Have you ever bought the OST for a game? If so, which game was it?

Now, I mean a game that you actively seeked out the soundtrack for. A soundtrack that you just HAD to have. I own a ton of OST but only because they were included with a game.

My first OST was The Neverhood Soundtrack

I'm sure Armikrog will be my next.

Feel free to share your favorites.

Bastion. I own a lot of games with soundtracks because I'm a sucker, but I actually got the Bastion soundtrack separately through Amazon so I could download it anywhere. Transistor's was good too- I don't think it was quite as strong, but still good.

I never bought any game OST, but I have heard a lot the Payday/Hotline Miami soundtracks

My first OST that I ever owned is the Little Inferno OST by Kyle Gabler, the game itself is very pretty but the OST is so beautiful, and the best thing is that the OST is actually free to download from the developers' web!
Little Inferno is by far my favorite Indie game of the last years, and the soundtrack doesn't hold back either.

Hmmm.... I don't remember, because I already did it when I was much younger but it might be NFS Underground. Shits is fire, yo.

As for more recent Hotline Miami and FTL.

I bought the collector's edition of Bioshock 2 because I absolutely wanted it's OST.
It's terrific although a bit "old style"!
In the box you can find the cd version (in a black vinyl-like color) and an original vinyl disc :3

You asked.

Even for games where I really enjoyed the soundtracks, I just can't imagine listening to them again outside of the game. I think the only one I ever have was for Bastion, but its not really something I'd put on my mp3 player.

The only OST I've bought is the NIER soundtrack. That game has some great music!

I think there is no game OST to buy in my country, maybe i'm wrong. But I would buy some.

I've never bought an ost, but I have ripped one for use as background music in another thing. It was the Chaos gate soundtrack

If you don't count osts that came with the game anyway, in that case I've got a handful.

I CONSTANTLY listened to the Mechwarrior 2 (and Ghost Bear's Legacy) soundtrack that was on the disc itself back when data was on track 1 of a CD and CD audio was recorded onto the disc from track 2.

Purchased OST: Official MGS2 OST from a little Japanese import shop (in a very-rare Japanese shopping center in the suburb of Chicago). I looked for the Shadow of the Colossus OST, but by that time downloading mp3s was much easier.

Honorable mention: MIDI music of various NES and SNES titles

The first game's soundtrack I cared for (and so far almost the only as I rarely care for a game's music) and put some effort in to have was the one for Machinarium

Great music. Listen to it here: http://store.floex.cz/album/machinarium-soundtrack

The first soundtracks I owned were the Donkey Kong Country and Killer Instinct OSTs, both came with the games. So fucking good. The first one I actively sought out and HAD TO HAVE was the Silent Hill OST. It was very difficult to acquire at the time (where I lived, anyway), so it wasn't cheap. After that I got the soundtracks of SH 2 and 3, Final Fantasy VII, Resident Evil 1 and 2, as well as a symphony orchestra recording of music from the Resident Evil games.
