OST Final Fantasy XIII Original Sountrack - New, In Stock

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» The original Final Fantasy games belted out melodious beeps and boops for the sound effects and music. They didn't sound bad but that was old-school chiming and sound chip technology has marched onwards. When the series reached the Super Famicom, melodious musical scores became the norm for the franchise. The songs progressively got grander under the guiding hand of Nobuo Uematsu.

For the thirteenth Final Fantasy, Nobuo stepped aside and handed the reins over to Masashi Hamauzu who has worked on Final Fantasy X and Saga Frontier 2. The new FFXIII Original Soundtrack spans four CDs which are packaged neatly in a foldout binder. All preorders are shipping today and new orders are welcome.

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Japanese songstress Sayuri Sugawara sings the theme song "Kimi ga Irukara" (Because I Have You) for Final Fantasy XIII which was released on CD this week in Japan. The song fits the overall "feel" of the Final Fantasy series - it sounds tailor-made for a sweeping, soaring, and dramatic adventure such as FFXIII. For the American localization of FFXIII, gamers can look forward to Leona Lewis' "My Hands" which Square has chosen for the theme song.

Sayuri also sings a second song on the disc titled "Eternal Love" which is described as an insertion song for FFXIII. Both tracks are included in the new Final Fantasy XIII Kimi ga Irukara CD along with four additional tracks as follows:

» Christmas Again
» Kimi ga Irukara (Instrumental)
