Even today, in 2020, I'm amazed at how good the music sounds in those 80s and 90s arcade games that used FM chips like the YM2151. Marble Madness, 720, Pack Rat in particular. Not just a testament to FM synthesis, but to the composers and sound programmers of the day!
Definitely a great point. One of my favorite other examples is the Dune soundtrack[1]. This example uses the AdLib gold which uses the OPL3/YMF262, I believe.
