i'd like this to be a parallel thread to HD5000's "best game ever" thread, although centered around the best game music and sound effects instead of playability.
if you were to suggest a game for someone to buy based on music, what would it be? on sound effects, what would it be?
anyone who has ever played FF7 will likely love the music in that game.
i found Wipeout 2 and Wipeout 4 had some very good tracks; others may prefer Forsaken on the N64 or Descent on the PC. i even looked for a Wipeout: Fusion soundtrack and couldn't find it.
my nominations:
PS1: Disruptor. The only game where the faster you go, the faster the music. if you slow down, the music slows down. the 'snicks' of changing weapons is awesome as is the 'twang bellows' sound which gives your speakers a nice workout. once i started playing it with headphones i became a wuss. yeah i admit it.
anyone play PS1's "Silent Hill" with headphones? or Aliens vs. Predator 1 or 2 with cans?
for the N64, I nominate 007: Goldeneye. the reason all other James Bonds games have failed is because of the music. IMHO.
and of course N64's "Turok" has awesome sound effects. I just can't stand Turok 2, 3, et. al.'s wimpy "I am Turok" and find them unplayable because of it.
and the opposite: Mortyr (PC) supposedly has absolutely no music. And I find myself turning off the music in the PS's Air Combat series.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and on a similar train of thought, has anyone else ever redubbed a movie with your own selection of music? (GE 1101P or Apex 500?)
i once laid a hip-hop/dance track to the silent film "Wings". i can very easily see a trance/eurodance soundtrack to "Wings". Has anyone ever dubbed Ray Milland's totally silent film to music?
