Tap the Share button in the middle of the footer.

BOOM. You're done. iPhones try to act like it's "just a website bookmark" because they want everyone to go through the App Store but really it functions just like an app... Full screen, moveable icon on your home screen. All of it.
Enjoy.
Install the Channel 3 app from the Google Play Store.
Ok, so in terms of original, instrumental compositions that enhance gameplay, this game would lose. With that being said, THPS2 pretty much molded my musical tastes for the past 20 or so years.
Sonic Frontiers lyrical songs are a close runner up, but SA2 has banger after banger and at this point you aren't a Sonic fan if you don't know Live and Learn
Another tough one to call. Nintendo is the clear winner in terms of music composition IMO
*Honorable mentions: DK Country Series, Metroid Series, Sonic Series, and Hollow Knight*

I literally hum songs from this game almost daily to my 4 month old son. Gerudo Valley, Lon Lon Ranch, Zelda's Lullaby to name a few. Jordan even has a music box that plays Song of Storms
I am a very big video game music lover!
There are some many good composers and so many games that have incredible music!
But I listen to the Donkey Kong Country sound tracks the most, especially D...more
I thought I was answering this question the other day and got called out on a Sega Genesis post.
I had a CD with orchestral versions of the various tracks for each stage and it was incredible. I...more
Nothing but bangers in every single one. Utada hikaru came out with the hottest fire when making the intros and endings on top of all the Disney songs on top
I used to listen to this soundtrack on repeat as background noise while working.
But, they are right it would be either Guitar Hero or Tony Hawk for the win.
There was a moment in time when Capcom just said “screw it, we’re doing jazzy, funky, unique music and we’re gonna make it bang.” And it banged so hard. MvC2 has jazzy bass riffs, funky horns,...more
I just can’t get over how well the different scenes music just yanks you into it. Even now, when I replay it, it still has that effect on me over 20 years later.
I couldn't choose between Final Fantasy X with To Zanarkand. Or Final Fantasy VII with One Winged Angel. The Price of Freedom from Crisis Core.. Way too many good songs spanning across the entire seri...more
There's just something so mesmerizing about SCNTFC's music and the way he records it all. Oxenfree's OST still gives me chills and I know EXACTLY what scene it belongs to and what character is assigne...more
Simon Viklund has done some amazing game soundtracks. The way the game transitions the music almost seamlessly with the flow of the game is amazing too.
And the subsequent titles in the series. Every one has a true flow to each other that is satisfying along with very accurate to highlight the plot points.
The improvement in graphics from the original Xbox to the 360, games truly took your breath away at the time. Escaping the Imperial Sewers was my first Achievement/Gamerscore, and I could scour the la...more
Has to be Stardew I don’t think I’ve ever played a game with better chill relaxing music and the man that made the game did it all. So many of the songs are golden.
Argue with this line-up:
Dead Kennedys – Police Truck
Evenrude – Vilified
Goldfinger – Superman
Primus – Jerry was a Racecar Driver
Speedealer - Screamer/Nothing to Me

I don't know what it is about this soundtrack, but it just works for me. It's got this unexpected quality to it that makes me want to hear it. Often.
Yes, I agree that there are objectively better ...more
Tough call here, but overall as a series the early 2000 Madden games had great soundtracks! Listening to those songs while playing through the mini camp drills was greatness.

Tough question. It would probably be a mix of Halo 3 and Metal Gear Rising. Halo 3 is a remaster of all the tracks that came before it in CE and 2 but with a full 60 piece orchestra. It sounds amazing...more
When you fire this game up and Paradise City starts playing you know your gaming is about to be on another level! Best racing game ever with all of the multiplayer challenges. The whole soundtrack sla...more
Didn't even have to think about this one. The Mega Man X series will always hold a special place in my heart, and that's due in no small part to how amazing the music is
The opening is just this beautiful piano and strings piece, then most of the rest of the game is some awesome melodic metal. I have this soundtrack saved to my phone, and I bust it out every once in ...more
There are so many good ones out there but I remember this one the most. Just hearing parts from certain sections of the game and remembering epic boss battles. Even burned the soundtrack to a CD and w...more
Hands down this game has one of the most incredible soundtracks EVER. I never buy soundtracks, but I've got a physical copy of the record coming soon. Get some friends together and try Risk of Rain 2....more
this is a super difficult question because there's so many games that have amazing soundtracks, but i gotta go with minecraft. ive played this game for about 8 years (which is almost half of my life.....more
David Wise composed a great score that holds up to this day, with the Witcher 3 coming in at a close second. Great for listening to while working or just chilling out. Very memorable.
Tough choice but so many tracks from this game stuck with me. Mitsuda is a genius. Corridors of time, Frog’s theme, Magus’ theme and the main theme (I think it’s just called ‘Chrono Trigger’...more
My brain keeps going back to the masterpiece of a soundtrack this game has and I still listen to it from time to time. My runner up would be Destiny/Destiny 2 since I'm a sucker for that orchestral bl...more
