Best or most Powerful music you ever heard in a game

[EscalatorBoy]

Harry Gregson-Williams' score in Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3 was simply outstanding.

 

Chrono Trigger also comes to mind as being incredible throughout.

I like a lot of soundtracks or single pieces out of games, but the soundtrack from Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is probably my favourite one over the last few months

Mafia 2

[Burusutazu]

The best music for climbing a rocket.

[D4V3_G]

Used to sit for an hour at the menu screen listening to this music... Good memories in this game 

 

[Kendrick]

Skyrim and Runescape.

[Jaad]

that deadmou5e song from goat simulator

Mario theme tune?
Everyone knows that.

[MiyagiDoKarate]

[GoldSrc]

That moment when you first land in skellige and start hearing "fields of ard skellig" in the background is one of my most cherished gaming memories.

[MisterVRT]

The orchestra version of "To Zanarkand" from FFX is nothing short of epic

 

[WynLore]

It has to be that one for me.


Then again... this one is a very good contender IMHO.

(Yeah, I know, its overrated, but I fuckin' love it)

As others have already done I have to also post some Zelda. I could post something from any of those games, every one has at least one track that's amazing. Especially in the context of the game. Infact if someone asked me to post the ten best themes from games I'd probably have to stop myself from posting just stuff from Zelda.

 

Also, sticking with Nintendo for a bit here.... they also have one of the best opening themes. And it was on the NES of all systems. Start that game and you immediately know what the deal is. Super Metroid is just as good but because of the extra tools available to them? The sound isn't quite as unsettling. IMO.

 

Outside of Nintendo? It might be a bit obvious but the Beach Boys scene in Bioshock Infinite is the one that sticks out for me.

I fucking loved the mission in Far Cry 3 where you burned weed with a flamethrower while Skrillex played in the background.

I always get stuck humming the Elder Scrolls theme song any time I play any of the games

I liked NFS: Most Wanted's soundtrack for the most part

Other than that, I can't think of many other games that had music that really stood out to me. My brother says Undertale has a pretty good soundtrack, but I haven't/probably won't ever play it, sooooo...

[WereCat]

Game: The Talos Principle

Music: Virgo Serena

Game: Serious Sam Classic - The Second Encounter

Music: Grand Cathedral

[totjup5]

For me it's either the soundtrack for the Witcher 3, or The Halo 1 theme.

[Delicieuxz]

There are a lot I could reference from Chrono Trigger.

Command & Conquer, will remember this one forever

Red alert, can listen to this one all day

Loved this one in arkham city

And this one is awesome as well

There's lots more but these are the ones i thought of immediately when i saw the topic.

[iAsuno]

I really liked the music in Guild Wars 2, The Witcher 3, Final Fantasy IX, and Metal Gear Rising. MGR's music just feels like "fuck yeah" when i am playing the game.

[PC POWER]

I've always been a huge fan of NES Ninja Gaiden music, but I'm old so...

[Dobbsjr]

Zelda music

[IhazHedont]

Max Payne 3 OST is gorgeous.

 

In another style, TW3 is also very good.

[Sumtinwon]

Seeing some neat things here..
