Nope, you’re all wrong.

Clearly this:

Correct.

Ooh, I know. How about:

“Still Alive” from the end of Portal.

Turns out we’re all incorrect.

top 100 games “in no particular order”
eh? You can’t post a top 100 then not do it in order.

Rollcage, hmm sure I had that on ps1, don’t remember playing it tho.

RE: Ken’s theme. According to the composer, she had seen Top Gun, but hadn’t deliberately ripped it off.

Xenon 2, Monkey Island and Portal all get props from me.

But for sheer bleepy goodness that’s been in my head on and off for 20+ years:

If you like the theme from Tetris, then try this hardcore version played on accordian:
Ed Cox – Hardcordian – Tetris theme

and if you like that, do check out The triumphant march of Piaf.

Bioshock – brilliant soundtrack suiting a brilliant game like a glove.

Castlevania IV (Title music) on Super Famicom (SNES) gets my vote though.

i have to apologise in my original post i should have added a wink smilie.

was joking tbh about the daytona music (i do love it’s ott vocals though 🙂

Very long easy left maybe!

First thoughts when i read the title were Chiller on C64 (really bad Thriller rip off) which was nothing special, but i remember the music over 30 years later so it was doing something right. Agony on the Amiga 500 is another that’s hard to forget.

We’ve got the Portal: Still Alive song covered by the London Philharmonic Orchestra; it’s brilliant!

We had a tune from Skyrim played during our wedding, which was nice.

Although I’m surprised no-one has suggested this:

Being over 40, any computer music has to be actual music generated by the computer.

I grew up on the C64 so all those mentioned so far are classics – especially Crazy Commets.

I’m amazed this thread has got so far and no-one has mentioned:

Which is just bonkers. No intro for a game has ever set the game up so wonderfully. I mean, listen to it- I’m cruising Liberty City in my mind, right now….
