and by in game, it can be the main menu or starting dealie as well. for me, it would have to be a tie between battlefeild 1942 and world in conflict. 1942 had that awsome song that just never got old, and wic had those great millitary march type songs, they always sounded great.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl for ambiance and atmosphere and Shadow of the Colossus for perfectly set score to action.

In no particular order,

-Far Cry main menu
-Doom 3 main menu
-Jazz Jackrabbit (all music, but especially the main menu)
-Tyrian 2000
-Xargon
-Major Stryker
-Cosmo's Cosmic Adventure
-Commander Keen IV-VI
-Myst IV Revelation main menu
-Duke Nukem II
-Blake Stone
-Oblivion
-Descent
-Descent 2
-Battlefield 2142
-Outlaws
-No One Lives Forever
-No One Lives Forever 2
-Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge
-Rollercoaster Tycoon merry-go-round music
-Dawn of War
-Warcraft 3
-Uru: Ages Beyond Myst (there's one VERY beautiful song in one area of the game)
-Mega Man X
-Dark Forces (it's just Star Wars music, but it sounds totally different and very catchy in old Sound Blaster :P)
-System Shock

I'd like to take this opportunity to link to this awesome remake of the old C&C song Act On Instinct (bit off-topic, but I figure some people might like it). I like the Command and Conquer music, but not enough to list any of it among my favorites. This remake, however, deserves some recognition.

No way guys... Zelda: OoT definitely beats all these. I mean, everyone still can hum the songs from OoT and they are great.

Most of the music from OoT is inspired from most of the tracks in A Link to the Past. I don't understand why OoT receives so much praise while A Link to the Past for the most part is completely ignored.

Homeworld 2's songs were amazing too, specially when the planet destructors warped in.

Main theme of Hitman.thusaha

that's "Ave Maria"

For me, the Hitman theme, Deus Ex, Half-Life 2, 1942, and Morrowind. I love them all!

I hate in-game music and usually turn it off right away. The only exceptions thus far have been Arcanum, Rome: Total War, and Victoria: an Empire Under the Sun.

The Half-Life soundtracks, the music is synchronized it the ambiance, like when that horde of antlions are attacking in hl2: ep2, vortal combat enhances the pure awesomeness that is fighting a bunch of antlions with the help of vortigaunts.

I love A Link to the Past as well...but I figured more people had played OoT so thats the one I named. and OoT has some others than just what Link to the Past has.

Homeworld's soundtrack is simply epic and amazing. Half-Life had some great music that would kick in just at the right time. Halo has some music that I like.
I also like the music that plays during Battlefield 1942's intro movie, and I think it playes on the main menu as well.

Bioshock - Added so much to the atmosphere when you came across a record player still spinning in some deserted room.

World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade - Best music ever in an MMO, still listen to the soundtrack occasionally.

Beyond Good And Evil - Very fun soundtrack with lots of epic pieces in the appropriate places.

World In Conflict - Great score that matched the gameplay very well.

Mass Effect - Kind of corny in places, but really matches the sci-fi theme.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - Subtle where it needed to be, but really ramped up for the fighting, used for great effect.

Pirates of the Burning Sea - Very fun swashbuckling music, although it could have used more.

Homeworld - Probably my favorite, tribal themes in a space epic was absolutely genious and worked perfectly.

There are probably a ton that I'm missing, but that about sums it up for now.

There's a lot of really good in game soundtracks. I loved the Guild Wars and Prey soundtracks. I'm also playing Rainbow Six Vegas 2 at the moment and the in game sountrack for it is pretty good.
