If you are someone that has spent a lot of time playing games growing up, then you have probably started to notice that some games have fantastic soundtracks. In fact, some songs probably produce a sense of nostalgia when you hear them and they remind you of a better time when you were kicking back and playing your favourite game.
Game developers have started to pay attention to the fact that the soundtracks of their games make a big impact and so many have done what they can to make sure that their games have an iconic soundtrack that people will remember. Here are just some popular games with iconic soundtracks.
GTA 5
If you are someone that has played the latest instalment of Grand Theft Auto, something that you will likely remember is the iconic radio option. In the game, you spend most of your time driving around and when doing so, it is important that you have some music to listen to and enjoy.
GTA 5 was worlds apart from the other instalments in the franchise as they used real songs by real singers, which they hadn’t previously done. They went to the effort to develop a few different radio stations which had many different genres, which made it perfect for the vast array of different players that would enjoy the game.
As well as playing on the radio, a lot of the iconic songs in the game would also play in different locations throughout the map. For example, if you went to the clubs, you could hear Fergie’s GLAMOROUS on repeat. Even now, if you hear songs that you heard of GTA, you are hit with happy memories of playing with your friends after school or in the summer holidays.
Minecraft
Though Minecraft doesn’t have a single song with actual words in it, it is hard to deny that the soundtrack of the game isn’t iconic.
Even when you just hear the intro music of the game, it brings back a wave of nostalgia and it is weird that we are able to recognise all of these iconic songs. If you remember your time playing the game, you will probably remember that you had the option to put some disks in music players to add some ambience to your home and to make your game feel far more relaxing.
You will be glad to know that Minecraft has continued to make brand new songs for the game and there are more and more disks being added with every update. If you want to see what these songs are, you should try playing the game again. If you don’t feel like playing a classic survival mode, you can find some of the best Minecraft servers here that you can play and check out all of the new music and what other updates the game has to offer.
Sackboy
If you are someone that played Little Big Planet when you were younger, something that you will remember is the iconic Sackboy character that you could play as in the game.
Though there haven’t been any new Little Big Planet games in a while, there has been a new game released onto the market called Sackboy. This follows the adventures of Sackboy as he tries to save the kingdom from mischievous enemies and evil monkeys.
This game is cinematically beautiful and it has a lot of vibrant colours and fantastic NPCs. There are a lot of missions in this game that are played to the tune of a brand new song and a lot of popular hits that we all love. So you can enjoy the game, all while listening to some brilliant songs.
