Dissdia 012 Final Fantasy Music - "Saber's Edge ~Arrange~" from Final Fantasy XIII Extended

[Sultz487]

2:00 - 2:22 and 4:43 - 5:01 <--- Best parts of the whole thing in my opinion.

[PintheDog]

Nothing really sounds different except for the addition of more percussion.

[CheesyGranola]

@PintheDog It's the same as the original until 1:09.

[PintheDog]

@CheesyGranola Basically what I said. Sounds the same except that they added more percussion beyond that point.

[Dasten]

Vaan looks like he is sniffing shit on his finger.

[chaosblade450]

This arrangement  totally needs to be in 13-2 but I guess I'm to late. Crap!

[Verkili]

@chaosblade450 Actually, it is in XIII-2, but it only plays in a very select few boss battles.

[YohSou]

This reminds me of the bowser stage in Mario 64

[Sion51]

1 of the best ff boss battle themes ever....just saying seriously EPIC!

[RicardoSForever]

Love this arranged version more than the original.

[PrettyBoyXV]

can sum1 phrase me on this. but dosent squall and lightning have the same story line, attitude and progress? hahaha ^^

[PrettyBoyXV]

@PrettyBoyXV progress in the story i mean

[Badham94]

@PrettyBoyXV I always saw Lightning as female Squall, despite people calling her female Cloud, she always seemed much more like Squall to me (Anti-social at the start, a bit of a dick to everyone but is changed by her companions and becomes strong, honourable and selflessly defends everyone. Also the fact that they both, in some sense, lost their 'Sis')

[CrimsonVermillioneye]

@Badham94 Cloud also started anti-social at the start was a bit of a dick to everyone. Then he starts thinking he was never real and finally goes into a vegetable start before figuring out who he is again.

[Sultz487]

@CrimsonVermillioneye Every word this person has spoken is very much the truth. :3

[TheFinal360]

Thumbs up if you think Lightning is the best character ever!

[galufthebest]

VAAN > LAGUNA > LIGHTNING > TIFA > KAIN

[apprentice10001]

Man squall will pwn lightning lil ass but lightning still cool ^•^

[Louistouti1090]

Vaan = Hope not snow

[Vanitas767]

WERE the HELL is Yuna in the picture?? O_O

[Tokoza2]

Lightning kicks ass in so many ways. Best FF female to me.

[ChidoriSnake]

@Tokoza2 Dude, she's the best FF female to EVERYONE!!

[twilightbabe143]

this is so good they barely changed it <3 LOOOOOOOOOVE!!!!!! by 1:10 it's inexpressable *-*

[MasterShake951]

umm...did anyone else notice that "Dissidia" is misspelled?

[SPS148669]

@MasterShake951

Grammar Nazi!

[Sultz487]

@SPS148669 urmom goes to college.

[Yuna771000]

I like this song

[thespiritmage]

Whenever I look at this picture, I want to punch Vaan in his face so that he'd be REALLY digging for gold - into his brain.

[darnell16player]

@thespiritmage Don't go hating on Vaan until you play this game, he's fuckin good to use even though people consider where he came as a minor role

[TheJohnywalker21]

and Squall remains THE REAL Gunblade fighter

[machinimamarlon]

@TheJohnywalker21 Totally agree...

[bulletfiretrain]

@TheJohnywalker21 and Lightning remains THE ONLY Female swordsman.

UNBEARABLE.

[Emofreezer]

@bulletfiretrain Terra has a sword. WHAT NOW?!

[thaneros]

@TheJohnywalker21 Lightning would make Squall here bitch

[Tokoza2]

@thaneros

Agreed

[ChidoriSnake]

@thaneros i actually agree with Johnnywalker. Squall is still the best gunblade fighter ever.

