> In some ways this Let The Winds Blow soundtrack picks up
right where the PSO
Episode II soundtrack left off. This continuity helps
greatly in the enjoyment of the game and its music. This is the Sega
gamers sorely miss these days. Anyway, there's plenty of orchestral
delights with the futuristic flare we've come to expect from Phantasy
Star Online games. Just listening to the soundtrack while
doing this review makes me want to fire up the old Gamecube
for a few rounds of Episode III.
> Disc 1 features tunes exclusive to the "Hunters" (good guys) path of
card collection, while disc 2 has the "Arkz" (dark side) music. I
especially like the PSOeIII Theme song, "Let The Winds Blow", with its
commanding rhythm and wonderful voice track. In all actuality, the
only reason I can't give this soundtrack a "10" is that it's slightly less
impressive compared to the original PSO soundtrack.
Bottom
Line:
> The PSO Episode III soundtrack fits in nicely with Episodes
I & II. No doubt, Sega nailed the music in this
series. You can't go wrong with 2 CDs and over 2 hours of exceptional
RPG music. Fans of PSO that don't like card games should
buy this too. Now, we need the Sega of this period
to come back and do justice to current consoles!
Overall:
9/10 |
