SO FUCKING GOOD

What are some of the best uses of music in games you've seen?
There's a really good, really long, really, really depressing and atmospheric Cyberpunk mod called G-String which uses an obscure pop song from 1969 in one of the best ways I've seen in a game.
Maybe about 4-5 hours in there's a part where you are starting to get used to the combat and everything, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izQB2-Kmiic starts playing and you suddenly encounter a bunch of hostile future police officers. What would otherwise be a bog-standard fight suddenly turns into a western style gun battle with the music, which hammers in the themes of the game.

I really enjoyed the Doom soundtrack on the SNES version. The PC soundtrack is great, but the SNES version just sounds so fucking sweet.

Everybody always praises Virt and he is super fucking talented but 99% of his shit feels like it needs the context of a game for me to appreciate it, it just feels so intrinsically like a retro game soundtrack that I can't listen to it on it's own.
I feel like I'm missing out desu
>>61228949
Pic related is the best of the series IMO (though 2 comes close)
>>61228978

It relies heavily on "dude games, lmao" to characterize its world and the gameplay is like a Fischer Price version of a bullet hell.

>>61238159
It's not really hard at all, linear as shit, and the terrible fanbase ruins any sort of online discussion you could ever have with this game, but it's probably one of my favorite games from the past few years. Definitely worth picking up, especially since it's only $8 now.

>needs context to listen to it
>feels like a retro game soundtrack
If anything, retro vidya soundtracks are the one kind of game OST that needs the least amount of context to appreciate. Castlevania, Mega Man, Sonic, Kirby, Double Dragon, Battletoads, Streets of Rage, Kabuki Quantum Fighter, Shinobi, Kunio-kun, Little Nemo Dream Master, Mario, Zelda, Final Fantasy, Ninja Gaiden, Rocket Knight Adventures, Bangai-O, Gauntlet, fucking Space Harrier -- these are all, just off the top of my head, old games/series with music strong enough to stand on their own because the songs can be so damn catchy. Not everything from all of these titles are amazing, but they all have at least one or two songs that will get stuck in your head. These days, it feels like Nintendo are the only major developer intent on NOT making all their games OSTs sound like goddamn movie scores.
As for the Mighty Switch Force OST, nigga if you need context just pretend you're listening to some hot new band that grew up listening to Daft Punk, Justice and UK garage all day.

Fuck no. DMC3 is one of my favorite games ever but the OST is shit outside of like, 3-4 songs. DMC1 is the only DMC with a good OST.
Other good OSTs:
>Metroid Prime 1 and 2
>Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2
>Kingdom Hearts series
>The Wonderful 101
>Bayonetta 1
>No More Heroes 1
>Mighty Switch Force 1 (presumably the second game too from what I've heard but I haven't played that one yet)
>Kid Icarus: Uprising
>Madworld and Anarchy Reigns (THE best hiphop soundtracks in vidya)
Also as a rule, JRPGs tend to have good soundtracks.

This.

And this.
>>61238186
Video games are underrated as fuck as a medium, with the potential they have, but I hope this is just bait and that you don't actually believe that.
>>61240503
It's up there, but video games has it beat slightly. Although it's hard to judge since I don't know much about the non-mainstream tv-show stuff
Arcanum godtier tbqh
>>61238159
The combat system is interesting, and the characterization's a little refreshing outside of the usual banter with NPCs, but the game is too short, too linear, and too shallow to be given any serious recommendation.
