Wow!

I am simply flabbergasted there is no Final Fantasy in there.

I fist started playing games in 1980 on a commadore Vic20.

To this day, the Final Fantasy series has had some of the most beloved and memorable soundtracks of all the games I’ve ever played.

There is a huge following of musicians that play FF music on youtube, check them out.

Absolutely amazing!

“Only the best games have the best music.”
>8C
That made me lose faith in this website instantly.
So the gameplay feels like mistaking sandpaper with your regular loo roll, it doesn’t mean the music is auto-terrible.
Take Silver Surfer, for instance.
Frustrating game, I’ll admit, but certainly not terrible. And with Tim Follin at the helm of H.M.S. Soundtrack, how can you go wrong? Incredible music.

Definitely Xenogears and FF6.
And Genso Suikoden II.
I think people need to listen to more classic Nintendo soundtracks. The harmony and melody of so many of them coerce so well, if you don’t mind a lack of broad instrument ranges.
For example, Castlevania II, Mega Man III, and Little Nemo the Dream Master.
