15. Baldr Force – Face of Fact
User: azuarc
Link:
First Impressions: Techno plus vocals equals cool song.
Thoughts: I like vocals still! And the effects this track has are really nice additions to it overall. Honestly this should come as no surprise being this high on my list. And, uh, well, I sort of have already said everything else I would want to in other posts. Other than me questioning why the game is called Baldr Force. Anyhow, azuarc got off to a shaky start on my list, but his last three picks totally make him deserving of remaining this far. He managed to hang on long enough to be the twelfth user fully posted.

14. MS Saga: A New Dawn – Giant G System
User: tazzyboyishere

First Impressions: Why so long?
Thoughts: Six minutes for this track? Really? It apparently has a loop, fortunately, so it is not as bad as it seems. That said, I wound up liking this. The slower beat still kept my attention, the instruments and effects are good, and I love the bells. As some of you might know, I am a sucker for bells. It is sort of funny that this got posted. I have read a Let’s Play for this game, but it was all pictures and text, so I never got to hear any of the soundtrack.

13. Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja 5 – Sasuke Uchiha
User: Orochimaru_Fan

First Impressions: Anything relating to Sasuke should not be this good.
Thoughts: Seriously, what was the thought process of the creators for the game for this track? “Hey, you know that utterly awful character that has no redeeming qualities?” “Yeah?” “Let’s give him a really amazing theme.” “Sure!” Oh well, I am not here to judge how appropriate themes are for characters, or else I would still be asking about how Rikku’s works. This is an incredibly pretty piece that does a lot right. I feel a secret shame ranking it this high, but I can’t deny how much I like it.

12. Soul Calibur V – Venice Rooftops (SCV Mix)
User: NioraptH
Link:
First Impressions: Wait, Ezio is in Soul Calibur V?
Thoughts: What is with Assassin’s Creed having good music? Call me ignorant if you want, I just never thought that series would contain so many tracks I liked. I assume I would like the original of this, in any case. This version is great either way. The low vocals really set the mood, keeping the track fast enough to be fight music while remaining mysterious, and in a strange sense, pretty. This one is certainly a keeper. NioraptH was someone I expected really good choices from, and I was not disappointed. Way to get to thirteenth poster to be posted.

11. Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective – Jowd ~A Captive of Fate
User: KirinATW
Link:
First Impressions: Gosh I want to play this game, especially if it has more music like this.
Thoughts: What exactly is it that appeals to me so much about this? I think I can attribute my love to the fast sections of strings. When I first heard this at VGMusic of the Day, I instantly decided it was one of my favorite discoveries from that channel. Just, dang, those strings. Those strings carry the whole thing, even though the rest is fairly good.
