With gaming often bringing me into a really depressive headspace sometimes with how the markets are developing, whats a game you can always go to and just be lost in, or just be happy with?

Personally i would go for advance wars 1 and 2 on the gba (there is no remake and never will be)

the artstyle, the music, the game-play is just simple, yet effective, a sublime experience of very fun times.

Whats yours?

Mitsuda might just rank as my favorite video game composer of all time, and it's largely due to his work in Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross. As time goes on and I discover more games he's had a hand in, my opinion really only grows stronger.

What a legend.

Hard yes. There's just so much there. I've listened to ochestral versions and all sorts of newer takes (poo poo fart and smooth mcgroove have some particularly good ones), and I keep going back to the soundtrack directly from the game. It's just so good.

Another one that's great right on the original hardware is the soundtrack from vectorman. So energetic, and the texture is just amazing. I guess by great I mean has a lot of artistic merit, because obviously they're all enjoyable the way they were in the games, but some of them are on just another level.
