A collection of my favorite videogame music. Note that most of them are from games I played so I might miss some great ones from games I never played.
PC
Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun
Lone Trooper
Badass
Funny that it is still my ringtone and playing in my car once in a while.
subterranean units detected
The one thing that instantly makes me zoom the cursor back to my base.
3:01 . nuff said
I think scout sounds better than lone trooper, especially paired with the gameplay.
Interesting. I did not know that. But I couldnt find information about it on the web. What's your source?
Frank Klepacki
Jarrid Mendelson
this song is gansta! never really played pc games, but music like this makes me wanna second guess that and game some on pc games this track is tight!!!
Frank Klepacki = one of the top 10 VGM composers of all time
Graeme Norgate is another.
Agreed but this track was done by Jarrid Mendelson
What a wonderful conversation. xD
@SupraDarky Which mission??
@VaticanIscariot yah, i like Rareware games.
@tttc and a plotline. EA can't make a good plotline to save their balls
@MrAgnost EA bought out the C&C series AFTER Tiberian Sun, we can't credit those fuckers for ruining a great franchise. I mean if they had made Tiberian Sun, maybe they would have only been like half of the fuck ups that they are now. (C&C wise, EA makes some other good franchises IMHO.)
westwood game studios for ever , PERIOD , agree folks ? tumbs up for WW :D
@Pr3da1or666 I'm more of the original one that started it all :D
I didn't want to stray too far from the original C&C soundtrack, but it had to be more futuristic and ambient. From there I tried to capture the mood the designers wanted for each mission. I even brought in another composer for some of the in game scores, Jarrid Mendelson, who I knew would compliment my style for this genre of music. Also, you'll notice I put more development into GDI & NOD's signature themes for the movie sequences[9]. —Frank Klepacki, Senior Composer Awesome Composer.
@killersithlords Not to mention Mass Effect and Dragon Age. All sins forgiven.
@aznphil88 hell yeah i totally agree with you
@Praune2Forevea the fuck tat mean?
@tttc well it may have been the end of EA never bought it.. Maybe Rare could have had a shot at it. Rareware made some nice games =(.. It seems like this is the path companies pick. They fire most of the developers of an awesome game to hire a new staff so the company wont have to pay as much.
@jwaffe Ummm..EA made Dead Space...your comment is now invalid.
@Praune2Forevea If so then Activision must suck Elephant balls.
@DefendinMyBase RA3... it's bad. the voice acting is so bad it hurts, and it's nowhere near as tight as RA2, control wise. The graphics are really bad too. I agree.... EA hasn't made a really good game since 007: Agent Under Fire. Generals was ok, but it was nothing, NOTHING compared to Tiberian Sun or the original CnC. Why do the invalids of game design have control over the best franchises?
i think Rare should buy back the 007 franchise from EA =\ i dont have any current generation console gaming platform.. but if Rare announce they are making a 007 game.. id buy whatever console its on. i bought N64 for Golden Eye =3...
HOLY SH*! its so much better than the stupid heavy rock metal tunes that we hear today, those wannabe "sad tunes" or the orchestrated stuff
thanks for agreeing if only there was somone out there who could make games like they are supposed to be maby some unlicenced fan games will stand true.
Agreed.
EA has raped C&C4 untill its butt bled the only hope you have for the series is to have a collection of dedicated fans and mods to create a true sequil.
Looking forward to C&C4! What will Kain do next?
Im from the future EA Buried C&C xD
I love C&C. Plain and simple, now EA is taking everything I love, throwing it in a blender of fail, then throwing it all out, and adding their own special recipe of fail. They did OK with Generals, it's just not really a Command and Conquer game, it's more a new game series all together. Tiberiumars was OK. Well it WAS but then the updates came around. Next they screwed over The Red Alert Universe with Red Alert 3. I haven't played it, but I heard a lota ppl hate it. Now with Tiberium Twilight..
red alert 2 is the best imo
EA seems to be getting a bad reputation these days :D though I can see why.
gr8 )
Command & Conquer was a great, great franchise when Westwood made the games. Then EA baught it, or whatever, and the quality has been very poor after that. The only good one was Generals, but it was lacked flexibility.
brings back so many memories, sitting in the lobby chatting, till they disabled it of course, with this music in the background.
i agree
Nope. They fused with EA
Nice!
incorrect, Westwood is not EA. westwood was bought by EA. big difference. what im trying to say is that EA sucks and doesnt care about its customers, unlike Westwood. i must say i LOVE many EA games, but i hate EA as a publisher. SecuROM and stuff. also, EA removed the downloads for the Battlefield 2 booster packs, wich are supposed to be downloaded from there after purchase. they are still in the shops but you get nothing at all for your money
Tiberian Sun has indeed great music, very athmospheric and fits the scenario very well.
this is correct, westwood are now EA
The last thing I heard of them they were bought out by EA.
Does Westwood even exist anymore? I got a nostalgia hit from seeing their logo in the box art.
Wasn't too crazy about the game, but a great soundtrack none the less.
Hmmmm....this song sounds like it would be good for a difficult mission, or something that requires lots of planning.
I've never played this game but hearing this makes me want to.
i remember this track it's right in the beginning of one of the champains. there's another one that onlyn plays this part 1:43
A song that fit the mission very well, all alone against overwhelming odds.
