Even though it didn't really have my favorite soundtrack in the series, Final Fantasy X definitely had the best battle theme of any FF game IMO.

Had this been a normal song it would have been my favorite power metal song probably. I even enjoy listening to the midi version.

Cellador's newer stuff has this same vibe to it. Also check out powerglove if you like this.

Somehow I wonder if the people in Dream Theater play a lot of Squaresoft games. I was listening to Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence this morning, and I noticed a lot of its more symphonic/proggy bits sound like they came out of Final Fantasy Tactics. While some parts of Octavarium sound like they came out of Chrono Cross.

The Donkey Kong Country songs always seemed good to me; I base a lot of my keyboard playing on that (indirectly I suppose) because I grew up with it. Gangplank Galleon is pure metal.

Though has anyone heard of Captain Claw (Monolith)? I thought that music had very good orchestration (even for MIDI).

Almost forgot about Jun Senoue... music for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (Ice Cap, Lava Reef, the boss battles... all great, at least to me). Though the Genesis sounds are kind of annoying.

I also like Gruntilda's Lair theme of Banjo-Kazooie. Very classical feel there. BTW I'm pretty sure Burzum uses some chord progression that the final battle of that game uses haha

Heck almost all video game music is awesome

EDIT: Warcraft 2 orc music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9uDM8GJa53c

The SIlent Hill games have awesome soundtracks.

Also, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles is a really dumb game, but has an amazing soundtrack. Lots of cool percussion and stuff.

All I can think of that hasn't been said is Super Mario Galaxy. Not everything was great, but it certainly had some epic tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsAFpdAgh6A

I was listening to some of the temple music from OoT the other day and I realized just how wierd some of it really is. I've never heard anything like the Forest Temple's music before.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=322V5rD6ko4

And the Fire Temple's original music was amazing, before Nintendo removed the chanting becuase of the complaints.

God Hand is the greatest game in all things, including music.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOfIl23Areo

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UYhuzV1j9E This one gets stuck in my head and doesn't leave for a few days every time I play the game.

And, the greatest song of them all...

Hell yeah. I guess temples are just Koji Kondo's opportunity to just write some weird shit.

i love Saria's Song/Lost Woods theme!

Zelda (Wind Waker) - Molgera battle (that flying sandworm thing):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBxSG_0o-WY
F-Zero 64 had some cool heavy metal ish songs, sadly it's mostly electronic on GX. Billy (the monkey who drives the Mad Wolf) had a cool song, though... vocals sound a bit like Cynic lol:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XloizoXroBI
Quake2:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFT_AeXVIh8
Metal Gear Solid - the song when you're caught:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXXIZqa9v_M
Metal Gear Acid - la clown:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n22uNK5kank

my overall favourite soundtrack has to be Soul Calibur 2, though. excellent.
