  • This is why I'm ashamed to be a FF fan.You jerks should stop trying to put Xenosaga down! Xenosaga is a great series but it's highly underrated! Hell, the first game was more popular than Final Fantasy back when it first came out. You wanted One Winged Angel as #1? FF7 is good but it's fucking overrated! I bet those who are complaining never played Xenosaga before considering how underrated it is. If you play ALL 3 games especially the last one, it WILL make you cry like you never cried before.

  • A joy to listen to.

  • good list

  • I was expecting to see "The dark messenger", Kuja's final battle from FF IX. Not as number one of course but at least on the top 50.

    Anyways, awesome list and I cant imagine all the work and efford you put into it.

    +1 to you and all RPG fans

  • u did an amzing job thaks man

  • Seymour battle from FFX was better than this

  • @gxrcix525 Which Seymour battle because there was like 4 I think.

  • All Xenosaga III had going for it was the music because the story = dried cracked poop weighing in at under 2 Courics.

  • No Tales the Abyss... awkay...

  • hmm never surrender from vp2 shouldve made it to like top 10

  • This game was really bad, but the music is really good as usual.

  • Fuck...Yes.

    This song is everything a final boss theme should be. It has those small moments like 1:48 that are perfect if you catch em when you're selecting you attacks and those huge extravagant moments like 2:25 that go amazingly well with Zarathustra's big attacks.

    Best of all, the whole feel of the song goes so well with the very name of the game. I almost get chills just listening to this song while thinking of that title.

    Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

  • I don't get how FFX's last battle theme is no.2 and "One Winged Angel" is no.43. "Dancing Mad" doesn't even make it to the list. What is the list based on?

  • Comment removed

  • Great list but where is Chrono Trigger Final Battle (with lavos)?

  • Was there any star ocean games or tales games those had awesome music phantasy star had some decent tunage I think your list for being so big is way to mainstream media directed :) play more games

  • your number 1 compared to some others YIKES man :)

  • Xenosaga's not a lesbian game, is it?

  • @MrWerehog23 Umm... WTF is a lesbian game? And no it is not. I'm a straight male and I loved it.

  • @blazinghen What I meant was "Is this a game where the main character (the girl with the glasses) falls in love with the android girl? Cause that's just plain sick." Does that make sense?

  • @MrWerehog23 Well no, Shion doesn't fall for KOS-MOS. She ends up with.... Allen I think. And What's wrong with lesbian action? Not being a perv, but it's not worse than normal relationships.

  • @blazinghen Sorry, I was thinking of trying out the game someday, but then, around 2005 or so, I saw the anime and a couple of DVD covers and assumed the plot would end up like that. And lesbian relationships aren't bad, people are free to think outside the box. I may be creeped out by it, but I can respect people's wish to fall for someone their own gender.

  • @MrWerehog23 But that's not what happens...That sort of lesbian-like relationship is completely fabricated. There are absolutely NO love stories in Xenosaga. The only thing that could be like a love story is that one of the sub-characters falls for the main character, and the love is for the most part, unrequited. That's all. The focus is on the huge epic biblical space drama, and it's worth your time.

  • @MrKain1000 Well, all I can do is take your word for it. Yes, I think I will play this game when I have the chance. Thanks for the heads up.

  • @MrWerehog23 Don't listen to that guy. He doesn't know what he's talking about. Xenosaga is a wonderful and underrated RPG. The 1st and 3rd game were great. The 2nd I disliked because of some changes in the battle system but overall, it's a great series. There were suppose to be 6 games but the series was cancelled due to low budget. :( The story is told well :)

  • @NinjaFoo777 omg you have not a good taste. Persona 4 is a great game but the music is very anoying. and that the reason its not in this list. Xenosaga 3 have some of the best music in jrpg history. P4 dont comes even close too X3s epicness

  • *sniff* Only one song from the Tales series (& that was all the way back in the 60s)?

  • kingdom hearts 5 times

  • Kajiura. Fucking yes. She is the goddess of music :D

  • If I were making this list, I might put something else at No. 1, but this track is certainly an excellent choice.

  • xenosaga is WAY BETTER than any of the final fantasy games...

  • Brstm for SSBB:

    -------->forums.kc-mm.com/Gall­ery/BrawlView.php

    Click Audio than on X

    it will be there!

  • i expected a total rage final evil battle song of the last epic gods with the blessings of the holy cat with full force againts the last of the very very strong and very evil demon lord of destruction and very dark darkness that will blind your very good souls that were given by the gods of light who hate the demonlord so now you have to kill him battle theme....

    but i got this...

    not that it's a bad theme song but i expected somthing bigger and more evil

  • best fight theme is definitaly persona 4 :)

  • dude you forgot the *Mana Khemia* battle themes..

