Then I highly recommend picking up the Oblivion soundtrack. The movie got mixed reviews but I loved it. The music was my favorite part I think. Has a very nice Classical/Electronic combo vibe going on. Think if the Dark Knight Rises and Tron Legacy had a baby.

You can listen free to the whole album at the below link.

    I love the Oblivion soundtrack. Bought it as soon as it came available on Amazon for download. Probably going to pick the movie up this weekend.

    I have only seen it once, but I started spouting off scenes lol...made me feel like I was watching a great game play out.

    Awesome, see the movie too! Soundtrack awesomely complements the movie IMO.

    I have a Pandora station full of movie soundtracks, and I've heard one or two tracks from this.

    But I see "Oblivion" and I think Elder Scrolls. Can't help it.

    If we are talking about nerd music then I think by law we are obligated to mention the "Mortal Kombat" sound track. That movie was terrible but the music they made for it was awesome.

    Oh and "Still Alive" the song at the end of "Portal" and "Now I only Want You Gone" the song at the end of "Portal 2." "Still Alive" is the better of the two songs but both are great.

    I have not heard the Portal songs, i will have to check them out. And yes, Mortal Kombat immediately conjures up that bad *kitten* theme from the movie. And I loved the movies so I have no complaints.

    My IRL friends give me wierd stares at work when they ask what I'm listening too and I say "Metal gear solid radio".
