Tell Us Dammit

Dammit, we want you to tell us stuff! Stuff like what’s your all-time favourite game soundtrack?

This isn’t some marketing survey or whatever. It’s an emotional investment in you. Yes, we’re interesting in knowing you, Kotaku reader person. You probably know enough about us — more than you even want to, we’re sure. But, hey, we’d like to know about you, too.

Anyway, here’s today’s question…

What’s your favourite game soundtrack? Do you listen to game music on its own? Do you buy game soundtracks?

Me? I’ve bought a few over the years. Always loved the Ico, Metroid Prime and Mass Effect soundtracks, all of which I own. But the best surely has to be Akira Yamaoka’s work on the Silent Hill series. Mesmerising in its restraint, yet always imbued with a glacial menace, each game’s score is a thing of unnerving beauty. He’ll be sorely missed.

Oh, and “Forest” off the Silent Hill 2 soundtrack is perhaps my favourite. Though “A World of Madness” comes close.

Feel free to share links to your favourites.