    ( STIGMATA and Nefertiti )

    but your list was great!!..

  • wha? she is fighting that boss of the rescue with her other armor and other attcks wha?

    im lost XD

  • LOL i was addicted to this song for like EVER

    i still listen to it when i draw lol XD

  • Biased list, although this piece is really nice.

  • naaah... the worst of the whole list was this one... pick any other of the list and put it here

  • @Shadowslay23 nah. its epic and catchy.but if u don't feel it, i don't blame you.

  • hm, i was skeptical at first, never played xenosaga before... but pretty awesome song! oh

    @latincitizen yes Zelda has great music but it has very little good fighting music if you ask me. plus Zelda being in top 10 in anything is seriouse cliche XD

  • I was expecting Fight with Seymour from FFX at #1 as I didn't see it anywhere in your list yet... There are way more good tunes than the ones in your list in my opinion

  • Nevermind I got it

  • Do you know where I could download the song?

  • WHY isn't final fantasy boss theme on here it's on of the best in the series 

  • @FFcactuar uh....which one...?

  • @TheTrendSetter89 FFVII on #80 coolface/trollface

  • @TheTrendSetter89 I think he means FF VII,how can anyone forget la-la-lalala - SEPHIROTH!!! xD

  • @TheTrendSetter89 I would have to say Saber's Edge from XIII, or NEO Exdeath from V. To be honest, I found your list very fair and refreshing from all of the Final Fantasy dominated lists. Good job!

  • @FFcactuar Because final Fantasy suck ballz!

  • v.v. good list, didn't disagree with a thing on it, and seeing this at #1 makes me glad to see that there are still people out there that can recognize quality

  • The songs in Zelda are way better than your top 5.

  • @NegStarnite93 Support!!!

  • Where is one winged angel from Final fantasy 7?! It should have been number 1! Ok, I'm not serious. I love the Xenosaga series and this is a good pick.

  • not persona 3 battle theme? suck but nice

  • this game was retarded i saw like 11 copies of this game in th sale bin at my eb games and theyre still there now collecting dust in the fuckin corner lmfao

  • @Gangsterabc Its not that popular but that doesn't mean it sucks.

  • good list but honestly wtf Ocarina of Time?? Not an RPG... Also... Where the hell is Burn My Dread Last Battle?? Song is amazing... Honestly You may as well have put up the whole P3 soundtrack and not favor just like 6 games thats what it seems like you did.

  • Truly Epic. I have to go play this game

  • @watcher020 you've never played it?! omg, its AWESOME!!

  • man where it is all the music of the Tales saga? where is "Wilderness of Sandness"!?

  • Who say FUCK this game they can FUCK themselves this game has FUCK'N good story FUCK'N good game play and this song is FUCK'N amazing so all of you FUCK yourselves who say that this song doesn't deserve it's FUCK'N first place and I just forget what to say.......oh I remember FUCK YOU HATERS love ya :)

  • I will never forgive Namdai for abandoning Xenosaga (it is NOT finished)

  • i swear to god if anyone mentions that retardedly overhyped one winged angel over this masterpiece again...

  • Yeeay! I love this song and game! =] Nice pick!

  • One winged angel. Fuck this song and this game for that matter.

  • @Swatdog15 this game is beast...and one winged angel is one of those songs thats good at first but then ends up sucking.

  • Yea ur dumb this shit is gay one winged angel ownes.

  • ...You have a good opinion- and being a opinion I can't say your wrong with your number one- but it wouldn't be mine. One winged angle would have won it for me. : )

  • OMFG who was that old lady at the end of the clip!????

    3:23

    SHE GAVE ME A HEART ATTACK!

  • =( it's a chineese game... means i cant read what it says!!!!!????

  • Thanks for posting this, so I don't have to download the whole album, just the ones in this list har har har

  • wtf is this shit

  • @wateverwill Obviously this is music from a game called XENOSAGA EPISODE 3. If you don't like it, then don't comment.

  • @VVBlastFuryVV what do u mean "if you dont like it, then dont comment" wtf r u on. if i dont like it, the i can bloody well comment on it saying how shit it is, thats what half the comments are for.

  • @wateverwill I was just kidding LoL

  • @wateverwill its good shit.

  • thanks for this

  • woah woah wait a second, this guy didn't put tsugunai atonement on here, he must be crazy

  • This isn't really that epic though :[

  • I really appreciate a download link...pleaseeeee!!!

