Anyone else love the Carpenter-esque 80's synth soundtrack?! Not sure how many gamers will check this thread, but it reminded me a lot of Far Cry:Blood Dragon.
shareI was just going to post this exact thing. The score was a great 80s throwback with all the synthesizers. I loved it, I wish more movies nowadays sounded like this one.

Ram this in your clambake, bitchcakes!
Parts of it reminded me of the original Mass Effect(which is inspired heavily by 80's Sci-fi).
Both of those remarks are spot on to me. Having finally played through Blood Dragon only a few weeks ago, its atmosphere very much was still resonating a fair bit. I was reminded of it immediately. Also I'm a huge fan of John Carpenter's scores. I think The Machine pulled off that 80s sci-fi vibe beautifully without being cheesy or clichéd at all.
shareThe synthwave soundtrack is an homage to the score for "Blade Runner".
shareI thought so too. I noted in a previous comment it had a bit of a Vangelis feel. Like a vamped up Vangelis. Really, really liked this movie ad the score is excellent.
shareI agree with regularfellow; the soundtrack is heavily inspired by Bladerunner. Both films have that ominous, slow building undertone.
shareYep I thought the whole movie had a 80s scifi vibe not just the soundtrack.
shareYup. Kickass sountrack!
shareThe music stuck out to me like a sore thumb. Listening to the ending credits and it has that wonderful "heavenly" synth sound.
I have FC:BD, but haven't gotten to it yet since I'm still on FC3.
