Best Video Game Soundtrack

[Mellow Ezlo]

Title is pretty self explanatory I think. Which video game(s) have you played that have a soundtrack that stands out above all others, and what is it about it that you love?

I love the soundtrack to VVVVVV and its probably the one game soundtrack I listened to the most outside of the game.

Silent Hill 2

Banjo Kazooie was the first thing to pop in my head. I don't really even have a favorite song from it. Every level has music that fits well, and it is very cheerful overall.

Donkey Kong as a series
Zelda series
Mario Galaxy as a Game. Man I love that music. That's why it beats out Odyssey. Otherwise, they are equal
