Just watch the first 30 seconds of this video and remember back to your childhood. After you do that you'll know why I tear up whenever I listen to this track or watch this movie. :')

Hmm, these are some of the best soundtracks I could get off the LoZ series. Of course, they're final boss battles. Could you expect anything else?












While the Wind Waker video looks a bit... cartoonish, It's my favourite of the two. The vocals from 0:40 to 1:10 are filled with epicness.

Of course, you couldn't have a thread like this without this song in my opinion:

The entire King Arthur soundtrack is brilliant. The music is just so EPIC.

Hans Zimmer is brilliant, his scores are incredible.

Some of my favorite soundtracks/scores:

King Arthur - Hans Zimmer
Transformers - Steve Jablonsky
Last Of The Mohicans - Trevor Jones/Randy Edelmen/Clannad
Gladiator - Hans Zimmer & Lisa Gerrard
Braveheart - James Horner & London Symphony Orchestra
All POTC scores - Hans Zimmer/Klaus Badelt

All those are epic. I absolutely love orchestral music and soundtracks/scores.

The first 1:20 of this song are literally far too good to be used just for a videogame. It gives me shivers down my spine and almost has me blubbering every time I hear it...

Then it goes into 'prog-rock mode' and spoils it for me, personally. Still, some may like it.












And, as far as Epic electronic music goes, look no futher than Blu Mar Ten.

(This track makes me feel somehow both huge and tiny in proportion to the world around us at the same time.)
