Switched on my Vita this morning on my way to work for a quick Sonic All-Star Racing Transformed race and I realized how hard the main menu music goes. I mean, if this doesn't qualify as banger I don't know what does.
I immediately thought "Heh, that's new!" except no, no it is not. Hard slapping main menu music is everywhere. I believe one of the most iconic would be Smash Ultimate, a nice variation on the main theme that didn't need to be as grand as it got and yet it did.
One of my all time favourites is the one from Jazz Jackrabbit 2. I was a child back when the game got released and I was definitely not cultured enough to appreciate it but this is a KILLER song. It just BOPS.
My final soft spot goes to F-Zero GX Selector which feels like something straight out of a "getting geared up" scene from an action movie. You could slap a Vin Diesel voice over it and it would just fit. What an amazing piece.
I am now eager to hear your favourite as well, feel free to share!
