Surely the soundtrack from Total Annihilation has to go in here. It was epic.

God of War have some cool bands on it's soundtrack (included Dream Theater). But I think that the best score I ever listened on a game was the music in Final Fantasy 8. It's just perfect

There are so many great video game scores, I'm a big fan of the genre. Themes from old school games are the best!
Here are some Castlevania themes: For details, composers etc.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_in_the_Castlevania_series And some more old friends: Also check out this danish band (Press Play on Tape) playing covers of VG themes: They're really good. The coolest stuff they do is playing music on old game controllers (skip to around 3 mins for the song):

Now, I remember a Sega Genesis game called "Rock 'n Roll Racing" that had Sabbath, Purple and more classic rock bands in the music of the game, played in Midi. That was hilarious!!

One of the best soundtracks I've heard is from Donkey Kong Country (all 3 first parts) on Super Nintendo, check out this theme
On top of it all, developers had 8-bit chip, 16-bit DSP, and 64 kB of SRAM for making it work! This post has been edited by Ivan Milenkovic: Apr 19 2010, 12:39 PM -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

I remember rock n roll racing on the megadrive, was an isometric racing game IIRC? The music was done so bad that it wrapped around to being good
