    Default Amazing soundtrack

    Just thought I'd say that, it's my 2nd favourite after XII, IX comes third. Anyone agrees this kicks arse?

    I bitch about the game a lot, mainly for the lack of story and weak characters, but it is still the best of the series out there.

    Not really. There are a few decent tracks in there but the more prominent ones that you'll be listening to for the majority of the game (battle theme, world map, most of the location music etc) are fairly repetitive and monotonous.

    Probably one of my least favorite soundtracks, behind FFV and FFXII.

    Are you kidding? Who doesnt love "Clash on the big bridge" from FFV? its an epic! I also really like the battle theme... And I agree FFVIII has awesome soundtrack, specially boss music and of course, the last ultimecia form

    Oh, isn't that called The Extreme? If so, I so totally <3 that one, one of my top 3 faves, along with Man with a Machine Gun and Balamb Garden.

    FFXIV Character

    Mirage Askai (Sargatanas)

    A Premonition, The Extreme, The Legendary Beast, and Maybe I'm a Lion are all great. Then there's Find your way, Liberi Fatali, Junction, the Lunatic Pandora music (forgot the name), the battle and boss themes are also good, imo.

    Yeah, I agree with this.

    My favourite FFVIII song is probably Unrest, although I've yet to see anyone else who likes it. I'm also fond of the Ultimecia's Castle music.

    One half-decent theme song does not a good soundtrack make.

    Which is kind of my point with the FFVIII soundtrack as well.

    The Landing and Premonition are my favorite music pieces in the game. I also like the Ending Theme, not to mention The Extreme!

    FF8 has great music, much better than 12's. I don't don't know what SE was thinking when they had someone other than Nobuo Uematsu do the music. Fools.

    Some of the music encaptivates the atmosphere tremendously well (eg when Balamb is under seige). My favourite soundtrack out of all the FF's I've played
    ...Geddit?

    I have yet to find anyone who likes Drifting as much as I.

    Also mcuh love for Force Your Way, Blue Fields, The Man With the Machine Gun, the ragnarok flight theme, Shuffle or Boogie, Lunatic Pandora, the final boss themeS and Breezy!

    Nobuo sort out left and is more free-lance-y now I think. Also, practically the entire game is done by different staff (the same people who made Tactics, as if it wasn't obvious)

    A few tracks are good, but I found the rest of the soundtrack to be boring. Blue Fields comes to mind.
