There will be another special nearer the end of the year (to look at best of 2014 type affair).
I'm sure many users will tweet some suggestions, loving the music being played tonight, great mix and great theme suggestion!
Hi all,
So Classic FM have another game special coming on December 13th. It's a show looking at the best game soundtracks of 2014, with a brief look ahead to 2015 as well.
And... we'd love to hear your requests! It doesn't just have to be tied to a game that came out this year, it could also include:
- Remasters/HD releases are fair game, especially if their score has been updated!
- Big events are also good - for example we could play Minecraft, related to the $2bn sale earlier this year.
- Concerts are also good - lots to choose from in that respect.
- Scores finally released commercially also works - Lair and Flower both finally had official releases this year.
So do let us know what you'd like to hear, either via our website (contact Howard Goodall on his page) or post here.
Obviously it's a classical station, so we're unlikely to play something like the Sunset Overdrive soundtrack, but you can post those anyway if you feel like it. It's always good to get an idea of what people really liked of any given year. Also, it has to be officially available, so no game rips or bootleg scores.
Do feel free to create a dedicated thread as well - would be good to get the word out about this forthcoming show and make it one chosen by the fans!
Thanks!

Please use this thread as a reference if you haven't played every single game of 2014.

The problem is that a bunch of this year's best OSTs haven't had official releases (looking at you, Nintendo).
It's technically last year in Europe, but Bravely Default does have an OST release and some great songs. I haven't actually played the game yet, so I can't say which songs are the best, but there's other GAFfers who can help with that.

I'm a big fan of Dragon Age Inquisition's soundtrack. The main theme is very straightforward, but still beautiful.
I'd love to request Far Horizons from Skyrim, but finding a link to 2014 is difficult. They announced back in January of 2014 that the game had surpassed 20 million copies sold though, firmly cementing it as a core franchise. The soundtrack by Jeremy Soule reached fifth place in Classic FM's 2013 Hall of Fame so it's a popular soundtrack, and the London Philharmonic have performed Far Horizons too.

Well The Last of Us remastered came out this year and the main theme by Gustavo Santaolla is brilliant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y97u-U0nvJM

With these events on ClassicFM are happening more often, maybe a dedicated official thread would be of more use than bumping an older event.
Anyway how about Valkyria Chronicles PC was released this year. It's got a great soundtrack by Hitoshi Sakimoto.

O_O I'm hearing Howard Shore (Two Towers) and John Williams (Last Crusade) at the same time. Glad he wasn't phoning it in after so many games.

Some TLoU music would be great, like the main theme "The Last of Us" and "All Gone (No Escape)".
