Exactly a year ago I asked this same question and discovered and listened to a lot of people's picks and really enjoyed it.
Now I want to ask the same question again, for the people that have joined SG this last year, or just for anyone who discovered a new game soundtrack that they really enjoyed.
And even if you have answered a year ago, and you don't have a new favorite, you are welcome to put the same song again, consistency is great :D
If you can't pick just one, feel free to pick more!

Last time my picks were Hydrogen from Hotline Miami and I Shall Rise from Rise of the Tomb Raider. And while these two are still my favorite, this year I played the remake of the first Mafia, and absolutely fell in love with the 1920s-1940s Jazz music from the in-game radio. I've been using them to go to sleep, or just to chill a lot these past few months. Lost Heaven Radio and WBDS Radio.
And once again, bonus points if it's an original score!

Very anime outro-like song, seems like something very enjoyable if you like anime music.

I'm a fan of this sort of songs, but they get tiresome if I listen to them for long periods of time.

Nice picks, Baba Yetu is such a classic, and Mass Effect is a masterpiece from top to bottom imo.

I've recently played Infinite for the first time, and really enjoyed the music from it. I loved all the old-school jazz. I was not a fan of the ending either. The saving system was alright imo, after the god-awful experience with Bioshock 2 Remaster crashing all the time due to incompetent and careless devs I feared that the lack of manual and quick saves will be a problem. But thankfully it wasn't a problem.

I want to play it again at some point as well, especially with the remastered version. It has some of the best storytelling in videogames and it deserves to be replayed.

I am not sure about the originality of the songs from NFS Carbon and the two Undergrounds, but for me, the music in them was excellent.
These are probably my favorites from them: Tuner Theme , Hard EBM , Get Low , Riders On The Storm

I kinda lost my interest after Carbon and know very little of the games released after it. But the ones I played up to and including Carbon were really memorable for me.

Had to go back and watch the Reapers' invasion from Mass Effect again after that song.
While I'm not the biggest Assassin's Creed fan, I have to admit that they had some great music choices for most of their games.
