That's a tough one. And I don't think it's fair. From one generation to the next, music in video games has evolved quite a bit.
And each console had its own quirks for the music chip. Some later consoles played directly from CDs.
On the NES, I think Megaman 2 and Journey to Silius had kick-ass chip tune soundtracks.
On the SNES, I'd say Uniracer had a great rock soundtrack. Star Fox also had an epic soundtrack. Oh and Killer Instinct was fantastic. It even came with a music CD with the soundtrack. But my all time fave has to be the TMNT IV game soundtrack. And I'll give a special shoutout to Chrono Trigger.
On the Sega Genesis, I think the Sonic series had an amazing newjack and fusion jazz style soundtrack.
On N64, and PlayStation I particularly LOVED the Wipeout racing game soundtracks with music from my all time favorite electronica bands of the time. Goldeneye 007 holds a special place in my heart as well.
After that it gets really hard because so many games have incredible music. It's hard to choose.
Ahhh but which Still Alive?
You probably meant the one from Portal, but I much prefer the one from Mirror's Edge! Beautiful song!
Sonic Mania - Hydrocity Zone Act 2
Mortal kombaaaaaaat
Pa pa pa tum tum tum pa pa pa
Celeste and Pokemon mystery dungeon explorers of sky
TF2
half life franchise (seriously every game has perfect and fitting soundtrack) super meat boy (both the original 2010 soundtrack composed by danny b and the 2015 soundtrack made by various artists rock. but the 2010 soundtrack is one of the most iconic soundtracks ever made in my opinion.)
Risk of Rain 2
Teenage mutant Ninja turtles iv: turtles in time
Definitely the best video game music is from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance. Stains of Time is my favorite.
I love listening to Rimworlds OST and Hotline Miamis soundtrack.
Jet Set Radio Future and Jet Grind Radio. No question. Hideki Nakanuma is a genius.
Oh and Dance Dance Revolution 3rd, 4th, and 5th miss.
The original Destiny sound track was fire
Just one track? The Requiem of Shield Knight from Shovel Knight.
Skyrim was pretty epic… even the “wandering around” music was perfect.
But my #1 is Still Alive (closing theme song to Portal).
Haven't seen it mentioned, but, Spiritfarer
Ys
Hands down, DOOM Eternal
Eternal had some great beats. Hell on earth is a great track. I love the demonic chant for the arctic hell base too.
I'm surprised that no one mentioned the Metal Gear Solid series. The music was incredible, and it's got one of the most memorable songs in Snake Eater. I'm also a big fan of Can't Say Goodbye to Yesterday .
