Man With the Machine Gun alone is overkill.

LO's soundtrack is really weak compared to Uematsu's other works IMO...

Haven't you only played three games with Uematsu soundtracks?

Or is it two?

Like...3. I haven't played the older FFs :( I'm waiting for them to come to VC. But I don't have to play a game to know if the music's good or not. There's plenty of games I haven't played but still really like the music to...

A truly great soundtrack draws power from context. You need to play a game in order to understand how well its soundtrack works.
