Great games with bad music?

Are there any games you've played that you really enjoy, but you don't like their music? The first one that comes to my mind is Sonic Rush. The game is a blast, but I find most of the music annoying. The music itself is OK, but it's the inane, mostly unintelligible vocals that ruin it for me. I know a lot of people like Rush's soundtrack, but it just bugs me.

  • Splatoon 2. The songs are great, but the fact that you only hear 3 or 4 of them in the entire story mode (which has about 30 levels, counting bosses) gets kind of old.

  • Honestly, I don't really dislike the music for any good game that I can currently remember. The music closest to bad that I can think of is in the NSMB series. I probably wouldn't even mind it at all if it hadn't been reused for every game in the series. I'll be sure to comment if I think of anything else.

  • Need For Speed Hot Pursuit (2010). The Game is Fantastic but the musics are just boring.

  • Music is usually one of the things I focus on a lot with a game, but I think Samus Returns' soundtrack was a little underwhelming.

  • So far it's Paper Mario(and TTYD to a Small extent) Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Twilight Princess, Wind Waker HD(I like nearly every GC version song better) Fire Emblem: Awakening and Hyrule Warriors.

    It's hard to think of any, games with bad music are usually bad as well. Breath of fire 3 is a stretch, worst battle/boss theme in any RPG I've played, but I ended up hating the game too... Perhaps DKC3? I still like several themes in it. Secret of mana 2 has very underwhelming music overall. It doesn't match the quality of the game.

    Average or bad games with amazing music seem to be much more common, for whatever reason.

    ^thats because most composers just work for whatever games they can, there's very few composers out there who can be selective with what they work on and still make a profit.

  • MX vs ATV Untamed on the Wii. The game had 22 songs, but there were only 1 or 2 songs that I thought were actually decent. The rest, well, let's just say I'd expect those kinds of songs from a high school garage band. Other than that, the game was an absolute blast. I still play it every now and then

  • I would probably say the " Finale Toccata " theme from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. You know where u travel the upside-down castle that u here that theme for most of the rooms. I still adore SotN though, but that theme gets annoying. They could've brought back any of the old Castlevania themes from 1, 3 & 4. Shoot, make the remix of Rondo of Blood theme back.

  • Funny, the only thing I like about Sonic Rush is the soundtrack.

  • why did you delete my comment :( oh well my favriote game was super mario run but their music is just the same glad they had a update to put your music in the game

  • The raps for all of Knuckles levels in Sonic adventure 2. Not a fan of rap music, the vocals don't do the songs much justice, its just noise that adds to the cacophony of other sound effects like the constant "wooshing" you do while gliding and the dinging of the radar alerting you that a chunk of green rock is near. Pumpkin hill is a guilty pleasure though, perfect amount of cheese and dat piano

  • Also I was able to play a couple of fighting games and some have some... interesting choices for music. Blazblue- Black Onslaught: I didn't even know it was english. Just low growly angry noises with guitars and drums. Dante's theme in MvCi: "Hey devils never cry was cool but what if we add wubs to it!"- The intern at Capcom. Juri's theme in SF5: Just pure noise and disgust.
