History AwesomeMusic / SeventhGeneration

** To start off, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fduv3Tbvi1w "N.M.H."]], the {{Leitmotif}} for Travis Touchdown and the game as a whole, and an absolute banger of an EarWorm. It even receives some arrangements in the sequel, including the jazzy [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-V8htEtAYI "Kill or Be Killed"]] and the thrash metal theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cW3zbF1Dm5g "NO MORE RIOT"]].

* ''VideoGame/CrashOfTheTitans'' has the catchy "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7A770sHrHo Turf's Up]]", which is quite popular among fans. As for more atmospheric music, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=551kEmzoG-o Roast in the Machine]]" is quite sinister.
** Its sequel, ''VideoGame/CrashMindOverMutant'', has an even ''catchier'' soundtrack. Tracks include [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Msx2jSG8QZM the theme music]], "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnYVZmZworY The Wastelands]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYb0Sge6RHc Big Fight #2]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMVZPPOFAHg Rhinoroller Music #2]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tkz4pdrZ6E0 Hero Titan Showdown]]".

** Anvil's [[HeavyMeta "Metal On Metal"]] isn't [[BreatherBoss a particularly hard song, it's true.]] But from the [[EpicRiff opening chord]], it becomes one of the most fun songs to play, simply because it's [[EarWorm so darn catchy]] that [[AudienceParticipationSong everyone gets into it.]]

** While it may not be extraordinary, you're gonna have a pretty damn hard time getting Cloe Walsh's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Llw4fiAGh2g Bondage Cake]] [[EarWorm out your head]].

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmkJxL3ryKI RIDE!!]] is a very upbeat and cheery for a rap song, and the chorus is so damn [[EarWorm catchy]] that you ''will'' find yourself going "Can we go ''riiide''?".

* ''VideoGame/{{Patapon}}'', despite having minimalistic and [[EarWorm incredibly catchy]] music, has some great melodies played during fever more like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pj1JVmnWJ18 Gorl's theme]] or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZpruJ_3fhI One of the boss themes]].

* The original theme song for ''VideoGame/DragonsDogma'' was "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fslNWime5lk Into Free -Dangan-]]" by B'z and was absolutely awesome. Unfortunately the style of the song (up-tempo modern rock) [[SoundtrackDissonance didn't fit with the medieval fantasy theme of the game at all]], and so the stand alone expansion Dark Arisen replaced it with a much less awesome but more thematically appropriate tune.

* The first ''{{Mercenaries}}'' game had some great dramatic music, but the sequel? The extremely catchy tune [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FlaFYbQQaY "Oh No you Didn't!"]]

* The original ''VideoGame/{{Meteos}}'' for DS was given several awards and nominations for its soundtrack; both it, ''Online'' and ''Wars'' have many great themes to launch blocks to, though most tracks by themselves lose some points, as the music is best experienced through playing the game, since launching the blocks features musical stings that compliment it. This being said, there are still plenty of songs in the game that are still nice enough to listen to on their own:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0VMxyuRW7E Both iterations]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dw8uPhJHr4c of "The Path You Travel". ]]

** [[https://youtu.be/SO2poJAaE_I Cry of the Banshee]] during the fight with the Metal Queen. Just... this.
** [[https://youtu.be/b1B_pZC8aWU Electric Eye]] from Music/JudasPriest.
** The use of [[https://youtu.be/7xzBm4nMTck Painkiller]] during the final boss. Seriously, final boss + Judas Priest = one of the most awesome boss fights in video game history.

** [[https://youtu.be/1WpzCiLIiCo Another Winter]].
** [[https://youtu.be/Gs47P1eD36U Twin Dragons]].
** [[https://youtu.be/cm6tWd6frVQ Rock Club]].
** [[https://youtu.be/zgMQRV2vpWg Matthew Patel's Bollywood]].
** [[https://youtu.be/2SeZ5tT1kJs Wilderness Sabbatical]].
** [[https://youtu.be/-MwOrPSAzuc Gideon Graves Theme]].
* ''VideoGame/SpiderManShatteredDimensions'' has [[https://youtu.be/kpoSCPZW3bM several]] [[IncrediblyLamePun AMAZING]] [[https://youtu.be/cJwlQnd3Rzs themes]].
* Regarding ''VideoGame/BlueDragon'', if God Himself decided to compose a song to be blasted during the Apocalypse, He would be hard-pressed to create one more Armageddon-heralding than [[https://youtu.be/Th255-1B2wQ The Seal Is Broken]].
* [[https://youtu.be/SDlIEhLozDg The absolutely beautiful main theme]] from the exceptionally beautiful game ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles''. Also [[spoiler:Rosie at Isara's funeral, in both English and Japanese]].

** [[https://youtu.be/I3wF0kUSpWE "Attack of the Drones"]] from ''VideoGame/GearsOfWar1''.
** [[https://youtu.be/oUXbhpF0izU "Armored Prayer"]] by Steve Jablonsky from ''Gears 2''.

** Let's just give you a sampler pack, since otherwise we'd be here all day. Here's one of the stage tracks, [[https://youtu.be/tsV9ItRSb-4 "Cashmere Cannonball"]]; Rank 3's theme, [[https://youtu.be/Hs-SxiWXS8Y "Mach 13 Elephant Explosion"]]; Rank 7's theme, [[https://youtu.be/OhnhMIJKSHs "Stop Hanging DJs"]]; and Rank 2's theme, [[https://youtu.be/9TX9o6uZnEs "Pleather For Breakfast"]]. We'll stop here or else we'll end up posting the OST.
** [[https://youtu.be/1PYMZVuse4U "The virgin child makes her wish without feeling anything"]].
** The theme of [[spoiler:the True Final Boss, Henry]], [[https://youtu.be/FISXJNCcLM0 "We Are Finally Cowboys",]] deserves special mention.
** The Rank 1 battle against [[spoiler:Jeane]], [[https://youtu.be/I1fZxIX0psU "Rocket Surgeon"]].
** The theme from the arcade shooter sequence, [[https://youtu.be/XNxD9giFC3A "Pure White Giant Tiny Glastonbury"]].
** The Sequel amps things up with some remixes from the Darkside album, and fresh, new tracks. Sample [[https://youtu.be/rTlIzfL7tUI Phillistine]], [[https://youtu.be/SuPy6dHjFXI Subuta.2]], and [[spoiler:New Destroyman]]'s theme [[https://youtu.be/u3MV5NQP2dA Kill U 2wise Over.]]
** While it may not be extraordinary, you're gonna have a pretty damn hard time getting Cloe Walsh's theme, [[https://youtu.be/Llw4fiAGh2g Bondage Cake]] [[EarWorm out your head]].
** Skelter Helter's theme, [[https://youtu.be/6hrsQU8fuBs Sling Shot]] is pretty awesome.
** [[https://youtu.be/Sk77S5KvCx8 Twilight's theme]] might just be ''the best'' boss theme in the game, minus the Jasper Batt themes listed below.
** [[https://youtu.be/-sON9SYIIqo Reaper reaper...]]
** The beautiful, downtempo [[https://youtu.be/o67Bo1lxutQ Tooth Paste]], which leads wonderfully up to [[spoiler:Travis' HeelFaceTurn]], or [[https://youtu.be/j-Agp4yO5k8 Convulsive Madness, the theme for Batt's second form]], which makes the [[ThatOneBoss fight itself]] more tolerable. And the Beatles-esque [[https://youtu.be/ZPHlJdykif8 Dose of Innocence]] is basically the perfect theme song for {{Yandere}}s ''everywhere''.
** The theme for Batt's first form [[https://youtu.be/ThhXOay6kTQ Dynamite Rocket]] is just as good. And then there's [[https://youtu.be/8YsWFMgQlxU Kill or Be Killed.]] There's something about making the NMH theme more funky, complete with sassy black {{engrish}} vocals, that's just AWESOME.
** [[https://youtu.be/XL2od1AF_Cs Heavenly Star]] will send your soul to heaven.
** [[https://youtu.be/ONH5-U0JohE Shoegazer Watched the Stars]] is an absolute gem of inventive music. By combining an ethereal techno beat to heavy guitar riffs, the song makes the already surreal fight against Captain Vladimir all the more mystical.
* [[https://youtu.be/iYNT2F7JdL0 The]] [[https://youtu.be/7mB0mQk1FKI whole]] [[https://youtu.be/vVwh3FCAsKA damn]] [[https://youtu.be/og2NshvyaNE soundtrack]] [[https://youtu.be/NNKzCNo7DSs of]] [[https://youtu.be/IQxE8JJKccI Tom]] [[https://youtu.be/cXB3miYJD-Y Clancy's]] [[https://youtu.be/tH7DH2_sVUg Endwar.]] (Note that the latter links weren't featured in the soundtrack release. A fan combined the game's stinger tracks into ''consistent suites.'' That's dedication.)
* ''VideoGame/EliteBeatAgents'' + [[https://youtu.be/MvLCnKqYWzA The Rolling Stones]] = Awesome incarnate. The way it's pulled off manages to simultaneously drive the point home for how ridiculously badass the Agents are, and why the Rolling Stones are considered to be among the best of the best in rock'n'roll music (or perhaps music in general).
** [[https://youtu.be/ThQIUGiB1G0 This is our fight! Without a doubt! Time to ignite! We're not going down! (Without a Fight!)]]

** [[VideoGame/OsuTatakaeOuendan Ready steady, can't hold me back]]. [[FinalBoss Ready steady, give me good luck]]. [[AutobotsRockOut Ready steady, never look back]]. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Let's get started]], [[https://youtu.be/wsjaQJf7ZCA Ready Steady GO!!]]

** [[https://youtu.be/8jElgtdoSqU Guitar Battle]] [[https://youtu.be/rMFkoWd3vCw vs. Lou]] is amazing as well.
** Hell, this series brings us a (sorta) original awesome piece in the form of ''Guitar Hero 5'''s [[https://youtu.be/ECQUp4DmBII special version of]] [[Music/PublicEnemy "Bring the Noise,"]] with Zakk Wylde on guitar.
* ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies'' has a bunch of cool songs including [[https://youtu.be/iC0G6WdRTZw Brainiac Maniac]] and [[https://youtu.be/yOBnj42WACE The Roof.]]

** Well, just for the sake of the ''VideoGame/GuitarHero'' and ''VideoGame/RockBand'' fans, let's start with [[https://youtu.be/zfyE8c_ddP4 Sabotage vs. Monkey Wrench]].
** [[https://youtu.be/_mRCDxI9JVw You Can't Touch Ice Ice Baby]] (You Can't Touch This vs. Ice Ice Baby), [[https://youtu.be/NHWTWdv566Y We Will Robot Rock You]] (We Will Rock You vs. Robot Rock), plus other great combos are in store.
** "[[https://youtu.be/8ZxyYtDO090 Jukebox Hero vs. DJ Hero]]" - definitely the one song that should get players in the right mindset when they play the game.
** "[[https://youtu.be/E_3ledCtpV4 Groundhog (Beat Juggle)]]" is one of the more popular tracks in the lineup. This is either because it's an awesome mix of an awesome track, or because it repeatedly taunts the player in a British accent. ''"This is no time to kotch!"''

** "[[https://youtu.be/X2XQrnI94DU As I'm starin' thought the Red Mist/Red Mist]]".
** [[https://youtu.be/by9fgbvqyaE WOLFGANG'S FIFTH]].
** [[Music/PublicEnemy "Bring the Noise"]] is back again; these [[https://youtu.be/vMdJTB51Kz0 two]] [[https://youtu.be/E555WcgHs4k mixes]] in ''DJ Hero'' simply jack the awesomeness UpToEleven ([[Film/ThisIsSpinalTap Spinal Tap]] pun intended).
** [[https://youtu.be/7Gc8TsBYvNQ Fix Up Look Sharp vs Genesis]] is one too, especially in [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome the game's intro video.]]
** "Just Dance" by Music/LadyGaga vs. "Ghosts N Stuff" by Music/Deadmau5. [[https://youtu.be/K3fQa0ohDaw Listen and be amazed.]]
** Let's just say Activision's ad agency knew what they were doing when they put [[https://youtu.be/l1uUPnaQuZE this one]] in the commercials.

** The game deserves mention for making Boston's already-awesome "[[https://youtu.be/0qfFi7RBuQo Foreplay/Long Time]]" even more awesome. First, after the instrumental Foreplay section finishes and the band goes quiet, the stage goes dark, then lights up the members of your band, one by one, before the band comes in again. Then, at the end, rather than the fade-out from the original song, you get to experience the true awesomeness of the full ending, capped off with a 23-second-long Big Rock Ending that finishes one of the most epic songs in the game.

** Remember [[Music/TheUltimateShowdownOfUlitmateDestiny The Ultimate Showdown]], [[https://youtu.be/EoDv30B02RY it just got an upgrade]].

** Taking into account how many musical references were through the game, it would be a sacrilege if Motoi Sakuraba couldn't produce a jewel like [[https://youtu.be/dVDTqnUQNa4 that song]].
** "Scrap and Build Ourselves", the final boss music. The piece is a remix of Chopin's Revolutionary Etude. Listen to it in high quality [[https://youtu.be/S_fq3uSWHJg here]].

** All those [[PsychoStrings creepy strings]] all over the place? The mournful/disturbing [[https://youtu.be/d0nnYVZ1L6Q main theme]] is brilliant, Cohen's piano scherzo is magnificent, but for sheer bombastic awesome, you can't beat "[[https://youtu.be/-zQn2vEe_BA Welcome to Rapture]]". Some people on Website/{{Youtube}} [[https://youtu.be/ofjMh0IXIGY seem]] [[https://youtu.be/0ZOwEisUc5A to like this soundtrack]], also. Then there's all that wonderful SoundtrackDissonance...
** ''VideoGame/{{BioShock|1}}''[='=]s soundtrack consists of many old 1940's/50's songs, including [[https://youtu.be/MsvZuNuKPac "If I Didn't Care"]] by the Inkspots and [[https://youtu.be/2AkLE4X-bbU "How Much Is That Doggy In The Window"]], mostly playing in the background on scratchy records as you crawl about in the darkness being attacked by psychotic mutants. The SoundtrackDissonance escalates further when [[spoiler:Sander Cohen unleashes a horde of splicers on you while Tchaikovsky's [[https://youtu.be/26YEuktTNCw "Waltz of the Flowers"]] plays in the background.]]

%%** [[https://youtu.be/WyMEjZWARQU Agency radio.]]

** The game is exceptional for having original tracks produced for the game by licensed artists (with the backing tracks made by the developer's composer. [[http://platinumgames.com/2009/02/20/the-madworld-soundtrack/ More here]]), the combination of which leads to some of the best hip-hop tunes in a videogame. You gotta ''[[https://youtu.be/Eu9WfqJGoPc "Get It Up"]]''! There are lots of people who deeply hate Hip-Hop and yet can't stop themselves to hum the songs. Yes, they're ''that'' good.
** While most final boss themes go for {{Ominous Pipe Organ}}s, equally OminousLatinChanting, and general epic scale ([[MundaneMadeAwesome with varying levels of success]]), ''[=MadWorld=]'' has [[https://youtu.be/Vc-pQsoTL9c ''Look Pimpin!'']], a smooth, upbeat boast song sung from the boss's perspective. Once the boss TurnsRed (and yet... ''[[DeliberatelyMonochrome stays black]]'') it switches to [[https://youtu.be/kVC9jFQ6T20 So Cold]]. Still awesome.
** [[https://youtu.be/WmkJxL3ryKI RIDE!!]] is a very upbeat and cheery for a rap song, and the chorus is so damn [[EarWorm catchy]] that you ''will'' find yourself going "Can we go ''riiide''?".
* ''VideoGame/MirrorsEdge'' not only takes place in a timeframe and makes use of visuals similar to ''Anime/GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex'', it also features an equally amazing soundtrack that transports similar moods, while still being distinctly unique. Try the main theme (by Lisa Miskovsky). If you don't get chills, you're a robot! View it here: [[https://youtu.be/2N1TJP1cxmo Still Alive]].

