I’ll start it off - Legend of Dragoon has my heart with this one

Kingdom Hearts main menu theme. It’s absolutely a nostalgia hit for me. That game was one of my “get-away” games while in a rough situation. Hearing that music always makes me feel a little safer, like I’m just one step away from a completely different life.
Dearly Beloved and the variations on it are the best. I’m partial to the version for Kingdom Hearts 2 but they’re all great
Skyrim, by a longshot. That theme never failed to get me cranked to get my Nordic adventuring on.
Such a fantastic song. Not at all surprising that it was the first piece of music from a video game to not only be nominated for but to win a Grammy.
Pretty much any halo has the best menu music to me (I haven’t played 5 though).
There’s a lot of variety between them all too
I’ll go with Mass Effect, the music in the first 3 games is incredible. Especially in the first game I think. This particular piece is called Vigil.
Probably Metroid Prime. Both the Title Theme and the Menu Theme are fantastic.
Xenoblade games also have brilliant title themes. Here’s the one for the first game.
Now, for some spice, let’s branch into a type of game I think most people here won’t have played - Visual Novels often have great title themes.
- Muv-Luv Alternative’s “Crash” is pure hype
- Both Steins;Gate’s “Gate of Steiner” and Steins;Gate 0’s “Messenger” are great themes too.
- I also love VA-11 HALL-A’s “Hopes and Dreams”.
I cannot get over how good the Metroid Prime menu theme is. It’s both chill vibes and an absolute banger at the same time.
Payday 2 really sets the mood with it’s music
Liquid cooled nighttime shades vibe juice for your ears.
Yeah, there are newer versions, but I deliberately found the original.
Definitely the original main menu music for Dragon’s Dogma.
I remember booting it up on the PS3 back in the day and was like “Wha-?” but after playing the game so many times it’s definitely become a favorite. Both for how out of place it is but also how perfect it fits after all the context of the game.
Sad they replaced it for the Dark Arisen version but luckily there is a mod for PC that restores it in all its glory. :P
Literally the first thing that came to kind. Any time I go to start anything im excited about my brain just starts up the piano.
The correct answer is Civilization V Gods and Kings.
Not main menu but the golden eye pause menu music on the n64 was a banger 🔥
No joke about that shit bro
Can’t believe I had to scroll down so far for this
