    Default Best hucard soundtracks?

    I was playing some Turbografx lately, and I realized I really enjoy the chiptune music on hucard games. It's got a very unique synth. Most of the good games I know are on CD with CD soundtracks though. Any Turbo fans here who can recommend the best hucard game soundtracks? CD games with chiptune soundtracks (like Snatcher, Dead of the Brain, etc.) count too. Here are some of my favourites for now:

    Air Zonk
    Bubblegum Crisis
    Magical Chase
    Outrun
    Parodius

    I am a big fan of the music in Legendary Axe 2. It's dark and moody. I really enjoy it.

    I actually really like almost all the Hu-Card music I've heard.

    Just about anything Star Soldier is awesome. Detana!! TwinBee is cool too, especially if you like Michiru Yamane and would like to hear her early work (and a lighthearted soundtrack rather than the moody, gothic Castlevania music).

    I'd like to add Blazing Lasers, R-Type, Time Cruise, Cratermaze, and Bomberman '93 to this list. Hell, really there are only a few HuCards that don't have great soundtracks. The pc-engine actually had a nice little sound chip for the time.
