Forums - Gaming Discussion - FF XIII OST is OUT!!

lestatdark on 25 January 2010

Damn, 4 discs!

The entire OST is amongst the most brilliant works in S-E music so far, they have a very balanced amount of great tracks spread out through the entire set. I think that it is the most balanced FF OST i've heard so far.

While other FF's have had great classics and some masterpiece songs and themes, most of the tracks in them, while still good, don't entirely catch your attention.

This goes to show that S-E really knows what they are doing and that they aren't dependant on one single composer to get the same amount of quality ;)

This soundtrack is very solid and the song quality is consistent, but it just doesn't have those Classics/Masterpieces you got from FF's like Final Fantasy X. I like it a lot overall, goes very well with what goes on in the game, ESPECIALLY the boss fights, really epic boss fights in this game.



Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

And when I talk about "the classics" I mean Xenogears, Chrono Trigger, Cross and FF6,7 and 9.



Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.

I'm assuming the main FF theme that plays at the end of every FF game is there as well

HAHAHA! To me, this games Soundtrack doesn't stand a chance against any of those. But hey, thats just my opinion.

Actually, given a few songs in both FF6, FF7 and FF9 OST, they weren't actually well balanced OST's

I can agree with FF6 and FF7, but I thought 9's was VERY balanced. Final Fantasy 9's OST is among the best of the series for sure.

Now that I think about it, you're right. I just don't like the feeling of the OST in the third CD, especially when you get to Gaia >_<

It isn't, actually.

 

 



Looking forward to: FF Versus XIII / LBP2 / The Last Guardian / Yakuza 4 / ICO Collection
