I know this isn't exactly a single game soundtrack, but this is the BEST game music ever made. Let me link you to a few tracks.

Yeah.

I liked the Somnus the best, love the moody piano part. Really hope the game has a tragic ending.

[WilyRook]

I posted Ghouls N Ghosts, thats Ghosts N Goblins.

I really like SuperGNG on the snes too, though.

Ah, my bad. I glossed over the titles and just assumed each video was from a different part of the game. I didn't have enough time to watch the full clips before.

 

[-Amon-]

In no particular order:

Turrican for the Amiga
Gran Turismo 1 Japanese ed ( Moon over the Castle owns )
Super Mario World 5 for the SNES
Metal Gear Solid Psx
God of war 3

 

[Sidewinder]

- Okami (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3_uOagQNnE marvelous all around)

- Shadow of the Colossus (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3PRXFLJYcw just epic!)

- Final Fantasy VII (I guess everybody knows this one )

- Colony Wars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDyxT6Um7-A OMG goosebumps!)
By the way, this must be one of the only dubbed games that beats the original version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ck8a-JkqdBc

- Silent Hill 3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZmMD84XpCs)

- Metroid Prime (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szP9V3JQYCY&feature=related)

- Turrican II (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYamOeQWLNg)

Not enough Jesper Kyd-love in here

This was the first game where I actually paid attention to the soundtrack.

The Opera-mission was beautifully executed. Atmosphere, Music and pure awesomeness all roled into one.

I even tried to time the hit on the operasinger with the music.
Felt like i was directing a movie. And it was badass.

The piece from the Opera-mission is this one:

Apocalypse

So intense.

 

[DevilWillcry]

Mine:
1. Shadow of the Colossus
2. God of War (series)
3. Kingdom Hearts (series)
4. Metal Gear Solid (series)
5. Uncharted (series)
6. Silent Hill (series)
7. Ico
8. Heavy Rain
9. Halo (series)
10. Killzone 2

 

[Danne-Danger]

I can't even remember if Killzone 2 had any music at all, you're going to have to justify that choice.

 

[Messi]

Metal Gear Solid - Series (Especially 3)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fGJy0LHJpQ&feature=related
Note: This in my opinion is the best song ever composed for a videogame. When I heard this song for the first time I realized that I would never experience a game like mgs3 again, and that the game was finally over . I LOVE snake eater. This song is just so epic.

Hitman Series (blood money)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo7AFEffnj4&feature=related
Note: I know this song is not only in hitman, but it just fits the mood so perfectly. Jesper Kyd is amazing. His Assassins creed soundtracks are also amazing.

Honourable mentions:
Heavy rain, character themes were great.
Halo, Always has an amazing epic score.

 

[MomoPufflet]

1. Area 88 / UN Squadron (Super Famicom/SNES) <---legendary
2. Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter (PS2)
3. Chrono Cross (PSone)
4. Chrono Trigger (SNES)
5. Final Fantasy VII (PSone)
6. Valkyrie Profile (PSone/PSP)
7. Halo (Xbox)


Probably forgetting a ton.

I can't even remember if Killzone 2 had any music at all, you're going to have to justify that choice.

Killzone 2 had really good music, if you don't remember it at all well sucks for you, and I don't see anyone else having to justify their opinions.

Hey now I just wanted a clip of his choice.

5 favourites off the top of my head.

Silent Hill 2
Easily some of Yamaoka's best and hauntingly atmospheric compositions.
Sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGeUIQbtKt0&feature=PlayList&p=3701130022801F23&index=4

Silent Hill: Shattered Memories
Although Yamaoka's insrumental tracks are a bit bland compared to his previous work, the tracks featuring Mary E. McGlynn are godlike!
Sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93RT0VTIphI

Shadow Man
I've always had a soft spot for the Tim Haywood's Shadow Man-soundtrack. It's amazingly weird and obscure.
Sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyca_V2osy4&feature=related

The Longest Journey
Wonderful atmosphere - subtle, melancholic and mysterious.
Sample: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKwN1fmgkrI

Grim Fandango
Exquisite!

See that's a pretty nice track, and I can't remember it at all. :lol

I guess it's from that sniper section in the desert?


Reminded me of Syphon Filter for some reason (though they're really not similar at all). Good music though.

Base Tower
Well Done
Washington Park

 

[kevm3]

What I've heard of FF13's music is unbelievably awesome.

Final Fantasy Tactics is nice, Chrono Trigger is great... Chrono Cross has some wonderful songs. Xenogears. Saga Frontier II. Final Fantasy 6... Square has had some of the best soundtracks I've ever heard.

Let's not forget about Dragon Quest 7 and Okami.

 

[JaseC]

 

[kevm3]

One of the absolute best soundtracks was the Tenchu 1 soundtrack... Loved it.

What I've heard of FF13's music is unbelievably awesome.

I love it. It might be my favorite FF soundtrack after 6's.

 

[VeryGooster]

Silent Hill 3 Bonus!

Bonus!

And my absolute favorite game album to listen to:

Welcome to Our Town!

 

[ili0926]

I finally opened up the vinyl that came with the Bioshock 2 Special Edition...

Cohen's Masterpiece is SO good. I want to learn how to play it, though I quit piano 2 years ago =(
