| Alic0004 said: Yeah, I can't believe I forgot about Chrono Cross. That opening theme is definitely amazing. The thing is, it's clearly imitative of the music from Chrono Trigger. I remember when I first heard the opening theme from it, and thought "wow, that's something I've never heard before -- they just outdid Chrono Trigger at its own music." The individual character themes aren't as consistently good though, and don't manage to give the game the same kind of emotional clarity and structure that Chrono Trigger achieves. |
True, but the bulk of the soundtrack is awesome, and all of it just sounds so...awesome, even when the tune is mediocre, that it usually makes up for it. I actually kind of like one nod to CT's soundtrack, where they work in elements of the CT main theme in the main overworld's theme...but in a completely different, Carribeanish style.
