I can't believe no one has mentioned Resident Evil 1 yet, IMO one of the best soundtracks of all time.

When you suffer a Falling Sky hit, roll a D6 - on a 4+ the hit is ignored as per the Pinch of Salt save. On a 1-3 panic insues - you automatically fail common sense tests for the next 2 weeks and get +7 to your negativity stat. -Praxiss
I'm really liking the new sound they've come up with for the next game. I actually like this better than the original theme from Bungie's Halo Trilogy, although I feel like a blasphemer for saying it.
Edit: Especially at the 1:37 mark and onwards.

LoneLictor on thread about an ork choking the Emperor:

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.
Overall, going off of OSTs... and this is not an easy choice, because I used to be a radio DJ and, as such, take music very seriously, I'm going to have to go with Persona 3. It has something for everyone, honestly.
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood is probably a close second for me.
If we were going off the beaten path of actual OSTs and into remixes, I'd have to say Chrono Trigger, hands down. their are so many good covers of CT out there.
That said, though... for just a singular song that gets my blood boiling...

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I'm suprised that Chaos Gate hasn't been mentioned given the nature of this forum.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.

Let's see if I can name some that haven't been listed already. I do happen to listen to all sorts of soundtracks. Looking at my mp3 player, I can suggest these ones:
IWD2 wasn't much of a game, expecially if compared to other Infinity Engine titles, but this track is hauntingly beautiful.
Very strong track, it was used for TW1 trailer. I don't think they actually used it in the game - which is quite a pity, imho.
Soule's stuff is always solid, but I think his best work so far has been the Morrowind soundtrack. Skyrim's is a lot more epic in scope, but Morrowind's really sets the mood.
Going a little back in time - before Soule, there was Hülsbeck! Turrican 3 was the only Turrican game I was able to play, but I still remember all the catchy tunes.
Silent Hill 2 had some awesome pieces. It's not complicated music, however its semplicity is probably its strongest point.

'rims real big!....' awwwww mate what a soundtrack!
My top 1 has to be tied between any music from the Mass Effect Trilogy, and the uncharted trilogy. The music in those games just brings the characters and story to life unlike any other game I have ever played, if you have never listened to any albums, do it NOW!

'The bane of a gamers existance '
also makes excellent background music for wargames in my experience.

Guilty Gear comes to mind. Uncharted series is another. And this might be a little obscure, but Wangan Midnight 2 (Maximum Tune 2) is pretty darn catchy as well.
