Another vote for Assassins Creed and Jesper Kyd. When I first heard this it sent shivers down my spine. Love those 8 notes that form the main theme...

I still spend many an hour enjoying old SID classics as well. Pleased there's some modern games with catchy tunes too.

Agree with Dexter comments...must add Game of Thrones to the insanely good and catchy list too.

Heh, I'd almost forgotten about the plasma type effects on the Jag VLM. My favourites :) Must also remember to rebuy the T2K soundtrack. Some git stole it, and though I have many versions of the game on CD, I miss having the standalone ST.

I'd also forgotten about Tetrisphere....dear God that soundtrack rocks....must DL it for DJ purposes (or can the ST be bought?).

Super Hexagon's soundtrack by Chipzel is great. In fact, most of her music is awesome if somewhat samey.

Bit Pilot in iOS has a great chiptune soundtrack by Sabrepulse.

Similarly, Cubed Rally Racer 1 & 2 (also on iOS) have cool chiptune tracks by 8 Bit Weapon.

When I get a chance I'll post a more comprehensive list of good iOS game tunes.

Here's a slightly unusual one. I will certainly admit to humming it at work, too.



And probably my most-whistled theme ever:



Except, maybe, for this one:
