Which Mech Warrior Games have the cool Soundtrack?

Hi Everyone:
First time here. I have a question and I hope someone of you may know the answer.
I was digging through some old nostalgia DOS games that I have stored in a box in my basement. I suddenly found my old MechWarrior 2 CDs. It brought back great memories when I put them into my stereo system. Unfortunately I cannot play it since my system is a AMD X2 platform.
I was wondering are these the only two CDs that have the cool soundtrack or is there any additional MW2 games that have it? I have the original MechWarrior 2 game and the MW2: Ghost Bear Legacy.
Thanks

Welcome!
Well, Mercs actually does have a soundtrack too...
Also, you can play mech2 on any operating system your system would play it.

Really? You can? That's interesting! I was thinking about install Dosbox in Ubuntu to play it.

Yah, it works fine in DOSBOX for all the DOS versions.. check out the install guide in the FAQ section.
It may apply to windows but you should be able to get the general requirements off of the guide at the very least.
It does work though in linux a few people have done it already... npsbre may be able to help if you get stuck.

Hey a new member! Good to meet ya dr_jaymahdi
In my opinion, I think MW2 31cc is the best. Although there are a few tracks in GBL I thought were great too.
If you like the rock type genre, then you want to play Mercs. Have that soundtrack blasting through your ears.

Cool that it works for Dosbox. I'll give it a try one day.
The Mercenaries soundtrack was okay but I thought the Ghost Bear Legacy and the Original Mech Warrior Pentium version was better. I put it on my iPod yesterday and it brought back great memories driving the TimmberWolf, patrolling and securing the area. Surprisingly enough, it is still a "hot" legacy item on the Internet for people wanting to download the songs.

You mean the Mechwarrior 2 sound track is on iTunes? Cool.
