Videogame music is an acquired taste. But for fans of this obscure genre of music, there have been a few fantastic songs in recent years. Here are a few highlights:

Halo Theme
- The Marty O'Donnel classic in it's purest form. Epic and moving.

Still Alive from Portal
- Quicky and funny, but eerie at the same time. I feel like every piece of electronics in my house is watching me now.

Dancing Mad by the Black Mages - If you can sit through this, you are hardcore.

M4 Pt2 by Faunts from Mass Effect 1 - Best use of licensed music in a game EVER. ANYWHERE. This song fit the game perfectly and opened my eyes to a fantastic band I would have never heard of otherwise. Perfect. Seriously, do whatever you can to get your hands on their two full length albums and the M4 EP.

Those Minterals sort of from Mass Effect 2 - Okay, it's not official, but it's bad ass. And I quote "she's a skeezy how, tell the illusive man, he don't believe me tho..." Classic.
