Also, I don't really have a fav game song, but I do favor a few above the others. For example, off of FF VIII I love the Salt Lake theme, or Time Compression song.

I ususally play with the music down. nothing worse than being lulled to sleep by some smooth melody and you end up falling off the cliff and taking 100,000 times your HP in damage. *stupid High Hold pass...*

EDIT: Although... I do have this (http://www.imeem.com/people/bAFP5XW/music/lLVDwwcd/rumble_roses_project_feat_teresa_yankee_rose/) on my MP3 player.

Probably the Kingdom Hearts series soundtracks. But one song would be the 13th Anthology.
GTA: Vice City had a really good soundtrack too.

There was a 20k fall in highhold pass? The one that I always associate with that area was East Karana.

Don't remember where, but I think it was just outside the gate to enter high hold pass.

it may not have been that much but it was enough to kill me alot of times over. :D

East Karana connected to Highpass hold. Highpass hold connected to highhold keep(was the only entrance as i recall).

Only really big fall I remember was in East Karana, but it's been a long time.


On a completely different and unrelated note, later in the game, I was able to pop shield of mana and survive a maximum damage fall (20k).

While not as originally played in the game, you should still be able to figure out my favorite video game song. :D

Currently it's probably "M4 Part 2" by Faunts, from Mass Effect. That entire soundtrack is wonderful. Other favourites include the Smash Bros. Brawl version of Tetris B-type, Starcraft's Terran theme 2, "Mountains of Thunder" from the Wrath of the Lich King soundtrack, the Greatwood and Summer Fields tracks from Fable, Some of the tracks from Medal of Honour: Allied Assault, and Fluke's "Goodnight Lover" from good old Wipeout 64.

Chrono Trigger had by far the best music of the 16-bit era. But then again, it is the greatest game of all time. It remains the only RPG I could ever be bothered to play through twice. Even Fallout 3 didn't hold my interest long enough.

My personal favourite is the Kingdom of Zeal theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QufOb0e6Mns). In fact, the whole Zeal section is probably the greatest thing ever in a video game.

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate
my satisfaction.
Aperture Science
We do what we must
because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.
But there's no sense crying
over every mistake.
You just keep on trying
till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are
still alive.


I'm not even angry.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart.
And killed me.
And tore me to pieces.
And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you!
Now these points of data
make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta.
We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned.
Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are
still alive.

Go ahead and leave me.
I think i prefer to stay inside.
maybe you'll find someone else
to help you.
maybe Black Mesa...
THAT WAS A JOKE, HA HA, FAT CHANCE.
Anyway this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist
look at me still talking when theres science to do
when i look out there
it makes me glad I'm not you
i've experiments to run
there is research to be done
on the people who are
still alive.


and believe me I am still alive
I'm doing science and I'm still alive
i feel fantastic and I'm still alive
while your dying ill be still alive
and when your dead i will be still alive
still alive
still alive

****! I'm playing Ace Combat 5 again right now. No joke. But yeah, The Unsung War is a really nice song and a good game, best of the series.


My favorites would have to be:


"Stars of Tears" or "Small Two of Pieces (ending)" from Xenogears.

Plus I can't forget the short, but great "Faraway Promise". Hell. I should just add the whole Xenogears soundtrack. It's still one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.

Some others high on my list:

"Melodies of Life", "Village of Dali" and "Immoral Melody" from Final Fantasy IX.

Luna's "Boat Song" and "Wings" from LUNAR: SSSC.

"Eternal Blue"(?) from LUNAR II: EBC.

Zelda OoT and MM.

12-01-2009, 08:10
Celes theme for FF6 and the Wizards and Warriors title theme were the best.

The medley from Megaman2 is awesome.

Oh, ol' Zelda theme and the entire sountrack of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night Sountrack, too.

Nintendo's franchises are famous for their soundtracks, especially Mario and Zelda. I would have to go with Kraid's theme, from Metroid. It's just so awesome.

Oh yeah, the NES/SNES Castlevanias had awesome music too.

i prefer tunes to songs, and don't have any video games, so have no idea which go with which, although i think some of the ones i like might be from the final fantasy series.

i have heard a bunch on various websites, some, supposedly of their composers or legitimate rights holders, which let me keep them, which i think are better then any thing that wins gramme's.

i just don't for the life of me remember the names of any of them.
there's a bunch on a site called 8-bit peoples.

All Blizzard games have great soundtracks. No exceptions.
Neverwinter Nights 2 - Storm of Zehir also had a truly epic soundtrack.
Might and Magic 6 - classic

One specific song I'm fond of and couldn't find anymore was the sorceress' castle theme from Heroes of Might and Magic 2. It's opera with bagpipes; Nuff said. I used to own the game, but I lost the CD. The background themes were written as audio tracks and all the recently available versions I found (p2p first, then I even bought the HoMM Collector's Pack for that single bleeding track) had the game without the original background music.