** Fans generally agree that the [[https://youtu.be/wE6niwOOUTE Ultra Heaven stage music]] is the crown jewel of the game.
** [[https://youtu.be/cZb1iS1K5vk Smooth Sherbert]], [[https://youtu.be/N-aShpkZj00 Cobalt Caverns]], and [[https://youtu.be/mI0drkPjyrM Pirates Ocean]] are also standout tracks. The former is by Hideki Naganuma, mentioned above for his Jet Set Radio and Sonic Rush soundtracks. ''And it shows''.

*** One interesting thing to note that usually final boss or final forms of a boss in BulletHell shooters usually have dramatic choral music. It's completely [[https://youtu.be/10I0Xf0lp74 inverted in this game]].

*** ''Daifukkatsu Black Label'' takes the final boss themes and makes them... different. Taisabachi (aka [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast "The Supreme Weapon of Extreme Hellish Annihilation: Golden Disaster"]]) gets [[https://youtu.be/imjgHfYEbws Desperado]], while Hibachi gets the utterly chaotic [[https://youtu.be/s3HE8XZ8WKY Mercilessness]].
*** And then Hibachi's music from Daioujou got turned UpToEleven in ''VideoGame/{{Ketsui}}'' (whose soundtrack was composed by the same guy) as Evacaneer DOOM's music: [[https://youtu.be/GNK7j-j_c68 No Remorse]].

*** DFK ver. 1.5 opens up with [[https://youtu.be/c61roXoVFi0 2008 AD, Tokyo]].
*** From ''Daifukkatsu Black Label'', [[https://youtu.be/Pgho16DJlKU Flotage]], the music for Stage 3. [[https://youtu.be/0_V_1e2p-Dk Here's]] a slightly different version for if you unlock the BonusBoss.
*** Jake Kaufman, known for his video game remixes as well as some soundtracks like that of ''{{VideoGame/Contra}} 4'', worked on the soundtrack for ''Daifukkatsu Black Label''[='=]s Arrange mode (aka [[CrossOver Ketsu]][[FanNickname pachi]]). You know you're in for awesomeness when you start the game with [[https://youtu.be/VfFfDiNeTgI this]] remix of ''VideoGame/{{Ketsui}}''[='=]s stage 1 music.
* [[https://youtu.be/aLV8WN7LfBs The theme song]] to ''VisualNovel/TimeHollow'' is one of the few redeeming songs in a mediocre soundtrack, but really powerful.

** [[https://youtu.be/g6nc77yI3qA Banson's Aria.]] Lyrics in a DS game are rare (especially this one, in which all of the characters [[SpeakingSimlish speak Simlish]]), and this song not only fits the [[FlamboyantGay boss]] well, but it just sounds really good on the DS' speakers. Helps that the guy can sing, too, [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign even if it is all nonsense]].
** [[https://youtu.be/vJzpLAOXMfY Go, Go, Goldren Robo Q!]] too. Two words: [[AutobotsRockOut TEA TIME]].
** [[spoiler:Cole]] himself has a rather awesome version of this with [[https://youtu.be/0c6uPiPrRVs Heavy Metal]], the final boss theme.
* Mark Griskey's soundtrack for ''VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed'' is especially great because it incorporates a balanced mix of original elements, such as [[https://youtu.be/AleeJmpPH68 General Kota's Theme]] and homages to John Williams' themes from the movies, which pop up to great effect in songs like "[[https://youtu.be/HFo6J6kPwMo PROXY and the Skyhook]]". There's also the awe-inspiring [[https://youtu.be/qcRlkTWIQNc menu theme]].
* ''Disaster: Day of Crisis''[='=] [[https://youtu.be/FWSwAKVS-IA main theme]] is indeed pretty awesome, complete with OminousLatinChanting and such.
* ''VideoGame/StarOceanTheLastHope'' has a fairly awesome soundtrack, but the [[https://youtu.be/JqVfZyLSrpY battle music in the final dungeon]] is especially good for getting the blood pumping.
* The [[https://youtu.be/gHOQJV0qdWY NXE intro theme]] is pretty frakkin' awesome, even if it is really short.
* ''Universe At War: Earth Assault''. Another Klepacki production, it features such gems as [[https://youtu.be/hBz62nZVMJw Damage King]], [[https://youtu.be/X0ZGBXCk2HQ Mechanical Brain]], [[https://youtu.be/X_VfhU2Z8cQ Bass Case]], [[https://youtu.be/8O7_x64cIg0 Roots]], [[https://youtu.be/XJvCl9t1e6M Display of Power]], and the GOD of Awesome Music, [[https://youtu.be/OI_Fka3v8u8 Divine Intervention]].
* ''VideoGame/AdventRising'' had [[https://youtu.be/EQ_hgmGEhsw "Bounty Hunter" a.k.a. "Koroem"]], the most epic SpaceOpera theme ever complete with OminousLatinChanting (grab the [=MP3=] from the [[http://www.adventtrilogy.com/images/music/Koroem.mp3 official site]]), and [[https://youtu.be/IYYXg1X4Kvk "Stolen Transport"]] (weird name, but your life will NOT be complete without listening to it at least once). Even Gamespot, which gave it a 6.3, said that the musical score was one of the greatest ever put into a video game.

** The fan made video [[https://youtu.be/pC_aGQyFETU Ignis Solus]] is amusing by itself, but the music makes it really work. The high quality [=MP3=] version of that tune is even better if you can buy/find it.
** [[https://youtu.be/bQVSW9KlIhc The Art of War]], from "Meet the Soldier", is the RuleofThree applied to Awesome.
** The [[https://youtu.be/dRDmirJATKs main theme]] is catchy, too.
** And with ''Meet the Spy'' we have been introduced to [[https://youtu.be/2EvcItjITGk Right Behind You,]] an absolutely chilling piece of music which perfectly underscores the Spy's mysterious and sinister nature.
** And with a recent update, the action packed, 60's bank-robbery film-esque song, [[https://youtu.be/fFsnmHZ8msM "Intruder Alert"]] definitely fits into this trope.
** [[https://youtu.be/Rkea7N-ByfM "More Gun"]] seems to continue the trend of the soundtrack topping itself with each addition.
** [[https://youtu.be/gLjs-63 Feak Rocket Jump Electro]].
* You think the repetitive "music" for ''VideoGame/SpaceInvaders'' can't be awesome in any sense? ''Space Invaders Get Even'' took it and made it epic for the Stage 1 theme, "The Battle Begins". Here's a [[https://youtu.be/ruWb_yoEtgo gameplay video]] with the song in action, since the soundtrack itself isn't uploaded to [=YouTube=] yet.
** Try the ''Space Invaders Extreme'' Stage 1 music, [[https://youtu.be/icYDrCQdc70 Invade You]]. Also the Stage 5-B music, "Executor".
** From ''Extreme 2'', the music in normal 5-D, a high-energy J-core song. What makes that over the top is [[https://youtu.be/Yr3CFQyq9p0 the sound effects for the stage]], some of them voiced by a typical J-pop shrill: "[[{{Engrish}} Ret's Pray]]" for the spawn sound, for example. Extreme Stage 5-C in the same game goes the extra mile and changes the firing sounds to girly {{kiai}}.
* ''VideoGame/DeathSmiles'' has [[https://youtu.be/edVQqgDlM-o a few good ones]] too.
* ''VideoGame/TheConduit'' has an [[https://youtu.be/2HVSD64ILdE awesome menu theme]].
* ''VideoGame/OverlordII'' has a pretty neat soundtrack, with the [[https://youtu.be/k8VNIk2aA9w Main Title]] song being an epically villainous {{Leitmotif}} accompanied by the Minion's singing. The soundtrack gets particularly great when the Overlord is about to engage in a big battle with [[https://youtu.be/R3gEeGuc2J8 Overlord Combat 2]] or in a destructive SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome with [[https://youtu.be/DQN8Yh9Ocyg Overlord Wrath]].

* ''VideoGame/MuramasaTheDemonBlade'' has a beautiful soundtrack. Take, for example, [[https://youtu.be/MYIpQ6S5ZpM this track,]] or the [[https://youtu.be/0Yfkiruh-tg Battle Theme of The Road to Heaven]]
* ''[[VideoGame/BanjoKazooie Banjo Kazooie: Nuts 'N Bolts]]'' features an awesome soundtrack. Take all the music from the previous ''Banjo-Kazooie'' titles, along with [[VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay other]] [[VideoGame/BattleToads Rare]] [[VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry franchises]], throw it together and orchestrate the whole thing, and you've got a game that's virtually orgasmic with sheer nostalgia and beautiful arrangement skill. [[https://youtu.be/zVyKEnN1Ar0 Listen to the main theme.]]

** The standout piece is [[https://youtu.be/vFeBVoEeIwM "Nate's Theme,"]] which plays in the main menu screens for both the original and the sequel (referred to in the latter as [[https://youtu.be/nkPF5UiDi4g "Nate's Theme 2.0"]]). Oddly enough, there is an actual [[https://youtu.be/kzT41pEO7co "Uncharted Theme"]] on the soundtracks, but it's not as cool.
** [[https://youtu.be/P-VGTnSTpCM Badlands]] really makes you feel the majesty and expanse of the desert.
** [[https://youtu.be/uhwB43-UCaQ Reunion]] is quite a moving piece that plays [[spoiler: during Shaefer's death.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Wet}}'' has what could easily be called an Awesome ''Soundtrack''. The developers really outdid themselves looking for, and in some cases, composing music for this game. There is not a single song that does not fit the places they use it. You really owe it to yourself to check this game out if for nothing other than the music. Including: [[https://youtu.be/IT8ToRPc5N8 "She's lost control..",]] [[https://youtu.be/UEnw6MmjYS4 "Switchblade kiss comes close",]] and [[https://youtu.be/0t32Z8rMJVw "Insane"]]. These are only a few songs of the WET soundtrack.

** [[https://youtu.be/ZmQm_PySHCk There's also this theme.]] What about a [[https://youtu.be/oQ2QgcRrWlc cover]] of a pretty famous song? Or [[https://youtu.be/Zysr4weluSM Bayonetta's own theme?]] Then there's the [[https://youtu.be/xKWgJNm9Mg0 opening playable sequence.]] Hell, just listen to the entire soundtrack!
** [[https://youtu.be/QV3wFRy23cY The final boss theme]] is extremely epic and perfectly fits [[God who you are battling]].
%%** If [[https://youtu.be/t_xGVDBY42s this]] doesn't get you hyped, what will?

* Each Psychopath from ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' has their own theme song - and in general each one is more than badass enough to be worthy of being themes of {{Crazy Awesome}}s. It's be easier to list which pieces ''aren't'' SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic, but perhaps instead we'll just direct you to [[https://youtu.be/eETNjXZRL5o Carlito's]], [[https://youtu.be/5irITCl6LZU Isabela's]], [[https://youtu.be/5irITCl6LZU Paul's]], [[https://youtu.be/4iPK9m5ihvU Sean's]], [[https://youtu.be/N2gl-EVBkNo Cliff's]], and if it's your cup of tea [[https://youtu.be/c7FJjtAuAIU the Convicts']] themes for now. The ending theme, [[https://youtu.be/EuyY1gTVTBc Justified by Drea]], is also pretty awesome. The sequel's got some cool themes too, [[https://youtu.be/uBn9WLXyDw0 for an Expy of Larry, Antoine's theme is fairly good]].

** [[https://youtu.be/wbyYcJcWgCY A Dream of Armageddon]] is amazingly epic and totally fits the game theme.
** [[https://youtu.be/lFH_sLohbRQ Alex's Theme]] is a haunting and beautiful orchestral piece.
** And [[https://youtu.be/pCIM9wVGrno Men Like Gods]] is also amazingly haunting, and will make the player's hair to stand on end despite playing an amazing two-legged engine of destruction.

* The Wii's Weather Channel's [[https://youtu.be/RGDzA7MODEI evening and night theme]] is a wonder for dissolving stress, it actually becomes an addiction. [[https://youtu.be/GLDhvJ0fmAw The world map at night]] also has a sort of quiet ambiance about it, fitting for looking down to the Earth from space.
* ''VideoGame/{{Raiden}} IV'', in addition to awesome original tunes like [[https://youtu.be/SPqYSfrR5p0 A Stormy Front]] and [[https://youtu.be/UrT8VzsOV3w Advantageous Development]], features arranged versions of several tunes from previous games, such as [[https://youtu.be/WD8Lh8fUsPs Flap Towards the Hope (Raiden II Stage 7)]] [[https://youtu.be/XNhMGao3UJs Tragedy Flame (Raiden II Stage 2)]], [[https://youtu.be/qTUmz6Asd0Q Repeated Tragedy (Raiden II Stage 1)]], [[https://youtu.be/FB2zZ4kjl-M All or Nothing (Raiden II Stage 3)]], and [[https://youtu.be/hnRD4QJxhSE Go to Blazes! {Raiden I boss}]] .
* The better portion of the ''VideoGame/KnightsInTheNightmare'' soundtrack by Shigeki Hayashi is quite awesome as well. There's [[https://youtu.be/eKalWN2ElpA Clash with the Imperial Princess Arlie]], [[https://youtu.be/5aZXBNeFTAY Clash with the Dark King Zolgonark]], [[https://youtu.be/rxr-nG88MKE Clash with the Black Knight Ganzer]], and [[https://youtu.be/XiGEgKOUHJc Clash with Cursed Pische]].
* ''VideoGame/TheLastRemnant'' gives us [[https://youtu.be/mtohIwOOKtA "Reversal!"]] If that doesn't get you in the mood for pulling off a moment of awesome, nothing does.

** [[https://youtu.be/QinOrlu1Xpw "Bu bu poruche"]], the Yellow Locos' theme, will just cheer you right up.
** [[https://youtu.be/r-VkHstW_5A "Panguraratta"]], the Red Locos' theme, brings some swingin' island flavor.
** [[https://youtu.be/bd8v6tGNKMY "Bucho Mio"]], Green Locos' theme, has a snappy, almost J-pop-y flavor to it.
** [[https://youtu.be/GipVW6DmTlk "Zappudo Geron"]], the Black Locos' theme, is ''ridiculously'' infectious. And funky fresh!
** And proving that the villains ''always'' get the best song, ladies and gentlemen, [[https://youtu.be/8DRf4RN9zJE "Kuttetekaruna."]] Now ''that's'' what a villain song should sound like!
** To add further proof, [[https://youtu.be/xzf1735-q1M "Merure Merure"]] is the song that plays in the last level of both games and it's usually associated with Bon Mucho, the BigBad. The fact that it is ''genuinely unsettling'' and it's the only song that the Locorocos seem to be afraid to sing makes for a really kickass WombLevel!
** And of course there's a very catchy theme song of "[[https://youtu.be/DefMNqBKpdw Loco Roco - Midnight Carnival]]".
* From ''VideoGame/FatalFrame 4'' comes [[https://youtu.be/a3Av3xJ5N30 Noise]] and [[https://youtu.be/RYquJBJdceQ ZERO no Chouritsu (Just Call My Name)]].
* Being a {{Retraux}} RhythmGame, the ''VideoGame/BitTrip'' series naturally has to have fittingly awesome music. The first level theme for ''Beat'', "[[http://www.commandervideo.com/00DESCENT11.mp3 Transition]]", is quite catchy. Additionally, each game in the series so far features menu and credits music from guest chiptune artists. "[[http://www.8bitpeoples.com/mp3/get/374/8bp059-06-bit_shifter-the_information_chase.mp3 The Information Chase]]" by [[http://bit.shifter.net/ Bit Shifter]], in particular, is very fitting for a credits sequence, especially that of the aforementioned ''VideoGame/BitTrip Beat''. Also, here is a [[https://youtu.be/d_xn43AMhcE PERFECT run]] of one of the easier levels.

