Best game themes

Spoiler filled but amazing

 

 

It's Samuel Barber's "

" .. a very beautiful piece of music and I've never seen a more appropriate use of it than Homeworld.. it really makes the situation so much more powerful.

I've always loved the Knight of The Old Republic Themes.. but especially The Sith Lords

. It was used expertly in the revelation scene with Kreia and the council.

It's cool, but I also like the more outlandish electro stuff a lot.

Those sound almost arabian - very cool.

 

Adagio for Strings is powerful in Platoon as well.

 

Oh yeah, I had forgotten that.. Basically the piece is extremely good at conveying loss.

I recommend the soundtrack for Xenoblade Chronicles. One of the best soundtracks in a long time(imo.)

 

I would recommend the Dungeon Siege III soundtrack, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

Frozen Synapse

 

A Functioning God

Focus

Triumph

Woah, that got me interested. Can somebody give me a synopsis what this game is about? I know it's indie, but from the screesnhots it looks like a top-down turn based TRON game.

Yes, its perfect.

 

If games ever came close to being art that was then:

 

It makes 90% of sci fi films I've seen look like the work of amateurs.

И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.

IWD, anything that deals with Upper and Lower Dorns Deep. Epic. :)

One of the best things about buying the big box of all things IWD (except the effin Trial of the Luremaster for some reason) was getting the sound tracks :)
