Song Comments:
Dark Chronicle aka Dark Cloud 2 in the U.S. might have a very calm and soothing soundtrack overall, but this boss battle theme shows the different side of the medal. It's too bad you only hear it once while defending your train against the first antagonist, who attacks it with a buggy. I ranked this low because it is quite repetitive and doesn't develop much, but I actually really like this tune.

Game Comments:
To be quite honest, Dark Chronicle is tied with Persona 3 as my favorite game on the PS2, and among my five favorite games of all time. The atmosphere and the soundtrack were just amazing, and the sheer amount of things you could do blew me away. Catch and raise fish, invent new items and tinker with your mech, play a variant of golf, build villages, explore the dungeons and fight enemies in challenging, but fair battles - this game had tons of stuff you could do, and everything worked great. A true masterpiece.
