Elmofongo: Does this song makes you feel like you want to pilot a space jet fighter (think X-Wing) and blast your way through an enemy fleet?

I just hope they add this kind of music to Star Citizen :)

Matewis: Yeah :) Before this thread I had no idea Star Fox had such awesome music. As for putting me in the mood for space battles however, nothing beats: Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom. Admittedly there is a strong nostalgia factor there :P
Here is another Star Fox song, but this is more on the synthetic and techno side than Orchestral:

Fever_Discordia: For films it HAS to be this from 28 days later (originally, apparently its also been on the soundtrack to both Kick Asses and Metro 2033)

In terms of games, What about those awesome C&C soundtracks?
'Hell March' from Red Alert:

And 'Mechanical Man' from the first one:

Ah yes - Mechanical Man. I also loves the winning score music. The one that goes ba dum tus or something and then 'great score. return to base immediately!'.
Forsaken and Descent have both great soundtrack. I don't give any link because the N64, for the former, and the Mac, for the later, versions were great, and I am not really sure for the PC versions.
Top Gun Kenny Loggins - Danger Zone

Fallout 3 Roy Brown - Butcher Pete

Alright I don't know if this counts. Its from live concert from New York in the 90s shot cinematically but goodness the music and dance starts slow and than gets epic. You have to admire the Spainish and their music :)

Not sure about epic, in the sense that the music doesn't make me want to steer my spaceship into the middle of a dogfight and start blasting away with lasers (or anything like that), but it certainly is beautiful :) It is real feel-good and extremely uplifting music. As an added bonus, the springboks just beat the all blacks as I was listening to it :D

Also, the bright red dress, the dancing and the music together instantly reminded me of another piece which I don't think has been posted in this thread: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vyX2oJr9-k

How about this then from Metroid's Fire levels? Its the same song from different styles:

SNES: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoHm2BZeWbQ&list=PL0BCE0BA953AC33E4&index=13

Metroid Prime: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QwjHWnG--Q&list=PL60AC8FAD43BF869C&index=21
The most epic song is in the Avengers - these Avengers, of course. (Unfortunately I couldn't find the full song, but this vid has the music and that's something.)

Heroes of Might and Magic is a turn based strategy game right? Say if I play Fire Emblem, Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics, and Afavance Wasrs, I am capable of Playing this?

Oh yres I can't wait to sink my teeth into the zelda series :D
The metroid music is also very cool, which is yet another great series I never played, although I did play this gem which metroid for some reason reminds me of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9pUaHdtlMA
(never finished it - becomes insane towards the end)
If anyone gets bored feel free to make a thread about shit music in games/movies. I'd do it myself but then everyone would jump on me for being too negative. :D
