While I'm still hoping for a FF6 styled new gen FF with Amano designs, sci-fi themed FFs with Hamauzu and Shimomura as composers most likely means we'll get to hear more electronica from them. Which is terrific since I do like their eletronic works very much. More notably, I don't remember Shimomura doing a full-fledged eletronic soundtrack since Parasite Eve so this will be highly anticipated. And as with Goldfish, I think we might get to hear more rock from her. I am crossing my fingers that Hamauzu won't be too cinematic with the score. FF7: DoC was a bit too much for me. Another gripe: where's Nakano?!?!?

I was really hoping Amano would be doing character designs this time around. Guess he's either doing background or monster designs. Or *gasp* the title logo. I'm a bit curious about the spin-off thingy. The collection of FF7 must have been extremely well recieved, with fans clamouring for more. Wonder who will will be composing for the FF13 mobile game, if there's any new material.

Can't quite form concrete opinions about the music from the clip Mr. Maul posted. A bit muffled but it sounds alright in any case. Quite likely a Hamauzu piece or arrangement. And the clip's female character looks a bit too much like a cross between FF7's male lead and FF12's female lead. A bit disappointing. Also have this feeling the FF13 action spin-off will have lots and lots of Devil May Cry/Viewtiful Joe styled jumping...

Jam it back in, in the dark.
I think therefore I am... I think.

Just had a listen to the trailer mp3. Couldn't really make out the music too well from earlier clips. I must say the music is pretty good. It's impactful and catchy, and doesn't quite have the same cinematic trappings of FF7: DoC but does sound anime-like. If the rest of the soundtrack is anything like this mp3 I don't think I'll be too disappointed with the final product.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
