Kageryu255 – I think I know the battle music you’re talking about. If the one you’re talking about isn’t Secrets Revealed — the second half of the track is particularly percussion heavy — then it’s the second most played piece of battle music in the game. There is a battle theme in the game that I wish was on this soundtrack.

I have to agree with those who say the music is too sparse. If you’re doing story missions in fast order, you’ll get plenty of music, but if you’re just wandering around Empire City looking for items or side quests, there’s a disappointing lack of music.

However, that small complain aside, the music in the game is excellent. It reminds me of the work Akira Yamaoka has done for the Silent Hill franchise, only tilted more toward comic book action than horror. It creates amazing atmosphere.

My favorite tracks from the soundtrack are Alden Strikes and Secrets Revealed. I particularly like Secrets Revealed; it seems to be the general battle theme in the game. Whenever I’m fighting during side missions, this is usually the music that plays. Love it.

Does anyone know the name of the theme that plays during the credits at the very end of the game??? I loved that song! not to mention some of the slow motion scenes they did with it when they were making trailers?

Loved the music, loved the game… but, like Revolutionary mentions above, I really wish the theme that plays in the commercial, just as Cole says, “Everyone thinks I have the power to fix it…”, was included on the soundtrack.. (which can be found on iTunes btw, for those wishing to purchase). That heavy percussion theme was present in a number of the most exciting battles in my playthrough (seemed to only be queued when all hell was breaking loose), and I wish I could get a copy of it out-of-game. :(

I’ve played almost all the way through the story and i feel like ive never heard any music at all. just the sounds of stuff blowing up, ppl yelling at me on the street etc. Am i missing something?

Just picked this up over the weekend and it’s fantastic. The music, however, just randomly happens in it. It keeps tricking me, because some games use it to warn you that something is about to happen, so I put my guard up when it comes in, then nothing special happens.

In-game XMB music is needed for this title. Hopefully you guys will patch that in. Long stretches of the game are dead silent, although I guess that adds to the atmosphere of the game.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that the music that is there is excellent but there’s no rhyme or reason as to why it starts and stops, I want to hear more. :)

absolutely brilliant composition and it goes together really well with the theme of the game.