[Leonknight23]

@ChidoriSnake I dont think squall and lightning will fight. if they met then they would probably hang out together cuz both have the same personalities, talk about their problems then console each other. fall in love eventually, get married, have intimate smex, then have a cute kid who gets trained in using the gunblade by both her parents

[ChidoriSnake]

@Leonknight23 dude...thank you! you just gave a fanfic idea! P.S. If only that truly happened. :(

[333vanille]

@TheJohnywalker21 Squall the real gunblade fighter? best joke ever. Lightning is superior to him in all ways.

[sec0ndevolution]

@333vanille Lightning has bigger balls.... literally. :P

[NTUNKNOWN]

@333vanille Dream on, Squall pwns Lightning!

[DarkCrescendo]

@NTUNKNOWN No he doesn't.

[SergioSource]

@DarkCrescendo yup, Squall gets his strength from his GFs, Lightning is a fkn l'Cie :>

[sorrikkai7]

@SergioSource not anymore

and her powers don't come from being a l'Cie. ff xiii-2 proves that

[SergioSource]

@sorrikkai7 well that I dont know I havent played it yet -.- tnx for the spoiler

[sorrikkai7]

@SergioSource oh come on, you think she is going to stay a l'Cie forever? I didn't say something about how the story goes on. you can keep on enjoying your game don't worry

[SergioSource]

@sorrikkai7 Well at the end of 13 we never really see if she lost her brand, plus Etro is sister of Lindzei, creator of fal'Cie, of course she can bless Lightning with such powers

[sombersin]

@TheJohnywalker21 Time for your lesson, Schoolboy.

[TheHikariOne]

@TheJohnywalker21 Agreed. Haven't played it in a while, but Squall was my main man through most of it all (Lightning or Cecil tied for second). I even downed that illegal-level Feral Chaos with him alone.

[azuwazu03]

Vaan: Laguna, you havent bathe lately do you?

[RoddickFarrence589]

@azuwazu03

Tifa: Vaan, you stink.

[cdarkheartzero]

Final Fantasy soundtracks are usually fantastic, but this is probably one of my favorite songs. Just sayin....

[TMSapphiroN]

Even if it's possibly the most minor detail in the whole remix, the bass drum from 1:10 is 1:25 absolutely phenomenal! :D Love banging my head there. ^^

[doublejg]

FFXIII is different than other Final Fantasies, but I enjoyed it quite a bit, that's for damn sure.

[Redmar137]

this is exact the same as in FFXIII lol (( LOVE THIS))

[DJProductions1001]

@Redmar137 No it's not. Note the drums in the background in the second part.

[A9ron34]

me like this :D

[zoby1996]

where's yuna in the picture?...

[gridergirl]

i luv parts 1:42 and 4:22! XD

[IRatchetI]

Anyone else gradually turn up there speakers at 0:31 until they hit 0:42 and then blast out the music? Cos i know i sure as hell do! :D

[Angrypanties99]

@IRatchetI I remember I unleashed Yuna's exburst at like 0:39 and started doing her sending dance at 0:42... oh man... it was just perfect... @_@

[KrispyOverlord]

How ironicly that the music from a small consle is far more superior than the music on the big one

[emorocklover]

@KrispyOverlord True, but it doesn't play as high quality, even using the same headphones, my PS3 sounds much smoother.

[KrispyOverlord]

What tha?

[mouakyle17]

its so good they only changed it slightly 0.o

[ZiplineJon]

Man, all it does is add a new percussion track on the second verse, but it sounds so much better this way.

[915nabi]

it sucks donkey doo doo.

[rkaylott]

ok this is just to epic so its not extended PLZ EXTENDED THIS SOME ONE!!!!!

[BeastoFrancisco]

MUCH better than the version from FFXIII.

[SetsunaAndKonoka14]

This is actually not an arrange its the original

[finalformsonic]

@SetsunaAndKonoka14 Did you watch the whole vid? The 2nd half is different.

[nhl2312]

@SetsunaAndKonoka14 Well at first I thought so too, but then you can notice the difference at the part near the end.

[wareye12]

Haven't done much to this remix, lowered the bass volume on the snare drums are higher...

