I can't help, but it is a great game.  I was giving it a go on the Minimig yesterday with the kids.

You're joking right? It's like night and day. It's CDDA digital CD quality studio mixed music.

Dont forget that the Xenon II music (and the subtitle Megablast) was taken from a mainstream music album by "Bomb the Base" called "Enter the Dragon", specifically a track called "Megablast. It was not created specially for this game.

The CDTV version contains 3 new special remixes of the Megablast track which are somewhat b@stardised from the original but still better than the David Whittaker Amiga MOD.

Best game ever. I remember playing it on the 8088XT (Commodore PC ii of course) and it was in CGA (Black and white at that stage). Memories.

Ok keep your hair on, I only asked.
Yes I was aware that the music was a remix of the Bomb the Bass track.

Rude!

I can't find it on any legal board like Back to the Roots, but you should be able to get it using p2p programs like Emule
