Screwattack top ten video game themes

[TheKnightsOfGaming99]

Mega Man III opening? where you be? T_T

[rabapab23]

Can anyone tell me the name of the song playing at 0:40?? Thanks :)

[ghosterkiller987]

my two favorite theme's is dr willy and zelda

[ryan9169]

Generic choices.

[nelko36]

yeah man zelda rules!

[LiquidSnack]

Guys this was years ago, Stop complaining and It was voted/consolidated by the staff themselves so if your song wasn't on the list don't be a bitch and cry about it, It's just that more people like those on the list (on screwattack)

[Pharoahfreak]

But what about Simon's Theme from Super Castlevania 4

[donbasuradenuevo]

Still would add the Double Dragon theme and the River City Ransom boss battle.

[BubblemanFTW]

also where is NES ninja gaiden stage 4-2

[BubblemanFTW]

where is still alive from portal?

[Kyperz412]

at 00:58 what game is that?

[RUKKU5]

@Kyperz412 Act Raiser

[Kyperz412]

@RUKKU5 thanks for that

[TheRyujinLP]

@Kyperz412 ActRiser, the first one good sir. Go, get it, play and enjoy yourself. Just be warned though. After playing classics like this, once you go back to most current gen games you will suddenly realise why they suck so much comparied to classic games like this.

[Laterrieu]

I agree zelda Music is the best, but i guess this top needs some Metal Gear Solid Music

[thaov100]

i nominate NES Ninja Gaiden 1's stage 5-3. 

[chirpy13]

Holy crap, I never knew you could kill those things with the bubble lead.

[vampricyoda]

I'm sorry bros. But if we're talking video game music Super Mario Brothers needed to be number one. Even if you aren't a fan that sound IS what people think of when they think of video game music.



[Ezio3946]

no question; zelda theme is the best, but come on.where was mgs2's theme?

[UncleSchwarz]

Hm, i liked Crashmans Theme more. But Nothing beats Pluto + Sunstar from Megaman V :D Was such a great game.

[BBTManiac]

this video gave me goosebumps

[darrius13sniper]

Marios should'v been number 2.

[dyldragon1]

I HATE Secret Of Mana!!!!!!!!!!

[shadowsparks1]

No Chrono Trigger? Wind Scene definitely deserves a spot here.

[FOOLZSTUDIOS]

#2 is my anthem

I AM MEGA MAN

HERES MY MEGAPLAN

YOU DIE!!!

[Clitestar16]

jungle hijinx from Donkey Kong country was the best of that game

[scottski02]

I would add The Maw from Halo 1, and replace the Zelda theme with Gerudo Valley, and the Ninja Gaiden theme, but otherwise awesome list.

[catsithx]

Nintendo had teh best music for their games.

[SuperArmageddon1]

hey what the fuck no mute city O.o wow

[LuigiScatman360]

green hill zone is my favorite

[atolson9138]

Hell yeah Zelda!!

[Creepified]

Glad to see Green Hill Zone there. The Sonic series as a whole has some of the greatest gaming music.

[fireredtrainer01]

some of the best music EVER is in this video-especially the song in the credits.

[sonicisback1]

1:42 more like ECTH IT IN UR MOTHER FUCKIN FOREHEAD

[gfunkel200]

wow i can still remember the exact day when i beat donkey kong as a kid. Its crazy how these games stick with you even as you grow up to be an adult.

[Forgottenmemoriez]

i liked FFX battle theme :)

[MrBoxreviews]

WHERE IS GUILES THEME?!

[porterwake]

Sephiroth theme #1? Uh no...

[MandTplaythroughs]

By the way people, its their opinion if you would like to state your opinion thats fine but dont call them the dumbassess because you dont agree with them

[MandTplaythroughs]

Honestly the only thing i would add would have to be the end theme of simons quest

[kozole100]

why isnt super mario bros

the top 1 on the list

[Mrluigifan]

metal gear solid theme and fragrance of dark coffe(godots theme) number 2 and there

[Horrorfreak106]

BLOODY TEARS FROM CASTLEVANIA! Thumbs up if u think that should of been on the list! It should of been number one. NOt zelda.

[Wakaboo14]

@Horrorfreak106 Not even close. Definitely Zelda.

[moanhunter]

HALO that is all i need to say.

[Seanage93]

Legend of Zelda music will always be numba one. I think Sonic shoulda been higher than Mario, though.

[darkman3645]

Kind of Disappointed that the Killer Instinct theme wasn't on there, or anyting from Castlevania however I wasn't the one who created the list. I would disagree with the Duck Tails Moon Theme however since while a fun game, I wouldn't call the music great. Not surprised by Sonic, Mario, Final Fantasy or Zelda though. But as he said in the beginning, everyone would have their own top 10.

