No particular order. In the interest of saving space on your screens I've shied away from linking all of these Youtube videos directly.

Edit - Dropping Risk of Rain up here at the top. Phenomenal soundtrack. Every track is extremely well done and it's one of the few albums where I never skip a song. Toss up between Monsoon and Precipitation for my personal favorite songs.

FTL (PC) and the expansion. Both links are to the musician's website where you can play them by track. Titles marked (explore) are slower, while (battle) are faster/more energetic.

StarCraft/Brood War - Opening Theme (PC) and Terran One even though the Terran are dirty scrubs.

Metroid Prime (GC) Shoutout to Phendrana Drifts

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (GC) Playlist, unfortunately. Main Theme, Torvus Bog, and Chykka Larva are all solid picks.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)

Earthbound (SNES) The first game I remember getting angry at. That bitch killed my bee friend. One of the best and most trippy RPGs of all time.

Chrono Trigger (SNES)

Mega Man X (SNES)

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (SNES)

Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)

Europa Universalis 4 - Eire (PC)

Goldeneye 007 - Facility (N64)

Battletanx - Main Theme (N64)

Bomberman (N64)

Ragnarok Online (PC)

Jurassic Park (SNES) For some reason this game was really overlooked. Pretty much every track is awesome.

Sins of a Solar Empire - Opening Theme (PC)

Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion - Opening Theme (PC)

Civilization IV - Baba Yetu (PC)

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. May end up with a few more later.
