On the front page, he displays a slightly-remade version of Wing Commander... some of the best game music ever made!
hmm... his site seems down...

Final Fantasy 11. Pretty much all music in the game is awesome.

I really like C64 music.

Ahh, the nostalgia. Anything from Capcom or Tecmo NES games is usually amazingly good. Konami and Technos(river city ransom, double dragon) did some damn good NES music too. Here you will find the complete soundtracks for Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2.

When I was a kid, I used to take an oldass tape recorder(one that's like the size of a book) and put it next to the TV speakers to record music from my videogames so I could listen to it later... My brothers thought this was extremely weird and hilarious, and they took pleasure in making as much noise as possible to ruin my recordings.

So there is far too much amazing videogame music to post it all here, but for anyone who's interested, check out...

Anything from the entire Megaman series is pretty much guaranteed awesome music
Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Brave Fencer Musashi
TimeSplitters(the entire series)
Double Dragon 1-3
Little Nemo in Dream Land

Man, I could sit and listen to this stuff all friggin' day. It's amazing what they could do with a simple 8 bit sound chip.

Also, if anyone's interested, there's a site called Zophar's Domain that has all kinds of tools and whatnot for videogames. Like, you can find tons of emulators there and possibly programs used for hacking game ROMs. I'm not totally sure, as I've mostly only ever used it for emulators... They have videogame soundtracks there, in really small files, like, they're the original sound files ripped directly from the cartridge. You can also find plugins for media players to allow you to play those files, or you can download a player meant for those types of files.The player I use is called Meridian Advance. And here's the site: www.zophar.net

This may take a while, but at least I'll have a few hours spent listening to good music.

First there are pretty much entire soundtracks that I like(at least 75% of their soundtracks):

Full Final Fantasy 6 OST
Full Chrono Trigger OST
Music of video games - Kirby's Adventure
Zelda 2: Adventure of Link OST
Full Super Mario Galaxy OST (2 is in there, as well, but haven't listened to it much)
Full Shadow of the Colossus OST
Full NieR OST

As for other individual songs, this may take quite a while...

Classic. So awesome.

Another classic, even with the limited musical options of the Gameboy and NES, they made something memorable for Tetris.

And now for something more modern.

* I still have this game by the way *

I love visting the hub world of Shamar in Sonic Unleashed, just so I could sit there while listening to this song.
