Maybe not better, but there are some fucking fantastic tunes to be found.

They were garbage at game design so they had to make up for it with good graphics and music

I'm kind of bamboozled by the fact that Americans didn't participate in the game development and instead relied on Japs.

American developers stuck mostly to PC.
