Just a wonderful soundtrack

Post » Thu Jun 18, 2009 5:10 am

I'm finally getting around to playing FO:NV and the big thing that continually stands out for me is just the superb ambience set forth by the soundtrack. In the original FO3, I had to cycle between the inane Conan-wannabe theme and the repetitive radio/trite Threedog dialogue. In New Vegas, I don't even bother turning on the radio as the background music sets the tone for a Fallout game beautifully. Kudos to Obsidian and the composer.

A cross between Fallout 1 & 2 and Arcanum, I love it.

Go to the Fallout Nexus (if you're on a PC) and download the CONELRAD radio station. It's awesome.

Agreed. Even though I still like 1 and 2's music better, Inon Zur redeemed himself on NV.

I'd have loved a Wild Wasteland encounter where you find a wrench and toolbox in the middle of the wasteland and you hear http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HjLN1TA3bc.

Actually, IMHO, i liked the music here as good as i liked FO3 music, both were done well, Inon Zur is a wonderful music man, and the music hits are timeless.

I just love that backround music that plays for a while in a Wild Wasteland encounter.

I just love that backround music that plays in a NCR encounter.

I just love that backround music that plays in a Legion encounter,

Neitherless, almost every soundtrack is good in FNV.

I like the combat music a lot. Feels very intense.

Theres only like 2 songs in the entire game*? You joker?

One with the lyrics "Aint that a kick in the head"
and the other "How lucky can one man be, I kissed her and she kissed me"
Actually, it might just be one song...hold on #loads Fallout#
