I have the Final Fantasy VIII OST boxset and also the Tekken Tag OST. I also have the Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect soundtracks which I downloaded for free of Free Radical's site before they closed down. Burnt them to disc and used the CD covers they also offered for free.

I'd love some more fighting game soundtracks but they're something you have to hunt down online and have patience for. The Tekken ones for example are really rare on ebay and always super-expensive considering they're just CD's.

I love game soundtracks. I have a lot of various Final Fantasy/Nobuo Uematsu ones (surprise surprise).

My most recent purchase is the Lost Odyssey soundtrack. Superb game and music.

Only a few. Odin Sphere, Deathsmiles, Arcana Heart and a bunch of Project Diva CDs. Thought about getting the Halo ones in more than once. That guitar solo...hairs on back of the neck stand up every time listening to that! :o

I wanted the GTA San Andreas soundtrack at one time before I found out that an entire radio station (SF:UR) is missing :evil: . That was one of my favourites too...

I have Halo 1 & 2 OSTs. I don't generally bother tbh but there's quite a lot of oddball stuff on youtube.

Wouldn't say collect as such, but have bought I few when I find them. Some have outstanding music on them, many inspiring to create a vibe or atmosphere for creative flow...like painting.
I have the Silent Hills from 1 to 4, a couple of the Final Fantasy ones, Myst...
Would like a few more, but they are hardish to find at times, and sometimes do go for steep prices.

I don't own it, but I always liked the soundtrack to Obscure: The Aftermath on the PSP.

These are the only two I have handy;

Both from Club Nintendo. I do have lots of others - I love them, recently I got Xenoblade Chronicles which is a superb orchestral score (download from the Club), the Deus Ex: HR soundtrack is on the 'Making of..' DVD. I bought quite a few a few years back (A few Final Fantasy ones and a few other Japanese games when the local game shop shut down, clearing out lots of the CD's they'd be charging £15 each for at 50p each :D
