Unrelated, but this came up:

Ranking of soundtracks for the first 6 (for me):

1. (Best) 2
2. 6
3. 3
4. 4
5. 1
6. 5

I won't rank all 10 until I finish 7 (stuck on Guts Man G), but 7 and 9 have catchy soundtracks.

EDIT: wait this isn't the ranking topic

oh damn you put that edit in there and i didn't notice

Anyways, my Mega Man Classic series soundtrack ranking (not including MM&B or the GB titles):

1. 5
2. 6
3. 3
4. 2
5. 7
6. 9 (a lot of it is really, really samey to me)
7. 1
8. 10 (would probably be below 4 if the Mega Man Killer stage themes and Cybersheep's Dream weren't in here)
9. 4
10. 8 (but it's not really hot garbage)

[close]

EDIT: oh screw it now it's on my mind

here's the X series too, not including both Xtremes (they'd be at the bottom) or Command Mission (that soundtrack's lit tho)

1. X5
2. X6 (amazing for the messy game it comes from)
3. X4
4. X7 (surprisingly really good even though it's...y'know, X7)
5. X8 (pretty good but that guitar gets ooooooold)
6. X (classic but hard to listen to at times)
7. X2 (whiny)
8. X3 (boooooring)

1. 5
2. 6
3. 3

Good man.

6. 9 (a lot of it is really, really samey to me)

if you find it so same-y then why is it above 10

8. 10 (would probably be below 4 if the Mega Man Killer stage themes and Cybersheep's Dream weren't in here)

:\

Nitro Rider, Solar Inferno, King of Blades, For You, Abandoned Memory, Against the Pressure, No Turning Back, Wily Machine Battle, Staff Roll...

[LeviR.star]

I might as well rank the GB titles by their soundtracks now.

1. (Best) IV
2. Dr. Wily's Revenge
3. II
4. V
5. III

[Dudeman]

Solar Inferno, No Turning Back, Wily Machine Battle, Staff Roll

agh okay fine, swap 1 and 10
EDIT:

1. (Best) IV
2. Dr. Wily's Revenge
3. II
4. V
5. III

3. II

I'M SORRY WHAT

[WaluigiTime64]

1. (Best) IV
2. Dr. Wily's Revenge
3. II
4. V
5. III

Swap II and V and I'll agree.

Also I just realised that Dudeman called 9's soundtrack too "samey", even though it was based off 2's soundtrack and is far less samey than 2.

[Dudeman]

WAIT SLOW DOWN SINCE WHEN IS II'S SOUNDTRACK BETTER THAN III'S

DO YOU HAVE EARS

[WaluigiTime64]

I actually don't care which one of the two is at the bottom, because they're so bad I don't remember either.

[Dudeman]

at least III is in an octave that's audible to humans
like seriously I have no idea what's so bad about III help

[LeviR.star]

WAIT SLOW DOWN SINCE WHEN IS II'S SOUNDTRACK BETTER THAN III'S

DO YOU HAVE EARS

While I will admit that II's soundtrack was too high-pitched, if you lower everything an octave and give it III-V instruments it's kinda catchy. This video shows that.

I'd also like to point out that Mega Man II's soundtrack is completely original, even if some songs like GB Top Man sound like NES Needle Man.

Also, III didn't have much of a soundtrack to begin with. Seriously, I just finished arranging all of it and it was easy. But Title Screen, New Weapon, and Wily Stage 2 were pretty good. But I personally would have liked III to take Dr. Wily's Revenge path and remix the Robot Master stage themes.

Mega Man Classic Series Main Game Soundtracks:
1. 5 (they're just comfortable to listen to)
2. 10 (everything)
3. 6 (it's difficult choosing between 10 and this. The diversity in both is beautiful, especially considering 6 only had one composer)
4. 3 (really good, but lacking in some areas, mainly Wily Stage themes)
5. 9 (the triangle pulse is too quiet, making good compositions hard to listen to)
6. 4 (bad drums but really good compositions)
7. 1 (it's alright but nothing too amazing)
8. 7 (it's alright but not too amazing either)
9. 2 (too samey, mediocre chiptuning (Password just hurts my ears), and Dr Wily Stage 2 has to play in 3 stages and that just sucks)
10. 8 (it's really not too bad, but it's lacking in a bunch of spots and only has a few amazing songs)

10. 8 (it's really not too bad, but it's lacking in a bunch of spots and only has a few amazing songs)

hey look, it's the gen 6 soundtrack all over again
