I've been playing Sega Extreme Sports a lot recently and I realised that a major part of it's appeal is the Ninja Tunes soundtrack. It's so well matched to the action, it's almost hypnotic. I found myself sticking the game onto replay and just chilling out to the beats lol

I suppose Shenmue and D2 would be my other choices with Tony Hawks Pro Skate 2 and Matt Hoffmans BMX getting honourable mentions.

Shenmue, hands down.

though i do like the first two tony hawk soundtracks as well as the matt hoffman and dave mirra bmx games, my favorite soundtrack is from omikron the nomad soul. another game that has music that matches the game very well is REZ.

Ditto. It is such an epic soundtrack and the score is simply amazing.

Grandia II and Jet Set Radio. (How has nobody mentioned JSR before? )

shenmue & rez

btw, evil twin has a killer sountrack too (very tim burton)

CRAZY TAXI!

Phantasy Star Online - My absolute favorite.

The entire game has the vibe of a Tim Burton movie with the play style of a Tim Schaeffer (Psychonauts, etc...) game.

Others I liked a lot:
Grandia II - Classic meets Techno
Mobile Suit Gundam: Federation vs. Zeon - Must be a Gundam fan to appreciate. The ending was just perfect.
Sakura Wars I - IV - Classical/Theatrical
Shenmue - Traditional Japanese ambience.
Star Wars: Episode I: Racer - John Williams
Vigilante 8: The 2nd Offense - 70's-style Disco

I don't know if this counts, but the music from the Phantasy Star quest, Sega Dome Fire Swirl is nice. It's from another Sega game called Burning Rangers.
