Top Computer Game Soundtracks of 2004 compiled by Soundtrack.net
The Incredibles (Michael Giacchino) - Michael Giacchino (along with Chris Tilton and Tim Simonec) essentially re-wrote and re-adapted his score to The Incredibles for the computer game. The structure of the cues are basically the same, but the themes are different. It's just as good as the original, but in a bizarro-world / alternate-universe way. No official CD release, yet. Headhunter / Headhunter Redemption (Richard Jacques) - This two-CD release from La-La Land Records with tons of action music that is, "James Bond meets Spy Hunter meets Metal Gear with a touch of Basil Poledouris". Either way you look at it, it's a fun-filled listen.

James Bond: Everything or Nothing (Sean Callery) - "24" composer Sean Callery took a stab at the Bond videogame, and the result is a techno-edged action score that would make David Arnold look twice. Included is a fun song by Mya that is a throwback to the Bond films of old. No official release, yet.

Republic: The Revolution (James Hannigan) - James Hannigan's score to this game is a huge choral work that also has plenty of solo performances, both vocal and instrument. It makes a nice companion piece to Jesper Kyd's Freedom Fighters score.

Mercenaries'' (Michael Giacchino / Chris Tilton) - Michael Giacchino wrote the main themes for LucasArts' Mercenaries. Tilton filled out the rest of the score. La-La Land Records provides the release.
