[Warped]

What are some of those tunes that just stick in your head all day long. Could be a game you used to play as a kid and you still love, or a recent favorite.

here are a few of mine:

I love that Smash Brothers song. it was the only one I'd play to any battle I could when the game came out. Also I have a lot of the Ace Combat music and I wish I played more of them in the day. I'd feel that if I got into them now it would feel heavily dated

Also one of the best songs ever:

[Zephos]

You want catchy?

(ignore the stupid remix)

Strong contender for saddest song in gaming history:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLiRgNFvfGw

I loved this so much, it's possibly the most eerily atmospheric game theme ever:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42u0KB6f5eU

Another great example of creating great atmosphere, such a sad song in a game whose story is anything but:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bz5zgLj03Ic

Favourite Half-Life song by far:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtqzEA7zbAE

Beautifully representative of the madness within the game:

Those are off the top of my head.

Damn Zephos, you're going to convince me to play through MOH Frontline on the PS2 again. That song is excellent.

Holy shit, how could I forget the music that defined my childhood?
