Favorite Menu Music in a Game

Krush, baby.

I wish someone had uploaded a good version of it out there but all I see are annoying Achievement-whore videos showing off "how to get The Musician achievement for ilomilo" -.- 
 
  

This

and this. Find another game with cool as spy music in the menus.

@ZeForgotten: To be fair aside from the end it was nice to see it in action :)

Been hearing a LOT of this one lately.

The Witcher 2 main theme is probably my favourite right now. So epic.

Easily:

Nothing else comes close.

The fuck, people... how could this take till the third page?

The Metal Gear Solid games have some awesome title-screen music. 3 didn't have any, but if it did it would have kicked ass.

Oh, and God of War games usually have excellent main menu music. Especially 2 & 3, where I would often scroll up and down the menu options in tune to the theme.

goosebumps

I could sit and listen to the Enslaved menu for hours... it's so relaxing.

Mafia 2 had an incredible menu theme, from what I remember.

I could post plenty more, but I'll end it with one of my personal favourites... Assassin's Creed: Revelations.

Videogame music really has come into its own. I think it sets a higher bar than movies do, at this point.

Kingdom Hearts - Dearly Beloved wins this one.

Alot of my favourites have already been posted (ME1, Skyrim.) But there's so many amazing themes! Love the Left 4 Dead 2 themes, but this one stands out for me.

This one is just nostalgia for me though

since someone already posted witcher 2's music, here's my other current favorite:

This sounds really similar to something. I can't quite place it.

Oh yeah MGS4's menu theme is awesome too! Gives me chills every time.

Portal 2 has a couple of menu themes all of which are really good, but the first is still my favorite.

ignore

There are so many good title menu music that has already been mentioned, but for some reason this popped out of my head first:

The beginning of it sounds like Zelda.

Saints Row 3 or one of the Total War games.

I think pretty much any of the title screen music from the original Sonic games. They're incredibly catchy and I never get tired of hearing them.

some of my favorites

@connerthekewlkid: I thought I'd get made fun of for posting that one but I agree, it's awesome. :D

@BabyChooChoo: Can't believe I didn't think to post the Unreal Tournament theme, one of the most memorable menu songs for sure.

The LA Noire menu theme is spectacular, especially when played along with Rainy Mood.

The best and when I say the best I mean the worst.

I love these two themes.

+1

Krush, baby.

Fuck yes, chill shit, wish it was playing throughout the entire game.

I really enjoy The Witcher 2's menu music as mentioned earlier. Although, Metroid Prime's menu music brings back some great memories.

Edit: Totally forgot about Batman Arkham City, I absolutely loved that music. Fit wonderfully with the game.

@JeanLuc: god yes the dragon age one was so good

I keep coming back to Bastion music. Always great!

This song makes me damn pumped.

I'm glad to see some attention for GC2, I loved the Ground Control series. Too bad you couldn't play as the Imperials...

For the old school PC crowd, I bring you One Must Fall 2097

@Giantstalker said:

Yes, this! :o

I spent far too much time just sitting at the main menu and listening to this instead of actually playing the game >_>

When I think back to games I really enjoyed over my lifetime I realize, not alot of them have menu music that I remember. But this game's menu music still gives me chills when I hear it.

Five pages and no Thousand-Year Door?

NBA Jam Tournament Edition

I really like the one for the first Kingdom Hearts me.  Im a sucker for stuff like that....  I think its the Japanese side of me that shows up when I hear songs like that

@Timing: I hate you. When I read "menu music," the Thousand Year Door song pops into my head. I just went to every page of this thread, and thought I would have the honor of posting the single greatest main menu song of all time. YOU STOLE THAT HONOR FROM ME.

Second place has to be Mega Man 2, and then Final Fantasy IX, and Kingdom Hearts is definitely up there... all taken! What is a BoG to do?

I'll just share a recent favorite:

Easily the menu music from Persona 4. I am a bigger fan of P3 FES, but I love A Corner of Memory from P4.

Still some of my favorite music from the whole series.

It's hard for me to choose any one favourite, however I do think that Osmos and Crayon Physics have some of the best ambient menu music, ever.

Oh, and God of War games usually have excellent main menu music. Especially 2 & 3, where I would often scroll up and down the menu options in tune to the theme.

Guys, guys, guys.

GUYS.

We're forgetting the most obvious one right now.

GUISE

PERSONA 4 MENU THEME

It's either this...

Orr... Medal of Honor: Frontline. Someone already posted that one in the thread though.