** "[[https://youtu.be/8-l_kbZbXRQ Children of the Elder God]]" by the Old Gods of Asgard, FakeBand persona of Music/PoetsOfTheFall. It plays during the single most awesome moment in the game. The entire set piece is incredible. Just listen to it! Your partner even comments on how awesome everything was after it's done.
** "[[https://youtu.be/GLxb7m0j5Jg The Poet and the Muse]]" is an equally amazing song that plays at the end of Episode 4 where everything starts to come together, and the song's lyrics explain the backstory and what Alan must do next.
** "[[https://youtu.be/b6RKKCQt82Y Balance Slays The Demon]]" from ''[[VideoGame/AlanWakesAmericanNightmare American Nightmare]]'' is amazing.
* [[https://youtu.be/PbeFRAy4Q4A "Nanashi no Theme"]] from ''VideoGame/NanashiNoGame''. You're never going to hear a more melancholy and, after experiencing the moments it's linked to, ''terrifying'' chip tune in your life. The increasingly warped version that plays as you progress is even ''worse''.
* The ''Taiko no Tatsujin'' series, being a drumming game with cute graphics, actually had some great music. Who knows [[https://youtu.be/Nb7eB8aI9zY a song about a pair of talking drumsticks]] could be this awesome.
* Those badass or suicidal enough to try ''{{VideoGame/Contra}} 4'' on Hard mode get treated to a [[https://youtu.be/ZxFXrYn20Yo rockin' remix of the origina l Contra's Stage 1 music]] on the first stage. [[https://youtu.be/mgXKeuoJfi4 Harbor]] is another cool track from this.]]

** [[https://youtu.be/Ye-8pa7Kbn8 Gargoyle's Perch]], the song that likely drove Jin to evil.
** Who doesn't want to hear some YODELING [[https://youtu.be/fgDFs88Zgro in Meadow Hill]]??

** ''DJ MAX Portable 2'' has [[https://youtu.be/-FnUc1j5MoQ Your Own Miracle]], the opening theme and BonusBoss.
** [[https://youtu.be/TckpRsT4unE Son of Sun]], the ThatOneBoss of ''DJ MAX Technika'' and ''Black Square'' 's BonusBoss.
** [[https://youtu.be/9y15W-clDcY Ready Now]] from ''DJMAX Portable Black Square'', a eurodance song with some moderate IntercourseWithYou overtones.
** ''DJMAX Portable 3'' brings us [[https://youtu.be/SIT7oIGxIqM "Hanz Up!"]] by Mr. Funky, used as an ImageSong of sorts for ''Portable 3''.

** Worth mentioning are the tracks: "Tumbler", "Burning Man", "Are You Coming Home, Love MOM", "Regurgitation Pumping Station", [[https://youtu.be/d2zSy9S5osQ "Best of Times"]], and [[https://youtu.be/Ku4eLhgsEE0 "Red Carpet Extend-o-matic"]].

** The [[https://youtu.be/I7NZ4oR4978 main theme]] is real sweet.

** [[https://youtu.be/QGBq_mtaPbM Dark Skies]] is a downright awesome piece from beginning to end.

* The first ''{{Mercenaries}}'' game had some great dramatic music, but the sequel? The extremely catchy tune [[https://youtu.be/6FlaFYbQQaY "Oh No you Didn't!"]]

** [[https://youtu.be/RAeFgmMKju0 Vertical Upshift]] is like the official soundtrack for "You are kicking ass!".
** [[https://youtu.be/gynlK50dl3I All For One]], which also serves as the ThemeMusicPowerUp for certain boss fights, '''instantly''' makes your fight a hundred times more epic.
** [[https://youtu.be/lrZap23zdWQ Dead End]], Musha Gundam's befittingly awesome theme.
** [[https://youtu.be/zY_-wa2PrTg Knight Gundam's Theme]] is pretty damn good.
* Speaking of ''Gundam'' games, ''[[VideoGame/GundamVsSeries Gundam Extreme Vs]]'' not only has lots of incredible music from the various series, but also the [[FinalBoss EXTREME Gundam's]] three themes: [[https://youtu.be/3rQTZLPA3ZY Divine Act -The Extreme-]], [[https://youtu.be/Fybcd3kC-Zw Divine Act -The Extreme- Revised]], and [[https://youtu.be/JQiXKqIAW4A The End of Authority]].
%%* ''[[https://youtu.be/x2JNZG2XqWg JakAndDaxter]]: The Lost Frontier'' doesn't disappoint either.
* ''VideoGame/{{Killzone}} 2'', with such pure win as [[https://youtu.be/xPPXnU4vR2k Helghan Forever]], and the music that plays during the [[https://youtu.be/2AqTEOpyDm8 intro]] (with extra [[LargeHam ham]]). The theme song for ''Killzone 3'' is also quite great in a different sense than the KZ2 one. It conveys both the desperation of the main characters, their will to keep fighting aswell, as sounding somewhat prophetic towards what awaits the people of Helghan in the end.
* ''VideoGame/{{Lair}}'' may not be the best game, or even good to some, but composer [[Music/JohnDebney John Debney]] made sure the music was at the highest quality. Just take a look at the first prologue [[https://youtu.be/RIgYwzNle8o&t=1m35s here.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Patapon}}'', despite having minimalistic and [[EarWorm incredibly catchy]] music, has some great melodies played during fever more like [[https://youtu.be/Pj1JVmnWJ18 Gorl's theme]] or [[https://youtu.be/VZpruJ_3fhI One of the boss themes]].

* ''VideoGame/ArcRiseFantasia'' has an excellent soundtrack. Two especially noteworhty pieces are the boss theme [[https://youtu.be/pBwYmG7bU2U "Unexpected Fight"]] and [[https://youtu.be/xlBvG6CIiyc "Now is the Time of Conclusion"]] (which may or may not be a boss theme).
* ''VideoGame/DarkVoid''. [[SoOkayItsAverage Middling game]], Bear [=McCreary=] [[https://youtu.be/sVu5tbkf6SA soundtrack]].
* ''SplitSecond'''s [[https://youtu.be/IoGBIjfCZk0 Elite Race]] theme. It's a piece that gets you pumped to race the best of the best, especially when the main riff kicks in.
* The music of [[https://youtu.be/uIvFy8l9AHw debut trailer]] for ''VideoGame/ShadowsOfTheDamned'' is pure awesome. Not surprising coming from Music/AkiraYamaoka.
* The underrated [=PS3=] gem ''VideoGame/FolkLore'' is filled with great pieces such as [[https://youtu.be/Pz7sRy_qrKU "The Fairy Waltz"]], [[https://youtu.be/0slP2Eo0FmY "Where the Soul Goes"]] and the ending theme [[https://youtu.be/kLgdO5n1z0U "Nephilim"]] to name a few.

* ''VideoGame/EnslavedOdysseyToTheWest'' deserves recognition for Nitin Sawhney's fantastic works of art. Notably: [[https://youtu.be/Dhcj827385w Cloud Surfing]], [[https://youtu.be/X6nf7sQN-NY The Hero's Journey]], [[https://youtu.be/eKQyuPqlLIY Rhino Chase]], and [[https://youtu.be/G97rp6T5ztY Monkey Sunset]].
* ''Warriors Orochi'' boasts a whole slew of great tracks, most borrowed from previous Dynasty/Samurai Warriors games, but the high-energy anthem [[https://youtu.be/ukw9F8nOy5A Alliance 1]] takes the cake.
* ''Warriors Orochi 3'' introduces a highly anticipated newcomer by breaking out a [[https://youtu.be/M5m3EKZLeQg wicked, high-energy remix]] of [[https://youtu.be/zP_D_YKnwi0 the original music from Ninja Gaiden's Act 4-2.]]
* Even though it's not advisable to [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors pursue]] [[MemeticBadass Lu Bu,]] his arrival is always a good time to [[https://youtu.be/YfEMbK6qnvQ ROCK THE]] [[https://youtu.be/b4KzheChan0 &#*! OUT!!]]

** [[https://youtu.be/YWlCK11qEBg Ashes of Dreams / New]]. [[https://youtu.be/QWLEXhh4Doc Grandma]], and [[https://youtu.be/774LdRLqWsM Songs of the Ancients / Fate]].
** [[https://youtu.be/MGtnBnmJ8MA Shadowlord]] is AMAZING.
** [[https://youtu.be/KsQJPNOEAdg Hills of Radiant Wind.]]
** [[https://youtu.be/AiysEY4eN28 Escape]] is beautiful and full of energy, being one of many versions that are considered to be Kainé's themes, like [[https://youtu.be/fu2NC88TYjI Salvation]] and another simply called [[https://youtu.be/KWhEoUI_6wI Kaine/Duet Version]].
** The soundtrack was so well received that they released more, with remixes and new versions of beloved songs, [[https://youtu.be/3hax_IRJWf4 such as an 8-bit version of several songs]] that are very popular and a gorgeous a capella of the song [[https://youtu.be/-kZdwPfeamw The Wretched Automatons]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Drakengard 3}}'' is scored by the same people responsible for ''VideoGame/NieR'', and the game's soundtrack is a feast for the ears, with memorable pieces like the main theme [[https://youtu.be/nFyK-ajIAWU Black Song]], [[https://youtu.be/pQrQEmClpWc This Silence is Mine]] (used in the TGS trailer), and [[https://youtu.be/1Itc4-Gk9IU Fallen God]], featuring Emi Evans once again.
* The music of ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum'' is very low key; however, it fits the mood of the game ''perfectly'' and... [[https://youtu.be/2AbIb2QyJI4 well,]] [[https://youtu.be/vXMHX9uDRNs just]] [[https://youtu.be/KoHi0r4xMGM take]] [[https://youtu.be/wee7IFRXbXU a]] [[https://youtu.be/n7lc7kqWwhA listen]] [[https://youtu.be/CmYW_U1baXE here!]]

** [[https://youtu.be/6hjyuQFhAsI Carmeaty Burana]], the FinalBoss theme, in particular.
** [[https://youtu.be/jBA6kQl_GOk Battle of Lil' Slugger]].
** [[https://youtu.be/LE_Lrs8LomE Dr. Fetus's Castle]].

** You cannot deny that [[https://youtu.be/w4I23yxiJq4 the theme music]] is the best thing to happen to mankind.
** Or perhaps [[https://youtu.be/JQ1u1m_3KbM Fable II's main theme.]]
** Then there's [[https://youtu.be/0STS6xDQW7I Fable III]].
* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCityStories'' with [[https://youtu.be/mm8q2mIRpeg Phil Collins singing a classic.]]
* For a game about killing opponents in the most brutal and imaginative ways possible, with characters that swear like sailors and don't even take the own story they're in seriously, ''VideoGame/{{Bulletstorm}}'' has an excellent [[https://youtu.be/gqfB9OcKC_w main theme]].

** The game had an unusually awesome song from nowhere in [[https://youtu.be/S4ywyZHhunA this]]. It comes at one of the most epic parts of the game as well, sealed inside of an exploding engine room on your way to stop a stealth bomber from taking off.
** For a series that is typically very reserved in the grandeur of its music, some of the final boss music decides to kick the epic up through the roof, using tracks done by a full orchestra, no less. First up is [[https://youtu.be/3OLax-NenP8 Winds of Madness]] which is during the battle with Wesker before his evil plane of doom takes off. It starts off subdued and ambient, like most songs from the game. Then out of nowhere the orchestra kicks in and doesn't let up on the intensity until the end. And then almost right after, we get [[https://youtu.be/vm1-dkBBq1Q Deep Ambition]], the music of the final battle. In a volcano. It is also suitably epic (if not a bit reminiscent of the Jaws Theme at certain points).
* The best part of ''Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles'' was the music. The game retold ''RE2'' and ''Code Veronica'', two games with a good deal of epic music in their own right. Not only were many of those tracks reproduced for this game, but many of them done so with full orchestra. Of particular note are any iteration of the Theme of G, and both of the [[https://youtu.be/_deQF4S5Uw4 Alexia]] [[https://youtu.be/jlAcSBj_XH8 battle themes.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Crysis}} 2'' has quite a lot of awesome tracks, but two that really stand out are the unnamed [[https://youtu.be/8Zp9lKpMkLI menu theme]] and [[https://youtu.be/q9vytkmZ9K8 Burning Night]]. Chills.
* ''Videogame/AloneInTheDark2008'', despite being notoriously buggy with controls up the arse, has downright [[https://youtu.be/nh2kSs89Xxw outstanding music]] composed by Olivier Deriviere, who has also composed for [[VideoGame/{{Obscure}} Obscure II]].

** For example: [[https://youtu.be/ElSUKQOF3d4 Me and My Little War]] almost sounds like a relaxing version of J-E-N-O-V-A from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII''.
** [[https://youtu.be/Yjk-sFY0zYg The Search.]]
** Even the [[https://youtu.be/cKyn12_qCjs Title Screen]] is pretty catchy.
* An indendant game on X Box Live called [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin I Made A Game With Zombies In It]] features [[https://youtu.be/WsmjdGjWeB0 this as the main theme.]] It plays during the entire play through of the game, and the game ends when the theme reaches its epic conclusion. Many players consider just the song itself worth the experience to play it, never mind that visual effects.
* ''Anime/TheSkyCrawlers''. [[https://youtu.be/EIEreXQNZsM#t=2m4s Here is an excerpt]].
* The [[https://youtu.be/JSELOUysNQo end credits theme]] of ''VideoGame/TransformersWarForCybertron''. [[https://youtu.be/MFHQcKxFd7E It also has a longer version]].
* The ''trailer'' for ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' brings us "[[https://youtu.be/GcFB8Rmy-Sc Icarus]]".
* ''VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown'' score, composed by Michael [=McCann=] (who also composed for ''DEHR''), has a number of memorable tracks. Chief among them is the incredibly epic "[[https://youtu.be/PJ1rL8Ts7Ro Deployment]]", which plays before every mission while you select your soldiers and their gear. New players often report being stuck at that screen a disproportionate amount of time before their very first mission--and not because they have trouble picking units.
* [[https://youtu.be/fLUJJJQgS6Q Ready Aurora]], the menu theme of ''VideoGame/{{HAWX}}''.
* The ''VideoGame/DrawnToLife'' series' vocal songs. Though there are only three of them. [[https://youtu.be/7ZexuAuzt2Y The End]] [[https://youtu.be/HxKyzy2M8bo Light of My Life]] and [[https://youtu.be/YF89OSVPdt0 Real Life]] do sound quite awesome and have quite an effect on the emotional moments that they play during in the games.
* Say what you will about Full Auto 2: Battlelines, but the music is damned awesome irregardless of opinion of the game in question, with some of the best themes such as [[https://youtu.be/f1OZjZTrufw Messij Lost]], [[https://youtu.be/7WnKo16Iun0 Burning World]], [[https://youtu.be/ZGITCk99MEY Warlord]], and [[https://youtu.be/RUFmEUfKOk4 Diesel and Destruction]].
* Pretty much the entire soundtrack from ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}}'' is excellent, with a broad mix on genres and several different composers, it's music perfectly suiting the epic scale of the game. Just some of the best include [[https://youtu.be/V4vCEHpv6Hg You Will Know Our Names]], [[https://youtu.be/JS7XVMNNZI8 One Who Gets in Our Way]], [[https://youtu.be/nCclUgQk1Lk Mechanical Rhythm]], [[https://youtu.be/HIrjgE2-C-s Tragic Decision]], and [[https://youtu.be/Ug6B7c_Xut8 The God-Slaying Sword]], which are all battle themes at various parts of the game; [[https://youtu.be/HAW4xlbyu28 Engage the Enemy]], which makes a perfect accompaniment to some of the more tragic cut-scenes; and [[https://youtu.be/xweRl4LZlmo Guar Plains]], which plays on the expansive Bionis' Leg. To say nothing of [[https://youtu.be/dWfyxPVdH50 Satorl, the Shimmering Marsh]], which is half the reason nobody goes through the Satorl Marsh during the day if they can help it.
* And following up to the ''VideoGame/ArcanaHeart'' series, the third game adds up with the [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Lust SIN]]-esque [[https://youtu.be/5MeG9c2FeZg White Valkyria]], probably the theme of the new heroine Weiss. The rest of the soundtrack are also kickass.
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic abounds in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV''. Take [[https://youtu.be/jqE8M2ZnFL8 the main game's theme]], [[https://youtu.be/Vwk_DKY0pnI The Lost and Damned main theme]] and [[https://youtu.be/CTYEXej9Kv0 The Ballad of Gay Tony's main theme]].
* Dead Space has a knack for remixing ''nursery rhymes'' into disturbing music. Examples are [[https://youtu.be/jRXQsQKGqIU Twinkle Twinkle]] and [[https://youtu.be/16MdwEb_EGs Ring Around The Rosie.]]

