Oh god, oh god, where to even start. There are just so many good soundtracks in modern games it's baffling.
Let's start with Bastion. I personally say, it is one of the most fitting and awesome soundtrack for a game, ever. In their own there are better tracks, but they just fit the game so well, it's ridiculous. Transistor had good music as well, but it just didn't nail it as well as Bastion.
Chrono Cross, and Chrono Trigger. I believe no one will argue with me as well on those.
Now on less mentioned ones:
Actually someone made a collection from several good (most are older) music, more of a run in background styles, but still neat.
It seems, the forum doesn't like me linking too many youtube videos at once, even in a spoiler tag, so I'll break it into 2

Now on less mentioned ones:
Here are two from Ace Combat games:
Zero, from Ace Combat Zero, Ultimate, epic, final confrontation and you hear this. It's a really good track.
Then from Ace Combat 5. I believe this needs no reasons. In an air combat game (hell any action game), this kind of music is sadly rare.
My personal favouite, the soundtrack from Company of Heroes 2. The entire soundtrack is plain epic, even the slower ones, and capture the war perfectly.
But! For those, who didn't play with it. The game is generally quiet, until a big battle starts, then one of the confrontation music just start to creep in an gets louder. Just imagine hearing this during an epic fight:
The expansions had some really good music as well. You guys should really listen to them.
