Best OST?
| Neotokyo has a really good one. Which is a shame since the game is kind of middling.
| Like overall ost? Because there's a bunch that have a few songs that really stand out, like Everyday is Night and Your Reality. There's also games like epic battle fantasy 4, Ib, and portal 2. Then there's games like life is strange where you're not sure whether it's the music or just the atmosphere
| Bastion/Transistor.
| Best OST is so hard because the genres of game soundtracks tend to have a little more flexibility to them than movies. The Trails in the Sky series has some pretty great tracks but to really love them you have to hear the themes as they recur throughout various pieces. Silver Will, Hollow Light of the Sealed Land, Castle of Illusion come to mind from the series. And agreed that Portal 2 is definitely a contender. Experimental in all the right ways.
| The original NieR. Okami is a close second, though.
| I really like Starcraft 1's ost.
| Xenoblade Chronicles 2
| First Xenoblade is always good. Kingdom Hearts is high quality too because Yoko Shimomura is a music god. Dark Souls is good for eerie music, but for variety look to the Tales series (Xillia is my personal fave).
Also shout out to anon who's played Okami. That's some primo Japanese music right there.
| Probably anything that involves Akiko Shikata.
| Also, Legend of Zelda should probably go without saying.
| I'm 50/50 between payday 2 and hotline miami 2
| Nier Automata and Kingdom Hearts, those are in my top, but it's kinda hard to say what's my fav OST since there's a lot of awesome soundtracks out there
| Secret of Evermore, no contest.
| NieR:Automata and Dark Souls 3
| The latest Devil May Cry PC game... Combichrist and Noisia! <3
| A little underrated but one of them is Phantasy Star Online's Mining Base Invasion Final wave OST. Pretty good epic music imo
| Sigh, this is why I hate broad terms such as "best bullshit". Can we start clarifying shit please?
Gonna drop TWEWY for best pop vg ost.
| Shadow of the colossus
| This is always a hard question but Chrono Cross always comes to mind. On that note Va-11 Hall-A has one of my favorite soundtracks, Garoad is a god and I hope he does more game music in the future.
| Oneshot and Kingdom Hearts are what comes to mind at the moment.
| Unlikely choice: Sorcerian from the pc98.
| FTL
| Rez, Jet Set Radio, Neotokyo (but not sure if I got the official OST, haven't played the game even)
| Super Mario Galaxy, DEADBOLT, Kirby air ride, and Donkey Kong Country 1-3
| Hotline miami 2
| FINAL FANTASY VII: CRISIS CORE
>ALL HAIL NOBUO UEMATSU
| Tales of Symphonia
| Drakengard is good for when you want to feel like you're in an Industrial Revolution themed nightmare.
For actual music I've been on a RUINER / Hotline Miami kick. Bit of the old ultraviolence.
| All Super Giant Games,Hotline Miami 2,Ori and the Blind Forest,Shadow of the Colossus,Nier Automata
| Highway Blossoms, Binding of Isaac(Flash and Rebirth), The Basement Collection, Paradigm, Skullgirls, LISA

Make sure it's Drakengard 1 or 2.
Drakengard's soundtrack is more n
NieR-styled. I adore it more than Nier or NieR A personally
| Halo's OST is by far my favorite one since I was a kid. Just listen to "Ghosts of Reach", "Under Cover of the Night", "Trapped in Amber", "Moon Over Mombasa pt. 2" or "Charity's Irony" and you'll notice each one is different enough to shine on its own to be memorable but also have something that makes them recognizable and makes you say "This is from Halo".
