Great music at the right time makes certain moments much more memorable for me. A great game should be able to draw you in IMO and music is a very important part of creating the proper atmosphere. Pretty much all of my favorite games have at least a couple of songs that stuck with me. At the same time a lackluster soundtrack is always disappointing and can be an immediate turn off. It’s also worth noting that while graphics age a good soundtrack can be timeless.
It’s definitely not the most important aspect of a game, but I do find that it’s something that can differentiate good games from great games.
