Super Mario simply for sticking in your head power. Also for the memories it brings back.

I mean, who doesn't know at least the opening to the original Super Mario Brothers theme?

Da da da da da DA da! Da da da dadadada dadadadadaDAdadada!

You get the picture.

Mario - typical videogame shits
Zelda - part vg music/part symphonic
Final Fantasy - I think it speaks for itself
Guilty Gear - hard rock and metal

Castlevania.
Yep, that too.

Street Fighter 2's music was pretty good too, although the entire series isn't as good.

Megaman hands down by a country mile

Honorable mentions:

Final Fantasy
Legend of Zelda
Metroid



There are others that have awesome soundtracks (Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Blaster Master, etc) but there's only one game in the series so I didn't really include them...


It's kinda funny how Nintendo's games totally blow other games out of the water in the music department. <3 Nobuo Uematsu

I almost cried when it was reprised at the end of Snake Eater's theme. Beautiful. On topic:

Anything from Rareware (SNES-N64 Era)
Final Fantasy series
Zelda series (OoT especially)
Soul Calibur series

On the flip side:

Mortal Kombat series (So bad its an artistic statement)

Yes. Megaman 2 and 3 have hands-down the best soundtracks of any videogames ever. This cannot be disputed.

Agreed 100%. You're hooked at the boss selection screen, and the stages make it even better.

If you're referring to FF8, I love you. That game is so underrated that it isn't even funny. I hear people talk about how good nine is, but personally, I hated 9, and thought it was absolute trash compared to 7 and 8. :love: 8.

I dispute it. Super Castlevainia IV and Castlevania Symphony of the Night had way better music.

We agree, good sir.

Also, Honorable mentions to Suikoden and Streets Of Rage ( :heart: Yuzo Koshiro). Very underrated, IMO

Gotta give it up to Final Fantasy. Especially in 7 with the final 3 boss battles. OH MY GOD, JUST FREAKING AWESOME.

Final Fantasy 8 also had a good score. The "Lithos lucen lithos" song was amazing. Still sends chills down my spine. I mean how could you not get pumped on the last boss of the game with that kind of music :love:

I have a bunch of tracks from 8. I like 8 better than 7 and 9 myself. I loved the Junction System after I learned the damn thing.

The music in FF8 is all in the places you visit, the three main battle tracks are so-so. Laguna's tracks are pretty cool though.
