Does anyone else listen to video game music? I listen to it all the time, i think it's way more interesting than the music today's generation listens to. Anyways, here's a basic link below just to sample the kind i listen to.

I listen to videogame music all the time. Final Fantasy series (just about all of them LMAO) + Chrisis Core and Crystal Chronicals (heck I even have the Advent Children soundtrack though it's technically a movie). Halo soundtracks (from all 3) Guilty Gear X Morrowind and Oblivion Einhander Lineage 2 (checks my MP3 player to see what I missed since I keep thinking of the Anime soundtracks I have..) Music by Bill Brown (who's done a crapload of things including Command and Conquer) Quake 2 (Love Sonic Mayhem) Diablo 2 Lost Oddesey Starcraft (lol) Unreal Vandal Hearts Wild Arms Turrican.. You get the picture

Not really my thing, personally. Occasionally some songs from DDR/ITG, but usually it's not because they're from the game, they just happen to be in the game.

Every now and then I listen to music from games. I like the music from the Final Fantasy series, Dragon Quest VIII, Kingdom Hearts, and Rogue Galaxy (underrated game and soundtrack).
And anyone here who listens to rock stations (modern or classic) has a pretty good chance of saying they have listened to music from Guitar Hero or Rock Band.

Lots of games have very good soundtracks, although I don't tend to listen to it much outside of the game other than for nostalgia purposes. Favourites include Final Fantasy music (before Nobuo Uematsu left), Metal Gear (pre and post Gregson-Williams) and the Sonic games (the 16-bit ones, before it started trying to be cool). Shadow of the Colossus had an excellent soundtrack too.

I have been leaning towards symphonic stuff lately rather than the techno mixes of music. Goes with whatever mood I'm in but my library is still growing LOL

Symphonic stuff? Think music from Ace Combat 4, 5, 0, and 6 will interest you?

Dunno I haven't heard it in a long time so I can't say for sure if I liked it. I got motion sickness from the first game LOL

Nobou Umetsu (SP? lol) Is an awesome compser, I love his music in the earlier Final Fantasy's. It's a shame he doens't work with them anymore. I like RPG Music, or simple stuff like Mario every once in-awhile.

What makes game music so interesting is that most, if not all of them are made with Synthesizers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SynthesizerBest damn invention on the planet.

Mine is more of a cheat to that technicality, stepmania, I added all the songs I ahve on there Although I do have one song thats actually from a game, Realize by Flow Although even to Eureka Seven fans, the games suck. Most of it isn't even part of the actual story of the show, and I mean like part of one cutscene each at most.

Does anyone know the name of the song that plays at 0:46 and 4:55 in this video?
Tried listening to the OST but I couldn't find it or maybe I just wasn't listening carefully....
