Why is it that there are only three good game soundtracks, when film has so many great ones of their own?

because you obviously have absolutely no perspective
Lincoln Long
explain?
Ryder Howard
Homeworld 2 has an incredible soundtrack
Xavier Watson
>elder scrolls
Henry Kelly
you clearly haven't played many games, or a wide variety of games
Ayden Carter
I've played many games.
My main interests are music and games.
But none of them have competent soundtracks.
Brayden Robinson
Michael Hughes
>you clearly haven't played many games
thank god for that
Kayden Carter
I can think of plenty of amazing game soundtracks, but I'm assuming you mean scores? Dark Souls and Shadow Of The Colossus have great scores. Final Fantasy as well.
Parker Nelson
>Dark Souls
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
>SOTC
Can't think of a single great theme.
>Final Fantasy
Mostly midi-shit.

Oh okay so disregard your opinion then. Gotcha.

Games only got around to using real orchestras and instruments in the last 10 years. Film has been doing it since the start.
Plus the game industry started 70 years after the film industry did. Its purely a matter of time.
Soule mostly uses DAW and virtual instruments but does it very well, good composer.
the Medal Of Honor: Allied Assault soundtrack is one of the best imo. Michael Giacchino is a master composer.
Other honorable mentions:
FF VI, VII, and VIII
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Super Metroid, Metroid Prime
Quake (NIN / trent Reznor)
Medieval II: total War
HOMM III
This has been one of my favorites recently:
youtube.com
Symphony of the night really has great music. very baroque inspired.
Jacob Rogers
...
Joshua Howard
What is Quake
Asher Mitchell
>what is Civilization
Asher Moore
A game that uses music from pre-existing composers.
Camden Richardson
Grant Kirkhope is an excellent composer. His work on Kingdom of Amalur and Grabbed by the Ghoulies are my favorite ones.
Gavin Nelson
Jaxson Butler
Op is right when he says that The Elder Scrolls has good music, but to be honest, the most memorable songs in all video games is the theme for GTA IV. Soviet Connection, I think it's called. It's very good.
Ian Gutierrez
why is morrowind the only elder scrolls with an interesting setting?
what went right
Robert Ward
Age of Wonders OST
Aaron Reyes
no one's mentioned guild wars lol
Oliver Myers
>elder scrolls soundtracks
>good

Actually,
BABA YETU BIN BOO EE YA

Nier has an incredible soundtrack.
youtube.com
Plenty of jrpg's have incredible soundtracks in fact, for example;
>persona 3
youtube.com
>chrono trigger
youtube.com
Half life 2 has a great soundtrack as well
youtube.com
plenty of games have great soundtracks, and just like in movies, the two paired together can mean so much more than just a song, or just a game
Adrian Myers
both portals, l.a. noire, bioshock, wolfenstein: the new order

