Christie’s Theme (Monster) from Dead or Alive 3. Quite enjoyable to listen to.
OK so I have a problem finding this song from a random Madden game. It was played with a complication of upcoming EA Sports titles. It was played by a college orchestra and the only words in the song were “EA Sports, is in the game”. I’ve been trying to find it on and off for years and I’m to the point where I’m about to buy up dozens of Madden copies to do so. As far as I know it has only been on a Madden game.
it’s been awhile but here is another SOR remix
So, who’s stoked about that Smash 4 soundtrack coming in March 2015? 2 discs, 36 racks per disc. I’m glad Nintendo is finally hooking those of us that don’t live in Japan up with a physical release, but let’s be honest here. That ain’t even CLOSE to all of the tunes in Smash 4 and you know the tracks will only loop once.
Well the folks at FFshrine have been slaving away and their collaborative efforts have paid off. A HQ rip of Smash 4’s music, containing tracks from the Wii U and 3DS version is finished. It’s super nicely organized with songs grouped into categories. Mario music in it’s own folder, Zelda music in it’s own, etc. On top of that, it comes with some nice album art. There’s lots of it to so you can tag it to your heart’s desire.
I want to put this on Shadow’s site, but this is almost 5 gigs worth of tunage. Anyone that want’s it, PM me.
Hyrule Warriors OST rip has also been finished as well and I’m LOVING it. I don’t know how to go about putting stuff on Shadow’s site though.
So before I go to bed I wanted to ask this thread since we’re pretty close to the end of this year…What games do you feel had the best OST’s for this year that you guys have played? I’d say nominate at most 3 titles for best OST and if possible link or place in spoilers at most 2 of your favorite tracks from those titles. I won’t be able to post mine tonight but I’ll try to do so when I get a chance.
You mean games released in 2014 or just whatever games we have played recently?
Just for 2014. It doens’t just have to be retail releases either, indie or downloadable only games count too.
I really liked Child of Light.
Allright , best of 2014 imo.
- (not sure if this one counts as it was released before, but got localized during 2014)

Ohhh yeahhhh
Don’t forget Mario Kart 8.
Child of Light’s music was really good and I STILL haven’t picked up Shovel Knight yet.
Nintendo and TecmoKoei pretty much took the cake for me this year. I’m sure Platinum would have probably made it onto my top 3 list if I could put down Smash long enough to play Bayo 2 lol.
- Smash U/3DS (of course)

Thing that surprises me the most about this game is that I actually enjoy the original compositions made for this game more than the remixes of themes from the Zelda franchise
Solidus Cave
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tO55-N5lizo
I can’t decide whether I like the regular version of this track more with the focus on the brass vs the focus on the guitar in the Crystal Cave variant
Silent Guardians
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wzi7UobHpAg
Eclipse of the Moon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuW38JQrDfY
Another track I have trouble choosing which is better…this with more focus on strings and brass or the GT variant with more focus on the guitar. The fact that these play when you’re fighting Cia makes them even more epic.
Honorable mention goes to Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze.
I think I missed the boat on a lot of OSTs due to not playing a lot of 2014 games. The 2014 games I did get to, however, did not disappoint in the music department.

Kirby Triple Deluxe had some great themes/remixes.
This is one of my favorite arranges of the year:
Remix of an Indie STG called Final Boss.
The Alien 3 Genesis sdtk with SNES samples

Dragon Driftway from the first DLC pack
I thought that drummer in the Dragon Driftway video looked familiar. Saw the name and it is indeed Hiroyuki Noritake aka the most famous drummer in the goat JP Jazz Fusion band, T-Square. Makes me happy that he’s still going strong. T-Square’s music sounds an awful lot like game music (The co-founder of T-Square, Masahiro Andoh aka the goat guitarist actually co-composed the entire official soundtrack for Gran Turismo 1), so check them out if you’re interested. Few samples in spoiler (You can see Noritake in the background doing his thing on the drums)
[details=Spoiler]Knight’s Song, which is actually a remix of “Moon Over the Castle”, the theme song of Gran Turismo:
