Meh, I've heard his works and although he's pretty good he's not Uematsu. Uematsu remains in my opinion the best video game composer of all time.

The reviews for FFXII were ridiculously off base. 90% FF fans will tell you that game was horrible. It's not that it didn't so some things right. A camera that could finally be rotated, no more random world encounters, and the ability to move around in combat were all good things. However, a horrible cast of unmemorable characters, a main character without a spine and who had no control over the other characters, an absolutely unbelievably bad musical score, a ridiculously predictable and boring political plot, and a combat system that let you win the entire game without even picking up the controller make this a bad game.
