FFX and FFVIII have the most memorable soundtracks, imo, with FFX coming out on top.

I always leveled my characters up at the Zanarkand Ruins just so I could hear this song:



You guys are a real bunch of comedians putting all these recent games as having "the best JRPG music", except cactus. Expand your horizons, people! There is better music than what is on Playstation 1 and 2 games!



Im pretty sure most games before the ps1, and in the ps1 era, had crappy music, they didnt care a lot about that.

Thats what I think, I find ps2 games to have better music in general, there are exceptions, but the lack of good sound quality doesnt help the older systems, the best FF7 song versions are from the later spin offs and AC, the first game gave the base, which was great, but it was perfected later.

Lack of Chrono Cross and Trigger on your list automatically invalidates it.

Didn't like Chrono Trigger's music that much.

 



That battle theme from Lunar 1 is from the original game(Sega CD version), not the PS1 remake. Why its on the soundtrack CD is something I'm still wondering. I haven't played the original one but I sure don't remember hearing that one in PS1 version.
