Rock/Metal Long songs like 2112,Hemispheres by Rush or Dark Side of the Moon, or other long songs by Pink Floyd since gaming takes up very,very much time.

Power metal or classical music. Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries is epic to listen while killing some boss.

Usually I'll listen to the in-game score to most games unless it's like GTA in which I'll compile a play list that fits with the subject matter.

The Ballad of Gay Tony - Mix of artist like Break, Noisia, Overseer and The Crystal Method

TLAD - Mix of Mudvayne, Primus, Korn and Fear Factory.

So yeah, it really depends on whats going on in the game.

Amon Amarth

If vikings had iPods they would blast them during invasions.

No music, even turn game music off, full concentration on the surrounding, listening for enemy approach!

I do like the music in Half life 2 Episode 2 when the vorigaunts got to perform the larval extract and all the antlions start coming in from all directions !
That was one of my most favorite parts of any video game I've played and the music was just perfect for at that time.
