Hmm, does Clash on the Big Bridge (Final Fantasy V) count?


I don´t know Clash on the Big Bridge, but if it´s music that plays during a boss battle, then yeah it counts.

It's the song that plays during the battle with Gilgamesh shortly after you visit the second world. It plays during the short series of fights before the boss battle too, but since it's an easy fight (Gilgamesh always is) I figure those fights are just supposed to wear you down a bit. That song, and Battle with the Four Fiends, are the series' composers two favorite songs. I can see why!

I never played FFV, so I guess it counts if Gilgamesh is classified as a boss...is he?



I'll just leave this guy here

SaGa Frontier had awesome boss themes. Here is (2) of them.

 



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

lol Im not going to be able to pick a fave without hundreds of hours of listening. So just any song that plays as you fight Gilgamesh in any Final Fantasy, they are always awesome.

And Gameboy Pokemon games against Gym Leaders, Rivals, E4 and Champions etc. is always top notch



Wild ARMs 3 Crossfire Sequence. Not the one on the OST. This one is also Janus' theme, but it's one of, possibly the only track, that's in game but not on the four disc OST.  I know it's simple, but simple is good too.
