It's funny, a lot of people say that they don't notice the music for games. But often the music helps make a game. Ever bought a budget game? The music on those generally sucks to hell and you just want to turn it down and put something of your own on it. When a game has good music [i.e. appropriate for that area, well composed, etc] then it helps you gain more of a feel for that area and gives the game something extra. Composers of game music are often not given the recognition that their movie composer counterparts are given.
I pretty much only listen to game music now days apart from a few exceptions. I even have some tracks from some games I have never played just because they sound great as pieces on their own.
