Several good and great OSTs were already mentioned above, but I can't believe nobody mentioned two of the, IMO, greatest game OSTs ever:

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Interstate '76

 

[brandonb]

Tropico 4 has a good soundtrack. Here is the theme song (I think this one is it.)

I mentioned that Jeremy Soules did one of my favorite soundtracks - Total Annihilation, but after that as he has become the top game composer, it seems to me like all his soundtracks are airy, not good soundtracks. I have a hard time understanding the appeal anymore. Does anyone really hum the theme to Skyrim?

 

[Mr. Pedantic]

...I do...

 

[nickbits]

ultima 7

 

[Daverino]

Skyrim and Total Annihilation.

 

[slpnshot]

I can't believe I forgot. GW1.

 

[M0oG0oGaiPan]

quake with the nin soundtrack
maybe one of the gta games. san andreas maybe.

 

[futurefields]

Crysis 2 and 3 are great for that epic blockbuster feel.

 

[Blue_Max]

My two favorites: Total Annihilation and Diablo 2.

TA was freakin' awesome, especially in its day!

And those of us with a Roland MT-32 in the day found Wing Commander a special treat!

[Iron Woode]

The Bioshock series has some wonderful original compositions.

this. and Bioshock 2.

The Ocean on His Shoulders: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp6QpMWaKpE

simply haunting and beautiful.

 

[Whirlwind]

Fallout 3

 

[Revolution 11]

Sonic R had some fun soundtracks. The game was good if you didn't mind the wonky controls but the music was underappreciated I think.

 

[Albatross]

Age of Wonders-amazing gameplay,atmospheric music.

Also the composer worked on Deus Ex.

Heavy in the bl2 intro ,didn't play bl1 looked too cartoon ish but the intro for bl2 blew me away , picked it up on release and loved it.

For a single scene, I loved the marijuana field burning in Far Cry 3. I generally don't like EDM or dub (I mean REALLY don't like) and was amazed to find that I had been rocking out to Skrillex for that scene (and loved it!).

I also seem to recall generally really liking the soundtracks to the original Quake.

 

[TridenT]

Diablo, Tristram music was really good.

Can't speak for much of the rest. It's good for the atmosphere of the area you're going through.

Grim Fandango and Full Throttle.
Actually most of the Lucas Arts adventure games had great music.

Most of the songs in Full Throttle comes from The Gone Jackals 1995 album Bone to Pick. You can get it off iTunes. Not sure if it's still available on CD. The band hasn't been around in a long time.

To the Moon has a great piano soundtrack.

Okami had a great Japanese classical music inspired soundtrack. If you haven't played it, pick up the HD version on PS3.
