I still maintain the Neverhood has by far the most imaginative, original and all around best soundtrack ever created. Unfortunatly, it lacked the popularity required to get such tunes around.

I voted for Command & Conquer, but I think the best music I've ever heard in a game was from the Homeworld series. The music always started up at exactly the right time, always perfectly fit the mood of the current situation, and always inspired the perfect blend of emotions. Not to mention, Yes's The Ladder is my all time favorite song... ever.

I also thought Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance had incredible music, but I can only partially consider that computer music. The PC version is uber rare because like the same week it came out for the PC it was recalled because the graphics were very incompatible with most computers, the control scheme was really hard, and few people had DVD drives at the time. I was lucky enough to be one of the few hundreds of people who nabbed a copy before they were yanked away, and I absolutely love that music.

Speaking of scores, I remember I only bought Serious Sam - The Second Encounter after having heard the great music in the demo version. It really blends in well with the "gameplay".

As a NiN fan it feels really wrong to me not to vote for Quake, but it would be just as wrong not to vote for Monkey Island here, so I did the last since the game is better

Vice City has a superb soundtrack, but the songs are not especially written for the game and the game hasn't got that abandonware feel I think a game should have (well in this context anyway), so I wouldn't have voted for that. I also think Doom would have fit in nicely on this list.

Out of those games, it's definately the C&C games that have the best music!

Frank Klepacki owns!!! (the guy that makes the C&C music, if you didn't know) Hell March from RA should have earned him an award, if it didn't.

Several of the games soundtracks are even better than the games themselves. (Red Alert2 <- the only thing I like about this game is the awesome music , Renegade, Tiberian Sun.)

http://www.sfu.ca/~rfarahbo/home/theneverhood/TNMP3.htm Again I post this link, only because C&C and such may have some great stuff (Hell march, yea!) but it can't beat such innovation.

Another bunch of decent music I remember that was pretty good was from Unreal Tournament, the first one, some really good tracks for some of the levels, really added a mood to them.

Wasn't around when the nominations were done, but i'd go for Homeworld. The music fitted the game perfectly.

Or settlers 2 because i can't get that bloody tune out my head 5 years after a i first played it.
