About this Countdown:

I'd first like to credit Underworld23, whose own Top 100 Battle Themes Playlist I viewed in its entirety. However, I couldn't help but think the entire time how much I disagreed with the list, no offense to Underworld23, of course. So I decided to take this cool idea on myself. And now we have my take.

Regarding the music chosen in this list: In the case that a theme appears in multiple games, I chose the version I preferred; All the music in this list is represented as it is heard in the game (no arrangements); Music from action RPGs are included at my discretion (as in, what I consider to be either an action RPG or an action/adventure game avid RPG players are likely to play and/or enjoy for the same or similar reasons they would any other RPG).

Fanboys/girls are bound to flip a $hit when this list is complete, but please don't personally e-mail me your own incensed fanboy/girl diatribes and opinions on this countdown

Of course, if you don't like this countdown, perhaps you will enjoy Underworld23's at:

[EternalShadowheart]

yeah it is =), so far TrendSetter your list has been awesome accept for some tracks i think should have been graded better but, still a good list =)

[TheTrendSetter89]

haha so many of you are so impatient :) You gotta wait for me to finish the list before you decide what deserves to be better, etc

[MaidenIreland]

If this list were mine, this would have been way higher. I'm just glad it's here! GREAT game.

[cmdrtobi]

oh man... gotta play this game again ...

[Thinker2112]

This track reminds me of Roundball Rock (the NBA on NBC theme).

[exninja]

seriously grandia had such great music in their games

[halcyonblitz]

omg am i the only one who notices the crazy last second picture? it fits perfectly!

[Xarbic]

This is one of my favorite games of all time! Loved the combat system and i am not ashamed to say i got tears in my eyes when Mareg died.

[flobbadobbawobba]

TEN-SEI-KEN SLASH!

[cdoi85]

Great theme and the game is one of my favorites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iamtehultimatepwnage]

excellent game

[MelchizPrime]

Agreed.

Iwadare is an excellent composer but suffers from less renown than his Square counterparts. For those who discover him, he is a treat.

[dannysimion]

Ahh! Grandia II's music is energetic in the right level. Not too much rock and roll and just enough instrument to enjoy those mundane random battles experienced throughout the game. What a must have for my BGM collection!!
