If you love games, sure enough you love the soundtracks in games, right?
Let me hear it Facepunch. Let me add some content first.
The music will make or break a game for me. If a game has bad music you end up turning it all the way down and playing something else. I find this all to common in gaming today, and I [b]hate[/b] it, it makes me not want to play them. So since I'm on Facepunch a little too often these days, I thought I would show you all some game music that I cherish.
First track!
From gaming in the Clinton years ;/. "Potos", from Secret of Mana.
This kinda scores so high for me since it brings back memories of childhood. I used to just sit in the town to listen to it.

Second track!
My next one is a bit more mature sounding, "Tristram". Yeah, Diablo 1 is Blizzard Entertainments [B]second[/b] best game to date, after Diablo 2 of course. It was really easy to duplicate items so the game was trash unless you played legit. I believe this one was the first mature games I've ever played.

Last but not least, "Triage at Dawn" from Half-Life 2. I use this song to help me sleep, and this is one of the only good soundtracks from that entire game imo.

So tell me Facepunch. What are your favorite songs from video games?
[b]Edit:[/b] adding more:
Seiken Dentsu 3: Where Angels Fear To Tread
Towards the middle/end is where it gets to be good, this whole game had a good soundtrack actually, not gonna put em all up here though.

I prefer Metroid Prime over echoes and corruption soundtrack wise, but fuck yeah the first 3 are good ones IMO. Have a green check mark.
Edit:By first three, I mean in his list of songs. -_-
The first Fable game. I'm not going to bother posting it though, cause there are like 12 songs or something, they're all on youtube in a playlist though, just search.
All of the songs of MGS and Half-Life.
If it weren't for them, humanity would be EA's cocksuckers.
Braid, World of Goo, and Access the Animus from AC would be the best ones imo.
Sweet porn music, whaw whaw sound makes it perfect
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynpN_5ablLo[/media]
Somehow I also really liked the game.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;18295756]Anyone who loves the Silent Hill OSTs is a bro of mine.[/QUOTE]

Those are all my personal favorites.
I think Triage at Dawn is really overrated.
Some of the Ep2 songs are much better.

Brilliant song, even if it's just for the trailer.

X3, Oblivion and Morrowind are probably my top 3 picks for best soundtracks
X3: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HbUFEz-ASI[/media]
Morrowind: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWuNf4gxwuM[/media]
Oblivion: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muyJyjcdcG0[/media]
I'd have to say Guild Wars is up there too
Funny enough, Morrowind, Oblivion and GW were composed by Jeremy Soule
Battlefield 2142: Wake Island Theme.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POyzBagvthA[/media]
And obviously one that is overlooked alot: Serious Sam The Second Encounter.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQMCAdMadMY[/media]
Oblivion, Oblivion, and Oblivion.
Also the other TES games.
