prob the first Deus Ex, the Infinity engine games like Planescape Torment and Baldurs Gate, and the first two Fallout games...of course the old nintendo stuff by Hip Tanaka and Koji Kondo are fantastic.

The music from Fallout is probably my favorite because it used to psyche me out and make me not want to actually play the game because it sounded so dark and bleak (which matched the original games so perfectly).

even though they arent orignal music, the radio stations in GTA have always been masterfully put together from GTA1 and on.

They were original music*. Grand Theft Auto 3 was the first one to use licensed music.

*) Apart from the classical station probably, because you don't need to license classical music.

you are correct, I just mispoke...i think one of the houser bros owned a record company (moving shadow records iirc) that supplied most of the tunes for GTA1 and 2, and maybe a few on 3 as well.
