xmas related game music?

I’m trying to make a collection of xmas themed game music. Is there such a collection? Any suggestions?

Pokemon Christmas Bash is all that I can recommend for the time being as well as Freezeezy Peak in Banjo-Kazooie while the Christmas tree is lit up.

nice suggestion with the banjo music

The Gamerip-Soundtrack to Christmas Nights

Slightly Dark Christmas albums 1-3 on Galbadia Hotel.

christmas nights, of course!

Galbadia, never heard of that. Not sure what you mean, are you saying Galbadia 1, 2 and 3 ost’s are full of slightly dar xmas songs? Seems a bit odd, I’m sure I’m just confused 🙂

Nights Into Dreams and the Christmas Nights disk come to mind.

The Christmas rendition of Shenmue with the bells and jingle from Shenmue 1

You can also check out some of the X-mas songs from Rangnarok Online. They’re pretty groovy!

Kingdom Hearts I & II not to mention OST Complete have several X-Masy themed songs.

The various versions of Snowman from the Mother series (and Brawl) are good choices along with both versions of Route 216 from Pok�mon DPP. (I’m more fond of the night version of Route 216, but that’s my opinion.)

One of the songs from Mother 3, #153 on the sound player, sounds kinda Christmasy.

"Jangle Bells" from Donkey Kong Country 3 is another pick.

That’s about all the songs I can come up with at the top of my head. Making a collection like that sounds like a good idea!

zzz

there is a xmas song in crusader no remorse/regret, when u play the game on christmas =)

Aw aww…. Why’d I find this thread too late?!

I totally love Christmas music, and video game / anime ost’s, so been compiling (what I think is) a pretty decent playlist over the past few Decembers.

The decorations have all come down now, but I’ll upload what I’ve got, the files’ll keep for next year!

Here’s the link! – http://www.megaupload.com/?d=57BZUKF3

Actually less music than I remembered here, at 18 tracks. :-\

Credit goes to Dale North and Jivemaster for the OverClocked remixes. There’s a few tracks here that aren’t traditionally Christmassy, but somehow sound like Christmas anyway ("Didn’t it Rain" from Earth Girl Arjuna, for example), there’s a few that are simply obvious arrangements of existing Christmas songs (like "Jingle Bells" from Shenmue), and then there’s the diamonds that are sheer original Christmas music from the world of vgm ("X-Mas de Chocobo", "Diamond Dust Act 2" etc).

Sincerely hope that anyone who downloads, enjoys!

Also, I drudged through a WHOLE lot of Christmas themed J-Pop to make a cd-length best of compilation, if anyone’s interested?!

edit: btw kenman, what SoulMunch was saying earlier is that ‘Slightly Dark’, a retro vgm website, compiles their own Christmas Mixes – the first 3 of which were available to download from the Galbadia Hotel website (the site connected to this forum!). What with the server cost issues right now, Galbadia Hotel’s down at the moment, but you can still get all 6 volumes of Slightly Dark Christmas Mixes from the original website (just google Slightly Dark), albeit a track at a time.

I’ll contribute some lesser known examples of christmas related game music:

-All of the music from the Jazz Jackrabbit series’ Holiday Hare episodes (while in JJ1 they were just rockin remixes of existing christmas songs, JJ2’s chrismas version (HH98) had an original composition entitled "White Hare" (http://www.loricentral.com/music/whare.zip))

-The music for the "Totally Scrooged" stage in Gex 3.

-The music for The Hinterlands in Oogie’s Revenge is an oddball because of how depressing it is.

I would suggest "Super Mario Sleigh Ride" by the OneUp Mushrooms.
Really cool mix of Christmas and Mario.

I guess the music of Sam & Max, Season Two, Episode 1.

The whole episode is about Christmas, but yea, it’s a bit late for that now D:
