MGS series soundtracks are pretty dope.

I haven't finished the game yet, but Journey's OST is simply amazing.
Vanilla WoW, Celeste, and Mirrors Edge all makes me feel like when I played the games for the first time as soon as I hear them. Fantastic evocative soundtrack.
Probably showing my age with this, but Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
Kingdom hearts had some amazing original pieces and spins on classics.
One of my fav from the piano collection; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqmBRC6IOAs&t=11
Of course Halo 1, 2 and 3 aaand sims 2.
For me it's Skyrim. Streets of Whiterun, Masser, Jerral Mountains, Under an Ancient Sun, so many tracks that just instantly transport me back to the world I was immersed in throughout most of high school. They bring a sense of peace that comes from exploring in a simpler time.
Endless Space 2. The best OST I have ever come across in 20+ years of gaming. Several hundred hours in and I'm still not sick of any of the tracks.
Disasterpeace is an AMAZING composer and has done some stellar work in both video games and film as well. Here's a couple of my favorites from video games:

Yes!!!! The Fez OST is SO GOOD
I’ve always been a big fan of pretty much all of the Persona series’ soundtracks.
Mass Destruction from Persona 3 is just *chefs kiss*
All 3 Xenoblade Chronicles games have some of my all-time favorite game music
Really nice suggestions here. I personally love Starbound, Fez, Xcom ...
Celeste and bastion are nice as well ~
Ys Book 1&2 (Tg-16 CD) Red Dead Redemption Disco Elysium
Riven gives me goosebumps every time.
I haven't even played Machinarium or Samorost 3, but both of those soundtracks are masterpieces.
Definitely the Halo games for me. I think Halo 2 would be my fav.
I also just really like the music from Sonic. Sonic Generations had a great OST.
I think my absolute favorite that I haven't seen here is Gris. This game is absolutely beautiful as is the OST.
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice is surprisingly good. Surtur's theme is one of the best boss themes ive ever heard. I also really like using the Battle Brothers ost for my Pathfinder games.
Final Fantasy XIV is my singular favorite, but given all its expansions that might be cheating a touch. ;) The Final Fantasy series in general tends to have great music.
Nier series, chrono trigger, Skyrim, and there are a lot of others I've liked as well, but I think that covers all my favorites. :)
I definitely love hollow Knight's, if it wasn't obvious by my pfp.
I also love mother 3 / earthbound
kingdom hearts
most persona games
outer wilds
celeste
Chrono trigger
Ff7
Ace attorney
Paper Mario
I could go on and on tbh
Ace Attorney's OST is such a classic. I've been making my way through the trilogy on PC, and it was crazy how many of those songs I had heard covers of but never realised was from Ace Attorney.
FF7, Ff10, Halo 3, Mario Galaxy, Persona 4
Games I've played:
Deep Rock Galactic, Terraria + Calamity, RuneScape
Haven't played, but love the soundtrack:
Ace Combat 7, Payday 2, Nier: Automata, Killer Instinct
- Super Metroid
- Every. Single. Mega Man. Game. (as the kids say: so many bangers)
- Killer Instinct
- The Zelda franchise
- Dead Cells
- Celeste
- Bloodstained ROTN
- The Castlevania franchise
- Hollow Knight
- Nier: Automata
Sorry, it's early here, I can't think of any more.
Crypt of the Necrodancer is a classic. Also, Metal Geat Rising and, more recently, Sonic Frontiers.
Kenshi's soundtrack has such an amazing, surreal sound. Such a vibe, love it.
For me, it's Doom (2016), Battlefield 1, Hotline Miami, and Witcher 3 (even though after a 100 hours in some songs got a bit boring)
Celeste, especially Farewell.
Divinity Original Sin 2 is my go-to.
The Maxis Sim City game has a great OST from Chris Tilton. Quite partial to Riven and Hotline Miami too.
Honourable mention for Bastion too. And sometime I like the This War of Mine acoustic guitar stuff.
