Video Game Music Vinyls, Do You Own Any?

[AgentStrange]

What I'd like is the original Doom soundtracks on vinyl. That would be bangin.

 

[Council Pop]

Desperately wish I could get either of the Splatoon soundtracks on vinyl.

All I own at the moment is Banjo-Kazooie.

 

[CollectedDust]

I have the Halo: CE and Halo 5 soundtrack on vinyl... don't have a record player, lol

 

[eddiemunstr]

No, but I'm a weirdo who never really has listened to any music in my lifetime so I dont own any musical media.

 

[Orso]

Most of my vinyl collection is game music.

Official, bootleg, whatever.

[Mona]

this is the only one i got

 

[trevofour]

Hoo boy I have a ton. All of Data Discs, most Generation Series, some Mondo, Ship2Shore, iam8bit, and a fair amount of bootlegs.

Surprising enough some of the bootlegs are the most impressive ones out of the everything.

 

[Polyh3dron]

Katamari Damacy
Persona 5 4xLP box set

That's about it. Also, every time someone ITT said "vinyls" it made my left eye twitch. The plural of vinyl is vinyl.

 

[CannonFodder52]

Any of y'all have that LISA The Painful vinyl? It seems really uncommon.

 

[Deleted member 12790]

Got Streets of Rage, Streets of Rage 2, Thunder Force IV, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shenmue, Sonic Mania, and Sonic CD. I want to get Outrun as well but I haven't ever seen it repressed. I love these albums.

 

[batfax]

Panzer Dragoon Saga 20th Anniversary Arrange. Looks great and came with a digital version.

I also have the Skies of Arcadia set preordered, though I don't know when it'll be shipping.

Really hoping the soundtrack to the game Morphite gets a vinyl release one day too....

[KomandaHeck]

Yep. I have a rule of only purchasing soundtracks that I love so my wallet isn't bled completely dry. I have the following:

- Hotline Miami
- Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number (I'm lucky to even have this. After enquiring about the possibility of a repressing in the vinyl thread back on the old site, a generous member who lived close to the iam8bit gallery in LA was kind enough to offer to buy and ship it to me in the UK. If that person is still here, thank you again!)
- Grand Theft Auto V
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt + Hearts of Stone + Blood & Wine
- Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
- Deus Ex: Human Revolution
- Brigador Vol. I & II
- Silent Hill 2
- Streets of Rage
- Mass Effect Trilogy (I'm glad I ordered this when I did as the BioWare store either closed or stopped shipping internationally almost immediately afterwards)

The only remaining must-have soundtracks I can think of are Metal Gear Solid, Ace Combat and a re-release of Final Fantasy VIII that isn't a picture disc set.

 

[Anth0ny]

I have this and I love it so much

[LordofPwn]

Yeah, I just got it set up last month.

For now I've just got pretty cheap wall holders. I'm not in an area where I have to fear earthquakes or anything like that, so these work for me.

You cannot hold a box set or four record set on one of these though. Also consider that the covers will likely receive color fading from the sun.

Sweet thanks! I'd have the individual album covers from the box sets up and I don't get much sunlight in my condo so color fading won't be an issue either. These should work great!

 

[LaneDS]

This thread made me curious, so I counted and apparently I own 53 different game soundtracks on vinyl which I now feel a little self conscious about! Didn't count the non-VG stuff but I'm pretty sure based on that I own more soundtracks than not.

 

[thatapplesauce]

I have every The Last of Us Vinyl from Mondo as well as the Pyre soundtrack from Supergiant's store. No regrets!

 

[ZeroDS]

Always wanted to get into vinyls, way too hard to know what to buy though. All these look gorgeous

 

[RenorMirshann]

I only have Heroes III Piano Sonatas by Paul Anthony Romero.

That game was a big part of my childhood and there was no CD version, so I bought it. But I don't have a record player.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Nier and Nier Automata OST's.

