For me, just like with any music, the darker the better.

My favourites, off the top of my head, are as follows:

Soul Reaver
King's Field IV
The Darkness
Fable
Martian Gothic: Unification
Diablo
Doom
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

I don't really listen to video game soundtracks often, except for Quake II. I actually like that one better than the first one.

 

06/11/11 11:37 AM

I've never played the game itself, but I think Akira Yamaoka and Skinny Puppy contributed to some of the Silent Hill soundtracks.

 

06/11/11 10:00 PM

Myst and Riven are the best I think

Such a topic requires a mention of Final Fantasy. Especially when Uematsu was still doing them.
Also, I absolutely love King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match's soundtrack.

Frozen Synapse is pretty damn good in my opinion.

Bioshock and Fallout 3 have really good swing and jazz that make up part of the atmosphere.

Square Enix has some beautiful soundtracks for their games.. Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Chrono series.

Top Gear for the super nintendo had some really funky shit
Top Gear

and this song always stuck out to me in such a unserious but classic gameDonkey Kong

Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams has a great soundtrack. Evey game in the series does, really, but this one sticks out as above the rest.

 

07/02/11 6:11 AM

WipeOut
WipeOut 2097
Wip3Out

etc. Not all of the series are good games (2097 being the best in terms of speed and gameplay), but I bought all of it, just for the music.

All the Ratchet and Clank series, Specially Crack through time coz you can change the stations when you're in the ship

While only a fringe Silent Hill fan, I have to say this would be awesome to own.

Besides classics like Zelda, Chrono Trigger & American McGee's Alice, some recent favourite games have had awesomely unique soundtracks like The World Ends With You, Muramasa: The Demon Blade.
& Joe Hisaishi (the dude who scores Hayao Miyazaki's best films) did the soundtrack for a game studio Ghibli did with Level 5, called Ni no Kuni? (The Another World) & it is on par with some of the best cinematic scoring.

What, wait huh?!? A Studio Ghibli GAME?!?!? How did I not hear of this?!? (Sorry been Miazaki Fan since Nausica when I was a kid (Was called Wariors of the Wind back then) even if it was a butchered version of the film it got me hooked on Anime)

Agreed.

I have Morrowind and Oblivion on my itunes, and I cannot wait to get my hands on the Skyrim ost CD (which I pre-purchased last week).

But if anyone wants to listen to it now, check this out-
