How about FF6? It's one of those rare games where NONE of the songs are even the least bit MEDIOCRE.

Chrono Trigger / Chrono Cross. Best soundtracks ever, IMO.

Well, I liked Final Fantasy 7's soundtrack a lot(and FF7:Crisis Core, they both have deadly music), and F-Zero X on the N64 had some nice, albeit sorta corny, music on it. =D But thank god you can use custom music on the 360, Forza 2 doesn't have anything I'd call music on it...

I'll give you good ones from the old days: Castlevania 1-4, Donkey Kong Country series, Mega Man 2, Ghost and Goblins, Street Fighter 2 series, kind of obvious but many Mario games had excellent soundtracks in the 2D days.

Mario, Zelda, Final Fantasy, the Chrono series, Mega Man, old school Sonic and Metroid all have great soundtracks. In honorable mention would be Halo.

In terms of best soundtrack of any game I'd say Super Smash Bros Brawl/Melee, and Halo, but since this is the Legacy board I'd have to say Donkey Kong Country 2.

Advent Rising had a great soundtrack. Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath was pretty good. Freedom Fighters has good music, too.

Its hard to narrow it down to just one but i would say it would be the Legend of Zelda Ocarina Of Time, and these games would come after it:Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon,Shadow Of The Colossus,Super Mario Galaxy,Super Castlevania 4, Final Fantasy 7, mario 64, and MGS3.

My favorite game soundtracks are Chrono Trigger, Parasite Eve, and Metal Gear Solid 3. Also, the old Mario games had classic, memorable soundtracks

It might be best listened to while playing the actual game, but I really liked Vagrant Story's soundtrack.

Freedom Fighters - Awesome Choirs. Great music from intro.

Ace Combat 5&Zero - 2 Masterpices. No wonder the soundtracks where sold separetly.

Republic Commando - Has some great choir pices. I have used the menu sound background as my ring in the telephone.

Most definately Final Fantasy 7, without a doubt. In my opinion there is no other soundtrack better than this.

Two others that I like are Devil May Cry 3 and Madworld. Those 3 are my favourites.

This.

Also Yasunori Mitsuda's album called Kirite. It was supposed to be a game, but sadly the OST was the only thing that made it. Yasunori Mitsuda is a genius.

D'oh, I forgot Doom too. Half the songs in it are covers of actual songs. =D Gotta love that 16-bit Pantera and Slayer(even though I don't normally like Slayer. =P).

My favortive game sound tracks are Donkey Kong Country 2.

Other games with good sound tracks are Sonic 1,2,3, Chrono Trigger, Silent Hill 2, FF 7, Zelda games, and anything by Yuzo Koshiro.

Chrono Cross. Definately. Many times I found myself setting down the controller just to savor the amazing music. What makes this soundtrack so great is that the pieces are done by an ensemble, not an orchestra. So instead of having this huge symphony playing the songs, it's just a handfull of instruments. And boy is it done right.

And then Final Fantasy VIII, I'm having the re-orchestrated versions in mind (Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec, something like that).

My favorite pieces would have to be:
Another World Theme- Chrono Cross
Liberi Fatali- FFVIII
Final Fantasy VII Main Theme/Cloud's Theme (re-orchestrated)
Aeris Theme (re orchestrated)

I might add that Odin Sphere has one heck of an opening/main theme.

MGS sound tracks are great, Here's just some of the best.

MGS4 OST -

Everything begins

Atonement

Father and son (EPIC) - anyone who played MGS4 will remeber which scene this music is from ;)

Metal Gear Saga - I think this is the series main theme.

Wow. I just listened to the Father and Son one, and you're right. That is epic. I haven't played any of the MGS games, though I have the first one. I was listening, reading over the comments, and I realized that even not having the associated memories, I had tears in my eyes. Awesome music!!

The Metal Gear Solid 2 Main Theme is also excellent.

I have alot of game songs that I love, is you couldn't tell already. :P

Megaman X1 probably has the best overall music ever. It's a shame Megaman X2-6 couldn't follow X1 with it's kick-ass rock tunes :(! Though those games also had some nice tunes, along with the original Megaman series.

The Golden Sun series also has some great music! :)

Final Fantasy 5-10 also have superb soundtracks. ;)
