Can be on the radio, actual use in-game as bgm, etc. Just thinkin' bout lots of artists I got into because they had a song in a game.
The first one I really think about is Grand Theft Auto Vice City and its radio stations. Hard to pick a fave... I used to be fully VRock, but these days I'm a bit more FlashFM or Wave103. Either way there's a whole plethora of music I love and was introduced to in those games.
Brutal Legend is another radio fave. Mouth of Metal was so sick... even apart from all the celebs already in the game. Such a great selection.
Genki Rockets made it into two games, No More Heroes and Child of Eden. It was CoE that did it for me since it was basically built around their first album, but the No More Heroes inclusion was my first exposure
I never thought Saints Row the Third played especially good but I can't deny that this mission ruled
