Thread: Which FF game has the worst music overall?

  1. #1

    Default Which FF game has the worst music overall?

    This is the follow-up to my thread "Which FF Game has Your Favourite Music?" Now you are asked the opposite... which game has the worst music overall? The poll has the same list as last time; I've only added one which I was mentioned as a suggestion after I had completed the last poll, Dirge of Cerebus.

    This is, of course, very difficult to choose. I haven't played some of the later FFs, but I have sampled some of the music I missed through downloads. Overall I think FF 10-2 had the worst.

    X-2.

    The whole soundtrack contains a total of three good songs.

    FFVIII by far. It wouldn't have been any more boring if they'd just set the entire game to a single continuous droning noise.

    But it has 2-3 songs that really stand out.

    It sucks. There isn't a single good song. Actually there are two. And Maybe I'm a Lion isn't one of them.

    FF8 Soundtrack = Great

    Imo, the number of catchy songs is greater than most ff soundtracks.

    Edit: Mr. Nosebleed, thats just your opinion. Put a "I think it.../Imo" in the sentence.

    The worst = FF 10-2.

    Raebus: That's just your opinion. Put an "I think it... / IMHO" in the sentence. I kind of liked FFX-2's soundtrack since the music worked pretty well in the game, and I once counted the amount of songs I considered either good or excellent, and FFX-2 had more of them than FFX did, even though FFX-2 soundtrack has a lot less songs than FFX's.

    As for my least favorite FF soundtrack, I can't say FF: MQ, FFTA, FFCC or FFVII DoC since I haven't played those games much, if at all (although I have the soundtrack for DoC). It's a tough choice between FFII and FFX since I think some of the songs in FFX are better than the ones in FFII, but I also think FFX has more sub-par songs than FFII. If we're including FFII Origins (or DoS) vs. FFX soundtrack, I think FFII has the better soundtrack. Otherwise, FFX soundtrack is better, IMHO.

    Two things:
    1) I would rather have my balls removed than say IMHO
    2) It's a forum, the only thing people say is their opinion, but apparently we're all wrong. I blame The Staff for not telling us to use "I think" before posting (I think).

    Not counting spin-offs and sequels: FFVIII

    Counting spin-offs and sequels: FFVIII and FFX-2

    I like FFVIII's soundtrack a lot more than X-2's to be honest, but since Uematsu wasn't involved on that one, I wasn't surprised at the lack of quality tunes. On the other hand, Uematsu managed to follow up FFVI and VII with the tripe in FFVIII, and although there are some excellent songs and some good ones, most are well below the standard Uematsu set in the past, and immediately after in FFIX. I can forgive him for only having that one real stumble in the series history, but I can't forgive the soundtrack itself. I've heard more interesting elevator music in a lot of cases.