>tfw my mom digs the Witcher 3 score
She usually hates most music
Luke Peterson
It's true that the Elder Scrolls series has amazing soundtracks, but it sure as hell ain't the only games with good soundtrack.
Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura
Spyro the Dragon trilogy
Mass Effect trilogy
Pillars of Eternity
Heavy Rain
L.A Noir
Heavy Rain
Red Dead Redemption
These are just the one I can pick out from the top of my head.
Owen Thomas
Dragon ball Z Legacy of Goku series
A lot of Pokemon
Transformers Autobots and Decepticons for DS
Hotline Miami
Arguably Minecraft
I liked Terraria's OST
Jet Set Radio of course
Jaxson Stewart
>all these bullshit orchestra OST
i bet that you faggots enjoy hans zimmer scores unironically
anyway, superior ost coming through: youtube.com
Jayden Cox
metroid prime has the best game ost
you cant prove me wrong
Evan James
Anything by Jeremy Soule and the Marty O'Donnell/Michael Salvatori team is god tier
There's many others.
also film is like 4x older than games what is wrong with you
Logan Nelson
Super Metroid OST> Metroid Prime OST
Jaxon Baker
>Hates based Morrowind
>Likes weebshit
Die
Matthew Morris
Halo's are god tier. Especially ODST
Brody James
Skyrim's music was pretty meh-tier. The only memorable song was the remade Morrowind theme.
Levi Campbell
isn't it straight up Polish folk music?
Grayson Cox
anyone remember phantasy star iv on sega genesis(or megadrive for us yuropeans)?
youtube.com
Fucking awesome music in that game.
In general sega genesis has the best damn sounds of any console
Jackson Gray
shit game
Lucas Nguyen
Uncharted 2
Kayden Walker
seconding this, orchestra-based soundtracks are lifeless. literally stuck in time.
Ethan Young
None of these have good soundtracks. III and IV are irrelevant, and V is a dead meme that Bethesda wants to kick around for money.
Logan Powell
Skyrim has a competent soundtrack, but goddamn, that battle music gets so grating after a while.
Xenoblade has a very good, varied soundtrack.
Colton Nelson
back to bed Todd
Jose Cruz
Fuck off back to Sup Forums
Landon White
I like all the tryhards that try to differentiate themselves from their generation by hating on video games. It's even better when the reason they hate them is their retarded politics.
Samuel Wood
Colton Bailey
But user I like Videogames
I just don't like Sup Forums or people who shit up other boards with epicc videogame posts
Dylan Morgan
they're all plebs that only play triple-a games
Charles Allen
why does no one ever mention this one?
the whole thing is actually an album in form of game
Jose Gray
>He dislikes the rayman 3 soundtrack
James Johnson
>SOTC
>Can't think of a single great theme.
m8 i'd shank ya if ya said that to my face
Chase Adams
i remember the crucible scene in mass effect 3 had that wonderful clint mansell track and the stark quiet atmosphere and it all really stood out, making the betrayal by the story a little more bearable.
nier is goat too.
Julian Edwards
Bethesda cared back then.
Camden Wilson
The Mass Effect games had fucking great scores throughout
Jaxon Campbell
>>SOTC
>Can't think of a single great theme.
I would call you a fag, but.. that's not even faggotry..
that's blasphemy.
this.
Aiden Long
...
Brandon Russell
MoH:AA had a GOAT soundtrack
This one was also really good (though in a different way)
Also, regardless of how you feel about the game itself, Undertale's soundtrack was pretty awesome.
Dylan Fisher
David Robinson
I enjoy Mount & Blade's soundtrack more than the game itself
youtube.com
Dylan Reed
Drakengard series including Nier
No More Heroes 1 & 2
This guy's correct as well
Aaron Lee
Nier is fucking amazing. Like the gameplay is so fucking garbage but everything else is good enough to make up for it. Love that game.
>tfw wandering around the town trying to save your daughter while the sun sets and this song plays

And the fucking intro
>First thing you see is a ruined city covered in snow
>"Summer 2049"

Ummmm Bioshock has some good music, especially this. The part of the game that it is featured is one of the best moments in the whole thing

But.. But so many Zelda and Mario soundtracks.
Also, Halo 3 ODST had some good tunes, Journey, Entwined, EGTTR, Portal, Silent Hill 1/2/3, MGRR, etc.
Owen Young
nah but good pick tho
Juan Clark
you just have bad tastes then, hell the music in oblivion and skyrim isnt even that great.
Hudson Bailey
>only video games that have symphaggot scores are good
Easton Price
all of the tracks in all of those suck
i dont understand how threads about video game music get so far without a mention of any nintendo soundtracks. kondo and totaka are geniuses.
Jace Ramirez
Too bad the game was a 4/10 at best
Gavin Robinson

Pretty sure Akira Yamaoka worked on like 7 or 8 Silent Hill games, and that's just one franchise.
Jacob Howard
Darren Korb is the man.

Ryder Moore

Grayson Parker
literally every paradox game
Ian Long
Fuck. Best song on the soundtrack.
Outside of Bastion and Transistor, does he do anything else? Solo stuff?
Ryder Baker
No ;_;

He never said he does not enjoy medieval-village-killing-simulator, though.
