    Mafia II. Driving around the city in a 1950s Corvette (called a "Frigate" in the game) while listening to old rock & roll songs by Buddy Holly and Chuck Berry. Great slice of post-World War II American life.

    For me it would be Uncharted 1 & 2 and NFS Most Wanted.

    Deus Ex 1 wins by far, I love the music in it.
    At second place comes the music to Settlers II (Yea, released in 1996, I still play it sometimes in Dosbox)

    I also really like the music in World of Warcraft, I don't play it any longer but I do have the music on my playlist and it brings a smile to my face when I play it :)

    Tyrian 2000! Totally epic soundtrack for what it was.
    UT2K4 really makes it worth my time, just to play so I can enjoy the music.

    If it was opened to remixes, I'd have no real end for options. ^^

    Lets see; Dynasty Warriors(!), Black Mesa, Dawn of War, Half Life 2 and as much as Call of Duty annoys me - the zombie soundracks - One of the few women who's screams bring me pleasure ;).

    Dynasty Warriors is up there with the greats, a truely underrated game in both fun and music soundtrack, ranging from Chinese Oriental to Hard Rock >=D

    GTA Vice City! Had all the classic 80's songs from all genres and made it a great game just driving around.

    Been mentioned already, all the Deus Ex games, GTA: Vice City, some of the Unreal Tournament tracks plus I will always have a soft spot for the Tomb Raider theme (in all its incarnations) and TR:2 had a decent amount of cool ambient tracks. Oh yeah, I have a tonne of Tetris remixes as well :)

    Black Mesa FTW! Joel Nielsen has done a very good job! Yeah, but like Kotaku said, it is unnecessary in some places, plus in my opinion it is a little bit too short. Anyways, it is awesome, I have never heard such a good OST in games, although Indigo Prophecy had an awesome soundtrack too.

    One of the most memorable game soundtracks I've ever heard was Two Worlds. The game wasn't super but I could listen to that soundtrack for hours.

    Wow, I can't believe someone actually said Ragnarok Online. One of my favorite games of all time. Dedicated thousandddds of hours to it. Was the music all that GREAT? Kinda sorta. It was very varied and it definitely brings back memories when I hear it.

    /sob I wish I still played RO
