Games with the best soundtracks/music

[JaffleMan]

There have been some many great games, as well as many not so great, that have had some excellent soundtracks to them. So I'm just wondering what games others love for the musical side of things....

Here are a few of my favorites.....


Rescue: The embassy mission
Battletoads -Back in the day Rare produced plenty of games with good music, this'd probably be one of their better examples
Maniac Mansion -The intro to this and some of the in game music is incredible on the NES version
Command and Conquer Red Alert 1&2 -to me the hells march theme is incredible!! "Die waffen legt an!!"
Super Mario bros. -I actually hated the music to most of this game but loved the music of the tunnel levels so much I thought it deserved a mention
Fifa 2005 -this opened my eyes to at least 3 different artists, great stuff all round

I always liked the music in Sega Genesis's Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

Good thing this thread was created before the release of Brawl.

Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. David Wise is the 'effing man. Never to this day have I found a VG soundtrack I loved more, but Brawl is poised to be the one that kills it.

NES Rygar- Loved the music to this back in the old days. Needs to come out on the VC.

Super Mario Galaxy- Awesome new music plus great remixes of old favorites

Never played DKC2, need to check it out

Final Fantasy VI has a pretty buck nasty soundtrack.

There are many games that have soundtracks that I like, but if I had to narrow it down to a few series, I'd say the Pop'n Music series, the Sonic series (the first four on the Genesis), and Ristar.
