If you like old school video game music, and haven't heard of Metroid Metal... then prepare thyself....

canceromega on Aug 11 '11 at 3:32pm

Obligatory.

wearecareful on Aug 11 '11 at 3:38pm

hell yeah, Mega Man II

Skullmonkeys had some of the best songs ever

wearecareful on Aug 11 '11 at 3:40pm

oh, man. I am so down with this.

These are my two favorite songs to appear in a mario game:

If you get a chance to play bastion, one of the best things is it's soundtrack.

Musarter on Aug 11 '11 at 3:43pm

8-bit vIdeo Game theme music is so great. I am a link fool but Karnov had some epic music.

canceromega on Aug 11 '11 at 3:44pm

Also, underrated:

iPear on Aug 11 '11 at 3:46pm

This is such an epic song.

I can't pick just one from this series so here:

wearecareful on Aug 11 '11 at 3:50pm

oh shit, I just found the whole ninja gaiden soundtrack on grooveshark. This will be on repeat for the rest of my life

I could not stop playing Duck Tales. I had Tandy tape recorder that I used to record the music and sleep to it with headphones on

mike bautista on Aug 11 '11 at 3:55pm

Anna already got Mega Man II and Kirby's Dreamland (is it really underrated? It's soooo gooood!) So I give you:

Captain Skyhawk has THE BEST game over music (at 3:58). It's pretty much like "oh you died? s'cool."

I could play this forever, but Link to the Past might be my personal favorite.

canceromega on Aug 11 '11 at 3:56pm

Haha, Mike, I was expecting you to post this:

BEST IN THAT GAME.

martiandrivein on Aug 11 '11 at 3:59pm

this has some serious swag

and of course

Resistance on Aug 11 '11 at 4:00pm

PINBOT.... proving that even back then, RARE was freaking amazing

Resistance on Aug 11 '11 at 4:01pm

be sure on pinbot to skip to 2:00 after the opening song plays all the way through

mike bautista on Aug 11 '11 at 4:04pm

The music was so good in that game! But I didn't give myself any time to check out the soundtrack. Also, Valve has the whole Portal 2 soundtrack to download on their site I think.

But this is still their best song.

Resistance on Aug 11 '11 at 4:07pm

OH SNAP... SATURDAYS WITH DAD ROCKING THIS GAME

Musarter on Aug 11 '11 at 4:07pm

Hope this worked...if not

of the Beast

The Amiga computer had great games and great music ahead of it's time.

JeF on Aug 11 '11 at 4:11pm

I went to the Video Game Live concert last year when they were in Chicago, I'd really recommend seeing it if they come to your town.

citizen rifferson on Aug 11 '11 at 4:18pm

one thing I learned quickly as a kid is that underwater levels in video games usually sucked, but they always had great music..

if you want some badass game music shinobi is your man:

you can't have a game music blog without some boss music:

d3d on Aug 11 '11 at 4:20pm

skullmonkeys soundtrack was awesome. did anyone post the song from the end of portal 1 yet?

wearecareful on Aug 11 '11 at 4:20pm

martiandrivein on Aug 11 '11 at 4:21pm

I beg to differ... stickerbruch symphony was the best music in DKC

so good.

d3d on Aug 11 '11 at 4:21pm

Noh_Body on Aug 11 '11 at 4:28pm

this blog delivers

mike bautista on Aug 11 '11 at 4:30pm

Dammit I don't think I ever beat the underwater level in TMNT. Seriously pissed me off as a kid.
I put up the Portal 1 song, Leon.

Also the soundtrack to the Scott Pilgrim game.

I'm happy when I remember Anamanaguchi made a soundtrack for a game and it's awesome.

canceromega on Aug 11 '11 at 4:32pm

Dang, y'alls shoulda gone to Blipfest with me.

citizen rifferson on Aug 11 '11 at 4:36pm

@martiandrivein

oh snap! I totally forgot about "stickerbush symphony" I'm gonna be whistling that to myself for a week now I can tell..

jublin on Aug 11 '11 at 4:39pm

also a bunch of shit from SONIC

wytrab8 on Aug 11 '11 at 4:48pm

Shadow of the Beast! Went thru a lot of joysticks on that one...

Loved these:

one of the first game soundtracks i ever noticed was an 8bit version of Eric Clapton's Layla which i think appeared at the start of Outrun or something in the 80s.

Twiggyhall on Aug 11 '11 at 5:44pm

The nerd inside me is so happy right now.

This is one of my favorite video game songs of all time, it's my ringtone. So classique.

The snow levels in Donkey Kong Country were so intense. It makes sense too, beacuse freaking snow barrel blast was the hardest level. This music is so scarry.

Also, anna posted this earlier but around 4:50 is the theme song tot he island levels of Kirby's Dreamland. One of the most memorable, and catchiest songs I heard playing the gameboy growing up. So sick.
