Patient Gamers
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

In no particular order or genre:
- Rise of the Triad 2013
- Bullets per Minute
- Anything made by PixelJunk (currently enjoying Eden and Shooter soundtracks)
- Bomb Rush Cyberfunk
- Far too many games on the Dreamcast to remember them all, but I will specifically call out Rezs' Level 5 Adam Freeland - Fear is the Mindkiller
- Distance
- DJ Max
World of Warcraft
Some which come to mind are:
- Bastion
- Lost Eden
- Duke Nukem 3D
- Flatout 2
- System Shock
- Arcanum ...
But there are probably a lot more which I have played and are great.
Warhammer 40k: Darktide has some absolute fucking bangers:

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's entire soundtrack is also a masterpiece but just to share a few:

Risk of Rain 2, by Chris Chris, is such a fucking bop! I particularly recommend The raindrop that fell to the sky and The rain formerly known as purple
RoR one is good too, but not as much
skyrim might be THE greatest soundtrack of all time
fallout 1 and 2 (and new vegas as it reuses the soundtrack) are really cool and eerie. fallout 3 and 4 are good too
i quite enjoyed the soundtrack for south of midnight
also, this next one isnt an official soundtrack made for the game but a collection of good songs. but madden 10 has probably the most ludicrously stacked soundtrack ive ever heard for a sports game
Going through the lists everyone has posted I realized I’m surprised I haven’t seen anything from the Medal of Honor franchise posted. I only ever played Medal of Honor: Frontline because a roommate had it, but it was scored by Michael Giacchino, who also composed the scores for the original Medal of Honor, Medal of Honor: Underground, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault, and Medal of Honor: Airborne. Giacchino won awards for the first four soundtracks in the series and it was his video game work that caught J. J. Abrams’s attention and led to him scoring Alias and Lost, starting his TV and movie career.
Also, if you enjoy soundtracks, you might like StreamingSoundtracks.com. It’s been around since 2001 and features soundtracks from movies, tv shows, and video games. It’s a free streaming radio service with the playlist queued by listeners along with limits on how frequently any track can be played, so you won’t hear repeats very often. A manager at a past job played it most days. One year someone took advantage of the “No repeats” rules and played all the horror tracks throughout October so that on Halloween there were basically no horror tracks available, angering many when they realized what had happened. I found it one of the more impressively planned and executed pranks I’ve personally witnessed.
For entire OSTs: any of the FromSoft soulslikes, Lies of P, Diablo 2 + Lord of Destruction, any Monster Hunter game really (especially the ones in Pokke village, so Freedom 2 and Freedom Unite/Portable 2nd G), Hollow Knight, currently enjoying Ridge Racer's (PSP) soundtrack for working out, Deltarune and Undertale, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and Bboy the Game for some perfect-vibe licensed music...
Disco Elysium's is my current favourite OST, but the game itself might also just be current favourite game.
As for individual tracks, I like the Spanish guitar portion of "The Drive/First Contact" off the RE4 soundtrack. Back when I started out with breaking ("breakdance"), think 2008/9ish, we had a remix of that specific part of the song that would play often - I've got very fond memories of that. The song itself, its remixes and the remake versions actually are some of my favourite running music for the gym.
Here's the remix in question if anyone's interested: https://youtu.be/SMWV-3pbcLE
As for one favourite individual song from each of the aforementioned OSTs:
- Hunter's Dream (Bloodborne)
- Shadow Flower (Lies of P)
- Rogue (Diablo 2) + Lord of Destruction intro
- Pokke Village theme (MH Freedom 2/Unite/Generations (Ultimate)) and Mizutsune theme (first fought in Generations)
- Mantis Lords (Hollow Knight)
- Rotterdam Nation - Remix (Ridge Racer)
- Ruins (Undertale) and My Castle Town (Deltarune)
- I'm a Swing It by House of Pain or Ace of Spades by Motörhead (THPS3)
- Don't Sweat the Technique by Rakim or Apache by Incredible Bongo Band (Bboy the Game)
This was lots of fun to think about. I hope anyone reading can find something of value here. :)
Sayonara Wild Hearts. The game itself is fantastic, as well. It's basically one big, playable album. One of my favorites.
For anyone that does get the album, I recommend listening to it in game order over album order. Maybe it's just cause I'm most familiar with it while playing the game, but it makes more sense in that order, imo.
not enough Sonic games in here...

Journey
The game is a piece of art and the soundtrack plays a big part of it.
Ape Escape. I think Cryptic Relics is my favorite track but they're all so good. They're all drum and bass bangers.
The answer is always Chrono Trigger.
30 years later, and still nothing has topped it. No game even comes close.
Shadowrun Hong Kong, and Ronin, the game on Steam with the chick and motorcycle helmet. There is also an app called Kingturn RPG that rocks. Oh and I almost forgot the best one of all, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance.
Shovel Knight.
Outstanding compositions and Famitracker work by Virt.
Subnautica - Simon Chylinski Absolutely crushed that soundtrack. Perfectly set vibe for that game.
Chrono Cross OST is probably one of the best sound tracks I've ever heard and still listen to regularly.
Same with most Zelda soundtracks. Wind Waker especially had an amazing OST.

Linked elsewhere.
Surprised no one mentioned Kingdom Hearts. Everything Shimomura Yōko turns to gold! (I have since noticed the comment saying the same thing)
MDK 2 Main theme has been rocking in my mp3 folder since the release of the game. And I just have unlocked core memory by listening Tanker Theme. Thanks for making me recall all these tunes!