[1337ijs]

Swap Duke's Grabbag and Secret of Mana's spots, then replace Secret of Mana's song with the Halo CE theme. And add Killzone 3's main theme as number 11. The only changes I'd make.

[ScReWaTtAcKeD]

@1337ijs The theme is classic dumbass

[kingofmonsters14]

mine is Dearly Beloved from Kingdom Hearts, it's been the main title screen theme since the original and my personal fave out of that has to be the Birth by Sleep version. just take a listen.

[stefanski48]

One of the best top 10's ive ever seen. Gj guys. Although I believe a Zelda song should be rank one there are better ones from the series then the theme song. Song of Healing from Majoras Mask would be my number one. Youtube Gibdo Mask and then tell me you dont agree.

[FierceDeityGabriel]

Why the hell is duke nukem up there?

[Linksapprentice100]

duke nukem? really? so just because it's "badass" makes it worthy for a number 3 spot?

[TheMasterDru]

I hoped that Fever from Dr. Mario was going to be in this

[dejahuu]

dude that Mega Man theme got me pumped up

[owensentis]

where's the Mortal Kombat theme

[thebutterbeanchannel]

@Matorothehedgehog we dont hate you. You are completely entitled to your own opinion

[jribaudo7]

Music is just that awesome. I just wish donkey kong was higher on the list...and it had dkc2: either stickerbrush symphony or forest interlude. Both those songs blew my mind when i first heard them...

[AgentZombieMan]

I was hoping for Mortal Kombat, but after watching the video, I knew that it didn't belong

[olinar90]

i found Secret of Evermore to be MUCH better than Secret of Mana...

mainly because you don't have to do all that grinding

[knucklesfan8]

I completely saw Green Hill zone being the Sonic one.

[sonicsaiyan07]

Mega Man 7 Intro Stage

[Mrwinnerguy]

Terra's theme from final fantasy 6!

[MrHugawookie]

My favorite theme is Aquarium Park on Sonic Colors. Great to run to.

[KireektheAndroid]

Definitely not a bad list, but I'm surprised there is no Ninja Gaiden music on here. Ninja Gaiden II The Dark Sword of Chaos on the NES had great music, pretty much all around, Stage 1-1 and 2-3 (Midnight Runner and The Parasprinter) were great peices of music.

[grannybenson]

No chrono trigger or street fighter music? I CALL SHENANIGANS!

[nejikath]

for me, the best zelda is a link to the past. I just needed to say it.

[WoWvideohunters]

@nejikath agreed i found link to the past much better then the first. but meh

[nejikath]

@WoWvideohunters Anyway.

[The212b]

Earthbound Zero was the first game to have a soundtrack ya know why is this not in here

[JacobAskren1]

were is chrono trigger corridors of time in here?

[BigIsBig453]

@NativeEagle7 is there a playthrough on youtube?

[metroidfan222]

fuck greenhill zone i fucking hate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,...but it always gets to me and i end up humminh to it XD

[Djstudiosgold]

Will everybody stop complaining that there's no Mortal Kombat, Castlevania or even fucking Ace Attorney? They said at the start: Everybodys list is different

[SDundee09]

no halo 2 or mortal kombat?

[darklinkpwns]

2:12 rubber fruit anyone?

[thegamer549]

well green hill zone shoulda been higher IMO, and if they had made this list more recently they shoulda had the music from the last mission of red dead redemption undead nightmare, but still a good list

[BigIsBig453]

wtf is secret of mana?

[NativeEagle7]

@BigIsBig453 it is a video game where you get a sword that has like a soul

[MrSupahnin10doh]

Not to sound like a annoying fanboy but I can't say I'm not slightly disappointed that the halo main theme didn't make it :/ eh oh well

[TheRealNathanStanley]

Wow... Pretty damn right. Zelda on top, mario prob shouldve been 2nd and sonic should've been a little up the list but none the less. Pretty good

[MrGC9]

wow, zelda is the winner even in the music

[bigkriem]

I lold at your lolazer shirt:D

[josan14basket]

cave story?

[BigIsBig453]

2=Utoruuman 7! Yay!

1=Close to every music based game i know contains it! I agree!

[Favielrerio]

Contra's music, all the stages and the boss music

[AngelFlame1994]

I knew zelda was going 2 be number 1 HANDS DOWN!

[linkzelda98]

were was baby bowser theme?!?

[highestpower999]

ZELDA!!!

If only there could be 2 themes from the games, im sure Dark World from ALTTP would be there too

[Crunchycrunchysmooth]

Motherfucker Mike was in the credits!!

[merviper]

Napoleon and empire total war both have extremely power music themes. I think that the guy who composed Napoleon's got an award for it.

[waterlemons46]

I really liked this list, I just wish it wasn't so predictable.

