Why not bring back Drum n' Bass & Jungle back to Video Games

MSX FM and Rise FM are still some of my favorite Radio stations in gaming. GTA3 just hits different. GTA2 also had Funami FM and that hits hard. UT99 had an interstellar soundtrack too. I love this type of music. Got into it a long time ago but recently it's been some of the main stuff I listen to. I guess half of this is more Trance but you know. That 90's/2000's techno is awesome. Kinda like Metal in a way with how many sub genres there are. You can get a massive headache trying to classify some of those songs.
Here's some stuff you may like, taking in to account those Radio Stations & Unreal Tournament '99 Atmosphere Mix:

You got some knowledge on you lol. A lot of this stuff sounds gnarly. I like it. Thanks for the recommendations. Some of this stuff also reminds me of Jet Set Radio. That was another ost that I love.
 
I quite love the oldschool dnb / jungle era in videogames.

especially ps1 - n64 vibes.
 
Does that count as DnB?

I'll add these too

Yeah. Just look into the lore of Dnb. This is another reason why I created this Thread. To try and get more People into it.

crossniq+ -CROSSNIQ (Title) & VIVIDLOPE - 09 - Vividvoltaic, for example. There are many tracks that sound like this. The more Robotic, Techno or Electric Sound. Some may say Ape Escape, but there are others with the same Sounding, yet a different.

Rougher to Softer Sounding Examples:

We need Jungle I'm afraid...
This as well. I had brought up Jungle and DnB lore to user: Ikagura. Since this thread is also about enlightening others about these Genres. If you know more about Jungle, its start, or things pertaining to this Topic. Share them. It could help.
 
Is it not in video games anymore? I don't play games but from the ones I've seen recently, they're a good chunk of dnb tracks.
 
because the corpos and suits (same thing) havent caught up with whats cool yet, and never will. heres hoping they wont :3

It's not common anymore. Too bad too, some of the best games I've played have DnB tracks.
Personally I need a game full of Trance and Trance only. Shit goes hard.
