Is having a good soundtrack as important for a game as it used to be?

And there our opinions differentiate. :p though I can't comment on metroid prime as I haven't played that.

I do think there have been a lot of games the last few years with soundtracks that stand out much more than galaxy. Again that's just my opinion.

Name some good tracks. I'm always looking for good video game music, especially if it's better than SMG.

Some Metroid Prime

Nice I like them :P

Especially the credits one. It has something unique over it.. Reminds me of xfiles or something because of the sound XD

 

Well mostly the whole soundtrack from UAW which you can download for free legally somewhere. it's one of the best soundtracks i've heard for a long time.

Some of the best tracks from the game though: (only a few. But most of the soundtrack is awesome so you should check it out if you like these)
