It's a fun, if shallow, series in which you will wash up on shore, you will be nursed back to health by a girl you'll shortly save, and you will defeat some ancient evil that just happens to threaten the sleepy little hamlet you've wandered into. More importantly for this thread, it's a series that has some of the most consistently good music I've heard in video games. Granted, none of these songs would ever win a Grammy, but it's had dozens of catchy tunes over the course of twelve games and twenty years, which is no mean feat. I've posted some links to Youtube samples. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDm9LaJeN9w http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0odS0Ucw1M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uxBPDYg14c&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GalGNBExNdU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CuXRyy-t4M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smHagLq08yM

Wow, it sounds just like a synth version of Iron Maiden! The songs have the same arrangements, and most of them even have Maiden's trademark galloping rhythm lol.
