The title of this posting probably just turned-off 95% of the people on STC
but for the remaining 5%, what have you been recently listening to? I have to say I've been listening to these:
Diablo 15 Year Anniversary Soundtrack CD
Dragon Knight Saga
Skyrim (4 CD soundtrack!)
They are all amazing soundtracks! The DKS was a real surprise, same thing with the game. Even if you do not play the game, the soundtrack is a joy to listen! Oh, and it's very easy to find and inexpensive (for the time being). Skyrim, well everyone expected it to be game of the year.
As for older soundtracks, I've recently taken a liking to:
Fable
Mass Effect
actually I've enjoyed Fable for a while. Mass Effect, has some beautiful tracks, but the soundtrack overall is 4/5 stars. I feel it could have been done better. Fable is definitely a 5/5, and I personally think the first Fable soundtrack is the best.
Anyway, if there are any others out there that actually listen to non-Japanese soundtracks (shocking!), please add to this thread! By the way, I do also love Japanese vgm, I just feel that Western game music gets ignored too often. Oh, and Final Fantasy remakes suck. That last line had nothing to do with anything, I just wanted to say it, so there!
