Jacks, those are awesome! And I agree about the AC4 stuff, I've really been enjoying the music in that game actually. The "Caribbean" theme to all of it is nice and the shanties are incredible. I actually get kind of bored by all the ship stuff, but I do love just getting out on the open sea and going to travel speed.

Gears of War has always had a soundtrack I particularly enjoy. This s the theme from the third game, but there are several really excellent tracks.

Supreme Commander has some really excellent tracks. I really like Jeremy Soule's music, but he loves his ambiance which can ruin some of his songs. This one is great, though.

As is this one.

no one here will even notice you're gone. a testament to your passive-aggressive, useless, boring posting history.

so do you leave the rest of the soundtrack on?
I've got a bad habit of turning music off while on land, and turning it on while at sea just for the shanties.

you know, a great game that a lot of people missed (shitty advertising) which also has an amazing soundtrack is The Saboteur. it's full of 20's and 30's-era Jazz, big band, and club music that really puts you in the atmosphere of World War 2 occupied France. cruising around in an armored motorcycle and blasting Nazi's while eating a croissant has never been so relaxing...

Some good picks, here's some of mine

-----

Battle the Caedeus in Monster Hunter 3. Really good music in general in this game, but I like this one the most.

Been playing the new Zelda lately. Best Zelda in years also happens to have the best music in the series.

Gwyn, Lord of Cinder from Dark Souls

Dancing Mad from Final Fantasy 6. Longest Final Boss theme ever.

The Adventures of Batman and Robin for Genesis was scored by Jesper Kyd, who some of you might have heard of (he did Borderlands' music). This game has cool tunes.

My Favorite level theme from Metroid 3

No list on this forum would be complete without a little Unreal

Anyone who doesn't imply Forgone Destruction being a good one doesn't belong on this forum. ;)

Another good one from the UT series: Plasma Oscillator, the VCTF-Suspense music.

(I could cite most of the UT3 soundtrack here and a good selection of Unreal, RTNP, UT and UT2004 music as well.)

Tictac Remix from Trackmania Nations/United Forever Stadium:

Haven Town theme from Heroes of Might and Magic 5:

Lots of other good music in this game as well.

While it probably can't compare to most other music posted in this thread, I still like the Gold Rush theme from Ignition/Bleifuss Fun:

Stargunner had some nice music, too:

The Desent series (both CD and MIDI music for Descent 2), the C&C Tiberium and Red Alert series, Diablo 2 - all of them come with good soundtracks as well.

Oh, yeah. How could I forget? Descent has awesome music. Descent 2 had redbook audio. This was one of my faves.

I'm also partial to the Dead Island release trailer. One of the best I've ever seen/heard, yet the game turned out to be sh*t. :(
