Some of my favorite video game soundtracks...

One of my favorite things about gaming is the music component. A game with a great soundtrack makes it so much more enjoyable, and makes the game a much more powerful experience for the gamer as well. A perfect example of this would be Jeremy Soule's scores in Skyrim. Kinda seems like a cliche answer, but really, the music makes the game that much better.

That being said, there are so many great soundtracks out there. Ocarina of Time is amazing, because the music actually has the power to bring me back to my childhood. I feel like a kid again every time I hear one of the songs from the game.  

Another game with a great soundtrack, although not being noted as a "classic" is Baiten Kaitos for Gamecube. I absolutely love this game and am obsessed with the soundtrack. There's such a great mix of different stuff, and all of the music fits perfectly with the gameplay. Man, if you haven't played this game I highly recommend it. 

Halo soundtracks are always amazing as well :) I should actually go download some songs....
