, I appreciate the music even more after looking into the composer's (Yuzo Koshiro) body of work and contributions to video game music.

                                                          Honorable mention:
                                                          Devil's Crush (1990) for Turbo Grafx 16

                                                          -Epic Satanic pinball game with 3 tiers to the main board and a ton of bonus levels. The main theme-song was this hectic speed metal tune that added to the anxiety of trying to keep the game alive. Creeped me out back then.
