15 Greatest Video Game Theme Songs Of All Time

9. Crash Bandicoot

Are there any themes that not only remind you of a character and a game, but an entire platform? Thanks to Sony needing a mascot to front their foray into the world of gaming with the PlayStation, Crash was born.

Plucked from relative obscurity as a character and general ethos Naughty Dog were just starting to experiment with, he became an overnight sensation; a supremely fun hero to embody, watch in motion and delight in seeing him bound around every level.

His theme became indicative of that; a scrappy console with a lot to offer and prove; the underdog that showed disc-based media was the way the world was going. Like Crash, PlayStation would charge ahead with a reckless abandon, establishing a platform that'll still put a smile on your face.
