Kinda hard for me. I'm split between NieR:Automata, ultrakill and Doom 2016/Eternal

Then again, I just started Baldur's Gate 3 and the soundtrack so far is pretty bangin so this might change

There's just way too many to list. A few of my favorite composers are

• Tim Follin
• Jochen Hippel
• Matt Furniss
• David Whittaker
• Jeroen Tel
• Yuzo Koshiro
• Rob Hubbard

FFXIV

For the whole soundtrack Shadow of the Collosus. For a specific track the one I listen to most often is Instrument of Surrender, or Off We Go Into The Wild Pale Yonder from Disco Elysium

Final Fantasy VI

Goldeneye on N64

Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Lelelelelele.... need I say more?

Space Harrier or Outrun, for sure.

Special award for Ghost n Goblins or Commando and some others like Dragon's Lair.

It is ** Brütal Legend** by far!!

Here's an obscure one.

The Batman game for NES.

That stage 1 & 2 song was like no other game music on the NES before or since.

Also, shout out to Blaster Master.

The Last Of Us.

FF IX for me

There are many great ones. Off the top of my head, each with a sample:

• Baldur's Gate 3 (recent addition)
• Return of the Obra Dinn
• Portal 2
• Deep Rock Galactic
• Doom Eternal
• Deus Ex - Human Revolution
• Ori and the Will of Wisps (haven't played it enough yet but music stood out)

Persona 5 Royal

I've barely played the game, it wasn't for me, but I fell instantly in love with the Bastion and Transistor soundtracks the moment I heard them.

It is my second most played game soundtrack right behind the metal songs from the Alan Wake series. Third is all 3 Hell March songs from Red Alert series. Fourth and oldest is probably Unreal Return to Na Pali and generally all of the two Unreal and four Unreal Tournament game tracks. And the Frozen Synapse series and Uplink soundtracks is probably close to the top too. And I don't know if it counts but the artist behind the Wheel of Time game soundtrack released a separate almost-soundtrack, which I played A LOT while reading the book series.

And thats just a few of my favorite tracks. I love video game music! I can't really decide on a single best one.

I think Zelda: Wind Waker's ost is one of the greats. I'm also surprised nobody has mentioned Earthbound and Mother 3 yet. They have amazing atmospheric tracks like nothing else.

Warhammer 40,000 Mechanicus Just embodies the Techpreist vibe so well, a near perfect hybrid of church organs and industrial music.

Its actually hard to pick a favorite track, it evenly split between Children of the Omnissiah and Noosphere.

Objectively speaking the answer has gotta be something from FFXIV. But which one?? Too many candidates....

Chrono Cross OST

MW2: Mercenaries was pretty awesome.

Other ones that come to mind are Crazy Taxi and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.

aquatic ambiance from Donkey Kong country is up there. Also IGN made an actually cool video about it recently.

In my opinion no video game soundtrack slaps harder than Hotline Miami 1&2 OST

Hotline Miami 1&2 - Workout Mix

Bro, you put a Super Giant game and don't mention "Build that Wall" from Bastion, tsk tsk.

Im a sucker for the witcher 1& 2. Also stardew valley/minecraft are both worth mentioning

Outer Worlds - Hope

Super Mario Galaxy has an amazing soundtrack!

Awesome for the Amiga

Turrican 2 on the Amiga
