Top Ten Video Game Songs (#8) Halo - Halo: Combat Evolved

8/10: "Halo" from Halo: Combat Evolved.

Music by Martin O'Donnell

Bungie did an amazing job with this song. I had never heard such an awesome song for an FPS until this came along. It brings back memories every time I hear it of how awesome Halo was.

Surprised Yasunori Mitsuda didn't get on your list at all from xenogears, chrono trigger or chrono cross. Time scar was an amazing piece. Anyways definitely hard to pick from all these songs =)

@Bweemo Yasunori Mitsuda also did the soundtrack for Xenosaga: Episode I, which had some really good music, but I didn't think it quite made it to my list; I preferred Yuki Kajiura's work.

I like the first game because it can stand on its own. But are you rating the music after the game itself or just the music piece?

[QuantumPolagnus]

Truth-be-told, a little of both; although mainly as a musical piece on it's own - it is an awesome song.

Working my way through your game song countdown. If Still Alive isn't at the top, so help me...I'll complain on the internet. Yeah. That'll show you. :P

:) Thanks for the comment.

I seem to be one of the few people who still thinks Halo: Combat Evolved is an awesome game. :(

I don't know why people seem to complain that it's "overrated" or "over-hyped" or whatever.

I hope halo 4 is worth the hype

[gorgolyt]

Great song, poor game.

[mitch13815]

"A walk in the woods" LOOK IT UP!!!!

now THAT should be #1

@QuantumPolagnus hmmmhmmm, i love halo one (or combat evolved) very much. I´m still plaing it, i think because i don´t have an other shooter :D

[Llenlleawg]

I remember smacking down sleeping grunts to this.

Damn, the memories.

1 word : epic:)

[MrPrototypz]

@jeppewie1206 I won't even bother since i saw your profile picture.

[jeppewie1206]

@MrPrototypz what? You can't be serious! How can the original halo be better than the recent ones? it's old and was created by an not as experienced bungie. People only say it's best because it's a classic. honestly, it's good, but even reach is better.

[jeppewie1206]

@AislinKageno it won't.. this song kicks it's ass, even through it's at 8.

[Freakazoid511]

this is one of the most epic game songs that ever been. i totaly like halo, game and music thumbs up ^^
