Besides Cruis'n (and to a lesser extent Pilotwings) every game there was very good. And Sin and Punishment does more than add indy cred - it was an amazing game in its own right.
you'd realize that, aside from a few token licenses, the vast majority of the music is created either in-house by Konami's musicians (many of whom are incredibly talented), or is done specifically for the game by freelancers. On top of that, it's not the kind of music you're going to hear on MTV anyway. I would agree that DDR Extreme does not belong on that list, but that's more due to Konami picking bad songs out of its library for that specific release (hands down the worst US DDR) than it being generic MTV fare.
I'm hoping Konami doesn't squander the US release of Beatmania (where the music ranges from mainstream to experimental and back again) so hopefully the music game genre starts getting more respect on both counts, because there really is some amazing music in these games.
The Oracle games have overlapping words - they are described in the titles of the games. Since Seasons has 4 parallel worlds (guess what they are), I'd say it takes the cake.

Please give to me by some means.
Tangentially, buy Beatmania.
