Morrowind's quiet tracks are damn good.

Also, Deus Ex had a very unique soundtrack that fit perfectly.

Some of your design ideas might be a bit crusty at times, but your taste in game music is right up there

Ultima 8, Ravenloft my top 2, all others too difficult to rank


I also find strategy type games tend to have the best soundtracks.

 

[Jaesun]

Ultima VIII's soundtrack will still remain one of the fucking best. Especially when played through a Roland JV1080.

Civ 3

 

[Unkillable Cat]

Ultima 9 (No, not a typo)
Chrono Trigger
Quest For Glory

 

[Ruprekt]

Too hard to choose among older/classic RPGs.

But from the current 'gen' my fave soundtrack is Risen's (with a shout out to Divinity 2's).


- the most memorable individual song would have to be 'that one' from the first ravenloft: you all know which I mean.

 

[Obsidian Squid]

Just off the top of my head

Fallout had a spectacular soundtrack.
Planescape (similar to FO)
Mass Effect 1 (ME2 was disappointing because the music wasn't as great)
VTMB
mmorpg LOTRO, as well

Deus Ex:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqTKqHYn ... re=related (this track resonates more with me than does the title theme, and when I think of Deus Ex I think of this, more than the main music, probably because you hear it so many times throughout the game)

And I can't find it but there's an amazing track that plays when you discover the ruins in the Northeast for the first time in NOTR. Really incredible memories associated with that one.

Arcanum. I've always been in to the somber violin stuff and all that. Also, haven't really played a lot of games with that kind of soundtrack, which makes it unique (though that might just be because of my ignorance).