[yoduh8681]

i bet this was the hardest top ten to narrow down period.

[Leishmaniasisably]

One that should be here is the Tetris theme...

[Leishmaniasisably]

Love all these.

[johnfreeman999]

The music makes sonic what it is, honestly.

[sledgehammer1994]

live n learn anybody? plus am i the only one who jizzed a little at rhe last one?

[shyfyre11]

@ SuperLuigiBros1

Nope sonic is awesome!!! Or in his words... "Rad to the Max!!"

[RadioTails]

I still don't like it when Craig says the Mega Drive / Genesis didn't do well in the sound department. For the sound effects, I agree. The BGM however, that's not quite true since there are plenty of Mega Drive games with good music and even some that did better than the SNES like Earthworm Jim.

Still, a great list. At least one of my picks got in. The "Green Hill" theme from Sonic 1.

[Wieprzow]

i expected the jungle jam from contra to be the winner, what a disappointment

[linkzelda98]

no doom theme WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ablegrim]

SKYYRIIIIIIM!

Sorry. I just had to... it's the law

[keeperxiii]

No Chrono Trigger theme? It pwns.

[ryan9169]

@keeperxiii 0:45

[keeperxiii]

@ryan9169 Yeah, I know :P I know. I just really love that song :P

[keeperxiii]

Kratos cried once while listening to the Bubble Bobble song.

[FTKBuster7]

If ScrewAttack did this again, I can honestly see Guile's theme being in the top 3. Since it goes with everything lol

[goldenweegee007]

where is bloody tears from castlevania 2 simons quest, the tetris type a theme and the contra theme

[screenON14]

@goldenweegee007 on YOUR list if you make one =)

[Pai3000]

I completely agree with the list. I would recognize every score just from the first note. However, a TOP25 would be much more interesting.

[WolfenNights]

Needs more Earthbound and Fire Emblem.

[maiden0206]

did anyone else notice mario humping the pole?

[GamingandMetal6]

how can there be no castlevania music, some of the best on the nes

[Peeks24]

Kondo sorry

[Peeks24]

Koji London FTW

[philwelzy]

dead space :) the music scares the crap out of you and when you hear that woman singing twinkle twinkle little start......i had to stop playing lol

[APooOnAStick]

Im surprised the Pallet Town theme from Pokemon Red and Blue wasn't here. Its the first song that most kids in the late 90s heard in a game. And its fucking epic!

[kjharkhark24]

um the ending music is actually number 1 so yeah

[TheBrandonRegan]

Oh and Star Fox is awesome too...

[TheBrandonRegan]

I callbullshit on the Supermetriod theme choice, the song when the guys says ''the last metriod is in captivity....'' is by far the better choice!

Also no Ghosts and Goblins?

But most importantly, NO ZOMBIES ATE MY NEIGHBOURS??????? That has one of the greatest soundtracks ever!!!

[Blitzfrenzy78]

I'm sorry but Halo 1 and 2 theme song blows this selection of themes out of the water.

[heyja9]

starfox corneria, seriously search this song in youtube and tell me its not amazing

[sonicthesexmachine]

this list is great, but i thought for sure emerald hill would be sonics song instead of green hill. I love green hill but emerald hill was kick ass

[sneaselboy]

my favourate theme is probabley either Song of Healing (Zelda: Majora's Mask) or classic zelda theme (zelda. duh). My fave version of the zelda theme is DEFINATLEY the Four Swords Adventures title screen, it is so calm and peaceful, but still holding that awesome classic theme fell. Song of healing is tieing with zelda theme.

Zelda = Best music EVAR (in my opinion)

Zelda = alittle overated (please give credit to unknown games too) but it sorta diservses the fame; great gameplay, awesome music.

[microblan]

Notice how besides Duke Nuke'm , All the video game themes are frrom the OLDSHCOOL ERA.... sigh todays games.....

[SaxonWR]

There cant be a top 10, top 100... maybe, and i use that VERY loosely (it would be closer to a thousand than 10)

[SuperStriker404]

they shud have had promise (repprise) from silent hill

[Golden7Ghost]

i luv zelda i completely agree

[cortster12]

Zelda is the best

[SuperLuigiBros1]

@cortster12 Zelda gets enough damn credit, am i the only sonic fan anymore!?!?

[mangum1300]

@cortster12 dont spoll it

[shuasoul]

Bloody Tears

[1kevin32]

@edlikesbrigette yep, I played the journey to silius, very good music.

[oriramu]

tch..vectorman's theme should have made it up here..heck alot of themes for greater games should have made the list..fuck..dr wily's theme from megaman 2..fucking serious =_=..weird song made me LMAO..

[Goregrinding]

@oriramu

Well thats just like you opinion bro ........

[oriramu]

and what your might be.?

