[TOP 100] RPG Battle Themes #23 Ys III Wanderers from Ys

[Knickinator]

I've come to like this version a lot more than the 'orchestrated' version, mostly because of the lack of obnoxious electric guitars, which is an instrument heavily overused in today's RPG music.

[Humbleaction]

SNES>UNIVERSE

[Pharphain]

One of my favorite games for the SNES.

[XiledAssasin]

Fucking loved this theme, both original and orchestrated version.

[MrSlaide]

Oh yes and Chester was a douche.

[777NihonSloan]

Aaaaaaaa such good music. Nice to have lived to listen to this beautiful song again :D

[Ahluk1]

Sounds like the composer was pissed off at somebody, and decided to make this battle theme

[Rosvield]

Now, i know why i like listening metal, DnB... this music is so... gigantically epic.

[XoRandomGuyoX]

Ys has always had fun, pulse-pounding music. Good times! ^_^

[MrSlaide]

I died a lot on this boss until I managed to find the correct cheese for it.

[KiteNamikaze]

1:18 <3

[YariMatthews]

For it's time, this was a monster of a theme.

[iisaaaaa]

ting ting ting ting ting ting ting haha lol :D

[hypersonic64]

Sound like Megaman X4/X5.

[javolinico]

Yeah sounds like Megaman Music!! Fukin love it!

[RPGFan28]

Considering that this game was released in 1991 the sound track is all the more impressive, this even gives Rondo of Bloods sound track a run for its money.

One word comes to mind.

N-O-S-T-A-L-G-I-C... 'nuff said.

[Crazetex]

This really reminds me of Finish the Promise from TotAbyss.

[Revilo227]

ZOMFG :D

[SeppelSquirrel]

Alas, 2:00 - 2:20 is the only part that separates this from generic JRPG music.

[CronoDyne]

Because metal guitar riffs have never been featured in countless JRPGs

[EvilbadBunny]

@CronoDyne Actually no, not during its time, considering that this track happens to be some twenty two years old.

But whatever shall we do without ignorance.

[damaillard]

Adol Cristin's rulez ^^

[Zadok83]

I used to play this all the time when I was in the 5th grade.

[MrMooras]

hmmm...not bad 5/5 cool music

[KaiRaidenX]

My mind just imploded fromall the awesome in the air

[Halaitsame]

The Strongets Foe! One of the reasons the Ys series got my attention.

[gammastation]

For some reason, I don't know what it is, I think Book 1 and 2 had better music.

[InnocentSoul0283]

I'll admit that this song was an amazing theme for the final boss, but The Oath in Felghana had a better version of this song. The Oath in Felghana soundtrack was one of the few soundtracks that had been as good, if not better than the PC Engine version.

[gunarmdyne]

The PC Engine definitely has the best music out of all the original versions, but I still have nightmares about the voice acting.

[TheHurricane13]

Well just think about Baten Kaitos..... That voice acting was awesome....... ha ha......

[Galuldan]

i agree, just something seemed wrong half the time, think about their voices at night in a city, rofl might make u wanna start running

[SoraInuyashaAsh]

cool

[Demonfire94]

Man this is better than the snes one!!! I wish they would remake this game for Xbox 360 that would be pretty cool.

[tjtaber1988]

This one totally demolishes the SNES version. I think someone should do a playthrough of the SNES version with the audio of the TGCD with the SNES version's audio muted.

[uzgambit]

i never played the pc engine version so id thought id ask opinions which is better pc engine or turbografx 16 cd version.

[nile1love]

nice:) the pc engine destroys the super famicon version..anyone says im wrong can go FUCK THEM SELVES!

[bash619x]

this is ok

[arx7893]

Ryo Yonemitsu did really good job for arranging Ys music, especially for PC-Engine version of Ys3 and Ys4. Although for this, I personally prefer 'Kill or Cure'(JDk Band version of 'The Strongest Foe').

**Ditto to 'SNES version sucks'. Though I think Tonkinhouse did better job for making SNES version of Ys4.(Falcom did not make Ys4. They just did original plot line, characters, and BGMs)

[animegirlzzzzzzz]

Saying this Ys series knows how to make some kick-ass battle themes would be a severe understatement!

[PheonixBlade12]

Sounds like megaman music to be honest XD Nice though.

[AnimeQT]

totally agree with you lol

[IcedEarthaholic]

So much better than the SNES version if I say so myself.

[Testament5]

Have you heard the fully orchestrated version from the oath in felghana ost?

Sooooo Good.

[Underworld23]

Yeah , It's a really good version. However, I prefer this one ^^

[SamuraiMasenko]

ditto. awesome. with a period at the end.

[miemiexpxp]

Awesome.

[Bluetrunk]

..wow, you're right...

[Alastair]

Are you kidding? Adol is older than the very first fire emblem game by about 3 years. But now that you point it out, they do have some similarities.

[lordyshadow]

Yea because roy came first..... /ignorance

[Underworld23]

Pc-Engine version, my favorite

btw, Ys III gameplay was a little disappointing for me, I don't like that side-scrolling platform-action styled game...but it's a good game ^^

[Valis77]

Im Lping this game already COOL!

[Underworld23]

wow, that's a must see!!!

[Valis77]

Yeah it's not An epic Lp just to pay tribute to WandersFromYs a female Lper. My commentary wen bad after a few clips.*sighs*

[Valis77]

I understand! As long as the story is good im not complaining.
