The Opened Way is one of my favorite tunes from that game.

Kow Otani is amazing.

That game is amazing.

Assassians Creed - Echoes of the Roman Ruins
Minecraft had at least 4 or 5 songs that I'd listen to all the time.

Gates of Thunder for the NEC CD systems (Turbo Duo / Duo / PC Engine CD / TG16 CD).

Hit up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EH5LUTlTIBA and skip forward to 32:44 however there's good stuff across the board to be found in there.

Lords of Thunder had great music as well.

Skip to 38:07 like is suggested in the comments there. 11:18 is the beginning to a nice, heavy, angry track.

Of course YouTube doesn't do these justice compared to a CD.

It's a total fuckin' shame the masses never got to enjoy such splendor.

I was rockin' out to this stuff through my stereo system while most people were listening to blips and bloops on SNES & Genesis (both of which I too had)

Quite fond of Final Fantasy music in USA FF2 & FF3, though, as far as cartridges went at the time.

I can't pick a favourite, there would be too many contenders... but here is one of my favs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3dB0qEcG20

Can't forget the Grim Fandango soundtrack: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-K8R1hDG9E

Lucasarts had some talent back in the day, audio and otherwise...
