Best Video Game Music

[WilliamWeird1313]

Pretty much every boss fight in the original Nightmare Creatures had some butt-kicking music. Actually, the whole soundtrack was pretty cool, but the boss fights were the coolest.

Keep in mind, I'm posting this right now on a computer with no speakers, so if the following video has crappy audio, or none at all, I'm sorry. I'm just posting what I guess/hope is the right tunes.

Man O man! Did I love that game! It was sooo cool, even though the controls were quite sluggish and there were a few glitches. You can't hear the music that well on that vid Bill, it doesn't seem to feature the "NC theme" track on it either.

The Streets of Rage games on the Sega Genesis had some great music.

I also always thought that Shibobi 3: Return of the Ninja Master for the Sega Genesis had some catchy musical themes.

I always liked the NES game Willow (based on the movie). It was a complete Zelda ripoff, but the game was lots of fun, and the music was catchy.

I've never really played Chrono Cross (I guess I should since I adore Chrono Trigger) but its soundtrack is superb:
