http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7DNHxzUxEI< I hate rock battle music. Koichi Sugiyama is the best RPG composer.

Koji Kondo is the best game composer, but Koichi is the best RPG composer.


Koji Kondo's work is actually fairly elementary, particularly when considered alongside many other very accomplished composers in the industry.

I was simply hoping you were talking about FF12, and not Digital Devil Saga. Considering that SMT is a strong contender for my favorite series in gaming. An expression of opinion in the face of an opposing one, nothing more.
you hoped both wrong and right buddy
good music is utterly crucial to a game and anyone who says otherwise is lying.

No. 99% of his songs are hits. As in, they are memorable/catchy. No other composer in the video game industry is as good as Koji Kondo.

Music SHOULD be "elementary." As in, it should pertain or deal with elements, rudiments, or first principles. It should be simple. Not avant garde or unmemorable.

La Mulana's soundtrack was pretty good, especially at the start of the game. Still didn't help the game when you got hit by the bird miniboss in the Gate of Confusion and you had to go back up the Sky Tower just to get back because seriously fuck you La Mulana
