Chain: The Lost Footsteps -Unofficial Original Game Soundtrack-Available for a limited time (7 days OR 10-100 download times), so if you're interested in hearing the soundtrack, be quick about it. By the way, I had to rip the soundtrack by recording all the tunes LIVE, since the music files were crypted, so I hope my time put into this does someone else than just me happy. Enjoy!

Skeleton Warriors (PSX/SAT): Pretty generic platformer with a great art-style (think Army of Darkness). But the real shame is that possibly some of the best music ever in a game has gone completely unnoticed. Tommy Tallarico scored this game and seriously, it's some of his best work. There's some amazing synth orchestral tracks and it's all in Redbook too!!! The only problem is that the tracks are: a) too short; & b) most PAL copies of the game were defective... over half the music in the game is missing... except for a really loud electronic crackle... i've got 2 PAL copies of this game, and they both hailed from the same defective batch. But track down the NTSC Saturn ISO just for the music... the ISO up at Edge Emulation has the OST in 320kbps

I did! Excelent stuff. Have you played Crescendo or Divi Dead? Games in the same "genre" with great artwork, storyline and excelent soundtrack, I just wish they weten't hentai games for it realy just drags their excellence down. I might just upload their soundtrack soon for those who want to hear.

I have played Divi-Dead, but not Crescendo, so soundtrack of the latter would be great. Thanks (also for your time on hearing Chain's soundtrack).

akuma you are damn right about that Skeleton Warriors soundtrack. Terrible game even when it was new (though the rendered sprites were impressive at a glance) but the music is up there with a lesser Jerry Goldsmith or James Horner score. Fantastic stuff as I remember it.

Jim Powers: Lost Dimension in 3D for the Super Nintendo has a soundtrack that can and will redefine bitchin' as we know it.
Too bad the game itself is sort of like doing lines of finely ground glass.

Haha, that's the best description of the game I've seen yet. Great soundtrack; there's a PC-Engine CD-ROM version that might be worth checking out for the music... Oh yeah, everybody let's get crazy with DANCING FUURAIJIN from Operation Ragnagard. Er, wait, let's not. Shit, I have no idea why I pull this game up in BridgeM1 now and then, but I do... On that note, Kabuki Klash (the Far East from Eden fighter on Neo Geo) has some sweet music. Great graphics too - just a shame that nobody told them that fighters don't need random item drops

an article could easily be done on Jim Powers. Or even better, an article could be done on the sheer number of curses both borrowed and created on the spot you would use while trying to get past the first level of that back-alley abortion of a game.
However, my roommate and his friends are all huge prog/metal freaks, and I ripped the intro song to Mp3 and gave it to them and they refused to believe it was from a Super Nintendo game until I showed them. it's just that good
And I'll check on that PC Engine version, and maybe load it on the X-Box to remind myself how life is pain.

Final Fantasy Mystic Quest The whole game was made by Square America, so its shit, but the music was made by Japanese, and its great. Not really gonna jump down your throat or anything, but get your facts straight! Square didn't have a studio in the United States at the time (in fact I think only six years before that their idea of "official correspondence" was some silly garbage drawn on a sheet and then photocopied and mailed - i.e. the Final Fantasy IV not on Famicom deal). They apparently had divisions in the U.S. and Europe to deal with advertising and packaging, but that's far different from a whole game. Good call on Diablo, though. The game's pretty lousy, really, but the music is pretty stunning at times. Also, I find Dangar - UFO Robo to be pretty hard to get into, but the soundtrack is awesome.

Yeah, the only game made by Square of America, at least on SNES, was Secret of Evermore. Final Fantasy Mystic Quest was designed by Square of Japan specifically for the US, so it came out here first. They then released it in Japan as "Final Fantasy USA". It was also technically the first Final Fantasy game to reach Europe, unless you only want to count the numbered games.
You guys don't even want to know how many years it took me to get that information either. Good Lord is there a lot of misinformation about Mystic Quest out there.
I actually like the game for what it is. It's not great, but it's fun to play through on a weekend. But yeah, the music is definitely the main reason to play it. :)

Something that immediately comes to mind is Chaos Field. The game itself is a pretty underwhelming manic-esque shooter, but the it has a great techno soundtrack.

Syvalion, the SNES version, has peculiar music that won't necessarily make you want to die. As for the game, it's fairly impossible, although the intermission screens, featuring excerpts from Syvalion's DAMAGE fearing livejournal are potentially amusing, most especially the one after a final level because of the way that ridiculous smiling lizard floats past while its usually lament-laden words are on the screen.
I didn't know Spindizzy Worlds was horrible until I had internet (I just thought it was too hard), and for all I know its music is too, but I must confess I've listened to it outside of a proper game environment.
Ehhh, so file this under "mediocre games with slightly less mediocre soundtracks" should it even appear, then.
