What is your favorite music for any RPG? Mine is the song "Simple and Clean" (the music in the opening and closing movie sequences) from Kingdom Hearts.

The Aeris theme on ff7, when she dies, also the opening theme to ff7 is rather good too.

Tina [FF6] and Messenger of Destruction [FF9] have been my favorites for some time now...

Edit: the Orchestral version of Hikari (Simple and Clean) that plays if you leave the PS2 running on the new game / load game screen is pretty memorable as well... It's not even Uematsu's stuff either ^_^

The Chocobo tune, FF7 and FF10 in particular, FF7's chocobo tune was the best.

Otherworld from FFX was good.

Revelations: Persona had a great soundtrack. The boss battle theme was especially good. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night has the best music I've ever heard in a videogame.

Anything from Nobou Umatsu... He's my favorite composer for all the Final Fantasy Games... I've never listened to a song in FF I didnt like.

One-Winged Angel is glorious!

I think FFIX's chocobo music the best.

Pretty much any of the Final Fantasy songs, but especially FFIX battle & Boss music, as well as Other World (FFX) and One Winged Angel (FFVII).

Jenova Sythesis from FFVII, great track... or anything from SaGa Frontier 2, if you havent heard that OST, you owe it to yourself to go check it out, there isnt one track on there that isnt incredible... the Final Ice Monster Theme for it is especially wicked :)

the music in FFVI when you are controling terra when you go on the map screen. Was very good.

But the deus ex music was by far the best. I love it. The main theme tune and the music at the templer place in france. Same thing really

that first one'll be "Terra" then :) ... as for the Deus Ex music, I definatly see where your comming from. My faves were the Hong Kong and versalife themes... and most definatly that main theme ^_^

oh and 16thletter, I quite liked the SF2 music but I can't really pin down one i liked over the rest....

For Saga I thought a lot of the battle themes were really good... the one war theme when you were on the plains early on was superb.... oh and the final egg battle was absolutely phenomenal... that game is underrated in my mind, never has a game been more satisfying to beat without codes...

Yeah the latest one I like a lot is the one from the anime intro of Suikoden III (as for new ones.) Was that the one already mentioned? Haunting stuff.

Xenogears- Small Two of Pieces

Chrono Cross- Time's Scar (But I liked the remixed version of this on the "Time & Space: A Tribute To Yasunori Mitsuda" soundtrack much better)

FFVIII- Liberali Fatali

FFIX- Regular battle music

Adding to my list!!

Jechts Battle Tune - FFX (Freaking cool)

Hmm well I have quite a comprehensive list of "best songs" but to be perfectly honest it changes as often as the wind with me...However for quite some time now FFIX's "Bran Bal" theme has been my most treasured.

Others include everyones favourite "Fishermans Horizon" (FFVIII), "One Winged Angel" (FFVII), "Cids Theme" (FFVII), Almost all the FFVI OST blah blah Final Fantasy.... :)

Non FF, hmm i'd say some of the Suikoden 1 stuff was superb, though having not played it for 5 years or seen an available OST OR even a downloadable mp3, I cant name a particular track.

Knnow that I think about it my favorite RPG music also changes like the wind. Yesterday I was thinking about Zelda today I'm thinking of the depressing FF7 song for Nibelheim with the Sephiroth clones.
