*cough* Halo, MGS, and FF.

 

[Hyrulian Hero]

Bloody Tears from Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest, and Grim Reaper's Theme from Shadowgate. And if you search either of them on YouTube you will find all sorts of renditions of them being playing by various instruments/groups/bands.

 

[About To Crash]

Shadow of the Colossus. There is no other, and there never will be.

I found halo 2 was just an updated version of the first halo still great but I think Halo 3 is the best of the bunch.
Mass Effect also has a deceptivly good soundtrack

 

[KrisKing]

Mine will have to be Bioshock's 50's music for creating the scary theme which it does all too well.

...and another... Final Fantasy 7 theme tune 'Cosmo Canyon'.

 

[Durxom]

I quite enjoy:

Raise Thy Sword(Soul Calibur 2) -it just puts you into the mood for an epic fight-

and Open You Heart from Sonic Adventure -the whole series went downhill when Sonic Heroes was released x-x -

[Marble Dragon]

Still Alive, from Portal.
Still Alive, from Mirror's Edge.

Also, in the Waterloo level of Psychonauts, the soundtrack is a version of the 1812 overture. I played that song in band, so it makes me happy to play through that level with the sound effects turned off and the music turned up.

 

[ThatsBitch3n]

Team Fortress 2. The opening themes are just gold!

 

[Ironic]

Damnit how do i embed youtube videos?

EDIT: Nvm, figured it out.



'Nuff Said

 

[The Ambrosian]

The portal credits song of course

 

[CmdrKinslayer]

Dark Messiah and the Spy theme for TF2:

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Painkiller... Pretty much all the battle music is awesome... And a lot of the songs they have in the Tony Hawk games (especially Underground 1) are good...

 

[Geamo]

It has to be the Evil Genius soundtrack. It's awesome.

 

[Emperorpeng]

The Main Theme, Queens Theme, and Wise Owl Forest Theme from Dark Cloud are great. Actually, ALL of the music from that game is great.

Also, the Dragon Roost Island theme from Wind Waker

 

[Captain Pancake]

well, this is a tough one. At first, i thought the techno music from half life 2, but then i was drawn to the ella fitzgerald/jazz muses of fallout 3, yet i also enjoyed the hard rock themes present in the red alert series.

Which to choose? I guess i could give each one a third of arrakis and let them war it out. cookie for the reference.

 

[Captain Pancake]

Ocarina of Time: Lost Woods
Ocarina of Time: Gerudo Valley
Morrowind Theme
Portal: Still Alive
Halo 3 Theme

Damn, now come to think of it, i also enjoyed the morrowind track...

 

[PostOmnis]

Anything Akira Yamaoka! The guy is amazing. Listening to his work from Silent Hill and then listening to his solo work. They artist has become well rounded. My favorite is the Industrial switch to Ambient. IDK about the Rock though...
