What music genre is

I want to say it's ambient house. It reminds me a lot of "Halcyon + On + On" by Orbital, which might be the most popular song in the whole genre.
 
Was thinking this at first but the Parasite Eve track doesn't really have that fast breakbeat that is characteristic of DnB. I agree with what others have said, that the drums are more house-y.
For me its the gliding/ethereal sounding synthpads. Atmospheric DnB was so popular in video games during that late 90's gaming era that there has to be some connection to it going on.
 
This stuff reminds me of the Panzer Dragoons
Orta was where I started
Yeah, i really think that games and movies were heavily influenced by those earlier acts of IDM(everyone hates this term) and ambient techno in general. I mean, in the 90's and 2000's techno was the equivalent of 2010's Dubstep in terms of popularity. I can't manage to spot any actual electronic music trends in more recent media tho, i feel like maybe EDM is slightly forgotten nowadays
 
Hmm I must be an extant remnant of a musical dinossaur, haha.
 
The first track is pretty much Atmospheric DnB.
This sounds good but maybe with less drum in what I've heard.

This sounds close, just with a bit more piano.

Sounds like some early soft IDM/Experimental techno tracks like The Future Sound of London or some tracks in the Warp Artificial Intelligence album
Thanks! I have some F-zero GX vibe going in some tracks as well (well, the more mellow ones like Feather).

I've only played the first on PC, Saturn and the remake but I'll really do the sequels now that I've heard this.

i haven't played Zwei, but getting to Orta is definitely worth it. The Dragon has light, mid and heavy transformations that you upgrade through the stages by collecting Genes floating around the levels. It adds great flavor to an already enjoyable series.