 

[amprsand11]

Just Mother 2.

this is the only one i got

Didn't know either of these existed but now I need them

Awesome. Hope it works out well for ya.

Post some pics when you get it set up.

 

[nevercomehome]

THANKS OP. I was gonna say that the only game OST vinyl I had was TLOU and then I was going to complain about how Mondo never put out the Silent Hill 2 OST on vinyl but I quickly double checked and just saw that it's up. Definitely gonna buy that right now!

I've wanted to take stock of my VGM vinyl collection for awhile now, so I'm posting it here. Maybe it'll start generating some discussion again too!

Video game music vinyls have become the thing I collect now, just because I love video game music so much and want to own as much of it as possible on physical media that I actually use and, at least from the perspective of someone my age (34), is novel. I think I've managed to build a pretty decent collection so far:

Banjo-Kazooie
Best of Mega Man 1-10 (though it really isn't)
Diggin' in the Carts: A Collection of Pioneering Japanese Video Game Music
Castlevania
Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Katamari Damacy
Mother 2
Ninja Gaiden: The Definitive Soundtrack Vols. 1 and 2
Okami
OutRun
Rez Infinite
Shadow of the Colossus
Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master
Shovel Knight
Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows
Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment
Sonic Forces: The Vinyl Cutz
Sonic Mania
Street Fighter II: The Definitive Soundtrack
Streets of Rage
Streets of Rage 2
Super Castlevania IV
Super Hang-On
Taito Sound Team "Zuntata" Arcade Classics Vol. 3
The Messenger
Undertale

I'm pretty lucky to have relatively easy access to this stuff. I live in Los Angeles about 15 minutes away from the giant Amoeba Records in Hollywood, and they get new VGM vinyls in surprisingly often. I usually check back every two weeks or so and find some gems worth picking up more often than not.

Meanwhile, I have Sonic CD and Turtles in Time pre-ordered!

 

[apieceofstrange]

I have a few.

Spelunky
Into The Breach
Streets of Rage III

Bummed that I missed out on Night in the Woods. That sold out way faster than I expected.

 

[Shoes]

Only one I have is Super Hexagon, even if the hexagonal shape of the vinyl makes it impractical as hell!

 

[Alastor3]

I never really heard what vinyl sounds like beside old stuff, how is the new song like game soundtrack sounds like on vinyl?

This drives me crazy as well.

Vinyl remains the best sounding format, on a proper system, by far. Can't beat its warm characteristics. Music needs to be properly mastered for vinyl though, it's a much different process than CD or digital.

 

[tiesto]

[J-Skee]

So far, just God of War & Last of Us, Vol. 1 from Mondo. Hoping they'll repress the colored vinyl of Vol. 2 so I can grab that as well. Almost spent $100 on the Metal Gear Solid vinyl, but will wait until the Solid Snake cover comes out instead.

 

[SmittyWerbenManJensen]

Dustforce, Hotline Miami 2.

Wish I had many more, but they are pretty pricey. I am very jealous of some of the collections being posted in this thread.

 

[Transistor]

I only own two.

I missed out on every major Transistor release & I have no one to blame but myself. I only just started collecting vinyl, so I'm not too mad about missing that release, but I hate myself for missing the LRG run.

I also own the CDs for Transistor, Pyre, and Bastion.

All three are signed by Ashley Barrett and Darren Korb.

I may be obsessed.....

LOL at "I may be obsessed". Also, find to my surprise that they repressed the vinyl. Just put my order in. Thanks for bringing it up!

the plural of "vinyl" is "vinyl". Seeing "vinyls" used a lot here. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Looking to get here soon:
Castlevania SotN and Metal Gear Solid

 

[saladdays]

I was very strongly considering getting the MOTHER soundtracks (save MOTHER 3) on vinyl. Maybe LISA too? My one personal problem with most video game vinyls is that the art feels a little cheesy for album art to me. Feels a bit embarassing, lol.
