Do I need to say more?

To me Santaolalla’s music to this game is on par with Morricone’s to Leone’s Spaghetti Western movies. It’s like an added character.

This one is a close second, and I even dislike “fantasy” setting in games/movies

Tons, from early arcade and home computer/console tunes, to Playstation, PSP, Xbox etc later.

Video games sounds/soundtracks resonate with me far more than most other music/instruments.

Music from games are among the best since I can always relate to them even after the gameplay is done. Too many great songs, I’d give a few examples:
