Video Game Music nostalgia.

[Clarkie]

Here's a chance to connect to old memories of games via their soundtracks, sometimes just listening to the music of a game can put you back in the moment of playing it. We can't post video, but a link and description of the game may make you hark back to those days of yore where a game really captured your imagination, or just evoked a time and technology - Here's Jonathan Dunn's music for the first Robocop game, it's a classic and a great piece of music in itself. I can remember the excitement of the Spectrum soundcard, this still stands up today - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=os57CXh6COw&feature=kp

This slightly upbeat song made the game even creepier when I was younger.

Songsss...of Adventure!

[Pyrebomb]

I always catch myself humming "The Boat Song" from the PSX version of Lunar under my breath.

Also, pretty much any version of "Bloody Tears" brings back memories.

Good memories from kicking butt and taking names aboard the Dark Queen's Ratship in Battletoads & Double Dragon. Opening music always puts me in that zone:

Love Bayonetta soundtrack, especially with game play sounds!

Cool Spot

[Ghost]

Streets of Rage/ Bare Knuckle. I remember alot of times I would just stop and let the cool music play while I did something else lol.

[Melchior]

Well, here is a trio:

The ending theme of Legend of Mana - always makes me think of the stories of all the characters and how they weave together.

Then there is the classic Super Metroid theme -

And finally, the classic Final Fantasy prelude - heard this many a time. Just a sense of wonder and peace.

Ride the tiger from Virtua fighter

Was talking about Street Fighter yesterday, I always thought it was cool that the Capcom vs. SNK games had a background theme that basically mixed all the old Street Fighter intro music together into one 3:20 minute piece:

Not THAT nostalgia since it isn't that old, though it is from 2002, the theme from the James Bond Nightfire game is awesome(this is the best song from anything James Bond IMO):




From Chrono Trigger I have these:

Song that plays in Zeal
