Really like Saturns Baroque soundtrack, very Vangelis:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-t52hBOMYc

Best song odd it.

Enemy Zero has a ridiculously good soundtrack, best track imo:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmvlqLHh6Cs

Was blown away by Pleather for Breakfast in No More Heroes:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TX9o6uZnEs

Best song off the best videogame OST, Panzer Dragoon Saga:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18oAapHCBnQ

Can't have a list without Hitoshi Sakimoto, my favourite track of his from Soukyugurentai:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z86HC9Tqx8

Some 8-bit from the finest 8-bit soundtrack ever, Megaman 2:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bsz0UIRs-J4

Some J-pop cheese from Persona 3:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhXXJRRHKGw

And no list is complete without something from Shadow of the Colossus:

In no particular order...

First up is Aeris Theme from Final Fantasy VII, mainly due to the emotions it brought about fighting Jenova moments after Aeris' death

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q85KIhPXrIQ

Next, is the opening music from one of the games I will never forget. It was the very first 16 bit game I ever played and it will leave long in my memory - the opening theme for Streets of Rage 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXQzyVy9fYM

next, is from the very first level of one of my favorite games of all time, and will forever be in my top 10...multiplayer was an absolute hoot - the Facility level music from Goldeneye

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKqUWac89dw

next is music from a very recent game, however it is the song itself which reflected the events in the game which was perfection - Deadman's Gun from Red Dead Redemption

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkAvVqjbUG8

Next, again from one of my favorite games, its a piece of music that will always stay with me, Tristram Village from Diablo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvvXsreyo30

And finally, to bookend my reply, another piece from the genius that is Nobuo Uematsu. if, by chance, I forget everything about Final Fantasy VII, the story, the characters, the world etc...there will always be one thing that I remember...a piece of music known as One-Winged Angel

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2clo9Cu6NjU

PaddyBomb · 31-07-2010 9:18am

Heavy Rain - Ethan Mars Theme.

On mobile so cant post a youtube video but its a great theme.

NotorietyH · 31-07-2010 10:39am

Don't know how anyone hasn't mentioned Still Alive from Portal yet! :P

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6ljFaKRTrI

The Infamous closing credits song is one of my favourites

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAkCHNjK8JE

The opening of Borderlands with Ain't No Rest for the Wicked

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dX-1MjpZZN0

There were some great music choices in Alan Wake too.

And seeing as someone mentioned Heavy Rain, here's a song that was inspired by it. Spoilers for the start of Heavy Rain in it though!

One of the many things Super Metroid did so very well, it's music was creepy as **** in places...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIwG-BH3DeE

First heard this during Max's level in the MDK2 demo, thought it was pretty cool, at least back in 2000. Definitely suited the more frenetic nature of his levels though...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7UzgvogWiI

I ****ing loved everything about Donkey Kong...except those rotating barrels in the mountains...
