Yeah Star Ocean(the second story) Had some good music. He did some other games I've played but I don't remember it all so he loses some points there.

Evaluation:

Pleasant, but forgettable.

Re: Rate this VG music composer: Motoi Sakuraba

I have a few samples. I like these:

Tales of Symphonia - Beat the Angel

Golden Sun - Venus Lighthouse

[ErikaFuzzbottom]

Re: Rate this VG music composer: Motoi Sakuraba

I've only played Mario Tennis 64, Golden Sun I&II, and Tales of Symphonia. I enjoy much of the music from the Golden Sun games, but the music in Mario Tennis and Tales of Symphonia aren't prominent enough for me to notice much.

But then, it kinda helps that Golden Sun is a handheld game. It's a bit easier for good music to stand out. A real shame that it's one of those RPGs where the music completely restarts after finishing a battle instead of continuing from where it left off like in the later FF games.

Re: Rate this VG music composer: Motoi Sakuraba

Valkyrie Profile has some nice stuff but I could never find the tracks I wanted.

Re: Rate this VG music composer: Motoi Sakuraba

Mora summed it up good, as he does... all the time.

Batien Katos had some niiiiiice tunes, though.

[Toaster]

Re: Rate this VG music composer: Motoi Sakuraba

I dunno Mora. You're right for the most part but some of his music I'd be able to recognize within the first few notes. Like any of the Golden Sun music, for instance.

Re: Rate this VG music composer: Motoi Sakuraba

Never played Golden Sun.
