My Sega influenced pop music

I know this is completely off-topic and potentially very spammy of me, but I figured you guys might get a kick out of this

Me and a friend have been working on a few pieces of music recently, and we based this particular one on a couple of our favourite ever Sega video games of the 90s. See if you can guess which ones. The first is incredibly easy, but the second is very well hidden. Enjoy!

Tonight (SoundCloud Link)

Well, this forum section doesn't have a fixed topic, so you can't really be off it. And I love guessing for game music, so thanks for that!

I listened to your track, heard some familiar notes, but I may have to try a few hundred times more before I can name both games. Well hidden indeed.

Thanks for taking a listen

Well, the main riff is heavily influenced by the original 1995 Sega Rally arcade game, but perhaps that isn't that mainstream. The second is even more well-hidden, but there are a number of drum samples taken from Streets of Rage which are mixed in with modern sounds to give a unique edge.

Maybe next time we can make it super obvious

Ah, but the arcade version of Sega Rally 1995 has different music than the Saturn version. Does that work as an excuse?
