Chrono Trigger’s OST is impeccable

Other good ones:  
DOOM 2016  
Pokémon Emerald Version (especially Battle! Deoxys). The remakes in Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby are good too.  
Caves of Qud has one of the best main menu themes in my opinion

There’s a distinct lack of FM synth going on in these recommendations, not one of my personal favorites but Thunder Force IV goes real hard. Yuzo Koshiro cutting his teeth with crispy FM synth hardware is definitely what elevates the EO1-3 soundtracks.

First off, I agree with Brandon. WoW has a LOT of really incredible music. The Ocarina soundtrack is a classic.

Second, my favorite in recent memory is the Cadence of Hyrule soundtrack. The rhythm gamified versions of the old Zelda tracks are truly amazing.

Shadow of the Colossus has an amazing soundtrack, definitely worth a listen. The game is incredible.

Journey is also great.

I always liked the Vermillion city theme in Pokemon Red too.

Does GTA Vice City count?