[BrianMNDBPH]

I extended Blinded by Light ~arrange~ to 30 minutes on my channel, but I'm not extending music over 15 minutes now, unless I get a special request from a friend!

[BrianMNDBPH]

Vaan is picking his nose!

[UltimateTibu]

@BrianMNDBPH No he's not. If you look close enough, he's rubbing his finger across his nose. It's popular among video game and anime characters. I've seen Gotenks do it too o.o

[RCfan234]

Dude this song makes my day all better

[jdc421]

"Enjoy the view!" *sparkly death rains down*

[CrimsonVermillioneye]

1:45 to 2:40 Awesome drums.

[Campene2]

2:03 till 2:40 is just pure EPICNESS!!!

[Campene2]

This is so eargasm

[bradleypianoman]

I'm really feeling this! Some of these spots sound like they need some quantizing though...

[Palidor]

THUNDAGAAAAA~

[ElegeantFencer]

You forgot to put Yuna in this picture. :(

[1aundulxaldin]

It hit me.

Tifa fills in for Snow.

Vaan fills in for Hope.

Kain fills in for Fang.

Laguna fills in for Sazh.

Yuna fills in for Vanille. (Weird. I mean they don't EXACTLY share the same power.)

Lightning simply reprises her role as the starting one-dimensional leader of a ragtag bunch of people fighting against a nigh invincible threat they have little chance of winning against.

[ElegeantFencer]

@1aundulxaldin Not a bad observation. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the writers' intentions.

[undead50]

@1aundulxaldin Holyy snap you are totally right

Tifa/Snow-hand to hand combat

Vaan/Hope-don't see the comparisson other than the fact they have the same hairstyle

Kain/Fang-both are badass and use spears plus her ultimate weapon is Kains

Laguna/Sazh-both use firearms and provide comic relief

Yuna/Vanille both use rods for weapons and are kind of emotional

[JohnRosarioCuevas]

@undead50 please, never compare vanille to yuna... lol

[undead50]

@JohnRosarioCuevas too late lol

[Xandersama]

@1aundulxaldin and they all died [supposedly] in the war.

[bulletfiretrain]

@1aundulxaldin

I don't think Vaan even fits in the role for Hope. I am not scolding you...

Somehow I think Vanille sounds like Rikku, the lively type... but sadly she isn't in DDFF.

Maybe somehow Lightning scared her away.

[daahellraiza]

@1aundulxaldin honestly man.....vaans not THAT bad

[ListenSilently]

@1aundulxaldin Vaan = Snow? Nope

[ChangedFigure]

Okay.. I'm not saying I don't like Lightning.. It's just that her character type is so overused in the FF series. Like theres a dozen of these "Badass, cool line having, stay to themselves and shuts everyone else off" kind of characters.

[DJProductions1001]

@ChangedFigure You mean like Cloud, and Squall?

[ChangedFigure]

@DJProductions1001 Yes, exactly. Once again, I'm not saying I don't like them. It's just that when you overuse a character type, it gets old quick. Especially in a long running series like Final Fantasy.

[blackjaguar324]

I dont hear a difference between the two versions....

[shinnuXIII]

@blackjaguar324

from 1:09-2:40, there is extra drum beats. hear the orginal then hear this one again. this will feel more action-packed and fast paced.

[jzc11024]

GO PIANO!!!!!!!!!

[sickoffindinganame]

i REALLY need toget this game...but all my spending money is on paypal....shit.

[Breloom267]

That's how I play piano @ 0:28

[MrWerehog23]

Battle Damaged Sora and Edward Elric VS An Army of Soldiers/State Alchemists, a herd of Behemoths, Maleficent's Dragon Form, and Rena, Mion, and Shion from Higurashi. Saber's Edge would fit that battle perfectly since the music's so epic!!

[88jInsight]

its a damn shame this game wasnt put on a console with proper online play and a bigger char list and bigger maps. the dissidia team who are responsible for star ocean, kingdom hearts, and the coming versus xiii are squares saving grace.

