Not really, I grew out of FF after FF7 and Tactics, the emo nonsense of Squall and FF8 turned me off considerably. At the same time, I became a lifelong fan of Suikoden, and I still listen to all their soundtracks on a daily basis. Just goes to show you that substance has a lot more staying power than flash

I find most Final Fantasy soundtracks to have way more substance than any of the Suikoden ones. Just goes to show you that opinions are entirely relative to individuals.
About FF8, I like the soundtrack almost as much as I hate the game. It contains some of the most powerful Uematsu's compositions, in my opinion. I also totally love FF9, but can't stand anything past it.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
