So many to mention...

Like Vortex22 said, it's impossible to pick "a favorite", there's no such thing, there's instead many favorites, a good number of which would be sitting all on the same podium position. The Diablo II and LoD soundtrack, Rome: Total War, Medieval II: Total War, Mass Effect, MDK2, Knights of the Old Republic, Command & Conquer (the original), Red Alert (the original), C&C Tiberian Sun, Killer Instinct, Perfect Dark, Goldeneye 007, Donkey Kong Country series, Ocarina of Time, A Link to the Past, Turok 1 and 2, Halo series, Super Metroid, Earthworm Jim 1 & 2, Zombies ate my Neighbors, Vigilante 8, Half-Life series, Star Fox series, Super Mario Brothers series, Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout (the original) and Fallout 2...

And so on, and so forth, there's a good bunch of them I mentioned and some more that can be found on YouTube very easily of course, I got a couple in my favorites include a series of my favorite video gaming music I've made myself which I've yet to complete:

Vortal Kombat – HL2 Episode 2, you’re underground, defending Alyx from the antlions, there’s another couple of guys and vortigaunts at the gates with the red lights. When the lights all go red and the music kicks in, the atmosphere is amazing.

TF2 – Rocket Jump Waltz and the Spy song.

Hitman – Jesper Kyd again.

Gunman Chronicles – Intro
