migryder Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 What is a film or a game without a great musical score? I'm going to start by giving some from games since for most of the late spring and early summer I've been caught up playing two games over n over that both have awesome scores IMO - Just finished BIOSHOCK 2 yet again and boy do I love this one - wish I had it on disc...sometimes run the credits just to hear the music.... Call of Pripyat! man the ambient audio in the Pripyat level is awesome and creepy too... HL2, EP1, EP2....nuff said.... I've been listening to the score from PAINKILLER while driving my truck lately...great heavy metal and great ambient background in those levels....my fav - the music from the TOWN level and from ASYLUM... we all know GR is great.... movies... Once Upon A Time In The West... ADD YOUR FAVS... mig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parabellum Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Age of Conan has a great soundtrack. As does The Witcher. The Faydark Theme from EverQuest II is simply gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai-San Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Barra Barra (Blackhawk Down) Don't know why but this music just fit's so well and is very evocative. Also used in a GR mod to great effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly2442 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Bill Brown created some great pieces for Ghost Recon as well as many of the Rainbow Six games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calius Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Id have to say anything by the composer Thomas Newman. http://www.last.fm/music/Thomas+Newman The reason is i saw films like American Beauty and Shawshank Redemption / Road To Perdition & Revolutionary Road and realised they are great films with superb soundtracks, only to then find out they are all the same composer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
