[Salty Shogun]

Every time I beat Dark Souls 2 I was entranced by this incredible song.

But nothing has been as powerful to me as "Way to Fall" by Starsailor for the end of MGS3. A perfect way to end the game.

Also can't forget the JOY that is the Skullgirls credits theme. Just the most pleasant.

Donkey Kong Country, DKC Tropical Freeze, Metroid, Super Mario World, Star Fox 64, Metal Gear Solid, MGS3, Undertale and Persona 4 come to mind.

Double Dragon: Neon's too, because that was INCREDIBLE.

Honorable mention to Resident Evil 2 as well because, well, yeah.

Edit: Can't believe I forgot about Yoshi's Island. It still gives me chills to this day.

 

[City 17]

GLaDOS takes the cake.

I can't really think of any original songs that haven't been mentioned already (you're killin' it, GAF!), but I do have to give Telltale props for their godly choices of licensed music for both their openings and closing credits. Whilst Tales from the Borderlands has the incredible opening song choices, The Walking Dead games that tend to have the poignant closing credit music. Special mention goes to TWD S1's Take Us Back, S2's In The Pines, Michonne's catchy Wolf and the chilling To The Bone. Tales from the Borderlands also had Silver Lining at end of the series. Thanks for getting me addicted to First Aid Kit, Telltale!

A lot of good responses in here, but my personal favourite is the Max Payne 2 credits. This song (Late Goodbye by Poets of the Fall) was written specifically for the game:

Max Payne 2 Credits

 

[Revas]

Mass Effect.

 

[.hacked]

Prey

 

[Magnus]

Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger for sure.

 

[Stoze]

Tales from the Borderlands was pretty great

Fantastic art and music

Really good pick, all the licensed songs in Tales are amazing.

My favorite is definitely RDR though.

 

[zeemumu]

I enjoy that piano excerpt of I am all of me at the end of shadow the hedgehog

[Md Ray]

One of the best!

 

[AgentP]

Doom 2016.

 

[Mhmmm 2077]

If I am not mistaken (it's been some time), in Nex Machina you hear this song after beating the game.



The thing is, you hear it when starting the game too, but only after beating the game you hear the version with lyrics.
So fucking cool.

 

[Md Ray]

Also this. Soo good.
