It's got to be the Halo series

The production level was off the charts

EVERYONE knows how the halo theme goes

How multiple themes in the series go

Cant say the same for other games

Recently found bravely default to have a great sound track. Not best ever but was really good. I think the mario or tetris themes win for me.

The reason why Halo is number 1 in soundtrack is because they stuck with their original theme, and built around that. They created a classic, and adapted and evolved it over time. Much like the gameplay. They kept the formula the same, and never changed things up too drastically.

Do you mean theme? Or soundtrack?

I'm going with Fallout New Vegas.

Or civ 5, really enjoy the unique music to each civ.

Legend of Zelda. I don't think it's particularly close, either.

I would take OOT or LTTP as the best in the series but I'm heavily biased towards both.

The Mega Man series by far, especially parts I-III.

"Dr. Wily Stage 1" sounds amazing even at 8-bits.

Legend of Zelda.

Definitely this is more accurate than saying Halo. I mean, most well-made RPGs have better music than Halo. Kinda what they are known for and it makes sense too. If you are wondering in places for hours, you better have some badass music...and they do.

The Sonic the Hedgehog series has some amazing soundtracks. Sonic Unleashed and the Japanese Sonic CD soundtrack being my favorites. Street Fighter 3rd Strike's music is great too
Adabat Jungle Joyride Night music in Unleashed is absolutely beautiful.

Soundtrack? Grand Theft Auto: Vice City's is still classic. Talk about a primer for the 1980s.

Halo 2's soundtrack had a 17-minute, 4-part song by Incubus which was absolutely terrible. It also had a Breaking Benjamin song on it that was not terrible.

Score? Too many to choose from. Final Fantasys 7 and 9 really stand out for me.
