What do you like so much about game music anyway, Pensive? Is it the lack of lyrics? 'Cause not all normal music has lyrics.
Nah, plenty of game songs have lyrics, and I like lots of other types of music also. I don't really think I like it any more than normal stuff, but I'm exposed to a lot more of it than I am exposed to new non-game songs, and therefore I collect more of it.
The presence of sh*tloads of orchestra doesn't hurt.

I love game music because it reminds me of the games. You can never get tired of Bolero of Fire.
Some songs are also like that, but I don't even remember when most of the things I listen to play in the game. They're just generally powerful and moving pieces. If I knew more about music terminology I could describe it better.
The last boss' song in Okami is like that. It fits absolutely perfectly for the fight and never fails to make me happy. It's ultimately what made me change my rating of it from a 9.4 to a 10.