** You undertake a mission to seize a penthouse crib from the Syndicate. The Boss opts to do so by parachuting into the penthouse's pool and killing everything that moves... while [[https://youtu.be/YOshf_FeG6c "Power"]] by Music/KanyeWest plays in the background.
** The Awesome is matched by the background music for the finale, wherein the Boss has to choose to either track down the BigBad or [[ArmiesAreEvil stop the army]], and [[https://youtu.be/dLNCX84-kfA "Holding Out for a Hero"]] by Bonnie Tyler starts playing.
** Of course, with a game as crazy as ''Saints Row The Third'', they had to make the opening perfectly encompass the true nature of being the boss of an international crime syndicate. [[https://youtu.be/0cuhPPuTA3s And, oh GOD, did it ever.]]
** There's also the song that plays during the mission "[[https://youtu.be/NJrmm5P5WSw Air Steelport]]".
** Music for skydiving through aeroplanes: [[https://youtu.be/M5IpjB2cfbE The Mission Part 2]].
* ''VideoGame/SeriousSam 3: BFE'' has a [[https://youtu.be/UhHZUmYu7Uo retooled version]] of the original "War" song which is just as epic if not better than the original. Doubles as a SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound because it's generally cued by a [[TheWarSequence War Sequence]].
* ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}''. Classical music remixed by Shoji Meguro. [[https://youtu.be/Q06iJrlVY5k Awesome.]] [[http://youtu.be/3MkHe--TcM0 Really awesome.]] [[http://youtu.be/EsuJth9FXec Awesome to the max.]]
* ''VideoGame/FossilFighters'' has [[spoiler: King Dynal]]'s [[https://youtu.be/4j6GcVVxwcY battle theme]]. Easily the best track in the entire game.
* ''VideoGame/ClubPenguin: Elite Penguin Force'' has [[https://youtu.be/wEYGBHVqp0E Gary's Theme]] and [[https://youtu.be/K4s4g7d0J0w The Robot Trio's theme]]. The sequel, ''Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force: Herbert's Revenge'' has the [[https://youtu.be/fgsfJiMRJmQ song that plays when Club Penguin floods]].
* ''VideoGame/PerfectDark Zero'' has [[https://youtu.be/YyVmrwR3IEk "Limelight" by Kepi And Kat]] for the Nightclub Stakeout mission.

** [[https://youtu.be/1hg_C46jNIE "Pedestrians Crossing"]] - the ''main menu'' music. It just gets better from there, including...
** [[https://youtu.be/9DBjmo_KjRg The "Medici Tower" backdrop]], and its groovy bassline.
** [[https://youtu.be/XhlcMDCd-ws "New Meridian: Moonlit Melee"]], perfect for getting you in the mood for some fisticuffs.
** [[https://youtu.be/LGi_hfwzEp0 "In Just a Moment's Time"]], which caps everything off during the closing credits.
* ''VideoGame/GhostRecon Future Soldier'' has [[https://youtu.be/y8_I6kK0Bfk "Nemesis"]], a orchestral piece with a Gothic twist which introduces the [[EliteMooks Bodarks]] and one of the game's most intense firefights.
* ''VideoGame/CrashOfTheTitans'' has the catchy "[[https://youtu.be/B7A770sHrHo Turf's Up]]", which is quite popular among fans. As for more atmospheric music, "[[https://youtu.be/551kEmzoG-o Roast in the Machine]]" is quite sinister.
** Its sequel, ''VideoGame/CrashMindOverMutant'', has an even ''catchier'' soundtrack. Tracks include [[https://youtu.be/Msx2jSG8QZM the theme music]], "[[https://youtu.be/BnYVZmZworY The Wastelands]]", "[[https://youtu.be/tYb0Sge6RHc Big Fight #2]]", "[[https://youtu.be/oMVZPPOFAHg Rhinoroller Music #2]]" and "[[https://youtu.be/Tkz4pdrZ6E0 Hero Titan Showdown]]".
* Let's give props to ''VideoGame/AngryBirds'' with their [[https://youtu.be/te-YThYeXq4 Summer Pignic theme]].
* ''VideoGame/MaxPayne 3''[='=]s [[https://youtu.be/zEH_LSL4rVw TEARS]] by HEALTH is a theme fitting for well, ''[[ShapedLikeItself Max Payne 3]]'', really.

** ''Mamoru-kun wa Norowarete Shimatta!'' gives us "[[https://youtu.be/XqsNkD-FPEs YO-KAI Disco]]" as well as "[[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9362634 Karakuri Spirits]]" (which is apparently currently MIA on Website/YouTube).
** ''Eschatos'' doesn't stray far from Mamoru-kun, with tracks such as "[[https://youtu.be/wEZsWp-jPJQ Survive]]", "[[https://youtu.be/hrcNHERRyCI Point of No Return]]", "[[https://youtu.be/qtJFw3xnOb8 Stellar Light]]", and the most popular of them all: "[[https://youtu.be/4FICCXD9Aww Silver Lining]]".
** The most obscure of them all: ''NEW Eitango Target 1900DS'' and ''Eijukugo Target 1000DS'', two Japanese-only DS games made to teach proper English grammar. When you play the Astro Wars minigame, you get "[[https://youtu.be/DT5Gsk7tSzE this surprisingly amazing piece]]" considering it's in a game not meant to actually be a game.

** [[https://youtu.be/t8cELTdtw6U Build That Wall]], the most beautiful threat you have ever heard.
** [[https://youtu.be/GDflVhOpS4E Setting Sail, Coming Home]] the ending theme.
** [[https://youtu.be/YlfUcnSbKDA Mother, I'm here]]. Zulf singing his own funeral song (mother being Mother Nature in this case).
** [[https://youtu.be/gQWAcgefsQQ Spike in a Rail]]. Legitimizing the existence of the banjo.
* The original theme song for ''VideoGame/DragonsDogma'' was "[[https://youtu.be/fslNWime5lk Into Free -Dangan-]]" by B'z and was absolutely awesome. Unfortunately the style of the song (up-tempo modern rock) [[SoundtrackDissonance didn't fit with the medieval fantasy theme of the game at all]], and so the stand alone expansion Dark Arisen replaced it with a much less awesome but more thematically appropriate tune.

* ''VideoGame/ZettaiHeroProject'''s [[https://youtu.be/UdagozRrVfY Victory theme.]] ...''(sniff)''...
* [[https://youtu.be/CA74WNiDoi4 Nepgear's Theme Ver. V]] from ''VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory'' kicks in whenever the [=CPUs=] use their EXE attacks. Nothing makes Neptune transforming into a jet to shoot missiles more awesome than this song.

** [[https://youtu.be/duwlqZWJEcM An ambient score]] courtesy of [[Film/BrokebackMountain Gustavo]] [[{{Film/Babel}} Santaolalla]]. Highlights include its beautiful [[https://youtu.be/13_G67GRc7E main theme]] and the haunting track that plays at the very end of the game, [[https://youtu.be/JewvGI1DQ9U Home]].
** [[https://youtu.be/0NYv3Sck708 All Gone (No Escape)]] also stands out, especially since it plays while [[spoiler: Joel's carrying Ellie to the elevator at the end of the hospital level. You're running to safety as fast as you can, holding your surrogate daughter in your arms, completely defenseless against the dozens of soldiers chasing after you, with only this beautiful cello piece playing in the background]]. Arguably the best example of this game's music making an emotional scene even more powerful than it already was. It's the same soundtrack that played when [[spoiler:Sarah died in his arms.]]
** The [[https://youtu.be/YHmT14a529o "Alert Mode" music]] that plays during shootouts is pure tension and pure awesome.
* ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' has "[[https://youtu.be/mukiMaOSLEs Wet Hands]]", which sometimes automatically plays when you're playing the game, and is very calming.
* If you are a fan of Techno then the Wii Ware game ''[[https://youtu.be/iPUqur_uJ8M ThruSpace]]'' is a treat for you.

** [[https://youtu.be/cRZ09TLpXV0 Howling of Metal Hound (Stage 1)]] and the [[https://youtu.be/2C99LoLXOb0 Refrain version (Stage 5-2).]]
** [[https://youtu.be/K48kTiwnEnQ No Mercy!! (Stage 3-1).]]
** [[https://youtu.be/V0JNhQ4MKLs Big Pain (Stage 4).]]
** [[https://youtu.be/SApDz6bAFWw The Atonement (Stage 5-1).]]
** And it features yet another awesome iteration of Tsukumo's ''Justice Ray'' series of last boss themes: [[https://youtu.be/csWijy0VxIE The Last Howling -The Justice Ray Part5-.]]
* The 2009 ''VideoGame/BionicCommando'' had some pretty awesome tracks, like the [[https://youtu.be/hlTtRAf-PK4 main theme]], the [[https://youtu.be/TFNeqbKjRcM bombastic military march]] that plays during the fight [[spoiler: with Groeder]], and haunting [[https://youtu.be/GHc3DYsgbmc "Beyond Dark Skies"]] that plays over the final scene. Companion game for the 2009 version, ''Bionic Commando: Rearmed'' goes for straight remixes of the NES themes (arranged by Simon Viklund, who went to score ''VideoGame/PaydayTheHeist'' later) instead: [[https://youtu.be/91wTtZ2Qg0k main theme]] and [[https://youtu.be/uPtHTroVWPM "Power Plant"]].

** First off, the game's main theme, "[[https://youtu.be/yxfflNxpZGk Mnemonic Atomic]]" is easily the most memorable track. A couple of other songs by the fictional band like "[[https://youtu.be/61iAmkouQ-Y When I Save The World]]" or the [[https://youtu.be/pczo3oWC5e8 good ending song]] also deserve mention.
** The [[https://youtu.be/G9jw61_z3XM bad ending song]] isn't half-bad either, being much more subdued and quiet to remind you of how [[spoiler:you murdered your possessed best friend]].
** A few of the level tracks too, such as "[[https://youtu.be/ThqOt2_GHxI Castlemania]]", "[[https://youtu.be/3gItoLsrNtA Valley of Flesh]]" and "[[https://youtu.be/CVpVVhVkN_Y Gun and Bass]]".
* ''VideoGame/DeadlyPremonition'' has [[https://youtu.be/Eux3dq2TVCs this]] awesome hard-rocking tune for one of the boss fights.
* The remixed version of [[https://youtu.be/ono44E2OlEM Grabbag]] in ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever''.
* ''VideoGame/{{inFAMOUS 2}}''[='=]s ending gives us ''[[https://youtu.be/2Gb3oYjaU1o Fade Away]]'', by The Black Heart Procession. Starting off with a subdued piano tune, which gradually morphs into a EpicRiff forming the rest of the song, it flawlessly captures the [[BittersweetEnding atmosphere of the Heroic Ending]]. Its lyrics contribute a lot to that, detailing Cole's mindset just before his HeroicSacrifice, with him wondering if anyone will remember him or appreciate what he did.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SO2poJAaE_I Cry of the Banshee]] during the fight with the Metal Queen. Just... this.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1B_pZC8aWU Electric Eye]] from Music/JudasPriest.
** The use of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xzBm4nMTck Painkiller]] during the final boss. Seriously, final boss + Judas Priest = one of the most awesome boss fights in video game history.

* ''VideoGame/SpiderManShatteredDimensions'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpoSCPZW3bM several]] [[IncrediblyLamePun AMAZING]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJwlQnd3Rzs themes]].
* Regarding ''VideoGame/BlueDragon'', if God Himself decided to compose a song to be blasted during the Apocalypse, He would be hard-pressed to create one more Armageddon-heralding than [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Th255-1B2wQ The Seal Is Broken]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDlIEhLozDg The absolutely beautiful main theme]] from the exceptionally beautiful game ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles''. Also [[spoiler:Rosie at Isara's funeral, in both English and Japanese]].

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3wF0kUSpWE "Attack of the Drones"]] from ''VideoGame/GearsOfWar1''.

** Let's just give you a sampler pack, since otherwise we'd be here all day. Here's one of the stage tracks, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsV9ItRSb-4 "Cashmere Cannonball"]]; Rank 3's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs-SxiWXS8Y "Mach 13 Elephant Explosion"]]; Rank 7's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhnhMIJKSHs "Stop Hanging DJs"]]; and Rank 2's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TX9o6uZnEs "Pleather For Breakfast"]]. We'll stop here or else we'll end up posting the OST.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PYMZVuse4U "The virgin child makes her wish without feeling anything"]].
** The theme of [[spoiler:the True Final Boss, Henry]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FISXJNCcLM0 "We Are Finally Cowboys",]] deserves special mention.
** The Rank 1 battle against [[spoiler:Jeane]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1fZxIX0psU "Rocket Surgeon"]].
** The theme from the arcade shooter sequence, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNxD9giFC3A "Pure White Giant Tiny Glastonbury"]].
** The Sequel amps things up with some remixes from the Darkside album, and fresh, new tracks. Sample [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTlIzfL7tUI Phillistine]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuPy6dHjFXI Subuta.2]], and [[spoiler:New Destroyman]]'s theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3MV5NQP2dA Kill U 2wise Over.]]
** While it may not be extraordinary, you're gonna have a pretty damn hard time getting Cloe Walsh's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Llw4fiAGh2g Bondage Cake]] [[EarWorm out your head]].
** Skelter Helter's theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hrsQU8fuBs Sling Shot]] is pretty awesome.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sk77S5KvCx8 Twilight's theme]] might just be ''the best'' boss theme in the game, minus the Jasper Batt themes listed below.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sON9SYIIqo Reaper reaper...]]
** The beautiful, downtempo [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o67Bo1lxutQ Tooth Paste]], which leads wonderfully up to [[spoiler:Travis' HeelFaceTurn]], or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-Agp4yO5k8 Convulsive Madness, the theme for Batt's second form]], which makes the [[ThatOneBoss fight itself]] more tolerable. And the Beatles-esque [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPHlJdykif8 Dose of Innocence]] is basically the perfect theme song for {{Yandere}}s ''everywhere''.
** The theme for Batt's first form [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThhXOay6kTQ Dynamite Rocket]] is just as good. And then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YsWFMgQlxU Kill or Be Killed.]] There's something about making the NMH theme more funky, complete with sassy black {{engrish}} vocals, that's just AWESOME.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XL2od1AF_Cs Heavenly Star]] will send your soul to heaven.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONH5-U0JohE Shoegazer Watched the Stars]] is an absolute gem of inventive music. By combining an ethereal techno beat to heavy guitar riffs, the song makes the already surreal fight against Captain Vladimir all the more mystical.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYNT2F7JdL0 The]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mB0mQk1FKI whole]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVwh3FCAsKA damn]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=og2NshvyaNE soundtrack]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNKzCNo7DSs of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQxE8JJKccI Tom]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXB3miYJD-Y Clancy's]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH7DH2_sVUg Endwar.]] (Note that the latter links weren't featured in the soundtrack release. A fan combined the game's stinger tracks into ''consistent suites.'' That's dedication.)
* ''VideoGame/EliteBeatAgents'' + [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvLCnKqYWzA The Rolling Stones]] = Awesome incarnate. The way it's pulled off manages to simultaneously drive the point home for how ridiculously badass the Agents are, and why the Rolling Stones are considered to be among the best of the best in rock'n'roll music (or perhaps music in general).
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThQIUGiB1G0 This is our fight! Without a doubt! Time to ignite! We're not going down! (Without a Fight!)]]

