What else have you worked on ?

I thought you worked at SE my apologies sir =]
God Eater 2, Ace Combat Cross Rumble, Tekken, a couple of NHK productions, and quite a few things that I'm not at liberty to talk about just yet.
We -can- record orchestra, but are just as well-equipped to record everything from just a choir to a string quartet, solo instruments, solo vocals, etc.
(If you meant 'you' as in 'me' and not 'VGO' I'm also credited on Bioshock Infinite yay)
I think I'm pretty cute.
You're recording for the PS4 Tales game?
No you as in you...Music in Infinite was amazing.Loved how the game used classical pieces as well.
Tekken huh which Tekken recordings did you work on ?There are some high quality song recordings in Tekken.
tag your spoilers, man!!!
;=;
Well, I'm an all purpose audio guy. My stint with Bioshock Infinite was via dSonic, an audio solutions outsource company. We're credited with 'additional sound' and had nothing to do with the music. Sorry if I gave that impression.
We did choir (both lyrics and recording) for Tekken Tag Tournament 2. This was a bit further back.

Yeah, Go Shiina writes amazing stuff.
He's also really big into choir - both orchestral and the really piercing bulgarian women's choir style (think Xenogears Creid)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOM2LCWzNYg Another of his similar works (we also did choir for this)
No.

Cheers man! Meant to look it up and post it but it completely slipped my mind.

Not really big into Final Fantasy but holy shit at that trailer. Looked fantastic. Is the blonde person a girl or boy? Legit question.

i'm so glad even after uematsu left we have superb composers working on FF games.

Cloud is the same age as Lightning during the main game. Though I guess he's mentally 17.

Duuuuude. The models are so cool looking!

Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Yabuki turned off voice chat in Mario Kart races. True artists of their time.
brah
Certainly. It's hard to compare them, they all leave a beautiful touch on the games tehy compose for. As the games have changed composers have matched them well.
The fact that you escaped all the backlash of there not being a main female character is more surprising that you don't know Prompto's gender.

Er, no it isn't. What self-respecting Japanese person would insert "uguu~" into their daily conversation, anyway.
what ? If anything he's older mentally than physically.

Mm, I meant because
he's captured by Hojo at the age of 16 and then was experimented on before being put into cryogenic sleep for four years.
dont know, personally i think after Uematsu left FFs OSTs have been pretty forgetable except when they remix or reuse uematsus peaces

I think the main 4 are all in their early 20's.
Anyway, for VA, I already mentioned Greg Cripes for Prompto, I think Troy would be good as Gladiolus, for Ignis i'm not to sure, maybe Robin Atkin Downes. I keep hearing Cloud when I think of Noctis though.

I think the same.
It's just not the same without Nobuo Uematsu. Yoko Shimomura is pretty great, though. Not quite at the same level, but close enough.
I know ,but he acts older than his age.

I don't think an immature thought crosses his mind throughout the game.
Yeah I was sort of elluding to Shimomura. Uematsu has his own fingerprint, and the series was defined by it. But I am thankful we have someone like Shimomura to fill his wake.

Yar, I meant it more as
"he's only experienced 17 years worth of life" rather than how he behaves.

Has a Final Fantasy game had a collaboration for the OS? I mean significant contribution by two composers.
I remember Chrono Trigger being a collaborative effort.
A Uematsu and Shimomura OST would be godly. But alas, only a dream.

First thing I will do once I get paid next month is buy Kingdom Hearts 1.5 Remix. My interest in Nomura has increased after watching these trailers
He throwing fire over goblins and summoning some gods doesn't help with realism either
He's sort of left the series for good hasn't he?
KH is a decent game, but avoid everything after that.
you're in for a hell of a time.

That's why I said significant contribution by two composers.
Why did they stop considering Uematsu for their OST's anyway?
That's what people thought, then the internet went wild on June 2009-ish when it was announced he was composing FFXIV (1.0)
I think it's really going to depend on the situation.
(Personally I find it kind of hilarious that the diehard Uematsu 'fans' have largely not even heard Blue Dragon or The Last Story. Yes, this is a generalization, apologies if it doesn't apply to you)
To be fair, a lot of his stuff from XIV 1.0 has been replaced if not relegated to short cutscenes. It's a bit of a shame even if Soken is so good.
Uematsu is the only one in the industry who really makes music that sounds like this. Really reminds me of Ronfaure from FFXI.
Noticed something interesting. Ship that crashes in the city here seems to be the same kind going to accordio in the night shot here
going by the back of the ships.

I think a lot of the designs of vehicles and locations won't change much. I'm eager to see, not only the gallery, but both King Regis and Noctis's throne rooms rendered like the TGS tech demo(with that awesome lighting).

It's more like the series left him. FF directors/producers generally choose a composer they're friends with, so Matsuno chose Sakimoto for XII, Kitase chose Dirge of Cerberus' Hamauzu for XIII, and Nomura chose Shimomura for XV. Only Tanaka still wanted Uematsu, for XIV 1.0.

How can they not be friends with Uematsu san?
