Comment on It's kind of funny how many late 90s games had at least one drum and bass track

Movies from that time period also had a lot of drum and bass tracks.
It was a (relatively) new genre in the late 90s and it works well for energetic scenes and gameplay.
GTA2’s Funami FM had some drum and bass influenced tracks. The GTA2 intro movie used drum and bass in a way that’s very reminiscent of the time period:

GTA3’s MSX FM had some top notch drum and bass tracks from the legendary (by electronic music standards) Moving Shadow record label.
Unreal Tournament 99 had drum and bass tracks.

System Shock 2 also had great drum and bass music.
I wish this trend of using drum and bass tracks would become popular again, it’s a such good fit for intense/energetic scenes and gameplay.
