My Favourite Video Game Music.

"Let us dwell a moment on this symptom of highest culture—I call it the pessimism of strength. [...]
In such a state it is precisely the good that needs 'justifying,' i.e., it must be founded in evil and danger or involve some great stupidity: then it still pleases. [...] If he [man] in praxi advocates the preservation of virtue, he does it for reasons that recognize in virtue a subtlety, a cunning, a form of lust for gain and power.
This pessimism of strength also ends in a theodicy, i.e., in an absolute affirmation of the world—but for the very reasons that formerly led one to deny it—and in this fashion to a conception of this world as the actually-achieved highest possible ideal." (Source: Nietzsche, The Will to Power, section 1019; Kaufman translation.)

I have to chime in and say that I love the music in Twisted Metal: Black, especially Vesti la Giuppa. There's something absolutely charming about listening to opera while blowing shit up.
"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don't bother concealing your thievery - celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: 'It's not where you take things from - it's where you take them to.'" - Jim Jarmusch

There is a song on the .Hack games for the PlayStation 2 that I liked. Legend Of Zelda: Windwaker had a good intro theme song. Also, speaking of Twisted Metal, Twisted Metal 4 had a Rob Zombie song that I liked.

Twisted Metal 4 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tk2Xx9-wjBE

Oh, and of course my new favorite, Mirrors Edge theme song Still Alive.

Mirrors Edge: Still Alive - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TERyxFfMqDk

When ever I practice parkour I think of this song.
