Two games that really stick out for me are Super Mario Galaxy (1 and 2, hard to choose between the two), and The Wonderful 101. Oh man, The Wonderful 101.

What a great soundtrack.

DMC3 Battle Music 1 (This is the epic boss battle music)

My other favorite is the one where Dante almost dies, but toughens up after the battle against Dante, he goes down an evolved teng ne gru and gets eaten by a flying dragon of sorts.

Turok 64 "The Ancient City" Theme

Turok 64 Creepy "Catacombs" Theme

Xenogears' "Bonds of Sea and fire" (I think this is the main theme of the game)

I'm trying to find ID's music, where he interrupts and reveals himself for the first time. God, that was an awesome introduction to a boss, complete with an awesome OST.

Castlevania: Symphony of the Night's "Prayer" Theme (menu music)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USLujXtbsmQ
And just about anything after this. Aria of Sorrow offers up some AMAZING tracks. From start to finish, excellent OST's.

Megaman 3 - easily my favorite NES game OST of all time. That Snakeman and Shadowman beat is just too sick not to get down to.

My favorites: Gemini Man, and Snake Man. Epic.

Mega Man 4 has some too, like the opening cinematics, the main select screen, and Wily's Stage 2 (Those green sewers/bathroom-looking BG's)

Here's Wily's Stage 2 in MM4...

I dunno if the quality's good, but you get my drift, tho.

Batman - Stage 1

Stage 3 - Conduit is my #1 in that game. Once you get in there, you get the sense that something big is about to go down. And it did, several tanks await you in that stage. Once you get past that, oh man... such an accomplishment.

Chrono Trigger's Peaceful Days is soothing and nostalgic.

Kingdom Hearts and Undertale; 10/10
Tales of the Abyss has some fantastic final boss music and The Meaning of Life is super emotional

Paper Lion

Persona 3, Persona 4, Final Fantasy IX

Youtube Video

Persona is so effortlessly cool, man... It's not even funny.

ScottVan96

Probably the entire Wind Waker soundtrack. Just listening to the music alone takes you to those moments in the game and you feel the emotion and just how incredible of a journey your accomplishing. 10/10, Masterpiece.

waleed

the entire Persona franchise soundtrack

Krauser

@BatViking

Can't forget this gem. Tears me up.

When my grandmother became terminally ill, we started preparing the funeral proceedings together. She wanted me to pick the music for the ceremony, this was one of the tracks I proposed to her. She agreed, and we did.

Probably the most emotional song I know in video game music history.

Pat

@Krauser Beautiful man, L&R

I know we all can see that Okami looks beautiful (and plays beautifully), but It's soundtrack is equally gorgeous.
Rising Sun

Light

@michemagius I knew I was forgetting something!

Okami is incredible. Also... this and this.

vanti

Streets of Rage II (SEGA Genesis)- Full OST playlist It's just the best. Deal with it! 8)
Deus Ex (PC) - Full OST playlist Awesome moody music.
Super Hexagon - Courtesy, Otis, Focus (Live at BitSummit) Chipzel is definitely one of the best chiptune artists around at the moment. It's pure unadultured GameBoy sound btw.
Comic Bakery (C64) - Theme "Galway is God" as they say Friends of Bos vs Woz should recognize this one! =)

Lexad

Kingdom Hearts in the only series where I just randomly hum the music to

Dearly Beloved

Simple and Clean

Sanctuary

I was watching the Game Grumps playthrough of Katamari Forever, and it reminded me of how much I really enjoyed that game's soundtrack. So I decided to give a nod to two games with amazing remix soundtracks, Persona 4: Dancing all Night and Katamari Forever/Tribute.

Katamari Forever:
Sayonara Rolling Star - Yuri's Mixx
The Moon and the Prince - Leopoldan Mix
Gin, Tonic & Red Roses - YMCK 8bit Mix

P4Dan:
Dance!
Heaven - Norhiko Hibino Remix
Pursuing My True Self - Shinichi Osawa Remix
