It was quite enjoyable to read the “tech page” you created...it allows me to have a far greater appreciation of what BINARY STAR actually does.

Now...how can I get the XZR (MSX) soundtrack pumping out of the heart of my PCE?

Thank you.

XZR 1 and 2 on MSX don't use the SCC, lol. 

They just use regular PSG tunes.  only Konami and a few homebrew games use the SCC.

XZR II came with a music CD on MSX though.  You could swap those tracks in!

It was a ”Christmas Wish”...

...in the same spirit of asking folks to create a SCD sequel to Blodia—I don’t think it will ever happen for PCE.

:)

BUT! I didn’t know about XZRII actually including a CD (I didn’t know that sort of thing even happened; keep in mind that I am pretty ignorant of nearly the entire MSX realm.)

Some other MSX games came with cassette tapes.

Ultima III and Hydlide III both did, and had cool rock redoodles of the music.


This one's the best.

This is intriguing... I had no idea.

*goes to finish listening to the rest of the song*

UPDATE: ok, so I expected most tracks on the cassette to be instrumentals, but this vocal track surprised me.

She sings the other songs too. It's pretty nice really.

Especially since the MSX/NES version of Ultima III is the best version of the game.
