Lots of topics have been posted on the best Neo Geo soundtracks, but what other soundtracks do you guys/gals like? Here's some of my personal faves:

Guilty Gear X AST (PS2/DC) - just awesome
Castlevania SOTN (PSX) - best soundtrack ever
F-Zero SNES - still one of the best soundtracks I ever heard
Gran Turismo 2 Japanese (PSX) - sorry but I like cheesy supermarket music... but I mainly like this for the intro music "Castle over the sky" <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

Quite a few others that I just can't think of at the minute too - what's everyone elses faves?

Actraiser Symphonic Suite by far...

I still havent heard a better arranged sound track to date. Then again, I'm a little bias. Actraiser is my favorite SNES game...

My favorite has always been the Snatcher soundtracks that Konami released... they do a great job telling the story, and deliver great music...

Sparkster (SNES): Very cool stuff, lots of rock, and you've gotta love the jazzy stuff in the music stage!

For those that don't know, Sparkster is the sequel to Rocket Knight Adventures on Genesis...it's easily one of my favorite side-scrollers.
