I played it on 386 with CM8330 sound blaster clone, and although I've heard the soundtrack many times later on, different versions too, it never sounded as good as it did back then. I wonder if it is just my imagination.

Wikipedia has a bit about the different versions (e.g. the Mega Drive version also had quite different unit graphics).

(rough as hell memory here), I'm almost certain there were two different versions due to the same reason myself!
