GW2 has several great tracks, though sadly the hit rate across the whole OST is low.
Chilling in the central city of Lion's Arch:
When tragicizing like Tarzan through a huge fantasy rainforest so deep you can't even look up and see the treetops above, looking for the city of gold:
Infiltrating Joko's army and then using a scepter to control scarabs and wreck havoc. Pursuing Balthazar's mech as he breaks through Vabbi:
Entering Charr lands:
During the climatic meta event/big battle of the final zone of the saga:
Dumbed down in every way, streamlined (in the worst sense of the word) and monetarized.
But let's not drag this here. Tag me in the appropriate thread or pm me if you're interested in an honest discussion.
Basically the whole Prophecies soundtrack, but especially:
And **** anet and GW2.
This was one of my first major MMO's. I love pre-searing and would hang out there 'charr hunting' with people and selling Black Dyes haha. I played a Monk healer and had a second spec for a "Five-Five monk" you should know what that is, that I used to farm the troll caves with for cash lol. Also played a 'Barrage' Ranger and a Mes/Nec Hexer for PvP. I still have that account accessible and still have some of those Dragonswords people would farm and sell because they looked cool lol.
Man, I forgot so much about my thousands of hours in this game, yet I remember almost as much (kinda like RL, innit?). I could spend several days at a bar talking about my experiences in this game, like I could at a meeting with close family about my childhood. Guild Wars was the best 'MMO' I ever played, and I often asked myself: 'Is it just nostalgia?'
No, it isn't. It's one of the best games of all time. Wonderful world, superb systems and mechanics, great community (back then, no idea what it's like now).
Absolute magic. Sad and at the same time wonderful stuff. Don't regret a minute, wish I had 'wasted' more time on it.

Yeah man. I met a friend on there from the states who played a MM Necro ( minion Master ) and we played every day man up until a few weeks after the expansion dropped and Ninjas were everywhere. He had a webcam and him and his girl played and they would maybe once or twice a week fire up the webcam on MSN Messenger lol and talk about the game and talk about the countries/where we lived. He told me about Hollywood Undead ( never heard of them ) and we'd run 'Underworld' and farm for "ecto's" to sell all the time lol, you DEF know that one. Fuckin loved every logon man, was such a good experience, even more so than WoW. We started a guild and played for a good year or so before they split and I lost contact with him. I think we did everything we could that was available and had a blast. First real online buddy I ever met.
Tombs, Level 3 I remember the most, all the walkways with the yellow lines/decoration.

[Quoted from a forum post by Mason Fisher, composer of the game's music]
The vocalists name is Toni Burdey. She is a wonderful talent! When I worked with her to add the lyrics to the melodies I composed for the intro movie, it was more important that the lyrics matched the existing melodies and were "singable." We took MANY liberties with the phrases to make them work musically. So, the lyrics are short Latin phrases that are somewhat organized as far as meaning and content.
The language is Latin. Here is a VERY rough translation for the intro movie. Again, many liberties with the language are taken here.

A hunger that leads to crime and war...forever.
From effect to cause...woe to the vanquished by force of arms.

SiN's soundtrack is underrated, original game is from '98 I'm still stumped about the tracks we never got to hear from the attempted sequel SiN:Episodes(2006). Zak Belica told Ross Scott(Accursed Farms) via email that he had planned to flesh out the sequel with far more than what we got.
The Mumbojumbo buyout of Ritual Entertainment in 2006 is an absolute...

The last WoW expansion:
Kushala Daora theme in most titles:
Despite having weirdo jap stuff in the game, the theme slaps:
Live free in the NC:
Good ol' PSP days:
MGS3 was very solid:
Good ol' M&B:
FFXIV while did go down into the gutter, it had some bangers and very... unusual music styles:

Gauntlet IV on the Sega Genesis has a surprisingly good soundtrack. It might be one of the few games on the Sega Genesis to make full use of the Yamaha sound chip's capabilities. There's quite a bit of variety too.
These tracks are particularly adventurous sounding.
And then there's this which has a creepy atmosphere to it. Breezing-like sounds with the synth and such.
I'm not particularly knowledgeable so please take my posts with a grain of salt.

Remind me of these:
I'm sure I've posted these before, but they're really **** good and trapped on an obscure system.

Might get some dual Spriest in with little bro before this long weekend kicks off and we're away for a few days. Track of choice.
