Hey, lately I got into listening to some videogame/movie sountracks to pass the time, I would like to hear your favourites, maybe I can find some hidden gems that way.

For example, I have been listening to some Skyward Sword OST, and Kirby Super Star (I love Nintendo music).

Looking forward to your suggestions. :)

Ok, here goes... Some are just covers.

Prince of Persia Movie - Destiny
Morrowind Theme Song
Final Fantasy VI - Boss Theme(Metal Cover)
Final Fantasy VII - Let The Battle Begin (Metal Cover)
Skyrim - The Dragonborn Comes (Malukah)
Street Fighter - Ken's Theme (Metal Cover)
Dragon's Dogma - Coils Of Light
Megaman X - Boomer (Metal Cover)

Will likely update list as more comes to mind, however I don't typically listen to OST's, just like certain songs from games, and sometimes find metal covers that make me fall in love.

That's pretty good, thanks. And here, maybe this link will work for the megaman. I prefer to post official links for the band, but hey, if no other choice then...

Undertale has a pretty great soundtrack. I've seen a lot of people who disliked the game but loved the soundtrack (the soundtrack is pretty big so I'll just give you some recommendations: Megalovania, Spider Dance, Ghost Fight, Hopes and Dreams).

Also, FTL. I love the theme.

Alan Wake's soundtrack comes primarily from the band, Poets Of The Fall. It's super catchy and goes great which the action scenes.

Bethesda put it up on YouTube (in addition to selling it through major online music stores):
DOOM OST

Mick Gordon also has some tracks from it under his account, as well as tracks from Killer Instinct, The Partisan from Wolfenstein: the Old Blood, and few other miscellaneous videos.

You ow it to yourself to play it, and unlike the vast majority of rpgs, this one can be completed in 20 hours for the first play through.
So its not a huge time investment.

Hmm, let's see... in no particular order (with playlists where I think they have too many good ones for me to list them all :P ):
Some from Castle Crashers.
Before The Echo (previously called "Sequence" before they changed the name), being a sort-of-rhythm game, has a nice soundtrack.
Hotline Miami (the second one is actually kinda weird in that it was technically made for the game but isn't actually part of it's soundtrack).
Serious Sam 3.
The entire (!) soundtrack of Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams (seriously- every single... part? Song? Whatever, it's all nice to listen to).
Pretty much every Combat or Boss theme is Borderlands 2 (and I guess some ambient themes might be nice too).
All of Painkiller's Fight themes.
The majority of Devil May Cry 4 and Devil May Cry 3 fight themes and boss themes (and some other ones).
Half-Life 2's more action-oriented themes (if you can dig them out of all the ambient ones :P ).
This Intrusion 2 theme. (It's a rather small game.)
A bunch of Bullet Hell Game themes that probably automatically mark me as a massive weirdo for even considering to mention them here.
Quite a few themes from Hyperdimension Neptunia now that I think about it...
Almost definitely not what you're looking for- but I think most of Darkest Dungeon's themes sound super awesome.

And now for something gasp not from a video game!
RWBY's soundtrack is pretty awesome (though I'll refrain from posting the entire soundtrack since the guy who makes these videos likes to put in them screenshots from the episode during which the songs in question plays and I wanna avoid spoilers and stuff).

Castle Crashers, I approve.
Yeah I liked Sequence, good music and pretty funny characters :P
Hotline Miami, I still listen to the OST once in a while.
Serious Sam 3, the only sound I remember from that game is AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH-
Giana Sisters, oh that one was good too, I forgot about it. I never finished the game sadly.
Borderlands 2 had some good atmospheric music I agree.
Not familiar with the Painkiller games, one more to add to the list!
I need more DMC in my life.
Half-Life 2 is one of my favourite games, but to be honest I don't remember the music being very memorable, but I'll try to dig a few ones out :)
Never heard of Intrusion 2, the music is pretty badass
Dude, Jamestown is awesome, I was just thinking about that one before opening the link! For some reason I have a few of those games but I haven't touched them.

Thanks for the list :D
