Halo Reach, hands down. Phenomenal, all the feels
Ones I haven’t seen in this thread yet:
Cuphead, Cave Story, Celeste, Dredge, Furi, Katamari Damacy (and others in the series), Peggle, Super Mario Galaxy
Homeworld and Hotline Miami are my two favorites!
Hotline Miami is an all timer for sure
Morrowind and project wingman are peak. FFXIV is fantastic with a persistent leitmotif across each entire expansion. The final endwalker boss basically wrapped up YEARS worth of story and that fight music was a medly featuring every expansion’s leitmotif and holy shit I can’t get over how incredible it was. Also the pandaemonium raid music. And Alexander. Seriously you can rabbit hole for HOURS on FFXIV music.
Project wingman and the Ace combat series is great!
Nier Automata. The entire discograpy
Replicant/Gestalt OST is also great.
Minecraft (incl. Wynncraft)
Minecraft soundtrack never gets old, even 3000 hours later I can still listen to it.
How has nobody mentioned Rimworld? Such an incredible soundtrack!
Been playing again recently after noticing there was a new DLC I didn’t have. I like the new tracks added by Anomaly.
Let’s try and keep it below
1011 entries:- Disco Elysium
- Outer Wilds
- Hollow Knight
- Shadow of the Colossus + Ico
- Pyre (+all other Supergiant games)
- Valkyrie Profile
- Banner Saga trilogy
- Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
- Chrono Trigger + Cross
- Eastshade
Honestly nowadays so many games have great soundtracks, it is a joy to behold! Makes it harder to chose favorites though…
Really good list. I wanna add stardew valley and Nier automata aswell.
Als I’m gonna check out valkyrie profile tomorrow, I’ve never heard of that game.
Hollow Knight is pure art
Aquaria: Original Soundtrack by Alec Holowka
Such an underrated game. RIP Alec.
Love the Towerfall OST myself, it was such a shock to hear about him.
Anything handled by Nobou Uematsu.
Is 2016 old enough now?
The DOOM 2016 soundtrack fucking rips.Original DOOM!

This immediately brought me back to the YTMND era. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVBalxt3NEU
My DUUUDE hahahaha
And tears
Until it is done
it’s been almost a decade. def old enough imo.
Idk, the jury is still out on that one… :)
My top four haven’t changed in a while:
- Chrono Cross
- Nier Gestalt/Replicant (original version)
- Persona 5
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
I love EDM, so any game that uses it or is inspired by it holds a special place in my heart, like Streets of Rage, Rez, Dance Dance Revolution, or the Trails of Cold Steel games (especially the second one).
- Halo Combat Evolved
- Mirror’s Edge
- Sim City 3000
- The Sims
- The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
- Fez
- Flatout 2
- Jet Set Radio
- Sword and Sorcery LP
OOT has such incredibly nostalgic music for me.
We’re on the same page as far as Mirrors EdgeI The Sims and SC3 goes, so I’ll trust your taste and listen to the other ones aswell. I’d want to add Portal 2 and Team Fortress 2 aswell.
Pokemon USUM. If there was a looped version of the tracks, I‘d probably listen to it every day lol, it just boosts my mood. Sadly, the soundtrack (that I have) has them at 1-2 minutes.
Bastion, Beyond Good & Evil, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, Mirror’s Edge.
and Hades, although I refuse to call it a “patient gamer” game
Hades, although I refuse to call it a “patient gamer” game
Why? It’s 6 years old at this point so I think it qualifies.
shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
BGE soundtrack is so good.
All the hades osts are so good. They just don’t miss.
Oh man the Mirrors Edge soundtrack is so good
