    Default De Ja Vu?

    Is it just me or do some of the songs sound famillier?

    the menu theme, just the piano riff in the backround that sonds spookily familier to the one used in a ffx promoting trailer. (the trailer in question can be found on the ffx bonus disk "beyond final fantasy")

    The chocobo theme was that of ff8.

    the "danger" theme played during your escape from the palace was also from ff8, i think when you were trying to run from the black widdow spider near the start of the game. it might have been a litle later though.

    there may have been more but i havent played all of the ffs so tell me íf there is more.

    to be honest, i dont mind the old songs, its a nice reminiscence, dont you agree?

    Yeah I agree, its all good though. I'm just waiting for them to replay the music during the Sin's attack on the "dream like" world that tidus lived in before he came to the real world.

    this is something that has been happening in the series since FF1 in the early 1980s...

    the title piece has actually been the title screen for pretty much every final fantasy game in the entire series (i think there was a shortened version in 8 and 10). then the music as you load your save game has been in every final fantasy title to date i think... usually in the ending, but appears randomly.

    The chocobo theme was that of ff8.
    and 2, and 3, and 4, and 5, and 6, and 7, and 9

    there's probably a lot more. i know when you defeat a boss, the music is the same as the music you usually get when winning a battle in most of the other games.

    The only tracks that Sakimoto recycled for this part are "Prelue", "Final Fantasy", "Victory Fanfare" and "Clash on the Big Bridge". The Chocobo Theme is actually a new remix, though the original melody is there, of course.

    which FF do you think has the best Chocobo Riddim?

    Yeah, the opening music is from FF4.
    EOFF needs a resurgence to it's former glory.

    I liked the XII Chocobo Theme! It sorta reminded me of greek music, because it's jumpy, sorta dissonant and a bit... 'drunk'

    The Salikawood music sounds very similar to Zanarkand Ruins in X-2. I think it's just composer signature, not a copy.
