Hi Night_Creature, good idea for a thread. If I was going to be critical I'd say you've picked some pretty crappy choices! But each to their own of course.
Could I suggest that there are some much better options...

Why Why Why do people like the Gods music? Was it the overused samples? I always thought it was horrible neo-house crap. Just as bad as the Speedball 2 intro. Whoopee doo, someone (Tim Simenon of Bomb the Bass I believe) stuck together a beat and samples and a discordant 'melody'. I did like Xenon 2 (again Bomb the Bass but this time with a hook and melody) though, but with Magic Pockets they'd pretty much stopped trying whatsoever.
I thought the Turrican 2 main theme was excellent, and I especially liked the way it gave a nod to Turrican 1 at the beginning of it. Yo Joe! was a surprisingly (in that I'd never heard of it when it was released) good one, and Supercars 2's main theme also deserves a mention.
I thought Shadow of the Beast games' intro music was ho-hum but with nice instruments somewhat. 2 for example has a loop that only runs for a few seconds. _________________ "The virus of hate infects the ignorant mind" - Biohazard

Speaking of Cannon Fodder, the main game tune is excellent as well as the obviously ground-breaking intro song. _________________ "The virus of hate infects the ignorant mind" - Biohazard
Ok firstly, how many of you have noticed that the red guitarists hands are in time with the chuck rock music intro? haha
How does it matter who made the songs or how the songs were made aslong as someone appreciates or likes and even loves some of those tunes, surely that is all that matters? each to their own, just because you think someone has rushed a piece of music or sampled someone elses tunes and dont like it, doesn't mean everyone else does, I for one, love the magic pockets tune, i love the Gods music, and i love the Speedball 2 music, doesn't mean it rubbish if u think it is! end of rant..besides how else would people in the music industry be where they are today if everyone followed each other in taste and choices, infact that goes for the whole of life i guess..i mean someone has to like Rhianna right???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????no???????????????ok lol guess not
