I actually enjoy 8-bit music quite a bit. Indeed, the compositions had to be strong because of the limitations at the time. I think that composing today could also be challenging though.. Just because there's more options doesn't necessarily mean that it'll be easier to create something that people want to hear. The 8-bit era had a sort of forced conformity (which could be challenging in its own way), but the freedom of modern technology could also make things difficult. Just a thought for discussion. =o
The games already mentioned (the ones I know about, anyway) in this thread have great music. Megaman games (Megaman 2, specifically) stand out to me, personally. Minibosses do some nice ROCKIN' renditions of the themes, but nothing really beats the originals. Kirby's Adventure also had some awesome catchy tunes.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