** [[VideoGame/OsuTatakaeOuendan Ready steady, can't hold me back]]. [[FinalBoss Ready steady, give me good luck]]. [[AutobotsRockOut Ready steady, never look back]]. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome Let's get started]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsjaQJf7ZCA Ready Steady GO!!]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jElgtdoSqU Guitar Battle]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMFkoWd3vCw vs. Lou]] is amazing as well.
** Hell, this series brings us a (sorta) original awesome piece in the form of ''Guitar Hero 5'''s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECQUp4DmBII special version of]] [[Music/PublicEnemy "Bring the Noise,"]] with Zakk Wylde on guitar.
* ''VideoGame/PlantsVsZombies'' has a bunch of cool songs including [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iC0G6WdRTZw Brainiac Maniac]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOBnj42WACE The Roof.]]

** Well, just for the sake of the ''VideoGame/GuitarHero'' and ''VideoGame/RockBand'' fans, let's start with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfyE8c_ddP4 Sabotage vs. Monkey Wrench]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mRCDxI9JVw You Can't Touch Ice Ice Baby]] (You Can't Touch This vs. Ice Ice Baby), [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHWTWdv566Y We Will Robot Rock You]] (We Will Rock You vs. Robot Rock), plus other great combos are in store.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZxyYtDO090 Jukebox Hero vs. DJ Hero]]" - definitely the one song that should get players in the right mindset when they play the game.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_3ledCtpV4 Groundhog (Beat Juggle)]]" is one of the more popular tracks in the lineup. This is either because it's an awesome mix of an awesome track, or because it repeatedly taunts the player in a British accent. ''"This is no time to kotch!"''

** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2XQrnI94DU As I'm starin' thought the Red Mist/Red Mist]]".
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=by9fgbvqyaE WOLFGANG'S FIFTH]].
** [[Music/PublicEnemy "Bring the Noise"]] is back again; these [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMdJTB51Kz0 two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E555WcgHs4k mixes]] in ''DJ Hero'' simply jack the awesomeness UpToEleven ([[Film/ThisIsSpinalTap Spinal Tap]] pun intended).
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gc8TsBYvNQ Fix Up Look Sharp vs Genesis]] is one too, especially in [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome the game's intro video.]]
** "Just Dance" by Music/LadyGaga vs. "Ghosts N Stuff" by Music/Deadmau5. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3fQa0ohDaw Listen and be amazed.]]
** Let's just say Activision's ad agency knew what they were doing when they put [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1uUPnaQuZE this one]] in the commercials.

** The game deserves mention for making Boston's already-awesome "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qfFi7RBuQo Foreplay/Long Time]]" even more awesome. First, after the instrumental Foreplay section finishes and the band goes quiet, the stage goes dark, then lights up the members of your band, one by one, before the band comes in again. Then, at the end, rather than the fade-out from the original song, you get to experience the true awesomeness of the full ending, capped off with a 23-second-long Big Rock Ending that finishes one of the most epic songs in the game.

** Remember [[Music/TheUltimateShowdownOfUlitmateDestiny The Ultimate Showdown]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoDv30B02RY it just got an upgrade]].

** Taking into account how many musical references were through the game, it would be a sacrilege if Motoi Sakuraba couldn't produce a jewel like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVDTqnUQNa4 that song]].
** "Scrap and Build Ourselves", the final boss music. The piece is a remix of Chopin's Revolutionary Etude. Listen to it in high quality [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_fq3uSWHJg here]].

** All those [[PsychoStrings creepy strings]] all over the place? The mournful/disturbing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0nnYVZ1L6Q main theme]] is brilliant, Cohen's piano scherzo is magnificent, but for sheer bombastic awesome, you can't beat "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zQn2vEe_BA Welcome to Rapture]]". Some people on Website/{{Youtube}} [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofjMh0IXIGY seem]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZOwEisUc5A to like this soundtrack]], also. Then there's all that wonderful SoundtrackDissonance...
** ''VideoGame/{{BioShock|1}}''[='=]s soundtrack consists of many old 1940's/50's songs, including [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsvZuNuKPac "If I Didn't Care"]] by the Inkspots and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AkLE4X-bbU "How Much Is That Doggy In The Window"]], mostly playing in the background on scratchy records as you crawl about in the darkness being attacked by psychotic mutants. The SoundtrackDissonance escalates further when [[spoiler:Sander Cohen unleashes a horde of splicers on you while Tchaikovsky's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26YEuktTNCw "Waltz of the Flowers"]] plays in the background.]]

%%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyMEjZWARQU Agency radio.]]

** The game is exceptional for having original tracks produced for the game by licensed artists (with the backing tracks made by the developer's composer. [[http://platinumgames.com/2009/02/20/the-madworld-soundtrack/ More here]]), the combination of which leads to some of the best hip-hop tunes in a videogame. You gotta ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu9WfqJGoPc "Get It Up"]]''! There are lots of people who deeply hate Hip-Hop and yet can't stop themselves to hum the songs. Yes, they're ''that'' good.
** While most final boss themes go for {{Ominous Pipe Organ}}s, equally OminousLatinChanting, and general epic scale ([[MundaneMadeAwesome with varying levels of success]]), ''[=MadWorld=]'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vc-pQsoTL9c ''Look Pimpin!'']], a smooth, upbeat boast song sung from the boss's perspective. Once the boss TurnsRed (and yet... ''[[DeliberatelyMonochrome stays black]]'') it switches to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVC9jFQ6T20 So Cold]]. Still awesome.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmkJxL3ryKI RIDE!!]] is a very upbeat and cheery for a rap song, and the chorus is so damn [[EarWorm catchy]] that you ''will'' find yourself going "Can we go ''riiide''?".
* ''VideoGame/MirrorsEdge'' not only takes place in a timeframe and makes use of visuals similar to ''Anime/GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex'', it also features an equally amazing soundtrack that transports similar moods, while still being distinctly unique. Try the main theme (by Lisa Miskovsky). If you don't get chills, you're a robot! View it here: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2N1TJP1cxmo Still Alive]].

** Fans generally agree that the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE6niwOOUTE Ultra Heaven stage music]] is the crown jewel of the game.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZb1iS1K5vk Smooth Sherbert]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-aShpkZj00 Cobalt Caverns]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI0drkPjyrM Pirates Ocean]] are also standout tracks. The former is by Hideki Naganuma, mentioned above for his Jet Set Radio and Sonic Rush soundtracks. ''And it shows''.

*** One interesting thing to note that usually final boss or final forms of a boss in BulletHell shooters usually have dramatic choral music. It's completely [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10I0Xf0lp74 inverted in this game]].

*** ''Daifukkatsu Black Label'' takes the final boss themes and makes them... different. Taisabachi (aka [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast "The Supreme Weapon of Extreme Hellish Annihilation: Golden Disaster"]]) gets [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imjgHfYEbws Desperado]], while Hibachi gets the utterly chaotic [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3HE8XZ8WKY Mercilessness]].
*** And then Hibachi's music from Daioujou got turned UpToEleven in ''VideoGame/{{Ketsui}}'' (whose soundtrack was composed by the same guy) as Evacaneer DOOM's music: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNK7j-j_c68 No Remorse]].

*** DFK ver. 1.5 opens up with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c61roXoVFi0 2008 AD, Tokyo]].
*** From ''Daifukkatsu Black Label'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgho16DJlKU Flotage]], the music for Stage 3. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_V_1e2p-Dk Here's]] a slightly different version for if you unlock the BonusBoss.
*** Jake Kaufman, known for his video game remixes as well as some soundtracks like that of ''{{VideoGame/Contra}} 4'', worked on the soundtrack for ''Daifukkatsu Black Label''[='=]s Arrange mode (aka [[CrossOver Ketsu]][[FanNickname pachi]]). You know you're in for awesomeness when you start the game with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfFfDiNeTgI this]] remix of ''VideoGame/{{Ketsui}}''[='=]s stage 1 music.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLV8WN7LfBs The theme song]] to ''VisualNovel/TimeHollow'' is one of the few redeeming songs in a mediocre soundtrack, but really powerful.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6nc77yI3qA Banson's Aria.]] Lyrics in a DS game are rare (especially this one, in which all of the characters [[SpeakingSimlish speak Simlish]]), and this song not only fits the [[FlamboyantGay boss]] well, but it just sounds really good on the DS' speakers. Helps that the guy can sing, too, [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign even if it is all nonsense]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJzpLAOXMfY Go, Go, Goldren Robo Q!]] too. Two words: [[AutobotsRockOut TEA TIME]].
** [[spoiler:Cole]] himself has a rather awesome version of this with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c6uPiPrRVs Heavy Metal]], the final boss theme.
* Mark Griskey's soundtrack for ''VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed'' is especially great because it incorporates a balanced mix of original elements, such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AleeJmpPH68 General Kota's Theme]] and homages to John Williams' themes from the movies, which pop up to great effect in songs like "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFo6J6kPwMo PROXY and the Skyhook]]". There's also the awe-inspiring [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcRlkTWIQNc menu theme]].
* ''Disaster: Day of Crisis''[='=] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWSwAKVS-IA main theme]] is indeed pretty awesome, complete with OminousLatinChanting and such.
* ''VideoGame/StarOceanTheLastHope'' has a fairly awesome soundtrack, but the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqVfZyLSrpY battle music in the final dungeon]] is especially good for getting the blood pumping.
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHOQJV0qdWY NXE intro theme]] is pretty frakkin' awesome, even if it is really short.
* ''Universe At War: Earth Assault''. Another Klepacki production, it features such gems as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBz62nZVMJw Damage King]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0ZGBXCk2HQ Mechanical Brain]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_VfhU2Z8cQ Bass Case]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8O7_x64cIg0 Roots]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJvCl9t1e6M Display of Power]], and the GOD of Awesome Music, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OI_Fka3v8u8 Divine Intervention]].
* ''VideoGame/AdventRising'' had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ_hgmGEhsw "Bounty Hunter" a.k.a. "Koroem"]], the most epic SpaceOpera theme ever complete with OminousLatinChanting (grab the [=MP3=] from the [[http://www.adventtrilogy.com/images/music/Koroem.mp3 official site]]), and [[https://youtu.be/IYYXg1X4Kvk "Stolen Transport"]] (weird name, but your life will NOT be complete without listening to it at least once). Even Gamespot, which gave it a 6.3, said that the musical score was one of the greatest ever put into a video game.

** The fan made video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pC_aGQyFETU Ignis Solus]] is amusing by itself, but the music makes it really work. The high quality [=MP3=] version of that tune is even better if you can buy/find it.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQVSW9KlIhc The Art of War]], from "Meet the Soldier", is the RuleofThree applied to Awesome.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRDmirJATKs main theme]] is catchy, too.
** And with ''Meet the Spy'' we have been introduced to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EvcItjITGk Right Behind You,]] an absolutely chilling piece of music which perfectly underscores the Spy's mysterious and sinister nature.
** And with a recent update, the action packed, 60's bank-robbery film-esque song, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFsnmHZ8msM "Intruder Alert"]] definitely fits into this trope.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rkea7N-ByfM "More Gun"]] seems to continue the trend of the soundtrack topping itself with each addition.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLjs-63 Feak Rocket Jump Electro]].
* You think the repetitive "music" for ''VideoGame/SpaceInvaders'' can't be awesome in any sense? ''Space Invaders Get Even'' took it and made it epic for the Stage 1 theme, "The Battle Begins". Here's a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruWb_yoEtgo gameplay video]] with the song in action, since the soundtrack itself isn't uploaded to [=YouTube=] yet.
** Try the ''Space Invaders Extreme'' Stage 1 music, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icYDrCQdc70 Invade You]]. Also the Stage 5-B music, "Executor".
** From ''Extreme 2'', the music in normal 5-D, a high-energy J-core song. What makes that over the top is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr3CFQyq9p0 the sound effects for the stage]], some of them voiced by a typical J-pop shrill: "[[{{Engrish}} Ret's Pray]]" for the spawn sound, for example. Extreme Stage 5-C in the same game goes the extra mile and changes the firing sounds to girly {{kiai}}.
* ''VideoGame/DeathSmiles'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edVQqgDlM-o a few good ones]] too.
* ''VideoGame/TheConduit'' has an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HVSD64ILdE awesome menu theme]].
* ''VideoGame/OverlordII'' has a pretty neat soundtrack, with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8VNIk2aA9w Main Title]] song being an epically villainous {{Leitmotif}} accompanied by the Minion's singing. The soundtrack gets particularly great when the Overlord is about to engage in a big battle with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3gEeGuc2J8 Overlord Combat 2]] or in a destructive SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQN8Yh9Ocyg Overlord Wrath]].

* ''VideoGame/MuramasaTheDemonBlade'' has a beautiful soundtrack. Take, for example, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYIpQ6S5ZpM this track,]] or the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Yfkiruh-tg Battle Theme of The Road to Heaven]]
* ''[[VideoGame/BanjoKazooie Banjo Kazooie: Nuts 'N Bolts]]'' features an awesome soundtrack. Take all the music from the previous ''Banjo-Kazooie'' titles, along with [[VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay other]] [[VideoGame/BattleToads Rare]] [[VideoGame/DonkeyKongCountry franchises]], throw it together and orchestrate the whole thing, and you've got a game that's virtually orgasmic with sheer nostalgia and beautiful arrangement skill. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVyKEnN1Ar0 Listen to the main theme.]]

