What is your favorite video game soundtrack and why?
I figured this would be an interesting idea for a thread, and it deals with something that I am very passionate about.... video game soundtracks. I have a playlist of exactly 999 tracks (the number is a tribute to Final Fantasy 1's HP cap of 999) that I listen to for inspiration while I program and work on the RPG that I am creating, Division Blade.
My favorite though, would have to be Tales of Symphonia's soundtrack. It has 100+ tracks in it, nearly all of which are beautiful and fit the moments in the game that they are used perfectly. Out of all 100+ there are maybe 5 that I don't like. All the rest are great. When I hear these themes I feel inspired.
A close second is Final Fantasy 7. Nostalgia is a big part of why that one ranks so high. Many of the other Final Fantasy games' soundtracks round out my top 5 with Tales of Symphonia taking 1st place.
So.... what about the rest of you, do you have a favorite video game soundtrack and why do you like it the best?
