Best soundtracks in a game

Oh and special mention goes to Flatout: UC for having This Is menace on the soundtrack. One of my favorite bands that no-one has ever heard of. Couldn't believe it when they came on!
 
I liked the Quake 2 instrumental rock songs. Not sure if NiN did them are not. Morrowind had a great soundtrack too which has been mentioned. Half Life 2 is really good, music suits the battle sequences nicely.

Not a PC game, but Xenon 2 on the Master System had Megablast by Bomb The Bass as the music. Great track :)

Yes!! Loved that song and that game. Had Xenon 2 on the Amiga. That fat alien you used to buy all your equipment off made me laugh :D

Frank Klepacki RA and RA2 music !

And due to over listening, I'm quite fond of all all age of empires soundtracks from Aoe1 to aoe2.
 
GTA has a pretty cool soundtrack - I've got the limited edition box set which comes with a seperate audio cd!

Call of Duty has a good orchestral score.

Deus Ex 2 has some good stuff going on - I'm one of the few that prefers the title music to the original game. The NG resonance thing works pretty well too.

I've also got a soft spot for Unreal, as it was the first FPS I can remember playing where the music tempo changed depending on the situation - i.e. you are exploring to some gentle tones, then a Skaarj jumps down from the rafters and you are suddenly hit with some some fast-paced fight music
 
I thought Bioshock was worth a mention here. I only played the demo but the score in the background was sounding quality. KOTOR would have to be there along with Homeworld - Cataclysm
 
Cant believe nobody has said:

Turrican 2 - Amiga (My fave)

Thunderforce 3 - Megadrive

Battle Squadron - Amiga