[TheBlackOni1]

this isnt a remix

[CheesyGranola]

Yuna: Why am I not in the picture? D:

[nekuxshiki7]

@CheesyGranola neve noticed yuna wasn't there

[NillaVision]

@CheesyGranola Me: Because Yuna, you're in every other game that has ever existed and the others deserve a chance!

[CheesyGranola]

@NillaVision Tifa: *waves*

[RoddickFarrence589]

@CheesyGranola =( Kick off Vaan and throw Yuna in ! I don't believe Vaan is better than Yuna ! >:( NOW!

[CheesyGranola]

@RoddickFarrence589 How dare you blaspheme against Vaan? >_>

[RoddickFarrence589]

@CheesyGranola Its not that I hate Vaan... its just that Yuna was decided so later when the game was publish.

[R4KID]

@CheesyGranola I agree but shes not a warrior ;) shes just a slag looking for a gay guy thats trying to kill his own father? If im not mistaken

[MirroRMimi]

First time I listened to this song in game I was in my third rematch playing Lightning vs Cloud... It gave me the strength to finally win >:D

[Stefan00b]

still so sad that vincent isn't in this gameeee QQ :P

[SuperDeadpuddle]

They treated her like a rat! ....Oh, right. :)

[radleyXIII]

Saber's Edge is one of the most engaging Battle Tracks I've heard which sounds epic and elegant at the same time. I never played FFXIII but I sure can see her fighting just like in Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy with rose petals flying through the air. =D

[SuperDeadpuddle]

I don't care what anyone says about the music in FInal Fantasy XIII. It gets you hyped as hell for battle, is moody when it needs to be, and makes running down a goddam hallway for 20 hours worth it just to hear the music.

[ReevesLP]

having Raines in Dissidia would make two Cids in the game then... Cid overload!

[Scaltt]

I really wish they put another FF13 character in this game. They should have put Cid Raines in this and have his special be him turning into his cieth form

[WarteryMind]

@Scaltt I agree. Cid was the only "villain" (i always felt sorry for him) that actually had any form of connection to the party members. All the others were random "lets kill EVERYONE" people.

Sorta like Kefka, but less funny and epic. And less successful.

[Scaltt]

@WarteryMind lol yeah exactly. And I wouldn't put in Primarch Dysley because he's an old man who turns into Barthandelus. I think Yaag Rosch would've worked successfully in this game too.

[DenzelFenrir]

Actually, I would like Cid Raines to be in the villain role for FFXIII. His EX Mode would probably be his half-Cieth form, which would look awesome.

Still, only one character from FFXIII was a little disappointing.

[OrpheusZero]

Kuja:So empheral,Lightning.

Lightning:Oh I'll show you how Lightning Strikes!!

Kain: Sorry,I've no choice.

Lightning:Kain! What're you doing!?

WoL:Toss aside your blade and say good night.

Lightning:No thanks, it's not my bed time!

Garland:I will grant you true and utter ahnihilation.

Lightning:Bring it on! I don't need a second chance!

[kirishima69]

@OrpheusZero Agreed. But Nascent Requiem plays in the Garland fight instead of Saber's Edge -arranged-. Just saying.

[RoddickFarrence589]

@OrpheusZero NO!!! It's "Forgive me, I have no choice." for Kain!!!

[OrpheusZero]

@RoddickFarrence589 Actually, it's "Forgive me, I've no choice." sorry about that. It's I've because of the time period he is supposively in.

[RoddickFarrence589]

@OrpheusZero =.='' Sorry about that, I'm concetrating on CYCLE 000 so I haven't played cycle 012 for long time XD

[OrpheusZero]

@RoddickFarrence589 Good Luck on Feral Chaos, he is something if you know what I mean. xD

[RoddickFarrence589]

@OrpheusZero Thanks for ur concern DX

[SuperLink9155]

2:00 - 2:40 kills me *p*

[GhostLightning195]

these tracks are way longer than the ones on the actual OST. I like this.

[daniel81991]

it sounds like...2 songs are playing at the same time...

