A few that come to mind:







Chill games (designed for hours of play at a time) need a good chill background song to go with it, and acoustic guitar really strikes that mood for me.

 

[Nymphae]

I'm pretty fond of the Everyday Shooter OST.


Love this intro track riff, here's level 1-3:



Level 4:


Level 5:


And my absolute favourite, So Many Ways. This is the XMB music when you have the game selected, and is the final track for the boss level. Just so fucking good.



I still just love how all of your actions subtly add to the soundtrack, even pressing up and down on the main menu allows you to sort of time out a little melody with the notes played when an item is selected. Really fantastic game all around.

Edit: missed the acoustic bit. EDS still deserves the love for it's wonderful all guitar soundtrack.

 

[Pejo]

Still one of my favorite opens of all time.

 

[MetalRain]

Rimworld OST has quite a few guitar tracks

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

The last of us the Thread

 

[Bonfires Down]

Set against a heavy wall of sounds but the melody is still acoustic.

 

[sublimit]

 

[A.Romero]

Would this instrument count? If yes, then I think TLOU has some of the best accoustic music in gaming.

 

[Kagoshima_Luke]

Suikoden, one of my favorite soundtracks of all time.

 

[sublimit]

 

[Rest]

Does it really need saying?



The Gerudo theme from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

 

[Radical Dreamer]

TIME'S SCAR

 

[sublimit]

TIME'S SCAR

I love that theme but isn't that considered as electric guitar?

 

[Radical Dreamer]

I love that theme but isn't that considered as electric guitar?

I'll have to listen to it again in few minutes but I'm pretty sure it's acoustic guitar at the start

 

[sol740]

Pretty sure it's the Last Of Us.

Thread locked.

 

[Cattlyst]

The Flame in the Flood has a great soundtrack, lots of acoustic guitars and some great vocals too. Was quite suprised to hear the music when I first started playing it.

 

[Geki-D]

Tenchu has some good ones, not sure if the guitar is always the main instrument but one at least always features heavily:

 

[petran79]

Konami Asterix and Obelix beat-em-up Spain stage

 

[Myths]

Had to.... about 30 seconds in oh man oh man

 

[TacosNSalsa]

Not purely acoustic but it is prominent

 

[ZeroZeroQuatre]

Acoustic guitar might not really be the main instrument (you damn beautiful flute, you !), but its little sister probably makes up for it around 1:38. So TKO in favor of the strings.

 

[The Dead Flag Blues]

 

[ROMhack]

Chris Remo's score for Firewatch is very good:

 

[Geki-D]

Pretty sure this is an oud which I guess is a type of guitar:

 

[stranno]

Along with the violin and electric guitar.

 

[zenspider]

Smash Ulti and Chrono Cross have some great acoustic guitar led tracks. I'll dig into it when I get home. Good thread!

 

[ProgenitorCastle]

Gene's Rock A Bye the thread. It's acoustic and sets up the mood for the intro level of Godhand pretty well.

 

[bilderberg]

Steve Vai playing the Halo theme for Halo 2



Edit: oh acoustic? oops
