This soundtrack made me have to stop playing for a moment so I could take it in. Really incredible soundtrack and almost heartbreaking [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiPN1pra59s[/media]
[QUOTE=yellowoboe;47783979][video=youtube;T7NqyQCSz-Y]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7NqyQCSz-Y[/video][/QUOTE] Yep, I came here to post this, too. I remember the first time I played Oblivion and I was in the middle of a foresty area and this came on and everything just seemed amazing.
I listen to ambient game music all the time when drawing, so I love this thread. Anyway, hard to choose just one, so here's two very memorable ones from Mass Effect.

UT99 was great. This song in particular sets a calm but aggresive mood that made CTF really awesome. [video=youtube;iznoMeB4GYE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iznoMeB4GYE[/video]

[video=youtube;vg0Tmydj29M]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vg0Tmydj29M[/video] This is one of the best, if not the best, theme songs I've heard. Brings back memories.

[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7-2GLVlvQY[/media] I think this was also composed by the same guy who did Diablo. As matter as fact, he composed a whole track for Diablo 3, but that version of D3 was canned and they used that music in WoW
The "Level clear" musics from the two Hotline Miami games. Not very musical, but at the end of the level you're often still feeling the adrenaline and you have to walk out through room after room of blood and corpses, and for me it just perfectly conveys that feeling of "What have I done. Oh my god what have i done" [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvD0P1p6jKY[/media] [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMLknPRq5rI[/media]
Anything from MGS 1,2 and 3. Don't remember the music from 4.

I think EVE had some of the best ambient music, and here's 12 hours of it prove it. [video=youtube;lEEmORyxpho]https://youtu.be/YLlh-bt4HDA[/video]

Silent Hill had some pretty memorable and also pretty damn scary ambient tracks. [video=youtube;k_N_5FOj1So]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_N_5FOj1So[/video] [video=youtube;PAEqmp1yfpM]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAEqmp1yfpM[/video] Also I'm not quite sure this is ambient or not, it plays in a cutscene and it doesn't really sound ambient but it's my favorite track from Silent Hill 1, apart from Not Tomorrow. [video=youtube;uPxP0xTC9G0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPxP0xTC9G0[/video] It sounds so fridged and lonely.
