Great videogame music

lol, that's not even a mediocre Cave track, never mind the best. You have terrible taste in music, and this goes for your post in the previous page.

I was not gonna say anything because I don't want to discourage people from posting in this thread, but the claim that this shitty little track is the best Cave has put out was more than I could handle.

And the reward is not the track, otherwise you'd simply take it with you and go home. There's no reward; the third stage should be its own reward even if there were no fourth stage at all. The purpose of the fourth stage's music is to play during the fourth stage, not to reward you for the playing of a previous stage. Get your shit straight.

Yes, I get that playing the third stage is it's own reward.

But when you struggle against that stage for a long time and then finally manage to beat it and you get to see an awesome new level (with an awesome new track, say what you will), it feels like you're being rewarded for your struggles (yes, of course the struggles themselves were the reward, too).

And in the last stage, which is also the hardest, what are you struggling for? The game over screen?

So no, you didn't get it, you are just adding that line in your post because icycalm said it and icycalm seems to be usually right.

In short, struggling should be its own reward. If it feels like it isn't there's either something wrong with you or with the game you are playing (or, in real life, the activity you are engaged in).

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance: It Has to Be This Way (Senator Armstrong)

Absolutely epic beginning, but it fucks it up at 0:50 unfortunately, and it's all downhill from there.

Planetary Annihilation (2014, PC&MAC) - Prepare for War

Unbelievable music. Just like with MGR, a perfect soundtrack to a perfect game. Howard Mostrom could well end up being another Jeremy Soule.
