Genial! Realmente espectacular el tema del "scene 20", años buscándolo.... Muchas gracias!

When people ask me what my favourite video game is, they assume it will be FF7 or one of the Zelda games - they never expect me to say Koudelka (though I do love the previous games mentioned). Tbh, most have never even heard of Koudelka. It's a gothic delight, with a dark atmosphere which is reflected in the music. The game is the prequel to the Shadow Hearts games - which is more well known than the prequel game.

Fort there is a series to the game, it's called shadow hearts.

@fort: the series goes on with "Shadow Hearts" and "Shadow Hearts 2 Covenant"

One of ther best game EVER!!!!

I love this music, and shame that they haven't make a series of this game...

A true masterpiece in every sense of the word. Battle music may not be very "horror" but it is a beautiful composition which makes a wonderful change from the usual in horror RPG's. Hiroki Kikuta is a genius.

The battle music, especially "05 Incantation Again" really grew on me as I played the game. It is much different than most combat related game music in which it's smooth and has a calming rhythm that made the difficult battle system in the game tolerable.

The "live" versions on this album are also a cool aspect to the game now that I've long since completed it. It put a new spin on music I thought was awesome, I really liked it.

Koudelka was generally unpopular, yet however ecclectic the game and this were, I personally love it. The "Live" songs are particularly interesting.

A lot of hard core gamers dissed this soundtrack because it wasn't gaudy or loud or violent, but the sheer smoothness of it, the rhythmic patterns were a welcome change from the usual. I am a hardcore gamer also, but just for its uniqueness, this one is a complete winner.
