i miss him. his music for the FFs was amazing pieces of art. i doubt anyone will be able to match his music efficiently. for me, losing him was a serious blow to the people at square enix.

Ya Rly

I could just tell something was missing from FFXII. The only song i liked from FFX-2 was memory of lightwaves. The best ff songs were from FFVII, VIII and X. And FFV coz it has battle with gilgamesh in it

All of these were made by Uematsu remember. I hope he makes a comeback in furute games

Somnus IS admittedly really heartfelt and emotional....i love it

Whenever I hear some tracks, straight away I feel my emotions coming through, and a certain magic with Nobuo's work is felt. I don't know how to put it in words. Best remedy for you realy is to remind yourself what his compositions sounded like. Then compare it to some of the more recent installments which lack the magical, catchy qualities and have mostly bland tracks...

To put it short Final Fantasy music went from brilliant (music that stood out and could bring tears to even the toughest mens eyes) all the way down to music out of any other game.. Music that fades int he background and you don't realy listen to...

I certainly wouldn't pick up Crisis Core PURELY to listen to the music... Whereas I found myself doing that several times on FF1-10... Sad I know.. I've conquered that by downloading the soundtracks and several remixes.

Yea the music was awesome he did many, great example all FF game from 1 - 10, and FFXII had pretty much bad music so yea we need Nobuo Umatsu D:

I can't pinpoint a favourite. One Winged Angel is good, but theres something I like in most, if not all of his tracks. I can't get enough of it.

Terra's theme, Cid's theme, Your'e Not Alone... All of it is just beautiful.

Speaking of Nobuo, even though he resigned from SE, isn't he still composing the music for the upcoming FF13?

That's what i read in Wikipedia actually... So looks like Nobuo is still doing his work on the FF games...

I'm not sure. He owns his own company called Smile Please now, and produces music for various companies. So it's not impossible for us to see him again.

Still, I think he is still pretty much in a Final Fantasy frame of mind, down to his work in the band The Black Mages. I wouldn't say we have lost him completely, I just wish he'd decide to do a few more soundtracks fast before FF goes musically out of control.
