  1. It’s hard for me to pick a perfect or favorite video game soundtrack/score. The music aspect of games is really half the experience if your zoning it out while playing I think then that would I think lessen the enjoyment of said game.

    I loved JRPG scores like Crono Trigger, Final Fantasy, and Suikoden. The emotional attachment that I feel with many of the scores in those games made it that much more a memorable experience to me.
