I really like the soundtrack to Suikoden. Maybe it's nostalgia, but it's one of the better ones for me.

And lunar silver star story is pretty good too.

Megaman 2 still reigns supreme IMO. The most consistent soundtrack for any video game ever. Bangers end-to-end.

Sexy Parodius is also fantastic. It's a demented mix of jacked up, synthesized classical and folk tunes. This is probably my favorite track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlRO9Q0dbQA&list=PLAdIErLpAnQCc5Mk19_MAyeV5bMGsFRpG&index=24 The synth-sax is incredible!

pictionary nes. trust me. wave race 64 but slow it down to 56% speed. waterworld, platoon, alcahest, evergrace spiderman nes - first level, solar jetman, aerobiz supersonic, uncharted waters, dune msdos

i could go on

Cyberpunk has ton of awesome tracks

Pon Pon Shit

final fantasy, anything thats NOT 7 simply because its played to death.

Ape Out really only has the one song... but it is perfectly utilized to puncuate the gameplay experience.

I think nothing top the JRPGs. My current favs would be Nier: Replicant & Nier: Automata. There's also this rather obscure game I love called Ar Tonelico in which the music is part of the story; of course that wouldn't do if the music suck.

Other than that, I love the entire soundtracks for both Cult of the Lamb as well as Stray.

Nobody's mentioned this one yet, perhaps because it's a bit obscure, but Vib-Ribbon (PS1) has such a unique and endearing OST. I never played the game, but I heard one of the songs and got totally hooked.

Destiny 2 has some fantastic pieces. Deep Stone Lullaby, Journey, Aethenasia (sp?) to name a few.

Literally every Supergiant game.

None mentioned (all links are yt) Axiom Verge (s), Defcon, Element4l, Furi, Giants Citizen Kabuto, Painkiller, Risk of Rain (s), Speed Runners, They Bleed Pixels, Wildstar or any Zachtronics so far.

• Bravely Default kicks with both special and battle themes (go give vagrant of love a try)

-Gran Turismo 4 suuper nice menu themes i especially like hypnosis, the motorious zone, don't kick yourself and be at home

Super Monkey Ball 2 - not in the sense that I'd want to sit and listen to them, but they really fit the game super well. And I've heard them sampled in actual songs before... Also as YouTube video background music many times.

Civ 3 has my fav soundtrack. My favorite is this gem you get in the modern era:

OTXO and what's even more impressive is that the developer of the game made the music himself! GhostRunner had a bangin' ass soundtrack too.

Planescape Torment and Icewind Dale. Not all the tracks but many of their tracks are great. I play them on the loop.

Also The Witcher has great soundtracks, I often play them on the loop while I was working.

Unreal

Subnautica. Love the atmosphere that the music conveys.

Pillars of eternity 1 and 2, octopath traveler, Chrono trigger, streets of rage, sonic 1-3, and doom eternal were all pretty amazing
