Unforgettable Video Game Themes

[Gamerforlife]

Oh, and I just have to post this! The stage 1 music for Battletoads arcade! If this doesn't get you pumped to play the game, nothing will.



And you can't do a topic like this without some Streets of Rage tracks. Here's the boss theme and the one from the stage on the boat. Two of the games more badass tracks in my opinion

You bought up Rob Hubbard C64 music and DIDN'T mention Monty on the Run? Blasphemy I say!
I'll save your immortal soul by posting it myself

Pretty much all of Hubbard's music is good to awesome. The problem is I'm in the US so I never played Monty. Those 3 I mentioned I played a lot. I'm pretty sure Commando was the first game I ever flipped. I think my best run I went through it 5 times or something.

I've never played it either, but I accidently ran into the music online one day and it was awesome

There's Ryu's theme on Street Fighter 2, which is quite unforgettable, although his theme on Street Fighter Alpha 3 is superior.

Act Raiser's Music is very very memorable, in particular the main theme:


Symphonic version:


Filmore is also another track that is unforgettable:


Symphonic version:


Other unforgettable tracks in my opinion:
Jungle Stage from Contra
Bloody Tears from Castlevania series
Fountain of Dreams from Kirby series
Base track from Jurassic Park 2:

I hate to admit it, but it´s usually your favorite games that have the best music.
It´s because you play them

I've got another one. I was reminded when I finished Lufia 3 on the GBC. The final dungeon theme from the Lufia series:

This is probably my favorite theme from Final Fantasy 13. It's an adrenaline pumping, epic combat theme that only plays during certain special parts of the game. It's goes from this cool pumping techno sound to an epic, cinematic feel and back again. This is the proper, extended version, not the annoyingly short one I've seen on youbue. Honestly, they could have made this the game's main combat theme it's so damn good
