If you just like the 8-bit sound, type 8-bit in Youtube. There's also an active composer scene for 8-bit retro-style music.

In terms of real game music, Doom was pretty good.

My fave Civ3 tune:

I love 8-bit music too

Here is a nice little piece:

I admit to liking this song. People complained so much about jazz in a civ game, and said this song sounded like Kenny G (although he is pretty talented), now we'll never hear anything different in a civ game again. Don't get me wrong, I love classical, but I wish they'd experiment more in the modern age.

I almost want to install civ3 and play a game. I haven't played since civ4 came out.

 

[Kyriakos]

Good choice Disgustipated, i remember listening to it and liking it too

 

[Takhisis]

I need to play some epic instead of so many mods…

As was said, the Command and Conquer series had a pretty awesome soundtrack under the reign of Frank Klepacki.

As you command, sensei!

I'm not well-versed in the Tiberian series, but I really like this track:

Someone already posted Hell March, and while it's often-derided, I myself always preferred the remake more:

May have to do with the fact I was brought into the series by RA2 and I tend to be biased towards the things that bring me into a series, so. (Sonic Adventure 2's role in bringing me back into the fandom, for example)

And while he didn't do much for the recent games, EA at least gave him his rightful place as composer of the third variation:

And, for a last one, I always found Grinder, the RA2 menu theme, to be kickass as well as represent the plot nicely:

In no particular order.

1: Baba Yetu
2: Joao's, Mehmed and Cyrus's Late Era Musics.
3: All the music in Rome: Total War and Medieval Total War
4: One-Winged Angel.

Battlefield 2 music

[cardgame]

San Andreas has all the best music.

 

[Takhisis]

Nonsense. Vice City and GTA III both kick SA's arse.

 

[cardgame]

GTA III had a small, small fraction of decent music. San Andreas vastly outperforms it.

I have not played VC though

Tropico 2!!! Only thing about it better than the original. The song are so awesomely piratey I found myself listening more to the music than actually playing the game.
