Homeworld's music is perfect. Sombre, restrained, evocative. Really captures the vastness of space, the epicness of the journey. Nothing can be added or taken away from it...

The Mass Effect trilogy - the music for all three was similar, yet different. They each managed to capture how different the games were in gameplay and theme yet keep a unifying theme.

Myst and Riven, in fact all the sounds and music contributed greatly to the atmosphere.

Bastion and Beyond Good & Evil both have fantastic music that fits the gameplay perfectly.

I change my answer.

aihre is right on this one.

Even the YES song during the closing credits is perfect.

Farcry menu loop, it kicks so much ass. It's exactly like Rambo or somethin.

Final Fantasy 8 - Don't Be Afraid is probably my favorite battle tune.

I particularly like the Battlefield 1942 intro theme. Pew! Pew! Pew! Omg, launch torpedoes!

Bloodbowl menu - Kill, kill, kill.

Hotline Miami last level - Turf. This is some psychedelic shit.

Medieval 2 Total War - We Are All One. Total yes.

This question again? That's fine, because I like game music and like to discuss about it too, and get new ideas. I've certainly listed these before, many times.

Baldur's Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal theme: I pee in my pants every time the choir goes to the highest crescendo in that song.

Far Cry theme: I recall when I started playing the game for the first time, I almost forgot to start playing because I just stopped to listen for this menu music.

Crysis 2 theme

Hitman 3: Contracts main theme

Unreal Tournament 2003: Main Theme

Unreal Tournament 2003: DeathMatch 1

Unreal Tournament 2003: From Below V2

FX Fighter (PC) - Ashraf Theme

Descent 2 Track 06

Descent 2 Track 11

For even older classics:

Sanxion has the best Amiga game music I know and care. Too bad the game was never released for Amiga.

Some Roland MT-32 game music.
