A great gaming track a day

[Wiper]

Yeah, Gods' theme is godly. And one of those unusual occasions where I honestly think the game version of the song is better than the original.

I really like Mute City from F-Zero.  Great track:

This song really gets me pumped while playing the game, along with violent drumming. EAD Tokyo nailed everyting about this game

 

 

Edit" well i forgot what forum i was in/didnt read OP. but this track is so good yall should listen to it anyway.

Great tune, I'd forgotten about that. Although it does sound like something from 80s era Phil Collins.... ;-)

90's Sega at their best. Virtua Fighter 2 - Shun Di

I came in here with a track from Super Castlevania to post! I'll go with this instead, which may be my favourite music from any game ever

 

 

[Sureshot]

Forgot to post this masterpiece already!

Obscure has such an identity when it comes to its OST. They hired a french childrens choir for the two games which makes it quite unique but it's so compellingly dark and deep.

I almost picked Jaguar XJ220 today, but this won out purely on weight of nostalgia. Played the hell out of this game with my brother and sister:
 

 

Pinball Fantasies - Party Land

Alright alright, it's bakery time:

 

 

Also featuring in: Jurassic Park and Fireball II!

Cheating a bit with the entire game soundtrack but it's a classic.

Time for something completely obvious:

 

Kenny Chou - One Must Fall 2097 - Main Theme

 

Aside from being the first (and quite possibly only) great PC-exclusive fighting game (and remaining the only one on any system with a meaningful single-player career mode), One Must Fall 2097 is lucky enough to have one of the greatest, most memorable title themes I've ever heard.

Some prefer the original C64 version, but I think I prefer this one:

I actually prefer the Amstrad version.  I think it's a track that suits being a proper plinky plonky chip tune.

[Soulstar]

I thought of an excellent one today with a melody I just waxed nostalgically when it came to mind.

I prefer the music from the previous game:

I do like that track, but it's essentially Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence.

[Wiper]

Which is why it's great (even if lazy)!

[Nathan Wind]

Get PUMPED!

When we covered for the guy who normally runs the local video games quiz our music round included the Doom theme. As far as I recall, only a couple of teams recognised it (out of 10+).

 

I was unimpressed.

[Sureshot]

Controversial opinion: Road Rash 3 is my favourite Road Rash game.

The Game Boy rendition of Double Dragon's second stage music is etched into my brain. Love the slow build to the rousing chorus where it goes duh duh duh duuh, di di di di di duuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!  Makes me want to go beat up some goons in a warehouse.

 

 

Edit - hmmmmm, can't seem to get it to embed the single video.  Number 4 on the list was the one I wanted.  Bah. But fuck it, the entire soundtrack is ace anyway.

Time for a bit of a curveball: Yogi's Great Escape is an utterly woeful platformer. Complete rubbish.

 

It also happens to feature a completely thematically inappropriate, completely brilliant title theme:

 

Howie Davies - Yogi's Great Escape - Theme

[Sureshot]

Most definitely a case of 'if I have to put my name to this crap, I'm going to do whatever the bloody hell I want'.

Tranquil side scrolling bliss.
