I think this forum needs a better search. I did a search for this topic before creating my own and couldn't find it despite how obvious it is that the topic already existed. Maybe an option other than sort by activity or title, maybe a sort by relevance? Or a thread where you can ask whether a thread exists yet or not given how much faster the users here are than any search!  

 

anyways, on topic:

World of Goo - Are You Coming Home, Love MOM

[Langdon]

The music from Bastion was absolutely amazing.

[Askew]

GTA: Vice City, and San Andreas, Megal Gear Solid, Various Final Fantasy, Bioshock Infinite is epic as well.

 

I love a lot of what's been posted up already, but these are the ones that leaped to mind straight away.

 

This kind of thing as you walk throught the waters of the baptistry while taking your first steps into Colombia are sublime and instantly memorable.

 

Will The Circle Be Unbroken (Choral)

http://youtu.be/LAIS-ADK6c8

 

and this transition from crass strings to blissful strings as you burst through the clouds is another piece of epic sound design.

 

Welcome To Colombia

In Metal Gear Solid 2 when I first heard this music I was thinking to myself holy freaking mars bars this is something good.
