FabSwingers.com forum: Favourite Video Game Music

Somewhere In The Ether…

Long gone are the basic ‘Beeps’ and ‘Boops’ of the old Atari days, replaced now often with full blown, soaring orchestral scores.

So, what is/are your favourite video game OST’s folks?

I’ll give a grand prize of my last jar of pickled eggs to anyone who mentions my personal favourite.

After the rudimentary blurps from my Commodore Plus4, I was blown away when I first loaded up Monty On The Run, on the C64.

The fact that Rob Hubbard managed to eke out such a genius, frenetic, foot-tapping, multi-track masterpiece, from the 8-bit SID chip, astounded me.

An absolutely brilliant entry in the series both musically and a truly classic game; So much so that it has been really-released on multiple subsequent console generations (it’s even on PS4)

I remember Doom when they released it on the PS1 having a really good atmospheric soundtrack, much more so than previous releases of the game.

Must be 25 years since I first played Doom on the 32X and can still remember every secret in every level

A special mention to so many of the old Capcom arcade machine soundtracks; Cadillacs And Dinosaurs and The King Of Dragons especially; Amazing tracks.

Also, more recently, does anyone remember a game for the last console generation called, The Darkness? That had an awesome soundtrack!
