    Ripper Roo brb making the bed

    Made by Stewart Copeland of The Police fame. Absolutely magical and mystical tunes. These games came out years before I was born but I still played them as a kid anyway so these transport me back to simpler times. They’re still bangers even without the nostalgia factor though. Honestly all 3 original Spyro games have great soundtracks, but Spyro 2 is probably the best.

    Yoko Shimomura laced crack in these themes man, this score on top of the Florence + The Machine cover of Stand By Me that plays in the beginning and end of the game (where the lyrics directly tie into the story) makes it really special and emotionally resonant in a game I loved despite it's many flaws.

    This sounds awfully like a man who doesn't know how talented game composers are

    I want to give a shoutout to Tim Follin who was out here making masterpieces for terrible shovelware games during the NES/SNES days

    Me neither but it could definitely be a plus, I don't have many soundtracks saved but i think a lot of videogame songs are more kinetic without usually having lyrics in a way that makes them easier to listen to while studying or something like that which is primarily when i listen to them. I obviously go to more traditional music first unless something is REALLY stuck in my head like this b-----r

    I’ll watch anything with Margot in it. Couldn’t finish it though.

    And GTA San Andreas and V have some cool soundtracks. 50’s games also. And Need For Speed Underground 2, the original game from back in the days :Em6:
