It's true that Wily 1 is amazing and all but I think it's a liiiiittle bit overrated.
6 had a lot of good tracks for me.
Lovely remix album. I Recommend it to all (it's free).
Tekken 2 is still my favorite in the whole series. King, Jun, Devil, Paul... their themes are so awesome. Although, I'm always thinking at Grandia's theme for Parm when I hear Paul's track.
Alrighty, here's the deal: List your favorite final boss music to discuss in the thread. Oh, and please post a video showing the song.
for example:
One-Winged Angel from Final Fantasy 7
This is my 2nd favorite final boss theme because it has a dark atmosphere in the melody and Latin choir, describing the inner atmosphere of Sephiroth himself. Major props to Nobuo Uematsu for composing this art of splendor.
Emperor of Eternal Darkness from Okami
3rd Favorite final boss music, one step behind One-Winged Angel. I like this melody because it is dark and unholy for such a boss, unlike Giygas from Earthbound, who is symbolic the max and has morbid sounds for BGM. This is my personal favorite music for Yami, the music's star, because I liked this a little bit more than Rising sun. Rei Kondoh, this is the best Okami boss music composed by you!
Now, last but not least, my #1 favorite Final Boss music....
Battle: Lord Blazer from Wild Arms 2
This is personally my most favorite boss from the Wild Arms series because Lord Blazer himself goes on almost eternally until he is struck down by a certain attack. The song that plays in the background is a remix of Disc 1's opening theme, giving a sign of hope and unity, combined together to vanquish the evil plaguing the universe.
This wonderful ingame remix of the song was composed by Michiko Naruke, as was the original song. The Wild Arms series, especially the second installment, needs to be more recognized by RPG fans, but that is just my opinion.
Please take your time and choose some final boss music of your choice.
I don't see how this couldn't just be part of Favorite VG Music, but what the hell, since we're here...
I never even played this game, but I watched my friend fight the final boss, and really it was the music for the final phase of it that made me remember the fight for so long. The theme isn't even THAT memorable, but it's the FEELING you get when you listen to it.
A game that I have played, but haven't beaten yet. I heard the song before I started to play, though. Feels really intense.
I never thought fighting in a hotel parking lot could be so cool.

I loved the SNES version back in the day, this is the updated version for the remake that's far more epic than the original.
Another remade song, but not from a remade game.
merged this to the game music thread
