Reception

The soundtrack would receive mixed reviews from gaming critics. Unfortunately these critics miss state Kageyama as composer. Due to the North America packaging only listing Kageyama responsible for the music, "Music by Hironobu Kageyama". Sites like Gamer 2.0 and IGN would give the tracks low scores.^[2] with IGN's Greg Miller calling the music repetitive.^[3] While other sites such as the Gamer Temple and Game Radar site the music as the only good part the game has to offer^[4] with Game Radar's Alan Kim stating to "download the tunes and skip everything else".^[5] Ben Dutka of PSXExtreme found the music to be disconcerting citing that the atmosphere gave the impression that it was mocking the game.^[6]
