Just as it said, what kind of game music from the 2000s that make you feel nostalgic?

There’s been one game to make me nostalgic, Majora’s Mask, and it seems ages ago tells you how good it is.

A few that really "hit home" everytime i listen to them:

You could cut the nostalgia with a butter knife

Love seeing Tekken 4 on here. The early 00s is extremely nostalgic to me.

Blinx-Definitely has that early 00s vibe.

Buffy- surprisingly high production value for a video game based off a tv show

Still prefer tekken 4 soundtrack but DOA3 had the looks—this song was my favorite.

JSRF definitely defines the early 00s era for me.

 

[Mista]

Love the game!

 

[Bankai]

So many fond memories of Fable on Xbox. And the music... truly epic and some of the best EVER.

 

[Tschumi]

Ah jeez... Obviously...

Age of Empires 2. Vanilla WoW. Dungeon siege. Morrowind. Oblivion. Wind Waker. Metroid Prime. Ssx tricky. Ssx 3. Operation Flashpoint. Metal Gear Solid 2. Metal Gear Solid 4. Age of Mythology. Civilisation 3. Civilization 4 (oh man, i am all about that uber-lion king opening menu track) Rise of Nations. Empire Earth. Halo. Ground Control. Homeworld. Sid Meier's Railroads! Warcraft 3. Diablo 2. Rome: Total War. Stronghold. Stronghold Crusader. Lumines. Valkyria Chronicles. Persona 3 Portable. Persona 4 Golden ... There are surely at least a dozen more...

The entire Chrono Trigger/Cross OST




Doesn't matter which track, they all take me back

The entire Chrono Trigger/Cross OST




Doesn't matter which track, they all take me back

This whole ost makes me incredibly nostalgic for a game that i still haven't played (i do have the game though but it's still in my backlog.I only played the first couple of hours.) I really don't know how Mitsuda managed to do that. Are there some certain notes that trigger nostalgia even for things you haven't experienced?

I can't even imagine how nostalgic it must feel for those who actually played the game back when it came out.Same goes for Chrono Trigger.

YOU SIR, are a man with good taste.

These are just a very small sample that make me nostalgic.

Snake Eater (Metal Gear Solid 3)
Theme of Love (Metal Gear Solid 4)
To Zanarkand (Final Fantasy X)
Archades (Final Fantasy XII)
Super Smash Brothers Melee Main Theme
Title Screen (Wind Waker)
Dragon Roost Island (Wind Waker)
You're Not Here (Silent Hill 3)
Crashed Frigate Orpheon (Metroid Prime)

Good era for video game music.

 

[Sean Mirrsen]

Most fitting space game music outside of the Homeworld series. Still makes me remember the open vastness of space in that game.

 

[sublimit]

Good era for video game music.

The best IMO.

 

[UnNamed]

Nothing from 2000 make me nostalgic.

This was the golden age for me.

The music in the Suikoden games was remarkable.

 

[DeaconOfTheDank]

Nights isn't actually from the 2000s (released 1996), but I associate the song with Sonic Adventure. Interestingly, they're all Japanese games...

Videogame OSTs from the 2000's were just

Japanese games had the best music. I wanna add that arcade games did too.

 

[fersnake]

all this post and no gta? man i love FF, Zelda, MGS etc but this theme song bring some fine memoirs to me.

 

[Mabdia]

2000 was an amazing year.

I'm feeling really old nowadays. Can't see games getting any better than the old days or even in the same league.

Too much good games back in the day.

Call of Duty 4 & Halo 3 literally transport me back to my bedroom at my parent's house. The music moves me so deeply. It just reminds me of the all the sleepless teenage nights grinding the game out.

You don't know what I'd do to experience 2007 one last time. Xbox Live was peak back then.
