Which FF game has the worst music overall?

[Everit]

Maybe because the game just came out about two weeks ago?

I, myself, like the Final Fantasy XII soundtrack, a lot. It has a lot of different elements that I've never heard Uematsu use, and it uses a large variety of instruments (even though I know they're synthesizers.).

No, I've been through the better part of the game and...yeah, nothing stands out. I just don't like the composer's style, and I never really have. There's not enough melody.

Also, anyone who doesn't like The Oath needs to be sent to orchestral music appreciation school

Anyone who thinks the in-game version of The Oath is played by a live orchestra needs to be sent to orchestral music appreciation school. It's fully synthesized (the version in FLWV album is orchestrated, though). Anyway, the Oath is played in various parts of the game, such as: (*SPOILERS!*)


1) Squall is rescued from his torture chamber at the beginning of Disc 2
2) Squall makes his speech to the students of Balamb Garden just before they ram Balamb Garden into Galbadia's Garden at the end of Disc 2 (this is an amazing scene!)
3) Squall and others break into the Sorceress Memorial to free Rinoa
4) Fujin and Raijin decide to quit working for Seifer at the end of Disc 3.

Alright where's this school... appearently I need to go to it.

A) It's synth rubah
B) Goldenboco, do you even have ears?

Seeing how the FLWV version is the only one I have with me, I wouldn't be talking about anything less

maybe that's why some of you guys don't like it. Seriously. Check it out. #11 http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-.../dp/B00003WGBZ

FFVII is the worst. Because i say so

I'm suprised many people do not like VIII, a great soundtrack in my opinon.

X was awesome
X-2, i like it but next to the other FF soundtracks it does not compare

I like you. You think just like me :P lol

Both games have good music.

Although the best music is in FFIX.

[Holy Lancer]

FF 10-2 has the worst. FF 12 didn't impress me. FF 9 and 10 have the best music though.

[Takara]

FFX's soundtrack didn't impress me much.

[Everit]

I can't wait for FF XIII Versus

check who's doing that music.

oh yeah :P

[Avarice-ness]

FFXII has good music.. if FFXII was an MMORPG. Saddly, unlike all the older FF games it seems that when an FF game is made on a console higher than a playstation, all the music gets pushed into the background. There are some points even in FFX when I don't even notice the music, I guess it's because... Well I'm not sure, but they need stop with the whole really almost silent background music, Music used to be dominate, now it seems to not be.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

That's an odd complaint. I constantly find myself getting absorbed in the music while playing FFXII.

I dunno, Maybe it's because of my playing Guild Wars but most of everything about FFXII, even the music, just doesn't feel right.

[Reine]

Personally, I found FFX-2's music mostly dreadful, next to that, FFVII's, and then FFV's. Im looking forward to hearing the FFVA versions of the soundtrack though

[chionos]

You let me off the hook by adding FFVII: DOC. I didn't want to have to choose between FFVIII and FFX-2.
I'm happy that neither VI nor IX have gotten any votes.

[Trance_Kuja]

FF X-2 has the worst.

Second is FF IX.

Final Fantasy IX has THE best music are you crazy or something! Worst is X-2, but i like the vocal songs. Best Tracks from all final fantasy games are: Memory of the wind (main theme of ff3), Melodies of Life (main theme of ff9), One winged angel (last boss fight music well second to last), Prelude (If you do not know this you are not a final fantasy fan) and Dark Messenger (second to last boss fight in ff9 and my favourite track).

[Simen]

FFX's soundtrack didn't impress me much.

Why not? I LOVE the music from that game! Very nice songs.
You gotta love songs like "Path of Repentance", "To Zanarkand",
"Lulu's Theme", "Sight of Spira", "Someday the dream will end", etc.




As for the thread, I've only played VI, VII, IX, X and X-2, but I voted for FF 10-2. That one will win!