  • i personally would like to agree with this song being in #1. everyone else might not think so but im a huge fucking fan of Kajiura Yuki...

  • there are better rpg battles than this...this sounds like an opening and it doesnt deserve first place...

  • The problem with all game music lists is songs tend to sound 100 times better to you when you played the game and when you havent its a piece of crap.

  • Not a single Chrono Trigger song? You were sleeping.

  • agreed

  • Sorry to bother you guys with this. This video ( watch?v=Q-688hbx4ig ) apparently uses a track from the xenosaga OST. Can anyone who's more familiar with this music ID this for me please. It's not my intention to spam this vid (which song is great aswell). thx in advance :)

  • Just one other note about the top 100 list. I think some of the songs have incorrect names.

    For example, the FF7 battle theme is called "Fighting." I think you had it as something else. Moreover, you listed the awesome FF9 theme "Swords of Fury." I think the correct title is actually "Feel My Blade." I could be wrong. If I am, feel free to tell me though.

  • @themole90 Most JRPG album tracks are listed under multiple titles. Typically, there are names that are direct translations from Japanese and then the official English listings, which often have nothing to do with the Japanese title. I mostly used the titles directly translated from Japanese.

  • @sonick7777

    he is amazing, that being said there are better songs, but on average his work is well above the standard

  • i think that a contest of aeons from final fantasy should be in 1st cuz its more epic than this -.- this music is piece of crap in my opinion

  • I counted:

    Final Fantasy- 22 times

    Tales of- 1 time

    Okami - 1 Time

    Xenosaga Episode... - 5 times

    Xeno Gears - 2 times

    My bias detectors are going rapid.

  • @gggaaaaaarrraaa there's also over 20 games that are in the final fantasy series or are spinoffs. Let's talk portion control next.

  • @TheTrendSetter89 OKAMI!!!! WHERE!!???

  • @gggaaaaaarrraaa okami deserved moar and also shadow of collosus had like 6 or 7

  • @gggaaaaaarrraaa i know that this is an old post and there is little use in debating it at this point, but like others have said, FF games have a HUGE listing of games out there with many different composers (and at least one world class composer). The Xeno games have four installments. Okami 1, and maybe a few more in the Tales games. All of those combined aren't even close to the amount of FF RPG's that are out there.  That said, I agree that I'd like to see come other stuff in there too.

  • majority of the composers u see on this list are Nobuo Uematsu and Yuki Kajiura

  • Oh heck Yes. Number One. Xenoooosaga 3. Chaos, Kosmos, and Shion. The Top three I use the most. I still miss Chaos T.T

  • a lot of older stuff may sound outdated but the rythm to them surpass a ton of others. the snes final fantasies are eumatsus best work by far

  • Sorry, but did you include " You may call me father - bayonetta" in the top 100?

  • @beowolfradiaoul oh nevermind i just saw the list :p

  • Uematsu is some kind of god... Yeah! I'm a fanboy, so what?!

  • You mean the 100 top JRPG + Legend of Zelda battlethemes right?

  • It was a JRPG too lol.

  • @fxc2 + Shadow of the Colossus.

  • @KoolDreAgassi It was actually Japanese too.

  • nice~ but not rly what i call no.1 :P

  • humi am really honny today! Anybody is bored too and want to msg meh

  • AWESOME choice at #1There isn't a better game soundtrack out there.

  • this game has the best story =]

  • Xenosaga has the best "epic"music

  • i actually counted nobuo uematsu 20 times on this list.....20 TIME!!!

    thats 20% of all the themes

    thats every 5. !!

    now thats what i call a genius isnt he?

  • @TerroRambo i second that!

  • @TerroRambo It's also the way that the songs are used. Music can be terrific, but it's made even more powerful due to the scene it's used in. Hearing Aeris's theme isn't going to do as much for a random person as it would to somebody who has played FF7.

  • Wow this song is just epic, the game was also awesome and it had a freakin weird and hard to understand story!

  • Why does Kajiura use the same made-up lyrics to all her songs with her made-up language? I've heard these same lyrics on "A Song of Storm and Fire" from Tsubasa Chronicle.

  • yeah it was epic but the game was :( whatever lol

  • lol i was scared shitless of xenosaga 2 for some weird reason something about the aliens coming and fuckin murdering ppl scared me so bad haha

  • I was kinda freaked when the dude blew up his own head. haha

  • ALBEDOOOOOOOOOOOOO! (JR Rules!)

  • Okie i loved xenosaga n i truly do, but im really sad tht they just ended it at 3 when theres supposed to b bloody 6 FREAKING SEQUELS!!!

