MW2/MW2:Mercs (the real one not the new fangled bad one).

For some reason warcraft II music is my favorite of all Blizzard games. All of their stuff is good, but none of it is as good as warII imo.

The Morrowind theme will always hold a special place in my heart:

Deux Ex intro theme. Best video game music of all time for the best video game of all time. Paris level had music to match the mood/theme very well. Absolutely fantastic work.

The X series had some nice atmospheric music as well. As does Eve-O.

 

[CottonRabbit]

Mirror's Edge, the music really enhances each level of the game perfectly, including the title screen.

[GaryJohnson]

Rock N' Roll Racing

 

[40sTheme]

Halo, Oblivion, MGS, Pokemon.

I'm dead serious about the last one. Tell me you don't like those little 8 bit mono tracks.

 

[ScorcherDarkly]

Mega Man 2 has to be my all-time favorite, followed in some order by Warcraft 2, Homeworld, Fallout 3, and Super Mario Bros 2.

 

[Maximilian]

How can anyone mention anything except Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, amazing sound track!

Thats more really good songs that just happen to be in a game, its not like kim wilde and buggles made those songs for vice city

 

[Intexity]

wow expected someone to point out painkiller...probably the first game i played that i wanted to turn the game music up...

 

[paperfist]

My top soundtracks of all time are the Baldur's Gate series and Transport Tycoon.

http://users.tt-forums.net/jfs/

Transportation Tycoon had that jazzy, upbeat sound to it right?

 

[Lonyo]

Mafia

 

[BladeVenom]

Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines had my favorite soundtrack:
Swamped - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xf8pcDLORY
Isolated - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roZJWKlRVXI
Lecher Bitch - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBhF26LQLX8
Cain - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llm0N7nA3kA
The rest were good also.

The Total War series has always had nice theme music.
Here's the one actual English song from Rome - Forever - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmYWIwlSQiA

The X series had some nice atmospheric music as well.

Some reviews I read sort of bashed the "generic sounding space music".

But I've always felt the X2 music was really cool and added a ton to the immersion factor.

It might be time to revisit my X2 game; I haven't played in a while.

 

[Sureshot324]

Ninja Gaiden 2
Vid has someone doing a speed run of the game while audio plays a playlist of all the best tracks in the game. Pure awsome.

 

[bigi]

System Shock 1.

 

[ScorcherDarkly]

Oooo, I forgot No One Lives Forever. I wouldn't listen to the music by itself, but it fit the theme of the game perfectly.
