and rock band and guitar hero dont count !

 

[Anachronism]

I haven't the faintest clue where you'd get sheet music for it, but Shadow of the Colossus all the way.

For me, like with films, a good soundtrack can turn a good game into a great game. SotC would still have been really good without its soundtrack, but the soundtrack it did had just ramped it up to even greater levels of epicness.

The best piece in a Video-Game ever is Coen's Masterpiece from Bioshock, although I don't know where you can find it.

Anything by Nobuo Uematsu. You can easily find piano sheet music for a lot of his music too.

 

[Lucia di Lammermore]

I don't know about soundtracks, but you can get the music for Still alive, (portal's ending credits song) here [http://topazstorm.com/sheet_music/still_alive.pdf].
Edit: I'm not really that fond of the arrangement, but it was the only thing I could find right now. Also, if you can google it, you can find it, Especially if you're into FF, or nintendo games (they seem the most well represented.)

 

[Monocle Man]

I don't know how they're called, but I really enjoy a few songs on Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII

Does anyone know if there's a full version of that tune you hear when you hold the PSP cursor on the game icon of Crisis Core?

Also, I did a quick google and I found http://www.vgsmworld.com/2.html
It contains piano, clarinet and trumpet versions with music sheets of some nintendo games.

The Max Payne theme song is so easy to figure out on piano. I don't have the sheet music here, though.
Also, Shadow of the Colossus, Okami, Bioshock, Fallout 3.

 

[Inarticulate_Underachiever]

I'm very fond of the Mass Effect, KoToR, Oblivion and Fallout 3 soundtracks.

Edit:It is the end part of Burden of Truth. Here is a youtube channel with most if not all the tracks from the game. http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=DA1F11B5893063D7

Castlevania Judgement.

It has a lot of tasty tracks.

My favorite track is Time Reaper.

 

[Abedeus]

Diablo 2, Neverwinter Nights and Guild Wars. One is Blizzard and they make awesome music, and the other two have Jeremy Soule.

 

[Kiutu]

Let me introdue you to...Jeremy Soule, aka the guy who makes the music for The Elder Scrolls. Probably actually could find sheet music for it too. I like Morrowind's music better than Oblivion though. Rise of Nerevar being my favorite. (The main music that starts with the thmping sorta sound)

 

[D_987]

Lost Odyssey and Infinite Undiscovery have great soundtracks.

 

[LINKXIII]

Can we say Guitar Hero/Rock Band titles? If so, than either Rock Band 2 or Guitar Hero: Metallica.

No I wouldn't count em cause its kinda cheating

 

[Connor Lonske]

All the Half Life games have great soundtracks in my opinion. Halo CE was also good.

If anyone's angry with my previous statement, Bioshock.

Im not angry and I do agree there
