So what are your favourites soundtracks in a game ?
Imo, Diablo2 ones are the best, it also won some prizes btw. And I love Quake 3 too, the mix of techno/heavy metal is something superb 
~~
And they never get repetitive. I also like Resident Evil 3's ones, they can really make u feel for the disaster and frighten you as I never seen in another game (havent played D3 yet btw 
)
I would have to say Battlefield Vietnam... 60's and 70's music kicks ass but orginal music was simcity 4
super mario bros 
C&C wins.

OMG your right ! 
Sim citys musics are cool, but tend to get a bit boring after a while.
Quake 2 / Quake 3 soundtracks r0ck The Doom 3 theme by Tweaker is kewl too . Im sure Minotauro wanted Vengaboys as HL2 music! D:~~
2 of them are shemales..
Beyond good and evil.. monkey island 2...
quake 2
tetris
final fantasy games all have superb soundtracks
Final Fantasy 7 for me, followed by Gitaroo Man.
i think the timeless themes are AMAZING when we update them on real instruments.
mario, zelda, metroid... all awesome with orchestras.
on a selfish side note, the BiA music was recorded with a real orchestra in prague and is AMAZING.
why hasnt anyone mentioned TRANSPORT TYCOON?
Yeah wheres all the ppl saying Total annihilation

All of the above.
Well, maybe not FFX-2.
Nobuo and chums recently did a few Final Fantasy tracks with an orchestra, it sold out in the first nanosecond or something equally ridiculous.
I think a better topic would be the best USE of music. Sure, it's nice that games have totally happening soundtracks, but they've got to be put to good use. For instance Half-lifes soundtrack wasn't really that great, but rising to the surface on that lift with the music starting up really got you pumped to run around dodging random explosions and watch highly trained marines throw grenades vertically into the ground at their own feet.
And the Final Fantasy tracks for the end battles are obviously pre-planned affairs, the cool music kicking in during FFIX's final battle, for example, almost made up for the fact they pulled the entire final battle straight out of their asses. FF7's one winged angel track is probably the only video game track in history people know the name too. And FFX is hard to describe without giving anything away... but, wowz0r.
im playing ffx right now (going on 7 hours straight today)
very good musics i must say
the zelda theme played by an orchestra is amazing ..
i love the soundtrack for moh frontline (ps2) aswell
with FF ..well 7 was great 8 aswell .. 9 was kinda meh
10 didnt had the same feeling as 7 or 8 in game and song.. maybe it was a tad 2 colorful