[sombersin]

Did anyone else get Prologus? I'm loving playing as Lightning, her like battle comments are kinda weird though. She'll say like "This is going to sting!" like how Sahz would.

[happybirthdayhomie]

wow that drum beat completely threw me off lol

[Sadisticinstinct]

*Paradigm shift* oops I got solidarity instead of Mystic Tower *loses 500 hp* :o, heh thats what this song speaks to me

[CookiesNCreamyum]

Oh yes! I knew this song had potential! It lacked something in-game, which made it feel very empty. They fixed the emptiness. It just seemed like it kept building but never got anywhere.

In simple words, they forgot to add the 'boom' affect.

[Dasten]

@CookiesNCreamyum Nicely summed up. The added drums definitely bring it to a climax. It's potential as a boss tune has been fully realised!

[CookiesNCreamyum]

@Dasten Yeah, this is now one of my favorites. I can definately say this is a boss theme!

[2455Phoenix]

Nice theme

[MackyykcaM]

They should've included Barthandalus in DIssidia 012 so Lightning has someone to oppose to.

[rejectofmisery]

@MackyykcaM the question would be how galenth deysly would fight; i played ff13, and know the mask that barthandelus wears

[VangeistXIII]

@rejectofmisery He'd most likely fight in his Dysley form, using barriers and blasts and then in his Ex Mode he'd gain armour and a mask similar to that of Barthandelus

[rejectofmisery]

@VangeistXIII heheheheheh, pulling an ExDeath

[VangeistXIII]

@rejectofmisery Yeah, pretty much the idea I had, though his barriers would just be for defence, no turtle spamming here.

[NiCeNuKNaN]

Umm.. man...

Nobou-san didn't compose this theme

'cuz he did not compose any song in FFXIII

but he composed all theme in FFXIV

[96Nathan96]

it would be cool if Vanille was in this, her Yuna, and Terra would kill everyone.

2nd team: Tifa, Lightning, Shantotto.

[bmw05model]

This really sounds like just drum beats overlaid on the normal version of Saber's Edge. Not really impressed.

[threeedots]

the piano :)))

[kirishima69]

How weird. The first part of this BGM it sounds like the original version, but at the second part, it's entirely arranged in drum beats.

[IIfoxysanII]

@kirishima69 i think thats the thing i hate the most. i wish that all of it was in drum beats. i personaly think it sounds better and more dissdia like

[kirishima69]

@IIfoxysanII Yeah... and the random sound effect before the second part... sounds disturbing. T.T

[hikaruhatake1]

@kirishima69 But hey...it makes it more intense when you got into EX Burst

[finstrike7]

@kirishima69 Yeah that's true. At first I was going to say that this was the same but I compared both and yes, this one has drum beats. They only added in the drum beats to help with the awesome epicness of this boss theme as well as the Dissidia feel by making it more faced-paced for the awesome action that happens onscreen, ya know? So yeah, it's almost entirely original except for the drum beats, but it works. And I gotta say, that piano is EPIC!!!!!!!!!!11 XD

[kirishima69]

@finstrike7 Noticed the same thing too. One of my new fave BGMs in 012.

[finstrike7]

@kirishima69 Hell yeah. It works for Lightning.

[kirishima69]

@finstrike7 It really does. ^^

[ReevesLP]

@kirishima69 plus the drum beats are reminiscent to Defiers of fate too.

[kirishima69]

@ReevesLP Never heard that track yet.

[ElegeantFencer]

@kirishima69 Wel it's an arranged version especially made for Dissidia 012.

[grenadier42]

@kirishima69

Mistimed drum beats, at that!

[ShadowStarMila]

OMG SABERS EDGE MADE IT IN!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!! now just add will to fight and desperate struggle and ill be one happy camper =^_^=

(wait... this isnt a remix tho D: its exactly the same... NOOOOOOO)

[spirasdeath]

how does blinded by light be remixed and this one not at all, if your going to remix one might as well remix them all.
