I love both the MT-32 and CMS versions of Ultima VI's soundtrack, particularly Todd Porter's contributions....

I was extremely late to the party with Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, never having played any of them until 2016 or so.

I have a problem with nostalgia. I'm addicted to it, but it's never enough....