    There still soo many question unanswered n ziggy story was kinda poorly done when he was my favourite character in the game T_T

  • i feel your pain

  • Who wouldnt T_T

  • Awesome list.

  • Im surprised that there isnt any FF7 fanboys/girls throwing a tantrum about why one winged angel isnt in this spot lol.

  • We love one winged angel because it fits the boss battle so well, other themes arent as good because they simply dont fit the enemy right, but there are better themes out there

  • @3andathumbdowm i loved ff7 more than MOST rpgs but one winged angel does not deserve to be in the #1 spot at all i would personally give it to suikoden 2 neclord battle maybe ff7 jenova ffviii boss theme or one of the lighthouse fights from goldensun 1 or 2

  • @Baumaud im not saying its a bad game or anything i actually loved it. I was just pretty much saying that its an overrated song IMO :P

  • the extreme was the best final boss theme ever.

  • look a bit at the newer comment (kinda) xD

  • @3andathumbdowm in fact, it should deff be at n1 :P

  • is this a boss battle or normal battle?

  • @Joe100284 This is the final battle theme, when you fight Zarathustra.

  • the wa y to tell is to look inside,bring out the emotions you would feel and FEEL the music

  • I thought Battle at the Big Bridge from FFV would be it... but i don't even see it...

  • @Theworkerbee: Its in there some where. He uses the XII pic though

  • #29 :)

  • The countdown playlist in your description does not work :(

  • The list was ridiculously biased towards PS2 games. Such little love for games released before 2000 is really disappointing.

    My opinion, yes, but I am sure there are many who agree with me on that.

  • that's some epic shit !

  • i would not even put this in the top 50 ... opinions... if it is an official list then have a vote and put a list of every RPG ever made next to it... then we have a vote...

  • Because that is a failure way.

    The game with more fans will win.

    Not the best song. Dur.

  • Definitely deserving of the number 1 spot. A great theme to end a series which ended WAAAY too soon....

  • nah, there have been way better songs than this.

  • Lol, opinions....

  • Ok?

  • Just kidding. In short, we all have opinions. I personally think that this is among the greatest songs in gaming, while you may not. And that's fine.

  • yea, yea i know

  • I commented on #4 saying that I thought it might be good enough for #1... Now I see why it's at #4. This is amazing.

  • Yuki Kajiura!? Seriously!? THAT'S why this sounds like it came from a .hack game. Xb

  • 1 Question: Why isn't Roar of the Departed Souls from Lost Odyssey on this whole list? I think it should be #1.

  • I'm sorry to say this but it's not a battle theme , even though it is an awesome song

  • It is, the final boss in xenosaga 3.

  • I love this track. About time with someone with great underground taste!

  • hahaha, that's where the best pieces are!

  • Comment removed

  • I agree, Yu Yevon's theme is one of the very few bad themes of FFX. When I saw it as #2, I have to say, I thought "LOLWAT"

  • @HMsstudios909 but that song just sounds like an ordanary song. it doesnt sound like an rpg song at all, and thats what it has to sound like to get in the list.

  • @HMsstudios909 It's not a battle theme you idiot!

  • can somebody tell me why this game has the name of one of Friedrich Nietzsche's books? (also sprach zarathustra)

  • Comment removed

  • mostly because its too overrated IMO.

  • If you honestly think Yu Yevon is the worst theme in FFX, then you have not seen the ending of the game.

  • Comment removed

  • The Yu Yevon theme and ending themes are different..... How does that mean I haven't seen the end of the game? Because I know the difference of the two and you don't?

  • What disappoints me about this countdown is that its basis is on games given good coverage in america. It doesn't even mention games that aren't mainstream, or were only released in Japan.

    Don't get me wrong, these themes are great, but I don't think that the entire spectrum of battle themes were examined when the votes were tallied.

  • No kidding, it's a little disheartening to see NOTHING from disgaea for example.

  • I was thinking of a few top theme tunes, and THIS was one of the ;) Though not my favourite, I can see why this is at the top, well done on the choice!!!

  • Epic, there is no other way to describe this song.

  • What, no Battle for Everyone's Souls? D=

  • At least I was missing Landing from FF VIII and Counterattack from SotC :(

  • FF IV (II in america) for SNES...Best RPG EVER (IMO)

  • I am laughing my ass off at all the pissed people in the comments below me.

  • You and me both. I guess they can't feel the emotion of the music and only focus on what they hear.

  • zzzzzzzz

  • Is this a joke?

  • i have to agree with this song it's so addicting. . . . .

    finally reached top 1. took me a whole day to listen to all . . . .

    damn . . . . So bored
