The best soundtracks in Videogames
Hey guys 
I am currently working at a news bureau in Denmark, where we in two weeks are putting focus on gaming music.
I am working on an article about the best soundtracks in videogames and I would love to hear which soundtracks that have impressed you.
Which video games do you have to play because of the soundtrack?
Which soundtracks blew you away?
Any soundtracks that are timeless?
Just hit me with all you got. I really want to know.

pretty much anything with a symphonic orchestra in it.
and while not exactly a piece of soundtrack per se, but Borderlands the Pre-Sequel has one amazing piece of music.

I never began a video game because of the soundtrack, but some video games I returned to because I remembered the soundtrack more than the actual game play. Therefore these are all games I eventually played because of the soundtrack, a soundtrack that "blew" me away and a timeless soundtrack...
Here are a couple:
Major Stryker
Lotus III (Best I could find on a short notice)
One Must Fall 2097
Donkey Kong Country 2
I also really liked some of the Lemmings & HoMM 2 soundtracks, but since HoMM 2 have already been mentioned and I couldn't find any Lemmings soundtrack I remembered, I didn't add those.

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Absolutely amazing, well composed, produced, mixed and very fitting to the game overall. For me, this is one of the top soundtracks out there.

The best game soundtracks (GOSTs) I remember right now:
Warcraft 2
Heroes 2
Heroes 3
Warhammer - Shadow Of The Horned Rat
Warhammer - Final Liberation
Descent 2
Diablo 1
Maybe from new games Tyranny GOST too, it's symphonic music, but it's rather memorable.
