Didn't see a thread for this, so here I go.
Do any of you listen to video game music? Whether it be straight from the games or remixed, orchestrated, soundtracks with vocals, whatever. What do you like?
I myself really like pretty much anything from the Zelda and F-Zero franchises. There's TONS of Zelda music out there (Zelda Reorchestrated, among others), but the 25th Anniversary Zelda CD (packaged with Skyward Sword for the Wii) is one of my favorites. Performed by the Japanese Symphony Orchestra. I'm not one for medleys, and there's a number of them on there, but I think they did a great job with them.
My bro was the one who turned me on to a lot of the Zelda music out there. He listens to a lot of that, F-Zero and... I think Timesplitters? Lol, that's a name I haven't thought of in a long time.
I'd listen to more F-Zero music in my vehicle... but I'm kinda afraid to do that.
My kids are really into Pokemon, so I pulled out my copy of the very first Pokemon soundtrack. Gets regular air time in the wife's car, lol.
One franchise I should listen to more of is Dark Souls. I used to play DkS3 boss themes from Youtube on the computer at work on my breaks. So good.
I also have the soundtracks from the first 3 Halo games. They're pretty good for background music IMO, but I haven't listened to them for quite a while now.
