Skyrim is wonderful, but some of the best epic music in my opinion is from a group called Two Steps from Hell. Weird name, but absolutely amazing orchestral music you can swashbuckle to
If you like Skyrim's soundtrack, you should listen to War of the Vikings soundtrack, very similar and equally beautiful.I bought Skyrim about two months ago and still can't get it's main theme out of my head. The entire score is absolutely beautiful, moving and just so kickass with it's choral chants. It really catches your imagination and lets you just lose yourself in the world of Tamriel. This has to be my favourite game soundtrack that I have heard.
Secret of Mana songs still get stuck in my head, especially #4 on this top ten list.
That must be the song they played when my brother, my friend and I killed wolves to level up. The term "grinding" wasn't invented in the early 90s as far as I know, but that's what we were doing.
I'm not sure what you call healing people in a hotel room until you're out of mana so you can level up water magic. I was guilty of that one.
My brother, my friend next door and I played through the game during Christmas vacation. We played straight through for 4 days, but Hotel Healing[SUP]TM[/SUP] was my day 1 discovery. Once Moon Magic came into play, the faerie walnuts were MINE!... except when an owl reversed Mana Steal, then we had to give one up for the sprite.I think everyone was guilty of that once you figured out it was possible.
You wanna talk about great game soundtracks? I just finished playing 'Bastion' and dayum, that's a good ost. The ambience some of the tracks give to the levels is amazing, whether it's fast and actiony or slow and mellow. Together with the game itself being amazing and those were two days well spent.
On a separate note: This is pretty much the sound of my childhood…
