Best video game music?

[Minerva_Minx]

Relaxing, bold... adrenaline boosting...

Ok. Try this as background on spotify. Makes me angry in Destiny. Then it's good to laugh off my anger.

Marty O'Donnell on the Halo series is Goat.

The music used in Guild Wars 2 is great too, as is the music in Journey

 

[Chomby]

*cough cough*

Pokemon Gen 5

Deep Rock Galactic. Rock and Stone to the bone!!!

 

[Judge Spear]

Naganuma dont miss.

Anything in the Medal of Honor Frontline game, actual live orchestrated music that fits the darkness of the Second World War, it has some "oh shit the Nazis are all over me" feel.

A alternative is any music from the original Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction game. It's haunting and heroic at sometimes and even one track says "hurry your ass and destroy all that NK artillery before thousands die in Seoul!"

PS2 era kicked ass in general with good music.

Again. Naganuma DON'T miss.

(Game is ass sadly)

The Deus Ex: Human Revolution and Mankind Divided soundtracks by Michael McCann would probably tie with the No Man's Sky soundtrack performed by 65daysofstatic. I always have them on my iPod.

Too lazy to check if someone else has added this, but Far Cry 5 had a pretty good soundtrack. With some variety too.

This is the combat music, so pretty action-y:

These few are "post-rock", I think? It's slow, calming.

Killing Floor 2 has a pretty solid soundtrack list and with Christmas around the corner, I think this track in particular is quite fitting for the occasion.

 

[Parabellum3]

Here are my picks. Dishonored is my favorite one.

 

[Judge Spear]

Funky fresh fire! Heaven is here inside my SOUL!

 

[ZebraDrugs]

This one always gets me bopping my head

 

[Rayd]

early 360 era osts break my heart lots of original xbox ones do, too.

 

[Polaris]

Brigador has some really amazing soundtracks!

 

[Mr-Rose-Lizard]

My favorite video game music comes from Out Run and its spinoff Out Runners, especially the piece "Passing Breeze".

 

[Renneon]

Pokemon mystery dungeon sky explorers is my favorite game ever, i love this track from it, it's just so serene ♫
Beyond the dream
star cave is a really cute track too,,

 

[Redlinelies]

Some pretty good stuff here:

 

[Sappho]

The entire spyro: Year of the dragon soundtrack

 

[zandelux]

I love the Overcooked games, but the music was never all that memorable... it just sort of got the job done. Until I played their last DLC, Carnival of Chaos. The game is 1000x more fun to play with the right music.

 

[Connery]

If you're into ambient, there's no way around The Talos Principle.

So. GOOD.

 

[Ziv]

The secret track in Pokemon (starting in gen 5, and I think that version is the best) that only plays at the real-life Pokemon World Championships.

My favorite boss music:
