The mainquest itself lacked some depth (for example the antagonist is presented to you way to early), however the love for details is very apparent. It's a pity that traditional JRPGs are doomed, because everything must be extremely flashy and straight-forward now...Goodbye Xenogears, Xenosaga, FFX, FFVII (Original)...
@FiR3StAlK3R I dont know if it's because people are getting stupider or growing up and have less time to play games, or both. I hope J-RPG's aren't doomed. Heres to hoping.
Yeah the guitar solo I didn't know was there for quite some time, but I once let the game sit at the world map theme for a while when I was eating and I was very surprised when it came up lol.
Very good choice, Nobuo Uematsu is one of the best videogame music composers ever, this is one of the best jobs of him, since they leave square-enix, the Final Fantasy franchise isn't the same. The best part is on 1:40, amazing, but reminds me much the music of Dinasty Warriors Games XD XD XD.
Lost Oddysey is the only game right now that is interesting on the 360°C! To bad that the PS3 doesn't have that game! Nobuo Uematsu know his work! x) Good for MS that they had enough money XD
It's a real shame this game uses a point and click map for non-vehicle transportation and no music for when you are in a vehicle. This theme is a thing of beauty. I wish it was featured a bit more prominently.
This song manages to make choosing names of locations from a list incredibly epic and immersive.

I can't wait to get this, and an Xbox.
And play it on the Stereo.

That will be cool.

Too bad the world map was a menu so you'd never spend enough time there to hear all of this awesome song anyway.

This theme shakes my very soul, which is a VERY rare case - especially when it comes to VGM. Awesome flute.
... Ok, that was before the guitar part started. I still like it, though.

I thought this game's soundtrack felt very FF-like, I can't believe I just found out that it's because of that damn genius Uematsu.

When I started playing Lost Odyssey, I liked this song.
...
Then I heard the flute.
It just kills it for me, makes it sound like a bad version of a wild arms song.

Good choice. I think you should've put a couple of the boss themes from Lost Odyssey on your battle list, but to each his own.
