Intro to Console RPG OST Soundtracks

Here is a brief selection of console RPG video game soundtracks, in MP3 format. Some of them are commercial releases, some of them are amateur game rips. None of them I did myself. The bit rates and the encoding quality varies from soundtrack to soundtrack. The list is by no means exhaustive, but I had a hard time finding some of these soundtracks so I am offering them here to make it easier for everybody else. These are the games: Faxanadu (NES), Crystalis (NES), Secret of Evermore (SNES), Legend of Legaia (PS1), Alundra (PS1), Ultima Underworld (PS1), Star Ocean - The Second Story (PS1), Thousand Arms (PS1), Lunar Silver Star Story Complete (PS1), Threads of Fate (PS1), Lunar 2 Eternal Blue (PS1), Valkyrie Profile (PS1), Vandal Hearts (PS1); Chrono Trigger (SNES), Radical Dreamers (SV), Chrono Cross (PS1); Dragon Quest 1 & 2 (SNES), Dragon Quest 3 (SNES), Dragon Quest 4 (NES), Dragon Quest 5 (SNES), Dragon Quest 6 (SNES), Dragon Quest 7 (PS1), Dragon Quest 8 (PS2); Seiken Densetsu (Gameboy), Secret of Mana (SNES), Seiken Densetsu 3 (SNES), Legend of Mana (PS1), Sword of Mana (GBA); plus a few remake soundtracks and covers. I deliberately left out Final Fantasy, because those are pretty easy to find, and anyway I was always more into Dragon Warrior *pbbbbbt*! (I reaaaally hate anime cut-scenes!) :) Here are some of the sites where I found them, and where you may be able to find more soundtracks like them (such as the original NES versions of Dragon Quest/Dragon Warrior, or Final Fantasy, or Zelda): http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/ http://www.sound-test.org/soundtracks/ http://snesorama.us/ http://bluelaguna.net/music/ Enjoy! --FluxCapacitor

I am having trouble with some of the Secret of Mana files not working on Windows Media Player. However, they play just fine on Nero Showtime 2. How can I get them to play on Windows Media Player ?

FluxCapacitor (2008-08-11)

Sorry I don't use Windows Media Player, I only use Winamp. I don't have any trouble playing them.

I didn't know there was people that still used Windows Media Player xD

I only DL'd the Threads of Fate OST from this torrent, bu thank you for including it! I was looking for a torrent of it so i didn't have to manually download each and every track, so thanks!

FluxCapacitor (2009-02-18)

TonyBludd - take what you want, listen to what you take! But seed as long as you can! :-) I know it's pretty shitty to have to dl every file separately, that's why I put these up here!
PenuelFlux - yeah i am glad I took it before you! :-)

Lord_Mrakainus_of_Ulda (2009-05-20)

Oh man, please keep seeding, I friggen love the Secret of Evermore, Secret of Mana, and the Sword of Mana music.

Been looking for SO2 OST for a long time. Thank you.

I know this torrent is a bit old, but could we get some seeding up in here? This beats tracking down each OST individually.
