The Hyrule Overworld Theme from LOZ and the FF Victory Fanfare shall forever be engrained inside my skull.

Although I'm suprised nobody has said the theme to Lylat Wars (StarFox 64) or Bowser's Theme from SM64.

Or even better yet, the underground theme from Super Mario Bros, officially the funkiest old-skool tune ever. Doo-dot doo-dot doo-dot!

Black Widow 06-23-2006 03:01 PM

Yeah...the Super Mario Brothers underground theme has actually been used as a rap beat once or twice.

Few of the most memorable would be definitely the old Amiga/Commodore game themes, such as "Great Giana Sisters", "Lotus I, II and III", "The Duel: Test Drive II" and of course "Jumping Jackson". Mega Man musics should never be forgotten, either! Ah, the nostalgy...

Of the more recent tracks, I should mention "Yojimbo battle theme", "Auron's Theme" and "Otherworld" from Final Fantasy X, and "Moonlit Wilderness", "Unforgiven", "Ka-En-No-Mai" and "Opening song" from Tekken 5.

Dungeons and Dragons Lip Service
 
I like the music that's played inside the Friendly Arm Inn in Baldur's Gate 1, it's very catchy. And the other Black Isle Forgotten Realms games have all-around good music too; especially the fight theme in Balder's Gate 2 and the general theme song for Icewind Dale.

I love the all the music from "The Eldar Scrolls IV:Oblivion" on XBox360, but if we are going to go old school, then three old Amiga tunes, Speedball 2, Xenon 2 Megablast and a couple of the tunes from Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge are still stuck in my head.

I still find myself whistling the original Mario theme... even though I've heard it very few and far between in the last decade.

cradle 07-07-2006 07:15 AM

the theme music from the bysantine power game level on max payne

Black Widow 07-28-2006 08:33 AM

Oh yeah, a couple more...some themes from Eternal Champions (Sega Genesis ftw), the entire Tekken 3 soundtrack, the Name Entry theme for Tekken Tag (makes a good rap beat too...), and Jawbreaker's theme from Double Dragon 5 (that one fighting game on the Genesis that had a dominatrix as one of the bosses...)

and just about every song from Sonic The Hedgehog 1 & 2.

Deffently Super Mario Brothers Theme or Zelda

Stoner 10-28-2006 04:51 AM

Oh and Tetris (I'm obsessed with it)

Splintered 10-28-2006 12:44 PM

The Rainbow Six Theme comes to mind.
So does the Deus Ex theme.

Slap Your Love 10-31-2006 05:56 AM

Humm, I always like the Sonic themesongs. =] I have the main song on my cell phone now. Ha.

Lexie 11-05-2006 01:41 AM

I'm glad Halo 2 and Oblivion were mentioned. Also I'm surprised there are so many LOZ fans. My favourite that I can remember is either in Halo 2 about mid-game or the the for Hitman II: Silent Assassin.

insertwittyname 11-05-2006 03:25 AM

Zelda's Lulluby...damn I never knew it was that hard to spell that... and the Lost Woods theme songs. From the N64 Ocarina of Time. I whistled those for 4 years straight.

Godslayer Jillian 11-05-2006 11:47 AM

I have Zelda's Bolero of Fire on my iPod. That's how awesome it is.

Oh, and the best song ever in the videogame history:


One Winged Angel!!!!!


Praise Sephiroth!!!!

AzrealZ 11-09-2006 12:40 PM

Final Fantasy 1 theme music and victory music, SMB underground music, and original LoZ theme music. Awesome tunes all of theme! And that Zelda video with the dancing and the lights and the bad disco...oh GOD someone get it out of my brain!

knightmare 11-09-2006 12:53 PM

Anything by Nobuo Uematsu, the man is a genius. Final Fantasy VII music is amazing! His music makes mine look infantile. Oh, have any of you heard of the Black Mages? He adds rock to the Final Fantasy themes. It's amazing music.

Born Again 11-09-2006 03:26 PM

The Lost Vikings theme, my mom was super addicted. When I heard this theme song, I knew dinner wasn't to be served.

BlackButterfly 11-09-2006 03:55 PM

You guys have pretty much said all of my faves...
all the Super Mario Bros. stuff,
"One Winged Angel", "Aerith's Theme", "To Zanarkand", (ah hell, if it's from Final Fantasy, I'm all over it! Uematsu's a freakin' GENIUS!!)
about half of the Katamari Damashii soundtrack,
the old-school LOZ stuff,
Tetris,
Sonic the Hedgehog (I OWNED at that game!! :D),
"Hikari" from Kingdom Hearts (never played the game, but I LOVED the Japanese version of that song...)

...but shame on you all... no one has yet mentioned Pac-Man (you can't even SAY the phrase "old-school video game" without that coming to mind!

owlx 12-14-2006 10:09 AM

I know people have already mentioned Zelda, but...
The windmill song from Zelda OOT. I'll be playing the game and just stay in one spot for a while so I can listen to it. Same with the song playing in the water mill inside of the clock tower in clock town in Majora's Mask...what a mouthful.
I have the soundtrack to OOT but sadly the MM one is rare/very expensive =(

Nocturalis 12-14-2006 11:40 AM

Atreides and Ordos themes from Emperor battle for dune.
Nightelf theme from warcraft 3.
Sonic 2: pretty much every level, but chemical plant and metropolis really stand out.
Skies of arcadia: battle music.


And yes, anything from zelda, banjo and mario.

Tumor 12-14-2006 07:33 PM

"One-Winged Angel" from Final Fantasy VII.

Feeble Minded 12-14-2006 08:22 PM

Now that I have visited VGMusic, I can remember the songs from Chrono Cross. Anything from Chrono Chross, especially after you defeat someone or something.

Agreed. Liberi Fatali is a masterpiece.