** The standout piece is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFeBVoEeIwM "Nate's Theme,"]] which plays in the main menu screens for both the original and the sequel (referred to in the latter as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkPF5UiDi4g "Nate's Theme 2.0"]]). Oddly enough, there is an actual [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzT41pEO7co "Uncharted Theme"]] on the soundtracks, but it's not as cool.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-VGTnSTpCM Badlands]] really makes you feel the majesty and expanse of the desert.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhwB43-UCaQ Reunion]] is quite a moving piece that plays [[spoiler: during Shaefer's death.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Wet}}'' has what could easily be called an Awesome ''Soundtrack''. The developers really outdid themselves looking for, and in some cases, composing music for this game. There is not a single song that does not fit the places they use it. You really owe it to yourself to check this game out if for nothing other than the music. Including: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT8ToRPc5N8 "She's lost control..",]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEnw6MmjYS4 "Switchblade kiss comes close",]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t32Z8rMJVw "Insane"]]. These are only a few songs of the WET soundtrack.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmQm_PySHCk There's also this theme.]] What about a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQ2QgcRrWlc cover]] of a pretty famous song? Or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zysr4weluSM Bayonetta's own theme?]] Then there's the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xKWgJNm9Mg0 opening playable sequence.]] Hell, just listen to the entire soundtrack!
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV3wFRy23cY The final boss theme]] is extremely epic and perfectly fits [[God who you are battling]].
%%** If [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_xGVDBY42s this]] doesn't get you hyped, what will?

* Each Psychopath from ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' has their own theme song - and in general each one is more than badass enough to be worthy of being themes of {{Crazy Awesome}}s. It's be easier to list which pieces ''aren't'' SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic, but perhaps instead we'll just direct you to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eETNjXZRL5o Carlito's]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5irITCl6LZU Isabela's]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5irITCl6LZU Paul's]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iPK9m5ihvU Sean's]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2gl-EVBkNo Cliff's]], and if it's your cup of tea [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7FJjtAuAIU the Convicts']] themes for now. The ending theme, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuyY1gTVTBc Justified by Drea]], is also pretty awesome. The sequel's got some cool themes too, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBn9WLXyDw0 for an Expy of Larry, Antoine's theme is fairly good]].

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbyYcJcWgCY A Dream of Armageddon]] is amazingly epic and totally fits the game theme.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFH_sLohbRQ Alex's Theme]] is a haunting and beautiful orchestral piece.
** And [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCIM9wVGrno Men Like Gods]] is also amazingly haunting, and will make the player's hair to stand on end despite playing an amazing two-legged engine of destruction.

* The Wii's Weather Channel's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGDzA7MODEI evening and night theme]] is a wonder for dissolving stress, it actually becomes an addiction. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLDhvJ0fmAw The world map at night]] also has a sort of quiet ambiance about it, fitting for looking down to the Earth from space.
* ''VideoGame/{{Raiden}} IV'', in addition to awesome original tunes like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPqYSfrR5p0 A Stormy Front]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrT8VzsOV3w Advantageous Development]], features arranged versions of several tunes from previous games, such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD8Lh8fUsPs Flap Towards the Hope (Raiden II Stage 7)]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNhMGao3UJs Tragedy Flame (Raiden II Stage 2)]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTUmz6Asd0Q Repeated Tragedy (Raiden II Stage 1)]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB2zZ4kjl-M All or Nothing (Raiden II Stage 3)]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnRD4QJxhSE Go to Blazes! {Raiden I boss}]] .
* The better portion of the ''VideoGame/KnightsInTheNightmare'' soundtrack by Shigeki Hayashi is quite awesome as well. There's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKalWN2ElpA Clash with the Imperial Princess Arlie]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aZXBNeFTAY Clash with the Dark King Zolgonark]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxr-nG88MKE Clash with the Black Knight Ganzer]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiGEgKOUHJc Clash with Cursed Pische]].
* ''VideoGame/TheLastRemnant'' gives us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtohIwOOKtA "Reversal!"]] If that doesn't get you in the mood for pulling off a moment of awesome, nothing does.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QinOrlu1Xpw "Bu bu poruche"]], the Yellow Locos' theme, will just cheer you right up.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-VkHstW_5A "Panguraratta"]], the Red Locos' theme, brings some swingin' island flavor.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd8v6tGNKMY "Bucho Mio"]], Green Locos' theme, has a snappy, almost J-pop-y flavor to it.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GipVW6DmTlk "Zappudo Geron"]], the Black Locos' theme, is ''ridiculously'' infectious. And funky fresh!
** And proving that the villains ''always'' get the best song, ladies and gentlemen, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DRf4RN9zJE "Kuttetekaruna."]] Now ''that's'' what a villain song should sound like!
** To add further proof, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzf1735-q1M "Merure Merure"]] is the song that plays in the last level of both games and it's usually associated with Bon Mucho, the BigBad. The fact that it is ''genuinely unsettling'' and it's the only song that the Locorocos seem to be afraid to sing makes for a really kickass WombLevel!
** And of course there's a very catchy theme song of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DefMNqBKpdw Loco Roco - Midnight Carnival]]".
* From ''VideoGame/FatalFrame 4'' comes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3Av3xJ5N30 Noise]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYquJBJdceQ ZERO no Chouritsu (Just Call My Name)]].
* Being a {{Retraux}} RhythmGame, the ''VideoGame/BitTrip'' series naturally has to have fittingly awesome music. The first level theme for ''Beat'', "[[http://www.commandervideo.com/00DESCENT11.mp3 Transition]]", is quite catchy. Additionally, each game in the series so far features menu and credits music from guest chiptune artists. "[[http://www.8bitpeoples.com/mp3/get/374/8bp059-06-bit_shifter-the_information_chase.mp3 The Information Chase]]" by [[http://bit.shifter.net/ Bit Shifter]], in particular, is very fitting for a credits sequence, especially that of the aforementioned ''VideoGame/BitTrip Beat''. Also, here is a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_xn43AMhcE PERFECT run]] of one of the easier levels.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbeFRAy4Q4A "Nanashi no Theme"]] from ''VideoGame/NanashiNoGame''. You're never going to hear a more melancholy and, after experiencing the moments it's linked to, ''terrifying'' chip tune in your life. The increasingly warped version that plays as you progress is even ''worse''.
* The ''Taiko no Tatsujin'' series, being a drumming game with cute graphics, actually had some great music. Who knows [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nb7eB8aI9zY a song about a pair of talking drumsticks]] could be this awesome.
* Those badass or suicidal enough to try ''{{VideoGame/Contra}} 4'' on Hard mode get treated to a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxFXrYn20Yo rockin' remix of the origina l Contra's Stage 1 music]] on the first stage. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgXKeuoJfi4 Harbor]] is another cool track from this.]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye-8pa7Kbn8 Gargoyle's Perch]], the song that likely drove Jin to evil.
** Who doesn't want to hear some YODELING [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgDFs88Zgro in Meadow Hill]]??

** ''DJ MAX Portable 2'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FnUc1j5MoQ Your Own Miracle]], the opening theme and BonusBoss.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TckpRsT4unE Son of Sun]], the ThatOneBoss of ''DJ MAX Technika'' and ''Black Square'' 's BonusBoss.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9y15W-clDcY Ready Now]] from ''DJMAX Portable Black Square'', a eurodance song with some moderate IntercourseWithYou overtones.
** ''DJMAX Portable 3'' brings us [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIT7oIGxIqM "Hanz Up!"]] by Mr. Funky, used as an ImageSong of sorts for ''Portable 3''.

** Worth mentioning are the tracks: "Tumbler", "Burning Man", "Are You Coming Home, Love MOM", "Regurgitation Pumping Station", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2zSy9S5osQ "Best of Times"]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku4eLhgsEE0 "Red Carpet Extend-o-matic"]].

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7NZ4oR4978 main theme]] is real sweet.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGBq_mtaPbM Dark Skies]] is a downright awesome piece from beginning to end.

* The first ''{{Mercenaries}}'' game had some great dramatic music, but the sequel? The extremely catchy tune [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FlaFYbQQaY "Oh No you Didn't!"]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAeFgmMKju0 Vertical Upshift]] is like the official soundtrack for "You are kicking ass!".
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gynlK50dl3I All For One]], which also serves as the ThemeMusicPowerUp for certain boss fights, '''instantly''' makes your fight a hundred times more epic.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrZap23zdWQ Dead End]], Musha Gundam's befittingly awesome theme.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY_-wa2PrTg Knight Gundam's Theme]] is pretty damn good.
* Speaking of ''Gundam'' games, ''[[VideoGame/GundamVsSeries Gundam Extreme Vs]]'' not only has lots of incredible music from the various series, but also the [[FinalBoss EXTREME Gundam's]] three themes: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rQTZLPA3ZY Divine Act -The Extreme-]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fybcd3kC-Zw Divine Act -The Extreme- Revised]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQiXKqIAW4A The End of Authority]].
%%* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2JNZG2XqWg JakAndDaxter]]: The Lost Frontier'' doesn't disappoint either.
* ''VideoGame/{{Killzone}} 2'', with such pure win as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPPXnU4vR2k Helghan Forever]], and the music that plays during the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AqTEOpyDm8 intro]] (with extra [[LargeHam ham]]). The theme song for ''Killzone 3'' is also quite great in a different sense than the KZ2 one. It conveys both the desperation of the main characters, their will to keep fighting aswell, as sounding somewhat prophetic towards what awaits the people of Helghan in the end.
* ''VideoGame/{{Lair}}'' may not be the best game, or even good to some, but composer [[Music/JohnDebney John Debney]] made sure the music was at the highest quality. Just take a look at the first prologue [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIgYwzNle8o&t=1m35s here.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Patapon}}'', despite having minimalistic and [[EarWorm incredibly catchy]] music, has some great melodies played during fever more like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pj1JVmnWJ18 Gorl's theme]] or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZpruJ_3fhI One of the boss themes]].

* ''VideoGame/ArcRiseFantasia'' has an excellent soundtrack. Two especially noteworhty pieces are the boss theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBwYmG7bU2U "Unexpected Fight"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlBvG6CIiyc "Now is the Time of Conclusion"]] (which may or may not be a boss theme).
* ''VideoGame/DarkVoid''. [[SoOkayItsAverage Middling game]], Bear [=McCreary=] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVu5tbkf6SA soundtrack]].
* ''SplitSecond'''s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoGBIjfCZk0 Elite Race]] theme. It's a piece that gets you pumped to race the best of the best, especially when the main riff kicks in.
* The music of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIvFy8l9AHw debut trailer]] for ''VideoGame/ShadowsOfTheDamned'' is pure awesome. Not surprising coming from Music/AkiraYamaoka.
* The underrated [=PS3=] gem ''VideoGame/FolkLore'' is filled with great pieces such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pz7sRy_qrKU "The Fairy Waltz"]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0slP2Eo0FmY "Where the Soul Goes"]] and the ending theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLgdO5n1z0U "Nephilim"]] to name a few.

* ''VideoGame/EnslavedOdysseyToTheWest'' deserves recognition for Nitin Sawhney's fantastic works of art. Notably: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dhcj827385w Cloud Surfing]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6nf7sQN-NY The Hero's Journey]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKQyuPqlLIY Rhino Chase]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G97rp6T5ztY Monkey Sunset]].
* ''Warriors Orochi'' boasts a whole slew of great tracks, most borrowed from previous Dynasty/Samurai Warriors games, but the high-energy anthem [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukw9F8nOy5A Alliance 1]] takes the cake.
* ''Warriors Orochi 3'' introduces a highly anticipated newcomer by breaking out a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5m3EKZLeQg wicked, high-energy remix]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP_D_YKnwi0 the original music from Ninja Gaiden's Act 4-2.]]
* Even though it's not advisable to [[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors pursue]] [[MemeticBadass Lu Bu,]] his arrival is always a good time to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfEMbK6qnvQ ROCK THE]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4KzheChan0 &#*! OUT!!]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWlCK11qEBg Ashes of Dreams / New]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWLEXhh4Doc Grandma]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=774LdRLqWsM Songs of the Ancients / Fate]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGtnBnmJ8MA Shadowlord]] is AMAZING.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsQJPNOEAdg Hills of Radiant Wind.]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiysEY4eN28 Escape]] is beautiful and full of energy, being one of many versions that are considered to be Kainé's themes, like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fu2NC88TYjI Salvation]] and another simply called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWhEoUI_6wI Kaine/Duet Version]].
** The soundtrack was so well received that they released more, with remixes and new versions of beloved songs, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hax_IRJWf4 such as an 8-bit version of several songs]] that are very popular and a gorgeous a capella of the song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kZdwPfeamw The Wretched Automatons]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Drakengard 3}}'' is scored by the same people responsible for ''VideoGame/NieR'', and the game's soundtrack is a feast for the ears, with memorable pieces like the main theme [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFyK-ajIAWU Black Song]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQrQEmClpWc This Silence is Mine]] (used in the TGS trailer), and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Itc4-Gk9IU Fallen God]], featuring Emi Evans once again.
* The music of ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamAsylum'' is very low key; however, it fits the mood of the game ''perfectly'' and... [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AbIb2QyJI4 well,]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXMHX9uDRNs just]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoHi0r4xMGM take]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wee7IFRXbXU a]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7lc7kqWwhA listen]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmYW_U1baXE here!]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hjyuQFhAsI Carmeaty Burana]], the FinalBoss theme, in particular.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBA6kQl_GOk Battle of Lil' Slugger]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE_Lrs8LomE Dr. Fetus's Castle]].

** You cannot deny that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4I23yxiJq4 the theme music]] is the best thing to happen to mankind.
** Or perhaps [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQ1u1m_3KbM Fable II's main theme.]]
** Then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0STS6xDQW7I Fable III]].
* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoViceCityStories'' with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm8q2mIRpeg Phil Collins singing a classic.]]
* For a game about killing opponents in the most brutal and imaginative ways possible, with characters that swear like sailors and don't even take the own story they're in seriously, ''VideoGame/{{Bulletstorm}}'' has an excellent [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqfB9OcKC_w main theme]].

** The game had an unusually awesome song from nowhere in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4ywyZHhunA this]]. It comes at one of the most epic parts of the game as well, sealed inside of an exploding engine room on your way to stop a stealth bomber from taking off.
** For a series that is typically very reserved in the grandeur of its music, some of the final boss music decides to kick the epic up through the roof, using tracks done by a full orchestra, no less. First up is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OLax-NenP8 Winds of Madness]] which is during the battle with Wesker before his evil plane of doom takes off. It starts off subdued and ambient, like most songs from the game. Then out of nowhere the orchestra kicks in and doesn't let up on the intensity until the end. And then almost right after, we get [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm1-dkBBq1Q Deep Ambition]], the music of the final battle. In a volcano. It is also suitably epic (if not a bit reminiscent of the Jaws Theme at certain points).
* The best part of ''Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles'' was the music. The game retold ''RE2'' and ''Code Veronica'', two games with a good deal of epic music in their own right. Not only were many of those tracks reproduced for this game, but many of them done so with full orchestra. Of particular note are any iteration of the Theme of G, and both of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_deQF4S5Uw4 Alexia]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlAcSBj_XH8 battle themes.]]
* ''VideoGame/{{Crysis}} 2'' has quite a lot of awesome tracks, but two that really stand out are the unnamed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zp9lKpMkLI menu theme]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9vytkmZ9K8 Burning Night]]. Chills.
* ''Videogame/AloneInTheDark2008'', despite being notoriously buggy with controls up the arse, has downright [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nh2kSs89Xxw outstanding music]] composed by Olivier Deriviere, who has also composed for [[VideoGame/{{Obscure}} Obscure II]].

