So much for Yasunori Mitsuda.... Seriously, they should have never let him go back on Xenosaga II for....bleh, Yuki Kajura. Now its like every game they do, they have to find someone else.
Not saying Yoko Shimomura is bad. She has actually done some damn fine work (such as Super Mario RPG and even the original Street Fighter II OST). But they had something amazing going with Yasunori Mitsuda and they never should have given him up.
