for me its a hard battle between Test Drive II and Lotus 3:

now listening to both and not the PC Speaker version I think Lotus wins by a margin. :)

speaking of PC speaker, I remember listening to the PC Speaker version of AC/DC's Thunderstruck... awesomeness :)

Best song ever!!

I like this one a lot too, but I think it's mainly because I just loved the game.

Yes, it is me. No, I'm not back at racing (for now...)

One of my favourites is this main menu theme from the first Need for Speed:

The title of the song is "Power Slide", BTW  :)

How to forget my favourite intro: Test Drive 5!

Damn, my memory really is wonky these days  :D Another one, then: "Moon Over the Castle", theme of (the Japanese edition of) Gran Turismo:

And here is a cool live rendition of it by the band of the song's composer:

Do you remember Louts III?
Not such a great game, but oh the music... I found the original and true PC Speaker version. It will make your brain explode.

The game is still on my computer... :D

It's worth to listen these remixes:

Metal Machine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8V40SYGHQvE

It would be great to ask DaXX to make such a remix from Stunts theme.

I still prefer the PC-speaker version of the Lotus tunes. Maybe we could convert some new games with good music to PC speaker sound.
But we can't be quite sure.

I like Grand Prix Circuit theme music (The PC-DOS version), and the Test Drive theme music (The PC-DOS version also)
But the Stunts has a forever classic  8)
Hejj bicska, bicska, bicska csantavéri kisbicska!

This reminds me of 99 laps on Laguna Seca, and winning by a few dozens of seconds after two hours of race... :)
