Eggie posted:Every Final Fantasy battle theme is the best theme in the series. But the bestest best one is Esper Battle from Final Fantasy XII (maybe). I never thought it was that great while playing the game... ... but then I got to hear Dissidia's version and it completely changed my perspective about it. Way better than the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuzXBLqOVZ4

If we're doing battle categories... Normal Battle: FFII Normal Boss Battle: FFIV Special Boss Battle: Battle With Seymour And for Final Bosses - "Battle For Freedom" from FFXII. I've beaten about half the games in the FF series and none of them have had a theme that got me as emotionally charged and pumped as this song. I also eat up the theme naming. The title of the song perfectly captures the entire theme of the game. The heroes, the villains, all they all wanted was freedom.

Well if we're doing battle themes that trounce anything in FF, Baten Kaitos has possibly the greatest Normal Battle theme I've ever heard. And then there's all the boss themes. And of course there's Xenogears and Xenosaga too but they're a bit more well-known than poor Baten Kaitos.

Man, I was really disappointed by this, because the title says it's "extended" so I thought there'd be something more to it than the in-game track, but it's really just looped for 10 minutes

Azure_Horizon posted:There IS no other Wild ARMs music as far as I'm concerned except this track. It defines the series. Oh, yeah, it's definitely a definitive track for the series, and it's great. However, I prefer the WA2 opening song because, despite my love for spaghetti western whistling themes, a juicy wailing trumpet center wrapped up by a delicious acoustic guitar and brass accoutrement just beats it hands down for me. Goddamn that series has great music.

Talking about best battles themes and venturing into non-RPG talk just makes me think the best battle theme has to be in a fighting game somewhere. I mean, I like Mitsuda and the rest but I think RPGs get a bit more praise than they should in the music department. Fighting game series like SNK's Fatal Fury or Samurai Shodown had legitimately fantastic music that I'd ay is easily comparable to most JRPG tunes I know.

They're cheap on psn right now buuuut they're 50hz, and if they still got black borders I'm gonna take a pass on them On default settings, there are still black borders on all four sides, but now there's a new option to resize the screen manually as you see fit, so you can just get rid of the top and bottom ones easily enough. It looks passable on mine, at the very least.

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned anything from the Ar Tonelico games yet. While they might be offensively bad at basically everything they do (full disclosure, I've only played the 3rd and I couldn't force myself to finish it, the earlier ones might be better), the music in them was incredible, especially as it was so non-traditional. Weird things like gamelan inspired boss themes. EDIT: This type of thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WI7MYAC-wU CottonWolf fucked around with this message at 15:14 on Jan 25, 2013 |

Ar Tonelico is the ultimate guilty pleasure. It's such an interesting and filled out world, but it's so pandering to the nerds.
