For me maybe 'Automatic' by the Pointer Sisters from GTA Vice City. That song never fails to please me.

My all time favourite has to be from a little known game on the NES called Lunar Pool. It was a pool game with some bizarrely shaped tables and the theme music from the actual game play was awesome; some kind of electro-jazz. I'll never forget that tune, in fact, it's in my head right now.
 
But yeah, great game, great song, very emotional piece that I think sets the tone for the game and war very well. I love how it lulls towards the middle, and then comes back at the end triumphantly.
:)I agree.👍

And then, of course, the entire Shatter soundtrack is epic. Especially this one:

"Argon Refinery"

A truly great soundtrack.👍
Shatter - Krypton Garden

Dragon Age 1 - This Is War by 30 Seconds To Mars. I wish those CGI movies were in the game....

Halo - Halo

Uncharted 2 - Main Theme

Tomb Raider Underworld - Amanda's Ship

Ratchet And Clank: Tools Of Destruction - Ending Theme

Ratchet And Clank: Tools Of Destruction - Groovitron music. 2:40 and 6:30 minutes are my favorites. Reminds me of old 70's disco music that makes you want to move and groove.👍
 




You know what.. Pretty much the entire Vice City soundtrack from Flash FM, V-Rock and Emotion 98.3
 
The best shooter of all (and my favorite game):



From GT5:




GT4 and NFS Underground:


And, of course, V-Rock and K-DST, from GTA.

Surprised no one's mentioned this gem so far. If anyone has, my apologies ...

Gallia! Gallia!


The best PS3 game to date IMO. Getting the Hard Mode DLC soon.
 
Recalling tons of good memories here guys, thanks. 👍

Well, that must be just me but if I'm honest, game sound tracks really marked my life like few other songs did, specially this one:

Chrono Cross : Time's Scar


I've played this game over and over, and recently I've got the OST and all the good songs from the game were there, a tear almost dropped from my face when I heard Time's Scar and all the feelings and memories came back all of a sudden.

Incredible how a silly entertainment can mean so much.
 
-Current of the times (GT5)
-Night Birds (GT5)
-Have you ever loved somebody (GTA4)
-Let it whip (GTA San Andreas)
-Eternal Love 2003 (Moonlit Lovers)

That last one, "Bury Me Not In the Lone Prairie" is just so haunting, I love it.

Video Game Live [/thread]

This guy speaks the thruth. Coincidentally, they just came to Mexico City, and they were awesome. They played the MGS theme, a medley of Final Fantasy, a Mario a capella, the Zelda theme, and then a guy from Japan played Mario blindfolded. They closed with One Winged Angel. People went absolutely nuts.

Really, if you ever have the chance to see them, GO. No matter what.

Oh and also, this thread needs more Katamari Damacy. What are you, people?
