Can you post again please, image not displaying.

Works for me, but I've re-uploaded it

Ok then, this one shouldn't be too hard. Game I've never played much myself, but that music...

The Running Man.

Bad movie, bad game.

Chrono Trigger. Around 1999 I had never played an RPG before, I tried loading CT and I was hooked to it for hours. It was the start of my love for JRPGs.

I'm in

Coconut Beach from Out Run. There is always something magic in speeding among the palm trees, the sea and the advertising signs while the speakers fire up Magical Sound Shower.

Congrats to the winner. Ferrari wasn't a good bet for me (6th), but I'd still not have Mercs or Max on my team See you all next season!

Huelsbeck, Hippel and Whittaker would make my podium.

Among those not mentioned I think Karsten Obarski (author of SoundTracker) deserves a mention, he did some great tracks (Amegas, Sarcophaser, Crystal Hammer and Future Tank to name a few).

It was released late in the life of the PS1, when all eyes were on the PS2, but it's one of my favourite RPGs of all time. Fantastic game. Hard choice though, the PS1 had tons of incre...

Deflektor is my favourite among his own, with a great melody and its bouncy-Daglishly feeling.

Cobra is probably my favourite of them all, a fantastic version of the movie music (pretty much the only good thing about the C64 version).

Out Run 2019.

A slighly richer colour palette on the C64, and two more sound channels on the Amiga. That's about it
