Love it. Never heard of the game, but love it.

I don't really remember this song when I listened to this soundtrack last year (no wonder since there are so many songs on that soundtrack). You are right about it, Gabe. I can definitely tell the similarities to the music from the DMC series.

I've only beaten Ragu in Wild Arms 3 and 4, never finished Alter Code F or 5 yet. It takes like 6+ hours to reach him down in the abyss in WA3, with no saves... I was lucky I had no power outages/disconnects.

Wild Arms 5's soundtrack is awesomely varied thanks to a list of great composers who each have their own style. This track by Kouda in particular is completely different from anything else in the game. I wasn't fan of it at first, but this chaotic/powerful boss theme quickly grew on me. Kouda composed the music for the Devil May Cry games and you can hear some similarities, probably on purpose since this is the theme for the hardest boss in the game (by far), Ragu o Ragula, the recurring secret boss of the Wild Arms series. I wasn't even close to beating it in WA5, his signature attack "One Trillion Degrees" basically wiped me out instantly. Very fitting theme.

I don't have as much time as I'd like to since I've started working, but it's still my main hobby when I'm home. I barely watch TV (except to watch some sports!), so that saves a lot of time. I do watch movies though and some series (Breaking Bad being my favorite, and I'm now looking forward to the new Game of Thrones season). I go through 1 or 2 anime series a year, but haven't read mangas in a very long while. I think we all wish we had more free time, the hardest part is to stray away from procrastinating on the internet :)

@SupraDarky Yeah, YouTube is my biggest enemy. I have so many things to do, and games on average take 20 hours to win...
