this has to be up there as one of the greatest soundtracks ever/along with one of the greatest films also (and where trent reznor may have taken a few ideas from 😉

gaming wise i would have to add the skyrim soundtrack (just stunning in my humble opinion)

😀

in terms of original scores im partial to the soundtracks for gladiator and last of the mohicans. For impact id go with requiem for a dream - keeping it simple ftw.

Platoon had an excellent soundtrack.

It introduced Barber's Adagio for Strings to me before it was bolloxed with that dance mix.

Danny Boyle, Quentin Tarantino & (ahem) Guy Ritchie films always seem to have great soundtracks.

One of each

Best soundtrack - The Crow

Best game soundtrack? Not really much of a gamer but the soundtrack to American McGee's "Alice" works really well.
