Yeah, the soundtrack from Crysis2 is definitely the best. I wish that game had gotten more praise than it did.

I agree with most of these. Sonic Adventure 2 had some good music, and obviously soundtracks from games like Ocarina of Time and Banjo Kazooie are good for the nostalgia.

I definately agree with Sonic Adventure 2, I loved listening to it's songs when I was around 7 or 8, but I couldn't fit it onto the list, the rest, I've never played.

I never heard any of these apart from the Bioshock one. I like the Crysis 2 song and some cool parts from the GoW1 one.

Here are some of my favs:

…and the Half Life 2 credits song, which I can't

I love Half Life, but I don't really remember any of the songs from the game, but the song you showed me was pretty cool.

Also, Crysis 2's soundtrack is sexy. It captures the exact mood and tone of the game and what it's about.

It's a shame that the game itself felt buggy, rushed and the multiplayer was horrible. If it weren't for these problems I am sure that it would've been one of the best fps's of all time.

Crysis 2 above super mario 64? Above metroid prime? Above any zelda you care to mention?

Naw man. Naw.

I don't get what the deal is with the hate on Crysis2 multiplayer. I thought it was really fun and would play a lot more if I actually knew other people who played; even though I only play free for all because every time I play teams my team is full of noobs.

Same with Bioshock2, even though the multiplayer is very unfriendly to low levels and laggy and the fact that most people hate it I had fun with it.

Edit: Yeah, Metroid Prime 1 and 2 had good soundtracks. Also I think he was rating it based on quality of song, not nostalgia.

Well, I'm actually pretty good at Crysis 2's multiplayer, the last time I played it, I had 18 kills and no deaths, but the game itself is broken and buggy. For one, the spawns are by far the worst out of any game that I've ever played. (Even worse than COD's) There were many times, at the VERY BEGINNING of a match, I'd spawn just a few feet away from an enemy. There's one map specifically that it always happens on, but I forget the name of it. Also, the maximum armor abiblity, is very unbalanced. Stealth is fine(most of the time).

Lastly, I find no reason to play it's multiplayer, when there's so many other games that do it better, like Halo Reach, Battlefield or even COD.

EDIT: Yeah, I was kind of rating it based on the quality of the song.

Apart from the Song of Storms and maybe the Gerudo and the Forest Temple themes, did Zelda games really have any memorable music? :/

I have more fun playing Crysis2 than CoD most of the time. And yeah, my first game was K/D >3, so I'm pretty good. Campaign's definitely superior to any CoD, same for the music and graphics. I didn't really mind the spawns in Crysis, then again, I mainly play free for all and that might have something to do with it. At least it's not like CoD and will spawn your entire team across the map and spawn the enemies directly next to you… Happens practically every time I play HQ.

I don't mind maximum armour, and I find stealth annoying a lot. Of course most people are dumb enough to think it's complete invisibility and rely on that.

Edit: Zelda has a lot of memorable songs. The opening to OoT, Termina Field, practically all hyrule fields, Temple of Time, Song of Time, Spirit Temple… There's a lot.
