So I'm this huge geek in that I love video game music. Probably the nostalgic part of me, when I hear a certain soundtrack, I can instantly go back to the first time I played that game.
So what are some of your favorites? I'm listening to this one now, and all of a sudden I'm in 7th grade again:  |

I know I have a huge bias, but the Zelda games have always had good soundtracks in my opinion.
The Twilight Princess Hyrule Field night time theme is probably one of my favorites. |

"High tech special forces unit FOXHOUND, your former unit, and one that I was a commander of."
I still get stoked over this one. So good.  |

You should check out this podcast, it's pretty cool.
https://ricochet.com/podcasts/soundtrack-imaginary-places/ A trip to Sin City prompts thoughts of the one thing people usually don’t think about when they think of Games, but something absolutely essential: sound. Music. Melody. The burbles of the casinos to the chimes of pinball to the soundtracks of computer games – it’s an essential part of losing yourself in another world. |

Quote HistoryThat's a good one too, although the dark humor of GLaDOS made Portal, IMO. Especially the second game, with Wheatley. Brilliant. |

Heh nice to finally see that I'm not the only one. FF8 was my favorite for sure. Awesome story, memorable characters, etc. It would be great if they would do a remaster of that instead of 7. |

Unlike most people I actually seek out film/tv and game music/soundtracks. I also forgot to mention a couple games that are well liked for their music: The elder scrolls series Dragon Age series |
