I was listening to freaking Skullgirls music and thinking "omg I want this friggin game on PC already," and then it got me reminiscing about old video game tunes that were surprisingly awesome. Here's a small list I made of some themes I loved that I still remember. If you've got a list of your own, post it.

And everything from Halo 1-3's OST.
And the Battlefield theme. 1942(3) being preferred.

I'll post a post a link later (maybe) as my internet is too slow to go to all of the YouTube video's and post links (I don't frequent YouTube and since I'm on a dail-up connection it'll be really slow), so if you know this one song that I'm listing, good for you, if not then you'll have to wait.

Live to Forget (and others that I can't remember the name's of, but pretty much every song by Fire Lake, STALKER Call of Pripyat)

[censored] I forgot a couple.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8cELTdtw6U - Bastion

Just one brilliantly haunting song from a brilliant soundtrack.

I don't really have a list, because there's just way too many amazing tracks in video games. So instead, I'll just take a quick look through my favorites on YouTube and link them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gt_XTmUtjmw - Chrono Cross
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFiSb9SBOW0 - Chrono Cross
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyIjbs_TPgM - King's Field

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftvpi-6Z6qw&list=PL142904ECFCE066AE&index=1&feature=plpp_video of Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

Never played Arcanum, but that main theme is very, very good.
