In-Game Music

I hate it in China where you don't have access to youtube.

Zelda Oot (Zelda's Lullaby, Gerudo's Valley, The witches theme)
Chrono Trigger (Magus' theme, Frog's theme, Memories or the sad song the monster plays on the piano)
SSBB (Dunno =_=, something like, uhh, Gerudo's Valley? Main theme is ok too)
Plants vs. Zombies (Particularly Roof)
FFX (Oh god so many good stuff like To Zanarkand, Other world, Baaj temple, random boss battles)
 
Kingdom Hearts has some good music. I especially liked Tension Rising (the song that played when you fought common Nobodies). As well as most of the organization XIII's theme songs. Great music, great series.=D
 
Lately I've been partial to FF8.

Force Your Way
Premonition
The Castle
Maybe I'm a Lion
The Extreme
Eyes On Me

And much more.

Also Final Fantasy Adventure music is freakin epic but I haven't found a clean version on the internet. Too lazy, I guess.

Also... MOTHER 3

DCMC Theme
Theme of DCMC
Bon Voyage, Amigo (I like DCMC. Can you tell?)
I am Porky
Natural Killer Cyborg
GENE 163-1425

Just examples off the top of my head.

I'm too tired to list more right now. I've regarded Chrono Cross and FF6 as my favourite RPG OSTs for a long while.

EDIT: I've also looked back at a couple of videos in which I commented, and I'd like to link this one:

The Steel Samurai (Cadenza cover)

It seriously pisses me off sometimes when someone posts that a certain part of a track "comes from Naruto" or "reminds them of Naruto". I saw a similar comment in the Maybe I'm a Lion link just now. Seriously, please don't do it. You embarrass yourself and potentially insult Japanese culture and music genres by doing so.
 
Cat from Minecraft was a conversation topic for a long while, though the music C418 has made for that game is generally pretty great. Cat just happens to be my favorite track.

But I was thinking of how awesome Street's of Rage's music was and checked the thread to see if anyone has posted it and saw that no one had. I've only played the second one, but my favorite tracks from it are definitely level 1, level 3, and level 8. I used to load up the game on a ROM just to listen to the songs. Level 3 was my favorite as a kid, but 8 might be my favorite nowadays.

I thought I was the only person who enjoyed video game music... I greatly enjoy VG music and the memories that typically accompany them.
I've liked VG music ever since I was a kid, and its always annoyed me. In highshool, I would often "pretend" that I enjoyed mainstream music.
Anyway, pretty much all of the good soundtracks have been mentioned. I'm particularly enjoying the Mother 3 soundtrack right now.
 
The Halo OST's are very, very underrated. They're probably the best part of the series, along with multiplayer. Though of course, I favor the less synthetic variants in the Halo 3, ODST, and Reach soundtracks. Halo 3 is pretty good for nostalgia as it improves upon the synthetic songs of the original and 2's soundtracks.

I enjoy Mass Effect's music. Quirky and definitely science fiction in sound. For older games, I love Metroid Prime's soundtracks, along with most of the music in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.
 
of the games I've played, the ones with the best soundtracks would be Touhou, Umineko and Chrono Cross/Trigger. There are a ton of other games with A++ soundtracks like Guilty Gear/Blazblue, DKC, old Sonic games, etc, but those three are the best in my mind.
 
Pokemon has had many great tracks from the start, but I think they been getting better and better as of lately. DPPt had many loveable tracks (2 routes from the Frontier place, can't remember the numbers, Cynthia's theme). B/W has... well, too many.

Touhou has wayyyy too many great tracks, it's mindblowing. ZUN almost never disappoints. To give two samples, here's Night Falls - Evening Star from TH7.5 Immaterial and Missing power, and this is Magus Night from TH12.8 Fairy Wars. Off the top of my head another great track is Maiden's Capriccio - Dream Battle from TH8 Imperishable Night.

I think almost all the soundtrack of all the Ace Attorneys have been great lol, especially Apollo Justice.

e: oh man Megaman Zero and Megaman ZX had gdlk soundtracks, too. I think ZX's was better.
 
La Mulana has one of the best soundtracks I've ever encountered. Some of the best ones (warning, comments contain spoilers):

Guidance Gate theme: Fearless Challenger
Mausoleum of the Giants theme: Grand History
Spring in the Sky theme: Curse of Iron Pipe
Chamber of Birth theme: Song of Curry
Dimensional Corridor theme: Death Game
Hell Temple theme: Treasure Sealed Off
Baphomet boss theme: Sabbat
Tiamat boss theme: Interstice of the Dimension

The game itself is pretty damn good too. It's a bit like a metroidy game. It's free (google it) but you also need to download the english patch for it. Might not work well on laptops that are more than a year or two old. Has some issues with Windows Vista and Windows 7 but the la mulana wiki has fixes that work most of the time.
 
Plenty of people have mentioned Chrono Trigger, and I know one person mentioned Lucca's Theme. But I can't believe no one has mentioned this. (Lucca's Theme by Danimal Cannon)

This is so good, you could pass it off as real music.
 
my favorite pokemon music will be the gym leader/elite four battle music in Heart Gold and Soul Silver versions even though i dont have these games. i also like the normal battle and R/S/E gym leader version music in Pokemon Colosseum.
