RE: Wonderful music in games.

My favorite game music, I guess, is the soundtrack of Gothic 3 (a combination of orchestra and classic guitar) and Diablo 2 (really gloomy and always interesting, nothing repeats too much). The 70's music from GTA Vice City really gets me groovin'. And Duke Nukem's main theme really gets me going (here's a nice version of it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-y0MdPXslo )

But the music that actually impressed me the most while playing a game is the music of Enclave (an old, seems like obscure, action RPG). I've never heard anything like it. It has calm, soothing music while exploring, but when entering a battle, it would fade perfectly into a harsher, strong music. The magic was that both tracks had the same tempo, melody, but the battle music had loud drums, horns, choir, and got you really pumped. The music shifts flawlessly. While playing, I couldn't even tell there were two tracks, though I felt the influence from the music. Example:

Battle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqDUZmVmgcI

Just listen alternatively at small parts of it and you'll get the point.
