Halo 3 Original Soundtrack (2-CD Set)

CD-Charts > Music > Anime and Video Game Soundtracks
from: Sumthing Else

Release Date November 20, 2007
The above title describes what you say while playing the game after listening to this CD. Pretty soon you'll be freaking out your buddies by mock conducting it and saying dun dun da-da-da-daaa dun to the tune. Besides that, the music is awesome! Great orchestral music in a great FPS (First Person Shooter for you non-gamers) If you're thinking "Video game music? There's a CD for that now?" You are the biggest n00b in history.

Mass Effect Original Game Soundtrack

CD-Charts > Music > Anime and Video Game Soundtracks
from: Sumthing Else

Release Date November 20, 2007
Mass Effect is a beautiful game.

So it could be assumed that the soundtrack of the game is beautiful as well. And beautiful it is. The soundtrack is nothing more than what you'd expect: the music--ambient or otherwise--from the game.

But, being an avid soundtrack purchaser, I have to say that I was a bit disappointed with this as compared with the soundtracks from the three Halo games, because each track is only as long as a single run through that track would be in game. This means that you'll burn through the soundtrack in about an hour, maybe less.

Regardless, it's still a piece I'd recommend to fans of the game, and goes great in the background as you read the book, as well.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots

CD-Charts > Music > Anime and Video Game Soundtracks
from: Sony

Release Date June 03, 2008
This is one of the best soundtracks I have heard in a while, and that includes movie soundtracks. If you are a fan of The Bourne Identity/Supremacy/Ultimatum soundtracks, written by the brilliant British composer John Powell, you will absolutely love this one. It's in the same vein. 2 hours and 20 minutes of intense action-packed music marked by tribal drumming and eerie overtones will have you on the edge of your seat, be it at your desk or on the highway doing triple digits. Not for the faint of heart! This can safely be filed under "Buy or die."

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Original Soundtrack

CD-Charts > Music > Anime and Video Game Soundtracks
from: Sony/Columbia

Release Date December 27, 2004
After buying "Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence" early in 2007, I was treated to one of the best gaming experiences in recent times. There was one aspect of it that stood out to me: the music. The music was emotional, engaging and not just a little bit movie-like in quality.

Deciding that I wanted to be able to listen to the songs over and over again, I bought the soundtrack to Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (which is essentially the same game, just without extra features) in June.

My impressions didn't change: the music was just as good, if not better played on CD. Harry-Gregson Williams and Norihiko Hibino are the main composers here, with a few vocal tracks done by artists either hired exclusively ... Read More:

I bought this soundtrack expecting to find hits from the eighties whose performers were unknown for me. I used to know some songs but not who was singing them, and I think I got what I expected.
