I'm not much of a music fanatic. I don't have any favorite bands, no lists of songs, nothin. But games are packed full of music. And I'd be lying if I said I didn't have any favorites.
I can't pick out which ones are my favorite from any games mind you, but Ive been quite the fan of VALVe's music. I dunno why, the music they make for their games are awesome. "Route to City 17" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2nLPDAntRU&) and "Triage at Dawn" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy61r3Qkm6o) are both good from the Half Life sound tracks both of which I think are composed by Viktor Antonov.
When it comes to a "game character's theme" or just their theme song, I think I like Godot's from the Phoenix Wright series, "The Fragrance of Dark Coffee" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGcyKEZtWuE) (doubt that's the real name, but screw it. It's in the video title.) and that's saying something in my opinion since the game is on the DS.
As said before, I'm not much of a music fanatic, so I may just have bad taste in music n' such. If you guys have any favorites from VIDEO GAMES ONLY, post em here.

I'm a tremendous fan of the MGS soundtracks. Whoever Hideo hired on to do the music has my applause (EDIT: It's Harry Gregson-Williams, bravo man!)
Metal Gear Solid 1 Main Theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqyFacQooPw)
Metal Gear Solid 2 Main Theme (Intro to game) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHYh02uCCJo)
Metal Gear Solid 3 Main Theme (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNVCD1dsnJI)
Metal Gear Solid 4 "theme" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVfBJG5_7DY)
The Saga's theme song got better and better with every game. It started out as some typical computerized audio song back on the original playstation for the first, and transformed into one of the most beautiful songs by the forth. Love it!
Shadow of the Colossus Soundtrack though Im also a fan of MGS4 Soundtrack, Crying Wolf is brilliant.
The Diablo 2 soundtrack is extremely nostalgic for me. Now that I've started playing Torchlight I realize how much that style says "Diablo 2" to me. They have the same composer who did Diablo 2 for Torchlight, and the music is the same style. I feel like I'm playing an updated version of Diablo 2.
Oh yea also Timesplitters 2 and 3!
Final Fantasy V
- Prelude
Digimon World 3
- Last boss theme
Brave Fencer Musashi
- Musashi's theme

Its basically a shorter version of its main theme song. The loading screen is good but not as good as its main song. expleasly the end.

<3 FTW.
Chrono Trigger definitely had a really nice sountrack as far as video game music goes.
Lot of the music composed for the game Frontlines: Fuel of War is really neat. I think I'll ask them to let me use some of it in one of my games ^_^
