Hello! I'm searching for games with good ost. I'm particullary fond of the ps1 and ps2 era but feel free of reccomending whatevere you want. (english its not my first language btw).
 
PS2:
Gran Turismo 3
Final Fantasy X
Persona 3 FE
Persona 4
The Bouncer
Zone of the Enders
MGS3

PS1:
Tekken 2 and 3
Soul Blade
G-Darius
Final Fantasy VII, VIII, and IX
Legend of Legaia
Suikoden 2
Rival Schools
Marvel Super Heroes
 
Grandia, Chrono Cross, Symphony of the Night. obviously FF7. i'm not a huge ps1 player. as for ps2 titles, there's actually so many that i can't name that many specific ones right now. i'll look over my catalog and maybe i can get back to you on this.
 
Another Centurys Episode 2, the game original tracks and not the music based on the series featured in the game, has a stellar soundtrack.

I have it on my phone and I think of a track from it often, so good.

It's not too different from the armored core 3 series sound tracks though, and 4, but thats not ps1/2

The megaman series is also great, metal gear has a great soundtrack.

Final fantasy 7 and 8 are great, with 8's being so good it's joked that its a sound track disguised as a game.

9's soundtrack, while good, is not anywhere near as good as 7 or 8.
 
Seriously, try some of the Ace Combat OSTs from the PS2 era. They have some bangers that I still listen to this day. My favorite is Zero from Ace Combat Zero: The Belkan War

 
Xenogears
Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Legend of Mana
Final Fantasy 6, 7, 8 and 9
Parasite Eve
Ecsaform
Star Ocean 1 & 2
Valkyrie Profile
Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness
SMT3 Nocturne Maniax / Lucifer's Call
Devil Summoner Raidou Kuzunoha 1 & 2
Digital Devil Saga 1 & 2
Bully
Armored Core series, going by ps1/2 generations, Nexus in particular is kind of a favorite of mine alongside with a few tracks from Last Raven, although 3 and Silent Line have an interesting distinct sound
Steambot Chronicles
Metal Saga
Jak X
Metal Gear Solid games, especially 3
Shadow Hearts 1 & 2
Okami
Not sure if the GTA radio stations qualify but V-Rock from Vice City/Stories alongside with K-DST and Radio X from San Andreas were fun to listen to.
 
Where do I start






 
Not many people seem to talk about it but Chris Huelsbecks soundtrack for Tunnel B1 (ps1) is epic.

It's a good game but like I said quite forgotten about.
