I love Halo's music. Marty does an amazing job.

But if its licensed music, then I have to say Vice City.

Bioshock had some pretty good music really sets up the tone especially the suspensful and horror sequences. I also like the music in Valve games like Hale Life and Team Fortress 2 for what little there is of that.

I'd agree with the Halo Series, but one of my favorite all time is Ocarina of Time. Oblivion is pretty good too.

GTA games have licensed soundtracks. The songs weren't made for the game.

That said, Oblivion had a nice original score. My favorite, however, has to be Ocarina of Time.

I cant believe this wasn't the first post, but here it is BIOSHOCK! Bioshock has the best soundtrack I've heard in at leats 6 or 7 years.

Whew, this is a tough one. It depends on what area of music a score is shooting for. You know, I'd say that videogame music was far more inventive and interesting back when midi was prevelant. Descent had really cool music.

Deus Ex probably takes the cake for electronica. Myst III: Exile has an incredible main title, as does Halo, and Morrowind and Oblivion both have sweeping themes.

The Command & Conquer: Red Alert series

Halo (all of them... I liked the way they evolved from CE to Halo 2 to Halo 3)

Bioshock

I agree - Mass Effect by far for me. The Faunts song during the ending credits is just AMAZING!!!

I can't decide if I like Mass Effect or Halo better because both of those soundtracks are superbly done. Coming in a close second is the Lost Odyssey soundtrack.
