I was thinking about this, and then saw that it's BEAR MCCREARY asking. Goddamn. It's hard for me to pick entire scores, as opposed to individual pieces (like his Watchtower). But...
Hollow Knight - Christopher Larkin
StarCraft - Stafford, Duke, Hayes, Bush
Cowboy Bebop - Seatbelts

Hey BlueSky folks… what are your top three favorite scores for film, TV, or games?
I’ll start! These are the three I’m feeling tonight…
- Conan the Barbarian by Basil Poledouris
- Star Trek The Motion Picture by Jerry Goldsmith
- Close Encounters of the Third Kind by John Williams

Hollow Knight is one of the few scores where I listen to the whole thing start to finish.
Cowboy Bebop is Cowboy Bebop. 3, 2, 1, let's jam!
Mass Effect 1 is up there for sure. Along with Leaving Earth from ME3.
Anthem by Sarah Schachner. Super underrated IMO.
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury. The franchise has great music, but this one knocked it out of the park.
The Alien from Annihilation will be with me forever.
Cohen's Masterpiece from BioShock. I hope I can master it before I age beyond the physical ability to play it.
OMG how did I forget arguably the most iconic video game score of all time...
Journey. Austin Wintory. COME ON.

Luke Cage - but again, more soundtrack than score.
But yeah, Journey. That should be number 1 with a bullet.
