"Let him speak!"
Video game music is cool. Got into a relaxing vg music thread on here sometime ago and have been digging into chill-ambient tracks ever since. (Don't know if that's what you're looking for though). Anyway, I'll go with a classic.

Third Place
Half-Life - Vague Voices

Second Place
Half-Life - Nepal Monastery

First Place
Half-Life - Drums And Riffs
Probably favorite vg track of all time. Everyone seems to forget this game had music sometimes.

Also I'm guessing that people leaving on loading screens, menus, or idling in levels just to here the background sounds is how the whole study/low-fi/chill-hop etc. thing started.

Please do add licensed music. If it is a track that is in a video game then go for it! :)

Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag

The shanties really kick up the atmosphere here. Also good for doing work/chores unsurprisingly.

Far Cry 3

Knew a dude who worked on this game and generally have IRL memories related to it. Anyway, have some more hard to narrow down music for the edge of the world.

"Let him speak!"
Ecco the Dolphin Sega CD version

Don't know if they're really favorites/the best but they're memorable I think. Whole thing is kind of classic 90s electronica.
