Zelda by far. Timeless classics. Every tune, every jingle reminds me of something fun. From the forest tune, to the Nocturne Of Shadow, to Zeldas Lullaby, and the best one of all was the amazing Gerudo Fortress tune.
One of my favourite gaming set pieces is when you stride into Gerudo Valley for the first time, on horseback, the sun shining. Then you jump over the canyon with the waterfall, to that amazing tune.

Hm. The soundtrack fo Wanderer's from Ys III was classic. So was most of the entire Castlevania series. Street Fighter music was good in its day before Revisions 18,000 B. Resident Evil Code Veronica actually has an amazing soundtrack, which I have on CD. I also enjoyed Perfeck Dark's themes.
Halo's music is lackluster and boring.
