I like much of the music from Halo, especially One Final Effort [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fX63z4acmUo] (the track from the second half of the final level of 3), the main theme itself (Mjolnir mix or original, even Rock Anthem for Saving the World), I also love the Finish the Fight [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFOJ13sw8o4] track.
They're all just very "ZOMG! DEEDS WORTHY OF SONG!", like the Superman theme
I also agree with Xandus117, and would like to add Metroid, especially the original Brinstar theme
oh, and Big Blue, the Star Fox theme, Star Wolf theme, the SSBM intro [Hell, almost every piece of music in the SSB series)

Brutal Legend had a pretty good soundtrack, and Skate 2 was a nice collab of different styles.
Mass Effect's soundtrack was solid too, nice range of sweeping, slow stuff (Like on the Presidium) and fast paced action stuff (i.e. climax of the Virmire mission)
And I know they aren't games, but... The Breakfast Club and The Crow have 2 of the best soundtracks I have ever heard in my entire life.

I had forgotten how good the Halo soundtrack was- THe guitar version from Halo 2 is amazingly epic (the full 6 min long one) MGS2 For me was the best HGW score. And thats it for me- but considering I can rember every note of those songs cosidering they are bith a number of years old says alot.
And I'll bet that's the only Ink Spots song you know. And chances are you only found out about them throughout either Fallout or Bioshock (yes, a few of their songs were used in Bioshock before Fallout 3), and I'll bet you didn't know that!TheNamlessGuy said:
As for me, the one game soundtrack I've never gotten sick of is Breath of Fire III. All of the music in that game is pure gold. Possibly one of the best soundtracks in an RPG.
I found the soundtrack of TS:FP disappointing after the much under-rated soundtrack of Timesplitters 2 and the original Timesplitters (the same applying for the the games themselves too, but that's another story). There's some brilliant electro in there amongst other things.Daveman said:

I know. That scale intro, right? I once sat down and listened to their entire discography, and there were literally 4 songs that didn't start off with that same intro but with an altered pitch or speed.TheNamlessGuy said:
Well years ago, I managed to get hold of all their songs from peer2peer sharing (wrong I know, but try and find them anywhere else). That and my father has a few old Spots vinyls.TheNamlessGuy said:
