Game Music Now - Top Gun: The Second Mission

“Mission Briefing” by Hidenori Maezawa, Yuichi Sakakura, and Harumi Ueko

I finally saw Top Gun recently, and while I can understand the cult the film’s built over the years, I wasn’t really a big fan of it. I’m also not big on the NES 3d-shooter based on it, particularly not the infamously tricky landing sequence. However, there was a decent sequel made for the game called The Second Mission, which is sorta like what Konami did with The Goonies II being a game-only sequel. It’s a more refined game and the landings are easier to pull off, so it’s worth a check, as are most of Konami’s later NES offerings.
