I am not sure if this was discussed before or not
(Don’t hesitate to close if it was)
Lets start…
As you know, most of the 2D fighting games BGMs are great. so what !!?? :rolleyes:
I want to know what BGMs you think are the best.
For me:
Now it’s your turn
“Suck A Sage” Chipp’s BGM, GGXX
"Babel Noise" Jam’s BGM
"A Simple Life" Bridget’s BGM
"Holy Orders-Be Just Or Be Dead" Ky’s BGM
Ryu’s Street Fighter 2 BGM, and his Street Fighter 3 one
the entire Street Fighter 3: Third Strike music selection. That’s the only 2d game I can think of that had more than simple MIDI ping’s, pong’s and organ music. On that soundtrack I like.
“Twilight”- Ibuki
"Jazzy NYC"- Alex & Ken
"Snowland"- Necron & Twelve
"China Vox"- Chun-Li
"Beats in My Head 2nd Mix"- Elena
"Killing Moon"- Akuma
"Continue music"-
There has been some awesome 3d fighter background music though. Especially SoulCalibur. My favorite are:
“Silk Road Ruins”- the korean dude
"Emperor’s Garden"- Xianghua
"Colliseum"- Rock
"Kaliedescope"- misc.
“Chasing Donwstream”- Yoshimitsu
"Eternal Flame"- Inferno
"The Stage of History"- misc.
“Proving Grounds”- Kilik. Plus Sophitia’s stage music.
From Tekken 4 I like:
“Airport”
“Laboratory”
all the music from sf2 ww
that stuff is too classic
For me it was and is…
Its all about Streets of Rage 1-2, Yuko Koshiro is a damned genius…
[ Streets of Rage ]
Attack The Barbarian
Up and Up
The Streets Of Rage
[ Streets of Rage 2]
Alien Power
Go Straight
Never Return Alive
Dreamer
Wave 131
if any of you have ever played it then u know whats up.
Also Kings Remixed Tekken 3 stage BGM is the hotness.
KOF OST&AST’s (except 2k1 OST)
MK2’s Dead Pool, Portal, and Kombat Tomb themes
SSF2T music
revenge of mr. x = top tier
Sadistic Eyes (Iori’s KoF '99 theme).
Zazzarius: Good Call, however the song is so quick its hard to get into, and it lacks the range of emotion compared to the other tracks.
ASTS for KOF Owned my soul.
Sega Saturns KOF '97 was just too good.
2k1 had the worst BGM, it was so monotone, 2k2 sucked as well but not as bad as 2k1, hell even 2k1s Stages looked like blurry puddles of shit.
GGXX: Judgement
SF2: guile
Captain America’s theme (MSH)
My top 5:
Guilty Gear X2 - Vortex Infinitum (Robo Ky - Korean version re-mix apparently, uncertain)
Guilty Gear X - Awe of She (Dizzy)
Capcom Vs SNK 2 - The Lord Ultimate (Ultimate Rugal’s BGM)
Super Street Fighter II - Ken’s BGM
Street Fighter Alpha 2 - Ryu’s BGM
My fave tracks would be pages long.
That’s not gonna stop me from posting it later, though.
Super Turbo-- Cammy’s theme
SFA2 Akuma
SFA3 Ryu
SF2 Ken
sfa2 - adons theme
ggx - midnight carnival
st - t. hawks theme
kof 96 - kyo’s theme (forgot the name)
kof 99 - krizalids theme
kof 99 - ikari warriors theme
