Any system counts.
For me, due to a recent hit of nostalgia, Super Mario Galaxy, mainly because of this song.

Oh niiiice...
But, with no link, though, mine has to be "Sanctuary" from Kingdom Hearts 2, and a close battle for first with song "One-Winged Angel"...
(starts humming)
Battlefield 2142, although being a so-so game, had epic music.
Actually 2142 was an awesome game aside from the bugs and rampant copy protection schite. Assauting/defending a Titan was full of win.

The Music from the shalebridge Cradle in Thief Deadly shadows.
Its not really music but just a mix of scary as noises and loops that made the level so freakn scary as it was.
If you got no idea what im talking about go youtube it or something. Best Level ever made in any game-ever.

I'm gonna have to go with the Majora's Mask soundtrack, as well as most other Zelda sountracks. Favorite song out of all of them is the Song of Healing for it's simplicity and it's emotional impact. There's a lot of good VG music out there, I'm just to tired too list it.

Any music done by Jeremy Soule is at the top of my list for game tunes. Guild Wars soundtracks, Total Annihilation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wl84pH9mgBE), SupCom, the Elder Scrolls (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQsC5IEXDag&feature=related) games, you name it.
I'm also a big fan of the music from Titan Quest. Along with the wonderful spread of Greek (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48Vt5JcL_aw&feature=related), Egyptian and far east influences depending on the levels, they've got a slick metal adaptation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfLjJqqBLsc) of their main game theme for the credits! It's a real shame Iron Lore closed down, I got the chance to chat with Brian Sullivan and the crew (and a signed copy of the game!) and they're great guys with a ton of creative talent.
More recently the tunes from Crayon Physics (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZdc-kXCUV8) and the new Prince of Persia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSS_S9bHvgE&feature=related) stuck in my head.
