NHL 99 - Best intro for any sports game ever!!

YOU SAID IT!!!

Plokite - I've never played any of those games? What sort of music is it (I guess I mean the sport games mainly)?

For NHL, he often experimented with metal-ish sounds. Check NHL 98 and 99 first, as I don't know much about the others.

Nice findings, thanks! I never really played NFS games (except for a couple of demo versions - I'm not much into racing stuff anyway) but what music I've heard from those is really good

Can someone please mirror the Duke Nukem 3D sound track MP3 pack download from: http://sc55.duke4.net/duke3d.php

 

There's something wrong with the server which causes my browser to only download parts of the file, not the whole 230MB.

Here you go, from xDuke site:

One thing though, it's probably not the latest version, but it's still high quality.

 

And here are some Age of Empires MP3s from Microsoft FTP:

Hee. I got the soundtrack that came with the AOE Collector's Edition.

You mean the compilation where the tracks are plain WAVs on a DVD? Or was there an earlier multi-CD release with a separate audio CD for the soundtrack?

 

Anyway, here's the MP3 soundtrack of Stargunner:

Does anyone have a soundtrack compilation for End of Nations (now that game has been delayed)?

[Plok 320]

Seeing how Klepacki still doesn't have it on his website, you can just dream on.

Here's some high-quality remastered soundtracks of games that run on id Tech 1 and Build engines:

The WAVs. Had to google a track listing to get them all named correctly

Heh, I also had to look up the track names somewhere (thankfully some AoE wiki or other - or maybe even Wikipedia - had the entire Collector's Edition track listing)

Love that Bulletstorm OST. Never played the game, but that's some great music

If they're MP3, you can extract those yourself in the map/scenario editor in the exact same format. Not to mention Frozen Throne tracks.

[Plok 320]

Don't know if this qualifies as free OST, but this is the Half-Life: Opposing Force soundtrack pack that's commonly used among customers that have the Steam version (which plays only the vanilla Half-Life music for some reason). It's been spread on Steam's forums since 2008 at least, and Valve didn't take the link down, so I guess this link is good.

[Edit] Apparently Interplay used to have MP3 soundtracks from quite a few of their games available from their FTP back in mid-2000s:

That second link fails, MrFlibble...

[MrFlibble 31]

Not again. I have no idea what I do wrong in this particular forum that links don't get parsed properly like that.

 

Anyway, it's fixed now.
