It's hard to narrow it down to just a few even.

Any version of Fi's theme from Skyward Sword is definitely up there.

Reset from the near end of Okami. The only moment in gaming that actually made me cry.

Dearly Beloved in it's many forms. Again, not really sure which is my favorite.

Death Mountain theme from A Link Between Worlds.

I think one of the best video game soundtracks has to be mafia 3. The game gets a good bit of hate, but I don't think anyone complained about the soundtrack. Even outside of the studio tracks in the car, the guitar solo parts made specifically for the game on some boss levels was amazing.

I've always been a fan of the Suikoden sereies. When I saw the opening cinematic of Suikoden 3...my body was ready.

Alright I can't be in this thread without composing a mega list. There's just too many songs that have impacted me over the two decades I've been gaming. In no particular order:

1. Undyne's End - Undertale
2. Chemical Plant Zone - Sonic 2
3. Main Theme - Assassin's Creed 3
4. Dire Dire Docks - Super Mario 64
5. Sanctuary - Kingdom Hearts 2
6. Dearly Beloved (KH2 Version) - Kingdom Hearts 2
7. Song of Healing - Majora's Mask
8. Title Theme - Ocarina of Time
9. Gerudo Valley - Ocarina of Time
10. Aerith's Theme - Final Fantasy VII
11. Cosmo Canyon - Final Fantasy VII
12. Protoman's Whistle Theme - Megaman 3
13. Gwyn's Theme - Dark Souls
14. Soul of Cinder - Dark Souls 3
15. Hopes and Dreams/SAVE the World - Undertale
16. Rainbow Road - Mario Kart 64
17. Dr. Wily - Megaman 2
18. Guile's Theme - Street Fighter 2
19. Midna's Lament - Twilight Princess


I reserve the right to come back and add to this list as I think of things. I know I'm forgetting a ton.

Here is my favorite song LINK

I love Nier and all of its OST. I would list dozens of entries, but less is more.

Title theme from Metroid.

I might also say either the title theme or "Hall of Souls" from Quake. Trent Reznor is a genius. That soundtrack deserved to grace a more horror-themed game like System Shock 2 rather than an action game like Quake.

Dunno about songs, but as far as soundtracks Ultima III: Exodus from my Atari 800XL will forever be burned in my mind.

Also, that island stuff grew on me after hearing my old lady playing Tropico for hours.

Ha ha ha, man, it's funny you should mention that about Ultima 3. My parents' friends had it on an Atari computer and I played it all the time whenever we visited their house. Finally I convinced my parents to buy a computer for me and that was one of the games that they got, but they got a PC, and that version of the game didn't have any music. That soundtrack bounced around in my head for years until I finally found an emulated version of the game with soundtrack not too long ago. Really took me back!

'Far Away' from Red Dead Redemption.

It is the song playing when you enter Mexico for the first time.

The song that plays after the mission where you kill Dutch is great too. "Compass" by Jamie Lidell.
