Hey FL81,
It took me awhile to get some time and actually listen through your ranking thus far but I finally did it. I gotta say I like your write-up style though. (It's similar to the way I do my write-ups :P)

Anyway, on to the ranking and few comments I have...

#109 Silent Hill 2 - True As a big Silent Hill fan, I love this tune. It's a bit lower on your list than I would have placed it but I get your sentiment. It seems you either are a fan of Survival Horror music or not really. While most songs admittedly lose some context outside of the actual gameplay where it is used I still have a liking to anything as dark and mysterious as this.

#101 I Expect You to Die - Credits Not sure if you noticed but the link was broken on this one. I pulled up a video but it said Intro credits so I'm not sure if I listened to the right one. It was kind of cool either way. Very James Bond-ish imo.

#100 Pokmon Red/Blue/Yellow - Lavender Town Aw man a classic from my childhood. Kinda low but I do agree that it hasn't quite aged well when comparing to all the great stuff we have to listen to nowadays.

#97 Baldur's Gate - Main Theme This is actually in the stack of games I'm working on atm. I actually found the game a few months ago in near mint condition at my local pawn shop for only $4! Totally worth it.

#95 Chaos;Child - Silent Wind Bell Never heard this one before but it's kinda decent for a slow song.

#90 TrackMania Valley - Extra Cologne This is a really good dance/trance beat here. I'd say it might be too low but I have no idea what hasn't been ranked yet.

#86 Blue Reflection - You're not a heroine, it's me
#84 STELLIGHTS - Lucentear
These both make me think of the 90's about the same time when Sonic 3D came out for some reason. It was the kind of music I'd hear almost every time I walked into Electronics Boutique (Back before they became EB games... back before they became Gamestop)

#82 Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja 3 - Naruto and Kakashi Never played this game before but I really like what I'm hearing here.

#81 Ar nosurge - The Hourglass Doesn't Fall This is pretty great imo. I have added it to my list of tunes to listen to while I read my graphic novels. I briefly read a few pages of Saga while listening to this and it goes amazingly well with the series. This would definitely climb up my list pretty easily even if it were a 10 hour version tbh.

#80-#67 Not really much in there of any interest of mine.

#66 Divekick - Boss Pretty cool song here I've never heard before now.

#63 Divinity: Dragon Commander - Watching the Clouds Recently picked up the first game in this series and now I'm looking forward to getting the sequel. I love almost anything with decent piano play in it.

#62 Granado Espada - Rio Tranquilo This would be great if made into some sort of dance/techno remix imo.

#59 Tyrian - Ending Number 2 Oooh, I like this one. I agree that the chiptune sound here really sells the song. (Maybe I feel that way because of the hundreds of chiptunes I've recently been sifting through for my next ranking)

#54 Steins;Gate 0 - Messenger Digging this tune as well.

#53 Yakuza Kiwami 2 - A Scattered Moment Not exactly what I would have pictured for a Yakuza game but very interesting listen to say the least.

#52 Wolfenstein: The New Order - Ransacked I love the guitar play in this one but when the tempo picks up at around 1:00 in I feel like it could have been better for some reason since it drowns out the cool intro which hurts it imo... but then it gets good again at 2:00 in.

...and I guess I'm all caught up! Looking forward to the rest of the ranking dude. Keep up the great work! =D
