I recently started playing GTAV again and sometimes I’ll get in my car and let the radio stations play while I do house stuff. Favorite stations are the 80s one with Kenny Loggins, and West Coast Classics and Rock Radio.

Super Mario Galaxy (1+2). Orchestrated music should be a must for main Nintendo games at this point, outside of Zelda (and the Pokémon anime, although that one's not strictly Nintendo or used in actual games, sadly).

The Banjo games are such gems. I really need to replay those.

I can't believe no one has said Halo/Halo 2

Shadowrun for SNES had a pretty fantastic soundtrack. It did a lot with very little and really paints a picture of the setting very quickly. Another candidate from the same era is Planescape: Torment. It had this great haunting ambient sound that made Sigil feel so strange and ancient.

At the time though, if you'd asked me which game had the best soundtrack, I've had pointed to Tony Hawk, though I'm not sure if it was 1 or 2. The one with Party at Ground Zero. Found some great music of the era that way!

In no particular order: Final Fantasy XIV and XVI (Soken is a genius) Transistor Nier Automata Genshin Impact Destiny 2 The World Ends With You Persona 5 Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1/2

Honestly though the FF series as a whole kinda deserves its own special mention. The games have always had stellar soundtracks.

Dishonered, the drunken sailor cover goose bumbs still after all those years.

Every time when people talk about game soundtracks, they should include Chrono Cross

For recent games, FFXVI has an amazing soundtrack, I think the OST will be released on July 19th

I recently replayed Persona PSP, and that game has amazing soundtrack, but kinda marred by the fact that there's only one non-boss battle them, and the encounter rate is too high, so you ended up listening to the same song all the time.

  • Disco Elysium introduced me to Sea Power, who have a bunch of cool albums.
  • Outer Wilds - I think of the main theme every once in a while and remember all the awesome stuff in that game.

Ape Escape goes hard. It's not just the nostalgia.
