Plus people are saying the music was better on the Genesis, not that MK2 was better on Genesis than Snes. I think most can agree that overall the Snes port was better. The Saturn was a complete flop, only installed about 10 million units. Oh and ClaviusMusic was referring to the Snes not having comparable hardware to the arcade and of course it didn't. 200 buck system vs a 2000 dollar machine. The Snes had a soundchip with very little ram, something like 24 kb. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong. It was a reference to the Snes not being able to replicate the music, that's it.

The best GEMS soundtrack for me is comix zone, beacuse it pushes the limit of that sound driver quite good.
