Along with mp3s of it, which can be had on some of the various FTPs at Gamingforce.
I've only gotten a little of it so far, but I'll say this...its different. o_O

Different how? Is it good? Bad? Not as elegant? Too much of something? Tell me! ^_^ I'm curious .. I might have to download a song to see if it's good or not.

Many people on the game music boards are seriously hating on it. I haven't heard it yet, but what little I've heard from movies of the game isn't very promising.

Well, it's definitely not FF music, if that's what you're wondering. What little I've heard has been incredibly generic light and fluffy dance-type music. Goes along with the generally light and fluffy feel of the game. Whoever it was that called it FFX: Slumber Party hit the nail right on the head.

Wow.. depressing... but then again it was to be rather expected. I mean.. the game made it rather clear that it's all graphics and little else. I'll take a stab at a tune or two just to see, though. I'm not gonna write it off quite yet... if nothing else maybe it's good for a laugh.

I plan to wait until I've actually played the game before finding the music. I thought that the FFX soundtrack was incredible, but I only find a few of the pieces to be able to stand alone without the game (or memories of it). The music was rather bland by itself, but it was really powerful when the rest of the game was there.

The songs are all considerably shorter, simpler, less impressive in terms of instruments and melody, and feel a lot more like they belong in an old arcade shooter instead of an RPG.
Some songs are quite catchy and stick in your head, but you can definetely tell that Square didn't put their all into it this time around. Some blame it on not having Nobuo. I blame it on being lazy, because a good number of these songs had potential to be awesome if they were worked on more.
I guess the best way to compare it is that its the KOF 2001 of Final Fantasy soundtracks. ;)

I don't care for it... It does fit the actual game itself though I suppose. I think the last game the two composers worked on was 'The Bouncer'.

It seems to me that Final Fantasy's music has been going down since FF7. I haven't played 9 yet, but 8, X and most of 7's soundtracks seriously put me to sleep.