** For example: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElSUKQOF3d4 Me and My Little War]] almost sounds like a relaxing version of J-E-N-O-V-A from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII''.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yjk-sFY0zYg The Search.]]
** Even the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKyn12_qCjs Title Screen]] is pretty catchy.
* An indendant game on X Box Live called [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin I Made A Game With Zombies In It]] features [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsmjdGjWeB0 this as the main theme.]] It plays during the entire play through of the game, and the game ends when the theme reaches its epic conclusion. Many players consider just the song itself worth the experience to play it, never mind that visual effects.
* ''Anime/TheSkyCrawlers''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIEreXQNZsM#t=2m4s Here is an excerpt]].
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSELOUysNQo end credits theme]] of ''VideoGame/TransformersWarForCybertron''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFHQcKxFd7E It also has a longer version]].
* The ''trailer'' for ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' brings us "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcFB8Rmy-Sc Icarus]]".
* ''VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown'' score, composed by Michael [=McCann=] (who also composed for ''DEHR''), has a number of memorable tracks. Chief among them is the incredibly epic "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJ1rL8Ts7Ro Deployment]]", which plays before every mission while you select your soldiers and their gear. New players often report being stuck at that screen a disproportionate amount of time before their very first mission--and not because they have trouble picking units.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLUJJJQgS6Q Ready Aurora]], the menu theme of ''VideoGame/{{HAWX}}''.
* The ''VideoGame/DrawnToLife'' series' vocal songs. Though there are only three of them. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZexuAuzt2Y The End]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxKyzy2M8bo Light of My Life]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YF89OSVPdt0 Real Life]] do sound quite awesome and have quite an effect on the emotional moments that they play during in the games.
* Say what you will about Full Auto 2: Battlelines, but the music is damned awesome irregardless of opinion of the game in question, with some of the best themes such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1OZjZTrufw Messij Lost]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WnKo16Iun0 Burning World]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGITCk99MEY Warlord]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUFmEUfKOk4 Diesel and Destruction]].
* Pretty much the entire soundtrack from ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}}'' is excellent, with a broad mix on genres and several different composers, it's music perfectly suiting the epic scale of the game. Just some of the best include [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4vCEHpv6Hg You Will Know Our Names]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JS7XVMNNZI8 One Who Gets in Our Way]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCclUgQk1Lk Mechanical Rhythm]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIrjgE2-C-s Tragic Decision]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug6B7c_Xut8 The God-Slaying Sword]], which are all battle themes at various parts of the game; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAW4xlbyu28 Engage the Enemy]], which makes a perfect accompaniment to some of the more tragic cut-scenes; and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xweRl4LZlmo Guar Plains]], which plays on the expansive Bionis' Leg. To say nothing of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWfyxPVdH50 Satorl, the Shimmering Marsh]], which is half the reason nobody goes through the Satorl Marsh during the day if they can help it.
* And following up to the ''VideoGame/ArcanaHeart'' series, the third game adds up with the [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Lust SIN]]-esque [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MeG9c2FeZg White Valkyria]], probably the theme of the new heroine Weiss. The rest of the soundtrack are also kickass.
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic abounds in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV''. Take [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqE8M2ZnFL8 the main game's theme]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vwk_DKY0pnI The Lost and Damned main theme]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTYEXej9Kv0 The Ballad of Gay Tony's main theme]].
* Dead Space has a knack for remixing ''nursery rhymes'' into disturbing music. Examples are [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRXQsQKGqIU Twinkle Twinkle]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16MdwEb_EGs Ring Around The Rosie.]]

** You undertake a mission to seize a penthouse crib from the Syndicate. The Boss opts to do so by parachuting into the penthouse's pool and killing everything that moves... while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOshf_FeG6c "Power"]] by Music/KanyeWest plays in the background.
** The Awesome is matched by the background music for the finale, wherein the Boss has to choose to either track down the BigBad or [[ArmiesAreEvil stop the army]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLNCX84-kfA "Holding Out for a Hero"]] by Bonnie Tyler starts playing.
** Of course, with a game as crazy as ''Saints Row The Third'', they had to make the opening perfectly encompass the true nature of being the boss of an international crime syndicate. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cuhPPuTA3s And, oh GOD, did it ever.]]
** There's also the song that plays during the mission "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJrmm5P5WSw Air Steelport]]".
** Music for skydiving through aeroplanes: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5IpjB2cfbE The Mission Part 2]].
* ''VideoGame/SeriousSam 3: BFE'' has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhHZUmYu7Uo retooled version]] of the original "War" song which is just as epic if not better than the original. Doubles as a SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound because it's generally cued by a [[TheWarSequence War Sequence]].
* ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}''. Classical music remixed by Shoji Meguro. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q06iJrlVY5k Awesome.]] [[http://youtu.be/3MkHe--TcM0 Really awesome.]] [[http://youtu.be/EsuJth9FXec Awesome to the max.]]
* ''VideoGame/FossilFighters'' has [[spoiler: King Dynal]]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4j6GcVVxwcY battle theme]]. Easily the best track in the entire game.
* ''VideoGame/ClubPenguin: Elite Penguin Force'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEYGBHVqp0E Gary's Theme]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4s4g7d0J0w The Robot Trio's theme]]. The sequel, ''Club Penguin: Elite Penguin Force: Herbert's Revenge'' has the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgsfJiMRJmQ song that plays when Club Penguin floods]].
* ''VideoGame/PerfectDark Zero'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyVmrwR3IEk "Limelight" by Kepi And Kat]] for the Nightclub Stakeout mission.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hg_C46jNIE "Pedestrians Crossing"]] - the ''main menu'' music. It just gets better from there, including...
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DBjmo_KjRg The "Medici Tower" backdrop]], and its groovy bassline.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhlcMDCd-ws "New Meridian: Moonlit Melee"]], perfect for getting you in the mood for some fisticuffs.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGi_hfwzEp0 "In Just a Moment's Time"]], which caps everything off during the closing credits.
* ''VideoGame/GhostRecon Future Soldier'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8_I6kK0Bfk "Nemesis"]], a orchestral piece with a Gothic twist which introduces the [[EliteMooks Bodarks]] and one of the game's most intense firefights.
* ''VideoGame/CrashOfTheTitans'' has the catchy "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7A770sHrHo Turf's Up]]", which is quite popular among fans. As for more atmospheric music, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=551kEmzoG-o Roast in the Machine]]" is quite sinister.
** Its sequel, ''VideoGame/CrashMindOverMutant'', has an even ''catchier'' soundtrack. Tracks include [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Msx2jSG8QZM the theme music]], "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnYVZmZworY The Wastelands]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYb0Sge6RHc Big Fight #2]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMVZPPOFAHg Rhinoroller Music #2]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tkz4pdrZ6E0 Hero Titan Showdown]]".
* Let's give props to ''VideoGame/AngryBirds'' with their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=te-YThYeXq4 Summer Pignic theme]].
* ''VideoGame/MaxPayne 3''[='=]s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEH_LSL4rVw TEARS]] by HEALTH is a theme fitting for well, ''[[ShapedLikeItself Max Payne 3]]'', really.

** ''Mamoru-kun wa Norowarete Shimatta!'' gives us "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqsNkD-FPEs YO-KAI Disco]]" as well as "[[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9362634 Karakuri Spirits]]" (which is apparently currently MIA on YouTube).
** ''Eschatos'' doesn't stray far from Mamoru-kun, with tracks such as "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEZsWp-jPJQ Survive]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrcNHERRyCI Point of No Return]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtJFw3xnOb8 Stellar Light]]", and the most popular of them all: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FICCXD9Aww Silver Lining]]".
** The most obscure of them all: ''NEW Eitango Target 1900DS'' and ''Eijukugo Target 1000DS'', two Japanese-only DS games made to teach proper English grammar. When you play the Astro Wars minigame, you get "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT5Gsk7tSzE this surprisingly amazing piece]]" considering it's in a game not meant to actually be a game.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8cELTdtw6U Build That Wall]], the most beautiful threat you have ever heard.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDflVhOpS4E Setting Sail, Coming Home]] the ending theme.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YlfUcnSbKDA Mother, I'm here]]. Zulf singing his own funeral song (mother being Mother Nature in this case).
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQWAcgefsQQ Spike in a Rail]]. Legitimizing the existence of the banjo.
* The original theme song for ''VideoGame/DragonsDogma'' was "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fslNWime5lk Into Free -Dangan-]]" by B'z and was absolutely awesome. Unfortunately the style of the song (up-tempo modern rock) [[SoundtrackDissonance didn't fit with the medieval fantasy theme of the game at all]], and so the stand alone expansion Dark Arisen replaced it with a much less awesome but more thematically appropriate tune.

* ''VideoGame/ZettaiHeroProject'''s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdagozRrVfY Victory theme.]] ...''(sniff)''...
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CA74WNiDoi4 Nepgear's Theme Ver. V]] from ''VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory'' kicks in whenever the [=CPUs=] use their EXE attacks. Nothing makes Neptune transforming into a jet to shoot missiles more awesome than this song.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duwlqZWJEcM An ambient score]] courtesy of [[Film/BrokebackMountain Gustavo]] [[{{Film/Babel}} Santaolalla]]. Highlights include its beautiful [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13_G67GRc7E main theme]] and the haunting track that plays at the very end of the game, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JewvGI1DQ9U Home]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NYv3Sck708 All Gone (No Escape)]] also stands out, especially since it plays while [[spoiler: Joel's carrying Ellie to the elevator at the end of the hospital level. You're running to safety as fast as you can, holding your surrogate daughter in your arms, completely defenseless against the dozens of soldiers chasing after you, with only this beautiful cello piece playing in the background]]. Arguably the best example of this game's music making an emotional scene even more powerful than it already was. It's the same soundtrack that played when [[spoiler:Sarah died in his arms.]]
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHmT14a529o "Alert Mode" music]] that plays during shootouts is pure tension and pure awesome.
* ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' has "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mukiMaOSLEs Wet Hands]]", which sometimes automatically plays when you're playing the game, and is very calming.
* If you are a fan of Techno then the Wii Ware game ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPUqur_uJ8M ThruSpace]]'' is a treat for you.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRZ09TLpXV0 Howling of Metal Hound (Stage 1)]] and the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2C99LoLXOb0 Refrain version (Stage 5-2).]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K48kTiwnEnQ No Mercy!! (Stage 3-1).]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0JNhQ4MKLs Big Pain (Stage 4).]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SApDz6bAFWw The Atonement (Stage 5-1).]]
** And it features yet another awesome iteration of Tsukumo's ''Justice Ray'' series of last boss themes: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csWijy0VxIE The Last Howling -The Justice Ray Part5-.]]
* The 2009 ''VideoGame/BionicCommando'' had some pretty awesome tracks, like the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlTtRAf-PK4 main theme]], the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFNeqbKjRcM bombastic military march]] that plays during the fight [[spoiler: with Groeder]], and haunting [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHc3DYsgbmc "Beyond Dark Skies"]] that plays over the final scene. Companion game for the 2009 version, ''Bionic Commando: Rearmed'' goes for straight remixes of the NES themes (arranged by Simon Viklund, who went to score ''VideoGame/PaydayTheHeist'' later) instead: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91wTtZ2Qg0k main theme]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPtHTroVWPM "Power Plant"]].

** First off, the game's main theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxfflNxpZGk Mnemonic Atomic]]" is easily the most memorable track. A couple of other songs by the fictional band like "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61iAmkouQ-Y When I Save The World]]" or the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pczo3oWC5e8 good ending song]] also deserve mention.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9jw61_z3XM bad ending song]] isn't half-bad either, being much more subdued and quiet to remind you of how [[spoiler:you murdered your possessed best friend]].
** A few of the level tracks too, such as "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThqOt2_GHxI Castlemania]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gItoLsrNtA Valley of Flesh]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVpVVhVkN_Y Gun and Bass]]".
* ''VideoGame/DeadlyPremonition'' has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eux3dq2TVCs this]] awesome hard-rocking tune for one of the boss fights.
* The remixed version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ono44E2OlEM Grabbag]] in ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever''.
* ''VideoGame/{{inFAMOUS 2}}''[='=]s ending gives us ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gb3oYjaU1o Fade Away]]'', by The Black Heart Procession. Starting off with a subdued piano tune, which gradually morphs into a EpicRiff forming the rest of the song, it flawlessly captures the [[BittersweetEnding atmosphere of the Heroic Ending]]. Its lyrics contribute a lot to that, detailing Cole's mindset just before his HeroicSacrifice, with him wondering if anyone will remember him or appreciate what he did.

* ''VideoGame/SeriousSam 3: BFE'' has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhHZUmYu7Uo retooled version]] of the original "War" song which is just as epic if not better than the original. Doubles as a MostWonderfulSound because it's generally cued by a [[TheWarSequence War Sequence]].

* ''VideoGame/AdventRising'' had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ_hgmGEhsw "Bounty Hunter" a.k.a. "Koroem"]], the most epic SpaceOpera theme ever complete with OminousLatinChanting (grab the [=MP3=] from the [[http://www.adventtrilogy.com/images/music/Koroem.mp3 official site]]), and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYYXg1X4Kvk "Stolen Transport"]] (weird name, but your life will NOT be complete without listening to it at least once). Even Gamespot, which gave it a 6.3, said that the musical score was one of the greatest ever put into a video game.

** The fan made video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pC_aGQyFETU Ignis Solus]] is amusing by itself, but the music makes it really work. The high quality MP3 version of that tune is even better if you can buy/find it.

* ''VideoGame/AdventRising'' had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ_hgmGEhsw "Bounty Hunter" a.k.a. "Koroem"]], the most epic SpaceOpera theme ever complete with OminousLatinChanting (grab the MP3 from the [[http://www.adventtrilogy.com/images/music/Koroem.mp3 official site]]), and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYYXg1X4Kvk "Stolen Transport"]] (weird name, but your life will NOT be complete without listening to it at least once). Even Gamespot, which gave it a 6.3, said that the musical score was one of the greatest ever put into a video game.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CA74WNiDoi4 Nepgear's Theme Ver. V]] from ''VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory'' kicks in whenever the CPUs use their EXE attacks. Nothing makes Neptune transforming into a jet to shoot missiles more awesome than this song.

* The theme song to ''VisualNovel/TimeHollow'', the only good thing about that soundtrack, but really powerful.

* ''VideoGame/InFamous2'': [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETfdt5xMc9Q Fade Away]], the end credits theme, especially if you got the good ending.

* ''Armored Hunter Gunhound EX'', the PSP/PC ''VideoGame/TargetEarth''/[[VideoGame/AssaultSuitsValken Cybernator]] inspired mech shooter, is a game filled with badass, rocking music. Courtesy of composer Hyakutaro Tsukumo, of Technosoft/''ThunderForce'' ''V'' fame:

* A lot of the soundtrack of ''[[SuperMonkeyBall Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz]]'' qualifies.

* And then you have ''VideoGame/GuitarHero's'' sister-series, ''VideoGame/DJHero''. Where to start?

** ''VideoGame/{{BioShock|1}}'s'' soundtrack consists of many old 1940's/50's songs, including [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsvZuNuKPac "If I Didn't Care"]] by the Inkspots and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AkLE4X-bbU "How Much Is That Doggy In The Window"]], mostly playing in the background on scratchy records as you crawl about in the darkness being attacked by psychotic mutants. The SoundtrackDissonance escalates further when [[spoiler:Sander Cohen unleashes a horde of splicers on you while Tchaikovsky's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26YEuktTNCw "Waltz of the Flowers"]] plays in the background.]]

* ''VideoGame/{{inFAMOUS 2}}'s'' ending gives us ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gb3oYjaU1o Fade Away]]'', by The Black Heart Procession. Starting off with a subdued piano tune, which gradually morphs into a EpicRiff forming the rest of the song, it flawlessly captures the [[BittersweetEnding atmosphere of the Heroic Ending]]. Its lyrics contribute a lot to that, detailing Cole's mindset just before his HeroicSacrifice, with him wondering if anyone will remember him or appreciate what he did.

