Game Music
It's amazing how back in the days, game music consists of only cuts and blips... and now they've become far better than movie soundtracks!
Share music you like that you came across in games here! Lets have some fun!

Radiant Silvergun - Evasion (Game Version) - Hitoshi Sakimoto
Radiant Silvergun - Evasion (Arranged Version) - Hitoshi Sakimoto
Street Fighter EX - Precious Heart - Takayuki Aihara

Re: Game Music
Silly sheep stage is hilarious.
When it comes to Tekken, I really like "Karma" from Tekken 6 and "Abyss of Time" from Tekken Tag 2. Akitaka Tohyama's Goa Trance-like style is quite catchy and it's the same for "BGM1" in Pac-Man DX CE which he also did.

Re: Game Music
Yeah Tecmo Koei's Musou series has great music and each series has a style that really seems to fit very well.
Dynasty Warriors = Rock music mixed with Chinese instruments. (The old theme/Lu Bu's is just too epic)
Samurai Warriors = Electronic/Techno with Japanese instruments.
Warriors Orochi = Tracks from both series plus it's own original stuff.
