What are your favorites? For me, Ocarina of Time takes the cake. I learned Zelda's Lullaby on the piano and it's just so beautiful. It's stuck in my head now. All of it is stunning.

Name some others, post youtube clips if possible.

Eyes on Me from FFVIII. Hahaha. I love that song.

Also, I love the love the background music in Ocarina of Time when you go to the Gerudo's town (I can't remember the name? Or if I am even spelling that right..) in the desert. It's a party.

Gerudo Valley. My favorite music of the towns in Hyrule is Kakariko Village.

I always liked the music of The Lost Woods in Ocarina Of Time as well as the music that is played when Shiek comes out before the start of a dungeon. It was so beautiful, so much so I actually have a tear coming down my face thinking about it.

Id always thought that the music for Golden Sun was pretty rad, well as rad as a GBA game can be. Which actually, if you ask me is pretty rad. Golden Sun is probably one of my favourite games of all time. I've just started re-playing it on my phone.

Not the best but certainly the catchiest. You'll never get this out of your head now.

Metal Gear theme.

Video Games Live is awesome. I so want to see it someday.

Also I'm a sucker for the Halo theme. Something about it just makes me want to shoot aliens in the face.

My favorites are basically any Final Fantasy soundtrack, Chrono Trigger's soundtrack, Xenogears soundtrack, and Lost Odyssey's soundtrack.

the player select screen and the first level are both in this vid, and both have perfect music. the whole game has a great soundtrack, though.

Ugh, I guess I'll be the first person to not mention a console game. The Quake II soundtrack fucking rocks...I wish I had more music like it. SiN and the Half-life series have also had some awesome/memorable songs, although of course those are always short, or just get looped in-game. Also, Jedi Knight and its expansion had great song selections that really fit the levels of the game, even if they were all from the Star Wars movies.

Figures you'd love the Quake soundtrack with a NIN avatar.

Also ditto on Mega Man.

The Mega-Man series on NES

Yes, I love listening to these. 9 and 10 were great too.

Mega Man 2's soundtrack played live along to the game while this guy does a flawless speed run... insane. Mega Man games are so damn hard!

Final Fantasy 10 has the best soundtrack of any game I've played. I downloaded the entire thing and still listen to it sometimes.

Found this list the other day, has a good mix of well known stuff as well as the slightly more obscure. I forgot how awesome "Scars Left By Time" is

You people should listen to The Legacy Music Hour. It's a podcast and it's awesome.

Took the time to listen to this early, I really enjoyed it, now I have a shit ton of back catalogue to work through,From what I can gather your the guy to go to for podcasts, do you know of any that DO cover remixes or covers? Or at least music from the 3D era?
