I've heard Les Claypool has done some, but don't have any of the games.

Sega Rally 1 soundtrack, some great guitar playing in that, Conditioned Reflex has a good riff
NIN soundtrack for Quake, incredibly evocative/nightmarish, the title track is cool
Virtua Cop soundtrack, sounds quite influenced by Pink Floyd in terms of the chord changes
Morrowind soundtrack

Every time I think about some of the music on those MS-DOS games, it just really makes me perplexed about the fate of prog. A lot of sissy prog-like music went to be used as soundtracks for those games. The soundtrack for Doom makes me think about Soft Machine's "Facelift", the bit from Spaced where the cymbal part intertwines with the electric piano part.

The original Deus Ex main theme/UNATCO themes are pretty untouchable.

Fable had an awesome soundtrack too.


Metal Gear Solid as a series has some killer stuff too. My favourites:

The Playstation Spyro titles also had some amazing stuff which is always good for a nostalgia blast.

Not many video game music can stand against Diablo 2 (and LOD of course) music. Terrific dark guitar work of Tristram, deep tribal ambient of Jungle theme, classical type Act V town music, even there are some fillers, like music in hell.
There's a point where "avant-garde" and "experimental" becomes "terrible" and "pointless,"

Have you guys heard of Armcannon? They should be on this site to be honest... awesome covers of retro songs (a couple of t.v ones as well).
