ive never really payed all that attention to the music in video games i play (at least the portable ones, mainly because the music is usually off.) but any song from the first 4 sonic games (although mostly that michael jackson stuff in sonic 3, and marble zone) and that tune from super mario bros. plus, some of the tunes in NiGHTS into dreams are pretty catchy.

and "keep your head up" from umjammer lammy. (never played the game, but if that song isnt addicting i dont know what is.)

do songs in guitar hero count? i dont think they do, but if they do then alot of the songs in them too.

plus alot more that i cant remember right now.

The World Ends With You has an AMAZING soundtrack. Definetely one of my favs!

I agree with that statement. Even if some of the lyrics, of some of the songs in the game make little or no sense...

Observe:

"Crystals, blisters"
It’s all over now
Psycho cane
You’re so keen
I need more candy canes

"Infinity, Dignity"
Fall into the trap on the track with a bang, trip
"Same old face, say bye to old phase"
Put your hands up and do the PEACE

Concrete, cornering, freestyle, my lungs get squeezed
Mr. Twister, a monster that aches "more"
It’s wonderful
No enemies
Using anything I can get my hands on
Remarkable? Or? Tough?
Does that mean it’s (already) a mundane people thing?

Final fantasy X has good music, especially "Besaid".

All the GTAs also have good songs since they have real music on radio stations

BUMP!

I've got a couple to reccomed:

-Tekken 2 (the themes of Paul, Nina, Lei, Alex, Character select)
-Mario Paint (so weird and almost psychedelic, but delightful and catchy- I've only played it when I was 7, yet some of the tunes have stayed with me ever since!)
- Pro Evoution Soccer

Since this thread as been brought back, I might as well include one of my favourite pieces of video game music:

Fable Theme by Danny FREAKING Elfman

Ooh, a BIG one I forgot-

Game:Streets of Rage 2
Tune: Go Straight

type it into Youtube now. It is EPIC

Here are some great tracks from some games you may or may not know...

Game: God Hand

Track: The Gang of Venice

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTEMXNxeZAQ

A great track from Capcom's severely underrated PS 2 beat em up. It's a nice up tempo guitar/accordion number that is surprisingly fun to bust heads to.

Game: Wild Arms

Track: Into the Wilderness

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRV_A5ZDXyo

The opening track to the first game in the long series of Old west inspired RPG's, stands the test of time as of one the most memorable and moving tracks in game history. It's the kind of theme that just makes to want to don a cowboy and ride off into the sunset.

Game: Uncharted Waters: New Horizons

Track: Caprice for Lute

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZfyX...eature=related

Ahhh, nothing captures the feeling of slowly drifting away to new lands like this Yoko Kanno created track from the criminally underrated 16'th century sailing and exploration sim series "Uncharted Waters".

Game: Ace Combat 4

Track: Megalith - Agnus Dei

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ6ABV_Q9qU

An epic theme that serves as theme for the game's final level, a pure epic masterpiece in every way shape and form.

Game: The Neverhood.

Track: Klayman's Theme

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppkBUXKjLw0

A fun little dixieland inspired number that serves as the main theme for this awesome claymation based graphic adventure. (Whose main character is now serving as my avatar pic, because I can't seem to get this game out of my mind despite not having played in years.)

Halo
Modern Warfare 2
Left 4 Dead 1 & 2
Super Smash Bros Brawl
Super Mario Bros
Sonic the Hedgehog
