What's the worst game soundtrack?

I ask this because as I was reading the theme song thread I made, I started to wonder if there was ever a whole complete soundtrack I didn't like. There was always one or two bad songs I didn't like (like Far Cry 3's dubstep bullshit), but rarely a whole entire soundtrack.

EDIT: The original content was removed because of the sweet fuck-ness that is Crazy Bus. Holy fucking shit...
 
All of these racing games with licensed soundtracks consisting of god awful bone headed agro bro rock, just beyond insufferable.
 
LOLOL, FFXIII and Halo 4 are the worst game soundtracks. And The Persistence of Memory is the worst painting ever. The Scarlet Letter is probably the worst novel ever. And Yo-Yo Ma sucks so bad.

I would say Sonic: The Dark Brotherhood because I think there were technical issues and the soundtrack did not mix correctly.
 
Sonic : The Dark Brotherhood OST is probably one of the most awful in the category of games in popular franchise made by a well known dev.

Edit: well I'm not the only with that opinion I see.

You forgot to mention that The Godfather is probably the worst movie ever made and The Lord of the Rings is the worst fantasy universe ever made.
 
You are asking about the "worst" soundtrack. The soundtrack of FFXIII is the WORST soundtrack you have ever heard in your whole life?

Believe it or not, for me, it's actually hard to think of a "worse" soundtrack out of all the games I played. And, I've played a lot of games throughout my life so far.

And holy shit at Crazy Bus...
 
Although I'm a big fan, the Dynasty Warriors games have always had soundtracks that wear my ears out.

Edit: Wow! Nothing like the track above me- that's annoying!
 
"Worst"? Probably Deadly Premonition...but it gets points for being so absurdly inappropriate that it's still enjoyable.

Most disappointing for me personally? SMT: Strange Journey. I know this soundtrack has its fans, and I appreciate that it's truly something "different", but the endless barrage of grunts gets old after a while and it all starts to sound the same to me. "Oooh eeee oooh eeee ooooh aaaaaah", so on and so forth. Again, not the worst soundtrack I've heard by any stretch, but given the series' track record I was let down.
 
J-pop and electronic music in FFXIII? Are you thinking of FFXIII-2? The only thing close to that in FFXIII is the Chocobo Theme in Cocoon.

Halo 4's soundtrack sounds so generic and boring.

I mean listen to the damn theme! I don't enjoy wailing.

Marty is the better composer.
 
Actually, instead of soundtrack, and instead of the "worst of all time", I'd like to make a note of this song specifically from Pokemon Black and White.

Ghetsis

For the most of it, it is merely just tons of drums going off with the occasional "Ghetsis". It's like an awfully done One Winged Angel, and for most of it, it doesn't even sound like music.

Holy shit. This cannot be real. Was the game as awful as the music?

yes.
 
Can you feel sunshine guys? Can ya feeeeeeel it!?