* The boss battle music for "The Mailman" Karl Malone, Shaq Diesel, and Dr. J on [[Creator/ElectronicArts EA's]] ''NBAJam'' are really awesome to listen.

* ''MuramasaTheDemonBlade'' has a beautiful soundtrack. Take, for example, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYIpQ6S5ZpM this track,]] or the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Yfkiruh-tg Battle Theme of The Road to Heaven]]

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDlIEhLozDg The absolutely beautiful main theme]] from the exceptionally beautiful game ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles''.
** Also [[spoiler:Rosie at Isara's funeral, in both English and Japanese]]
* The music for the first ''VideoGame/GearsOfWar1'' was composed by Kevin Riepl, who also wrote most of the music for [[AwesomeMusic/{{Unreal}} another]] game series of Creator/EpicGames. Said awesomeness is still intact, but instead of techno-rock asskicking tracks, we have orchestral asskicking ones.

* Ah, ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes''... Let's just give you a sampler pack, since otherwise we'd be here all day. Here's one of the stage tracks, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsV9ItRSb-4 "Cashmere Cannonball"]]; Rank 3's theme, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs-SxiWXS8Y "Mach 13 Elephant Explosion"]]; Rank 7's theme, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhnhMIJKSHs "Stop Hanging DJs"]]; and Rank 2's theme, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TX9o6uZnEs "Pleather For Breakfast"]]. We'll stop here or else we'll end up posting the OST.

*** Here's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZB1_IuM9qc&feature=PlayList&p=192D4D9402B39B80&index=0 Youtube playlist]] of every song but YMCA. (Grr, copyright!)

* ''VideoGame/RockBand'' deserves mention for making Boston's already-awesome "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qfFi7RBuQo Foreplay/Long Time]]" even more awesome. First, after the instrumental Foreplay section finishes and the band goes quiet, the stage goes dark, then lights up the members of your band, one by one, before the band comes in again. Then, at the end, rather than the fade-out from the original song, you get to experience the true awesomeness of the full ending, capped off with a 23-second-long Big Rock Ending that finishes one of the most epic songs in the game.

* "Heaven's Mirror", the ending theme from ''VideoGame/EternalSonata''.

** Although "A Relaxing Place", "Reflect the Sky, Blossom of Life", "Dive Into the Vast Expanse" and "Conduct the Breeze" are standout tracks.
** And especially "Leap the Precipice".

* ''VideoGame/{{BioShock|1}}''. All those [[PsychoStrings creepy strings]] all over the place? The mournful/disturbing [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0nnYVZ1L6Q main theme]] is brilliant, Cohen's piano scherzo is magnificent, but for sheer bombastic awesome, you can't beat "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zQn2vEe_BA Welcome to Rapture]]". Some people on Website/{{Youtube}} [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofjMh0IXIGY seem]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZOwEisUc5A to like this soundtrack]], also. Then there's all that wonderful SoundtrackDissonance...

* ''Crackdown''. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyMEjZWARQU Agency radio.]]
** Speaking of ''Crackdown'', and kind of likes the "Main theme" that pops up here and there in the ''Crackdown 2'' demo ias a standout. In particular, the version that plays when you detonate a Sunburst beacon is just epic, if a bit on the short side.
* ''VideoGame/MadWorld'' is exceptional for having original tracks produced for the game by licensed artists (with the backing tracks made by the developer's composer. [[http://platinumgames.com/2009/02/20/the-madworld-soundtrack/ More here]]), the combination of which leads to some of the best hip-hop tunes in a videogame. You gotta ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eu9WfqJGoPc "Get It Up"]]''!
** Let's add that there are lots of people who deeply hate Hip-Hop and yet can't stop themselves to hum the songs. Yes, they're ''that'' good.

* ''VideoGame/MirrorsEdge'' not only takes place in a timeframe and makes use of visuals similar to ''Anime/GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex'', it also features an equally amazing soundtrack that transports similar moods, while still being distinctly unique.
** The main theme (by Lisa Miskovsky). If you don't get chills, you're a robot! View it here: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2N1TJP1cxmo Still Alive]].
* A lot of the soundtrack of ''[[SuperMonkeyBall Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz]]'' qualifies, but fans generally agree that the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE6niwOOUTE Ultra Heaven stage music]] is the crown jewel of the game.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZb1iS1K5vk Smooth Sherbert]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-aShpkZj00 Cobalt Caverns]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI0drkPjyrM Pirates Ocean]] are also standout tracks.
*** The former is by Hideki Naganuma, mentioned above for his Jet Set Radio and Sonic Rush soundtracks. ''And it shows''.
* Boss themes from ''Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu''.
** One interesting thing to note that usually final boss or final forms of a boss in BulletHell shooters usually have dramatic choral music. It's completely [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10I0Xf0lp74 Inverted in this game]].
** The boss themes for the Hibachi's second and third forms in ''Dodonpachi Daioujou''. The third form's music is remixed in ''Daifukkatsu'' as well.
** ''Daifukkatsu Black Label'' takes the final boss themes and makes them... different. Taisabachi (aka [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast "The Supreme Weapon of Extreme Hellish Annihilation: Golden Disaster"]]) gets [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imjgHfYEbws Desperado]], while Hibachi gets the utterly chaotic [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3HE8XZ8WKY Mercilessness]].
** And then Hibachi's music from Daioujou got turned UpToEleven in ''VideoGame/{{Ketsui}}'' (whose soundtrack was composed by the same guy) as Evacaneer DOOM's music: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNK7j-j_c68 No Remorse]].

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6nc77yI3qA Banson's Aria]] from ''VideoGame/HenryHatsworthInThePuzzlingAdventure''. Lyrics in a DS game are rare (especially this one, in which all of the characters [[SpeakingSimlish speak Simlish]]), and this song not only fits the [[FlamboyantGay boss]] well, but it just sounds really good on the DS' speakers. Helps that the guy can sing, too, [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign even if it is all nonsense]].

* Mark Griskey's soundtrack for ''VideoGame/TheForceUnleashed'' is especially great because it incorporates a balanced mix of original elements, such as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AleeJmpPH68 General Kota's Theme]] and homages to John Williams' themes from the movies, which pop up to great effect in songs like "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFo6J6kPwMo PROXY and the Skyhook]]".
** The awe-inspiring [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcRlkTWIQNc menu theme]].

* The ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' fan made video [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pC_aGQyFETU Ignis Solus]] is amusing by itself, but the music makes it really work. The high quality MP3 version of that tune is even better if you can buy/find it.

* The soundtrack to the ''VideoGame/{{Uncharted}}'' series on the [=PS3=] is done by Greg Edmonson, known for his work on ''{{Series/Firefly}}''. The standout piece is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFeBVoEeIwM "Nate's Theme,"]] which plays in the main menu screens for both the original and the sequel (referred to in the latter as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkPF5UiDi4g "Nate's Theme 2.0"]]). Oddly enough, there is an actual [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzT41pEO7co "Uncharted Theme"]] on the soundtracks, but it's not as cool.

* ''VideoGame/{{Wet}}'' has what could easily be called an Awesome ''Soundtrack''. The developers really outdid themselves looking for, and in some cases, composing music for this game. There is not a single song that does not fit the places they use it. You really owe it to yourself to check this game out if for nothing other than the music.
** Including: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT8ToRPc5N8 "She's lost control..",]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEnw6MmjYS4 "Switchblade kiss comes close",]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t32Z8rMJVw "Insane"]]. These are only a few songs of the WET soundtrack.
* The ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'' soundtrack is just epic, high energy jazz. If [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_xGVDBY42s this]] doesn't get you hyped, what will?

* In addition to being one of the hardest game series ever programmed, ''VideoGame/BitTrip'' has some of the best chiptunes you'll ever hear. Also, here is a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_xn43AMhcE PERFECT run]] of one of the easier levels.
* Each Psychopath from ''VideoGame/DeadRising'' has their own theme song - and in general each one is more than badass enough to be worthy of being themes of {{Crazy Awesome}}s. It's be easier to list which pieces ''aren't'' SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic, but perhaps instead we'll just direct you to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eETNjXZRL5o Carlito's]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5irITCl6LZU Isabela's]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5irITCl6LZU Paul's]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iPK9m5ihvU Sean's]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2gl-EVBkNo Cliff's]], and if it's your cup of tea [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7FJjtAuAIU the Convicts']] themes for now. The ending theme, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuyY1gTVTBc Justified by Drea]], is also pretty awesome.
** The sequel's got some cool themes too, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBn9WLXyDw0 for an Expy of Larry, Antoine's theme is fairly good]].

* The Wii's Weather Channel's [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGDzA7MODEI evening and night theme]] is a wonder for dissolving stress, it actually becomes an addiction.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLDhvJ0fmAw The world map at night]] also has a sort of quiet ambiance about it, fitting for looking down to the Earth from space.
* ''{{Raiden}} IV'', in addition to awesome original tunes like [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPqYSfrR5p0 A Stormy Front]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UrT8VzsOV3w Advantageous Development]], features arranged versions of several tunes from previous games, such as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD8Lh8fUsPs Flap Towards the Hope(Raiden II Stage 7)]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNhMGao3UJs Tragedy Flame(Raiden II Stage 2)]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTUmz6Asd0Q Repeated Tragedy (Raiden II Stage 1)]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB2zZ4kjl-M All or Nothing (Raiden II Stage 3)]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnRD4QJxhSE Go to Blazes! {Raiden I boss}]] .

* From ''FatalFrame 4'' comes [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3Av3xJ5N30 Noise]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYquJBJdceQ ZERO no Chouritsu (Just Call My Name)]].
* Being a {{Retraux}} RhythmGame, the ''VideoGame/BitTrip'' series naturally has to have fittingly awesome music. The first level theme for ''Beat'', "[[http://www.commandervideo.com/00DESCENT11.mp3 Transition]]", is quite catchy. Additionally, each game in the series so far features menu and credits music from guest chiptune artists. "[[http://www.8bitpeoples.com/mp3/get/374/8bp059-06-bit_shifter-the_information_chase.mp3 The Information Chase]]" by [[http://bit.shifter.net/ Bit Shifter]], in particular, is very fitting for a credits sequence, especially that of the aforementioned ''VideoGame/BitTrip Beat''.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbeFRAy4Q4A "Nanashi no Theme"]] from ''NanashiNoGame''. You're never going to hear a more melancholy and, after experiencing the moments it's linked to, ''terrifying'' chip tune in your life.
** The increasingly warped version that plays as you progress is even ''worse''.

* Those badass or suicidal enough to try ''{{VideoGame/Contra}} 4'' on Hard mode get treated to a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxFXrYn20Yo rockin' remix of the origina l Contra's Stage 1 music]] on the first stage.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgXKeuoJfi4 Harbor]] is another cool track from this]]
* ''Tekken 6'' adds [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye-8pa7Kbn8 Gargoyle's Perch]], the song that likely drove Jin to evil.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FnUc1j5MoQ Your Own Miracle]], the opening theme and BonusBoss of ''DJ MAX Portable 2''.

* The ''VideoGame/CastleCrashers'' [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7NZ4oR4978 main theme]] is real sweet.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAeFgmMKju0 Vertical Upshift]] from ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriorsGundam 2'' is like the official soundtrack for "You are kicking ass!".

* ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2JNZG2XqWg JakAndDaxter]]: The Lost Frontier'' doesn't disappoint either.
* ''VideoGame/{{Killzone}} 2'', with such pure win as [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPPXnU4vR2k Helghan Forever]], and the music that plays during the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AqTEOpyDm8 intro]] (with extra [[LargeHam ham]]).
** The theme song for ''Killzone 3'' is also quite great in a different sense than the KZ2 one. It conveys both the desperation of the main characters, their will to keep fighting aswell, as sounding somewhat prophetic towards what awaits the people of Helghan in the end.

** ''Warriors Orochi 3'' introduces a highly anticipated newcomer by breaking out a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5m3EKZLeQg wicked, high-energy remix]] of [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP_D_YKnwi0 the original music from Ninja Gaiden's Act 4-2.]]

* ''VideoGame/NieR'''s OST is made of awesome. Regardless of whether you like the game, the soundtrack is up there with the best, to the point that the creators were frustrated at the music being more popular than the game. It has a lot of vocal work, including both choral and beautiful, haunting solos by vocalist Emi Evans. All of these are in made-up languages based on current ones except for the theme song, Ashes of Dreams. The entire soundtrack deserves to be on this page, but to list a few highlights: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWlCK11qEBg Ashes of Dreams / New]]. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWLEXhh4Doc Grandma]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=774LdRLqWsM Songs of the Ancients / Fate]].

* ''[[VideoGame/MeatBoy Super Meat Boy]]'' has some. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hjyuQFhAsI Carmeaty Burana]], the FinalBoss theme, in particular.

* ''VideoGame/{{Fable|I}}'', you cannot deny that [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4I23yxiJq4 the theme music]] is the best thing to happen to mankind.

* ''Resident Evil 5'' had an unusually awesome song from nowhere in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4ywyZHhunA this]]. It comes at one of the most epic parts of the game as well, sealed inside of an exploding engine room on your way to stop a stealth bomber from taking off.
** And that's not even the most epic it gets. For a series that is typically very reserved in the grandeur of its music, some of the final boss music decides to kick the epic up through the roof, using tracks done by a full orchestra, no less. First up is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OLax-NenP8 Winds of Madness]] which is during the battle with Wesker before his evil plane of doom takes off. It starts off subdued and ambient, like most songs from the game. Then out of nowhere the orchestra kicks in and doesn't let up on the intensity until the end. And then almost right after, we get [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm1-dkBBq1Q Deep Ambition]], the music of the final battle. In a volcano. It is also suitably epic (if not a bit reminiscent of the Jaws Theme at certain points).
* Speaking of Resident Evil, arguably the best part of Darkside Chronicles was the music. The game retold RE2 and Code Veronica, two games with a good deal of epic music in their own right. Not only were many of those tracks reproduced for this game, but many of them done so with full orchestra. Of particular note are any iteration of the Theme of G, and both of the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_deQF4S5Uw4 Alexia]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jlAcSBj_XH8 battle themes.]]

* [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV Street Fighter IV/ Super Street Fighter IV]] gives you some of the character themes and remixes:

* Pretty much the entire soundtrack from ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}}'' is excellent, with a broad mix on genres and several different composers, it's music perfectly suiting the epic scale of the game. Just some of the best include [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4vCEHpv6Hg You Will Know Our Names]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JS7XVMNNZI8 One Who Gets in Our Way]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCclUgQk1Lk Mechanical Rhythm]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIrjgE2-C-s Tragic Decision]], and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug6B7c_Xut8 The God-Slaying Sword]], which are all battle themes at various parts of the game; [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAW4xlbyu28 Engage the Enemy]], which makes a perfect accompaniment to some of the more tragic cut-scenes; and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xweRl4LZlmo Guar Plains]], which plays on the expansive Bionis' Leg.
** To say nothing of [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWfyxPVdH50 Satorl, the Shimmering Marsh]], which is half the reason nobody goes through the Satorl Marsh during the day if they can help it.

* AwesomeMusic abounds in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV''. Take [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqE8M2ZnFL8 the main game's theme]], [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vwk_DKY0pnI The Lost and Damned main theme]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTYEXej9Kv0 The Ballad of Gay Tony's main theme]].
* Dead Space has a knack for remixing ''nursery rhymes'' into disturbing music. Examples are [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRXQsQKGqIU Twinkle Twinkle]] and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16MdwEb_EGs Ring Around The Rosie]]
* In ''VideoGame/SaintsRowTheThird'', you undertake a mission to seize a penthouse crib from the Syndicate.
