Your favorite Battle Themes?

[The Mighty Palm]

I just feel like starting a discussion. If this isn't the right place to post it please move it.
(it is video games so I think this is the right place.)

I guess to start I'll say Megalomania from LIVE A LIVE is one of my favorite Battle Themes.

Spoiler: Megalomania LIVE A LIVE

Spoiler: Battle Quest 64

Battle from Quest 64 (this is a remastering remix, but same melody)

[Kyoku]

Hmm, I usually can't remember names, so I'll go with some from the top of my head!
Not sure if they count as battle themes, but oh well, I tried...
Unfinished Battle - Xenoblade Chronicles
Dark Pit's Theme - Kid Icarus Uprising (can't remember if this counts)
Stirring - Okamiden (so adorable and kicks butt!!!)
Yeaaah, I dunno much else....

 

[Nutty171]

@Kyoku I know somebody else who likes "Unfinished Battle"...

As for my favorite battle songs, I'll have to go with a bunch of Pokémon songs. My favorites of those is probably the Palkia/Dialga battle.

[Lornsteyn]

I have many favorite battle themes, posting all of them would be to much.
Because of that, I only post these three of my favorites.

Spoiler: Breath of Fire III

Spoiler: Final Fantasy VII

Spoiler: Star Ocean The Second Story

How about the last encounter with Seymour in FFX when you find him inside sin?

 

[CleanWater]

There are too many, but the best ones I remember right now...

Spoiler: Terranigma - Last Boss

Spoiler: Megaman Legends 2 - Geetz Battle

Porradaria 2: Pagode of the Night

1. Boss Battle

[Amarok]

Spoiler: FE:Awakening Id Purpose

Spoiler: Super Robot Wars V OST - Matte Black Bullet

Spoiler: Xenogears: Awakening

And probably the best final boss theme ever (for me)

Spoiler: Ar no Surge OST - ra-ciel reincarnation

 

[CleanWater]

@Amarok I never saw so good soundtracks for battles like these in my life!

 

[Lonewulf123]

Too many to list but I really
Like eternity from Blue dragon. And "he of the name" from bravely default .

 

[BadMinotaur]

I'm at work so I can't browse YouTube, but search for "Battle on the Bridge" from Final Fantasy Tactics. Quality music, that.

 

[Matseb2611]

Oh boy, I love battle music and there are so many. I bet I'll be forgetting some, but here we go.

Pretty much every battle theme from Final Fantasy games. Don't want to post them all, so I'll just post my favourite. @Lornsteyn already posted Still More Fighting, so I'll post another couple of my favourites:

Spoiler: FF6 Boss Theme

Spoiler: FF7 Fighting

Battle music I love from other games:

Spoiler: Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow - Into the Dark Night

Spoiler: Castlevania: Curse of Darkness - Toccata into Blood Soaked Darkness

Spoiler: Castlevania: Curse of Darkness - Followers of Darkness the First

Spoiler: Dark Souls - Ornstein & Smough

Spoiler: Sonic 2 - Boss Theme

Spoiler: Streets of Rage - Final Boss

Spoiler: Crypt of the Necrodancer - Deep Sea Bass

Gonna stop for now before I get too carried away.

 

[Dalph]

This should cover most of them.

Spoiler: Legend of Mana - Irwin on Reflection

Spoiler: Suikoden II - Gothic Neclord

Spoiler: Final Fantasy X - Seymour Battle Theme

Spoiler: Kingdom Hearts - Guardando nel Buio

Spoiler: Xenoblade Chronicles - One Who Gets in Our Way

Spoiler: Beyond Good and Evil - First Encounter

Spoiler: Mass Effect - Final Assault

Spoiler: The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth - Delirium

Spoiler: Undertale - Hopes and Dreams

 

[onipunk]

Seriously, guys? No Golden Sun? The first game's battle theme is my favourite regular battle theme of all time, it's an absolutely incredible piece of work. Saturos' Boss Battle was also so good it got remixed and used for bonus bosses in Dark Dawn. Just amazing stuff.

Spoiler: Golden Sun - Battle! [Isaac]

Spoiler: Golden Sun - Saturos Battle

"Serpent Eating The Ground" from Bravely Default is one of the best final boss themes I've ever heard. The way it builds up into a crescendo before kicking right into each of the four main characters' leitmotifs at around 4:40 is incredible, and it's one of the most intelligently-composed themes in the entire genre.

Spoiler: Bravely Default - Serpent Eating The Ground

I've always liked the music of the Dept Heaven series, especially Knights in the Nightmare. Some tracks are melancholic, others are powerful, and my personal favourite manages to combine the two into a truly excellent battle theme.

Spoiler: Knights in the Nightmare - Clash with the Imperial Princess Arlie

Otherworld from Final Fantasy X is also a favourite, I'm a metal fan anyway so I was always going to like it but damn man, what a track. The bassline is so fun to play as well.

Spoiler: Final Fantasy X - Otherworld

I also have a soft spot for all of Metal Gear Rising's boss themes, they're absolutely ridiculous but so is the game, so it works well. Red Sun is a particular favourite for how not-over-the-top it is compared to something like Stains of Time. Another reason Red Sun is my favourite is how well it mashes up with the Space Jam theme, which is hilarious and shouldn't work but it just does.

Spoiler: Metal Gear Rising

There's a bunch of others I don't really have the space to mention here, but Deathguise's theme from Final Fantasy IX comes close to getting on this list, along with The Extreme from Final Fantasy VIII (the best bit of that game, to be honest) and anything using that classic Final Fantasy battle bassline. Soon as that kicks in I always end up tapping my fingers along with it, no matter what.

 

[Clades]

They are the songs which come up in my mind at the moment:

Spoiler: Fire Emblem Awakening - Mastermind (Walhart/Gangrel Theme)

Spoiler: Code Name S.T.E.A.M. - The Enemy's Willful Eye

Spoiler: Super Smash Bros Brawl: Boss Battle 1

Spoiler: Tales of Symphonia - Full Force

Spoiler: Guardian Heores - Fighters of Pain

Spoiler: Mischief Makers - Boss Theme 1

 

[Ms Littlefish]

Baten Kaitos - The True Mirror
FF XII - Clash On The Big Bridge
Earthbound - Giygas
Persona 5 - Rivers in the Desert
Star Fox Assualt - Star Wolf
Pokemon Diamond/Pearl - Cynthia Champion Theme

 

[umbralshadows]