[RipYourSpineOut]

@oriramu

"That's the thing about music: There IS no right or wrong list- I mean YOUR list is going to be different from pretty much everyone else's in the ENTIRE WORLD! So don't be a bitch..." -Stuttering Craig

[oriramu]

=_=..hm..forgot where I was going with this..you're missing the point

[AnarickTheDevil]

@RipYourSpineOut witch no one even listened to because there to being idiotic fanboys that piss and moan about there favorite not being chosen.

[EMG81JSX]

The Super Metroid theme is NOT that great, and definitely not worthy of top 10 of all time. Where the hell is Guile's Theme?!?? or Bloody Tears from Castlevania 2??? or Batman on the NES?? These guys were way off on this list, i'm disappointed for once.

[metalica09]

fillmore from actraiser?

[MakzLazor555]

OMG THX START AT 7:19 AND ENDS AT 10:18 !!!!!!!!

[GlobalCrisisMaker]

where is ''the shard''? MIRRORS EDGE FTW, IM STILL WAITING FOR THE SEQUEL!!!

[AndromadaStarFource]

Where's Mother Brain's theme? I think it should be #1 or 2.

[shakenmikeg14]

where is halo?

[Sabin06]

oh my goodness that theme song for Mega man I havent played it in a long time and I had that song in my head that one day. lol wow

[TheJimmys11]

LOLAZER

[uberninja228]

BUCK BUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you said it was more addictive (in a bad way) than duck tales

[dragonninjaguy]

snake eater ? anyone

[chuggafan3000]

no dialga fight music from pokemon mystery dungeon 2 or geno's forest song from super mario RPG D: D: D:

[ImUrDoppelganger]

How come they didn't choose any castlevania? I knew it's opinions and crap but castlevania should automatically make any list

[williamXjoslin]

Symphony of the night has the best sound track.

[AssassinoXBL]

No castlevania sound :( no vampirekiller or bloody tears this top 10 is crap ;)

[Xeivous]

I think Doomsday Zone and/or starlight zone beats Green Hill

[Xeivous]

Ninja Gaiden songs are beast too

[64impalazr1]

Zelda ocorina of time numer 1. You,my good sir stuttering craig, made my day

[xxFortunadoxx]

Wow. I disagree with just about every entry on this list. However I think that's the point of lists like these.

[wejw14]

quake?, doom? half life? okay maybe not half life but quake and doom definetly should had a place in this top ten, hell "Nine Inch Nails" did the music for quake!

[wordpresslikewierd]

anybody else notice that duke nukem looks somewhat like Arnold Swarchinegger in the terminators?

[Djstudiosgold]

To everybody who is bitching about MK's theme and even more so still alive

Have you ever thought that screwattack didn't want music with LYRICS? Y'know, things that are completely instrumental and didn't sound like it was made by a professional musician?

[monkeykiller360]

I thought there would be at least one of the pokemon themes (legendary encounter, elite 4, mt silver) and I really wanted "cornered" from ace attorney to make it. Ah well still a good list

[draconite420]

9 people bitches

[Skyrift]

I really think that "Metroid remix" audio they use for the ScrewAttack theme should get a honorable mention...I love that music!

Others that I enjoyed include the final stage from Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, M. Bison's stage theme from SFII, "Taking to the Air" from Terminator (SegaCD), and damn near anything from the Castlevania franchise.

[dshaw898989]

Metal Gear 

[Nova1Duke]

Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow - Castle Corridor :DDDD

[chaparro212]

WHERE THE FUCK IS WIND SCENE FROM CHRONO TRIGGER!!!

[thatasiankid45]

@chaparro212 ITS THEIR FUCKING LIST!

[SirMelonHead]

People need to stop bitching about the following 5 game soundtracks not being on this list.

Kingdom Hearts

Castlevania

Silent Hill

Mortal Combats gay ass main theme

And stupid fucking Still Alive from Portal

[Djstudiosgold]

@SirMelonHead I fully agree with you! But you forgot phoenix wright in your list

[Galaga135]

@SirMelonHead Like he said, everyone's list will be different... it's opinion. I personally think that Marvel Vs. Capcom 1 and X-Men: Children of Atom have the best soundtracks, along with the Touhou Project series.

[TalesOfGod]

Anyone know what the song at the end is called? The one where people are singing?

[92SoMaLu92]

@TalesOfGod song name is: Joe Esposito - You're the Best

[BlackenedThorn]

I highley dissagree with th last choice.

I love Legend of Zelda.

But WHERE THE HELL IS THE INTRO THEME TO THE FIRST SILENT HILL??

[unbornsonic0]

lol i just watched karate kid totally didnt expect that song at the end

[lokitaru]

Wait, Wait, Wait.... they actualy went thru the entire 15,000 fucking people who voted?! JESUS i feel bad for u guys

/comfort
