Greatest Video Game Music Vol. 2

Thought I'd throw this out there. I couldn't find a good music thread to revamp, but the same people who made the other video game music album performed by the London Philharmonic made a second album and it's only four dollars on Amazon. I picked it up but I haven't listened yet.

Aaaaa, it's a compilation, right? For a moment I just stared at the picture and felt blissful emptiness in my head.

Thank you for pointing me at this. I looked up the first compilation and listened to the first track and wept.

It pleases me to see Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Portal songs listed amongst the tracklist.

Tetris.

No Xenosaga? A pity. There were some tracks on there that were a lot better than the tracks they included. Then again, they want to make money, and what better way than to only include big name / budget titles. Advent Rising is the only title on the list that isn't considered to be a huge franchise.

For shame...

It's like a big pirate-me sign.

That sucks. I know you can listen to the first one for free on Spotify (well, most of it, some of the tracks are blacked out).

I really don't understand the logic behind that pricing structure.

One thing missing:

Awesome!

Oh, and one more thing that is missing is any music from Journey.

It is one of the best game soundtracks every written.

Yeah, I don't get it either. Morality aside, I'm speaking purely practically. As a customer, showing me a pricing and delivery disparity like that is probably one of the best ways to not get my money.

Amazon is weird that way sometimes. I think they have similar restrictions on Amazon video games while Steam just doesn't care. Steam gets my money obviously.
