Its good to see Timesplitters 2 get a mention.
Also both the Perfect Dark games have great soundtracks in my opinion.

Timesplitters as a series is highly underrated imo. I'm hoping for a remaster/reboot at some point

[Sciurus_vulgaris]

THQ Nordic acquired the Timesplitters IP last year. I hope a Timesplitters remastered trilogy is in the works.

I wasn't a fan of zero, it felt so clunky and character movement was so slow. The OG perfect dark is one of my favorite fps games though

[Sciurus_vulgaris]

I found the controls for Perfect Dark Zero to be a bit annoying, and yes Joanna did move too slow. However, I liked the level design of the campaign. I also enjoyed the playing against bots in Perfect Dark Zero multiplayer.

Yeah I didn't care for Zero for a number of reasons but like you stated the OG 64 one was pretty good for the time. Hell Goldeneye was incredible as well. Rare was on fire back then!

I'd love to rave to Timesplitters Music.

Damn , I miss the Timesplitters series.

Metroid Prime and Half Life 2’s are the best imo.

[Zeegamereh]

Nothing comes close to Halos soundtrack (Halo 1 2 3) it’s perfection

[Unspoken]

Halo is number one but another I liked, especially if remastered, was Republic Commando.

[Nu]

Metroid Prime is one of my favorites because of the music and game design

[AK91]

I actually didn't like the soundtrack of Wolf 2 thought The New Colossus had a far better soundtrack.

[McMahonme7]

You mean The New Order?

[AK91]

*facepalm* yes

[Hardiman]

I'd go with Turok 64, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Halo 1&2, Timeslippers 2 and Metroid Prime.

I believe that add-on for the 2016 Doom has a soundtrack that isfar better than all of these , the soundtrack is titled Doom Sigil & comprised strictly of music written / played by Buckethead

[veicht]

Sigil is a campaign episode mod made by John Romero for the original doom (1993) not doom 2016. The buckethead soundtrack is pretty great though.

[BuildTheWall]

Been years since I've played a Doom game , hell can't remember the last one I played. Can't believe that Sony & Microsoft first consoles are as old as they are , it seems like they are only a couple years old , instead of the first Playstation console releasing 25 years ago December this year & first Xbox console having been released 18 years ago this November.

Rainbow Six Vegas

[NiteX]

Quake 2.

[BrettAwesome]

Borderlands 2 and Rage 2 both have excellent soundtracks

[FanboysKiller]

Black in game musics is a top-notch.

[ITPython]

Perfect Dark had some really awesome styled music. Mysterious and powerful. Still gives me chills thinking back to when I first played the game. Ah, those were the good ol days.
