     > Another reason why Sega games always seem to fare well over time is the incidence of awesome soundtracks.  Sonic Team knew Phantasy Star Online would have to be a revolutionary experience from start to finish.  The orchestral soundtrack in the game is an integral contributor to that end...

     > As soon as you hear the "PSO Opening Theme", the original RPG's classic melody can be discerned.  It's all uphill from there.  Experience a wonderful mixture of orchestral delights with a futuristic flare.  I know some of you will cringe, but even after hundreds of gaming hours, I'm still not even close to being sick of this tremendously soothing and uplifting soundtrack.

     > There's a big bonus too.  To begin with, included are the lyric versions of the "PSO Opening Theme" and "Can Still See the Light" (ending theme)!  Not enough?  How about wind orchestra versions of both the opening and ending themes!  Awesome!!!  Finally, this is a CD-Extra, which contains PC accessible goodies like wave files and bitmaps!

Bottom Line:
     > The PSO ost is another quality (Sega) product from start to finish -- just like the game!  If you can still find this disc, then buy it.  I'm positive you'll treasure the music and extras as much as I do...

Overall: 10
