Favorite Game Music

So, I was watching a show this morning that showed some great video game scores and got me wondering what your guys' favorite game music is.

My #1 is Zelda: A Link to the Past
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/1Mscxx7o4Uk&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/1Mscxx7o4Uk&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

And a close #2 is Zelda: Ocarina of Time
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/_I7n6N5Wc2E&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/_I7n6N5Wc2E&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/8MWlBq6a7Ug&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/8MWlBq6a7Ug&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

I love a number of the old NES themes, but a few I am partial to are this:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/5bTAdrq6leQ&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/5bTAdrq6leQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

(I find myself humming it from time to time )

this:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/G_80PQ543rM&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/G_80PQ543rM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

and this:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/iUoIZwHJlzI&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/iUoIZwHJlzI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

I'm also partial to Contra's theme, and from more recent games, the theme to Metal Gear Solid:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/ECjDfQd8QVc&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/ECjDfQd8QVc&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/ObNCrxgFCUo&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/ObNCrxgFCUo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

There's so many good ones out there. I'll list a few I can remember:

Now this one is the one that gets stuck in my head so I share:

That Ryu's theme doesn't sound right...this is the way I remember it.

The theme for 2 was the best, but you can take any music from any Mega Man game and put it at the top of this list.

Runner Up: Kirby

Again, you can take just about any music from any of the games and add it to this list but here's the best:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/4vHCqysyDpo&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/4vHCqysyDpo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

And don't forget the Snoop Dogg remix

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/wXzg0D-cKds&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/wXzg0D-cKds&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Here's one to get stuck in your head all day. Sounds like one of those old school slapstick themes with Charlie Chaplin running around

Music... Bioshock

Score... MGS 2

I'm into the more orchestral VG music rather than the upbeat stuff.

Potential my personal favorite VG soundtrack is, Castlevania:Lord of Shadows. Very powerful and emotional soundtrack!

Some of my favorite videogame music of all time:
