I mentioned this in the anime thread, but I'm a huge mecha fan. That means I play games with mecha too! One of my favorite game series is Super Robot Wars (or Super Robot Taisen, whatever), and a large part of this is not just the awesome mecha (many of them from various animes, crossover series ftw), but the great music. Every unit has its own battle theme that plays whenever they attack an enemy, and many of them are awesome. I won't bother posting any of the anime ones here, just the original characters.

My favorite battle themes:
SRW W - Bullet Striker
SRW W - Knowledge Recorder - Boss Theme
SRW W - Sail on Future
SRW J - Fate
SRW K - Active Mind
SRW K - Edax - Boss Theme
SRW Z2 Saisei-Hen - The Unbreakable
SRW Z - Land Crasher
SRW OGs - Steel Beowulf
SRW OGs - Trombe! - Can't have a SRW related post without the song that overrides all.

Right, I have a lot more but I'll take a break for now lol. I think 10 themes is more than enough for one post.

I like to pretend anything after X5 doesn't actually exist. That being said, this is my favorite of the PS1 MMX songs

Are you serious? Do you hear these sick beats from Spark Mandrill? Storm Eagle is strong second. Forever First place finisher for best MMX song

Man, arguing over what the best Mega Man (X) song is? Why don't you guys do something a little less futile like find the meaning of life? :P

And while I too try not to think about the games past X5, I will say, for all its fuckery and bullshit, X6 DID have a good soundtrack to it. It even has The Final Countdown, how cool is that?

Game's still bullshit though (seriously, spawning the ONE enemy that can perma-"kill" civilians RIGHT ON TOP OF THE FUCKING CIVILIAN (who is standing next to THREE others) THAT HAS REALLY IMPORTANT/GOOD PARTS (one of which are REQUIRED TO BEAT THE DAMNED GAME) is the dick move to end all dick moves. Fuck you X6).

I'm starting to believe that I'm the only person who likes X6 and that all the others who allegedly like it are but a myth.

I enjoyed X6

Though im probably the only person in the entire world who actually had enjoyment from X7 <_<

But in True Mega Man fashion, they did have some pretty kickass music in it.

X7 is...is really bad. Unforgivably so.

I still have fun rolling through hallways shooting everything that moves.

Oh right. This was a music thread.

My favorite composer in the world is Yoko Shimomura, of Kingdom Hearts and Mario RPG fame. I'm really happy for her composing for a mainline Final Fantasy now that XV is a thing, and she dabbles in other RPGs like Xenoblade Chronicles and Radiant Historia. I'd link something, but it'd wind up just being a discography torrent.

After her, Yasunori Mitsuda, who is criminally underutilized. Most famous for Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross, dude came back to help out with Kid Icarus: Uprising and composed my favorite song from it.

I also highly respect Nobuo Uematsu, but I can't help but snicker that after he left Square to pursue an indy music career, he kind of stopped being relevant.

Oh I didn't say it was good, I knew it was shit, but still had my enjoyment out of it. Intentional or unintentional.

anyways more music!
I cannot think of any game that this boss theme wouldn't work in <_<

Par for the course, little wierdo.
I'm a bit saddened that there has been no mention of Hiroshi Kawaguchi (Hiro) in here. That guy has made some classics.

Have a listen to these.

Afterburner - Main Theme

Power Drift - Like The Wind

Outrun - Splash Wave

Space Harrier - Main theme

If you have played Sonic and all-stars racing transformed or even Bayonetta you'd be familiar with at least three of these
