What game music do you like?

The ones that usually gets stuck in my head are the Sonic the Hedgehog tunes...I think they're alright...

I like creepy stuff so I like the "Thief" series of music made by Eric Brosius.

Sure, it has a couple of themes and it *is* well produced, but given the scope of the game, I'm surprised it was lacking so much. It's one of the few cases of just not having enough (then again, I never really liked that game. Every NPC was like Keanu Reeves - a plank of wood). </rant>

I very much agree with you. Every now and then I'll get down from the loft my old Chrono Trigger and give it a play just to hear that music!

I think the music from Nintendo 64's Yoshi Story is cute and fits the game very well. That samba at the end, when you get through all the stages, blows my mind. The composer to that game (Kazumi Toda) said he wrote all the pieces while munching on dried squid.

I like Sly 3; Honor Among Thieves' music. It's really amazing if you ask me.

Is that the online only one?

Final Fantasy FTW!
Personally I prefer the music in FF VIII (8), but yeah, Uematsu Nobuo really knows how to create some moods ^_^

Also, the music in Metal Gear Solid / 2 is very atmospheric

Half-Life
Anachonox
Hitman: Contracts
Lineage II
Knights of the Old Republic (although its highly derivative of John Williams, and it's not something Jeremy Soule can control, since that's what was asked of him)
Unreal Tournament series
Metal Gear Solid series
Silent Hill series
Vagrant Story

Final Fantasy - the village theme

SuperMario - a lovely bit - I don't know what it's called - I'd better look tomorrow
