Theme Thursday 50 -Slums & Backstreets

First thing that came to mind was the Deus Ex games. Human Revolution takes places almost exclusively in seedy underground locations.

Human Revolution - Detroit City Ambiance

Human Revolution - Detroit Marketplace

Human Revolution - Lower Hengsha Ambiance

Human Revolution - The Hive

Human Revolution - Hung Hua Brothel

Deus Ex - Hong Kong Streets

Invisible War - Return to Cairo/Shantytown

The Max Payne series is another one that takes place almost exclusively in run down cities. Max Payne 3 has more ambient themes

Max Payne - Main Theme Even though it's the menu theme it really encapsulates the seedy, underground feel of the entire game.

Max Payne 2 - Address Unknown

Max Payne 3 - Max: NJ

Max Payne 3 - 9 Circulos The track that plays when during the Favela montage

Max Payne 3 - Fabiana

There aren't really many other series that stick out to me for this genre but here are a few more good fitting tracks.

Assassin's Creed - Acre Underworld

Final Fantasy VI - Slam Shuffle

Uncharted 3 - Mind Games
