It's gotta be Vice City or San Andreas IMO..
If we're talking original soundtracks:
Ocarina of Time

Ace Combat 4 soundtrack was the shit too. Every level had a top notch soundtrack.
My favorite though is this one.

You ever played Hawx 1&2? They're worth playing if you enjoyed Ace Combat or flight "sims"

I've never played a second of Final Fantasy nor have I been much of a gamer, but I'm starting to get into their soundtracks. I think they're the best I've heard so far.
I know I'm probably 20 years late but still...

Quake 1's by Reznor was good. I liked the music in Castlevania 2 as well.

The games were fun on its own, but Nobuo Uematsu's soundtracks easily took it to another level

Medal of Honor (PS1) gets my vote.

I like 12, 8, and 10 in that order
tbh 6 and 7 aren't that great to me even though they're the most popular. Maybe if I actually knew the story/played the games I'd feel differently

yep
that soundtrack all around was pretty good. one of those games where it's hard to even pick a favorite out of them all.

Mein neger solid picks :tu Reznor killed it. Like Mark Celibate said the Final Fantasy soundtracks are classic. Metroid for NES and Legend of Zelda series are on the same level.

You think so? Ironically, that's really the only video game series I got into when I was younger but the soundtrack was kind of forgetful compared to what I'm hearing in Final Fantasy. Some of those scores are over the top epic imo. I can't even remember any piece in LoZ that really stuck out.
On the flip side, Final Fantasy as a game always seemed dumb to me. The plots were always too complicated for a video game and seemed retarded anyway.

Depends on when you were born imo LoZ came out when I was about 6-7 years old. The soundtrack is hard wired into my brain. Zelda 2 and Link to the Past have quality soundtracks as well.
