There is no piece of music in gaming, anime, or television that can match that of One Winged Angel. Only movies have an equal and that's Battle of the Heroes from Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
Someone hasn't played Streets or Rage or Shadow of the Colossus. I can't even pick one single track out of either, the whole soundtrack is awesome. "Time's Scar' from Chrono Cross is another great one that I put on an even level if not above "One Winged Angel."
Sephy's theme is just the far more famous song.

A friggin DBZ videogame gave the main villain a better theme than Sephiroth.
And Sonic music is God. That is true. Live and Learn to date is my favorite videogame song.
Well then it would seem we just have different tastes when it comes to music then because frankly I found the music in the DBZ games very boring and genetic. And anime is basically what every FPS is turning in to; the same piece of crap that you just went through only with a different character who looks just like another character from an FPS with a story that is laughable and half the time they're telling you that war is bad but instead of doing something about it you are sent out to kill even more until everyone is dead besides you and thus you cannot possibly have anymore wars until the next uninspired sequel (Gundam anyone?).

The best game that has the best music has always been the Sonic games (lately it's been horrible gameplay but the music is still amazing) but there is no track in any God of War game that can be compared to One Winged Angel.Yes Sephiroth is overrated and I believe he and Cloud hit it off like two gay howler monkeys in a hot summer day because no straight guy would be thinking about Sephiroth when Tifa and Aerith are basically giving themselves to you; but the song is without a doubt a masterpiece that God of War fails to match.
The Minotaur boss fight alone had a more frighteningly enticing song than One Wiged Angel had ever been for me. The only reasons One-Winged Angel ever has any kind of epicness to it is because of the cicumstances of the scene which is how it became memorable. In that sense, it kind of is overrated. When actually listening to the songs outside of the game, God of War's soundtrack has been considered Triple A film material (not CG fanservice film material), whereas One Winged Angel really is just a typical RPG tune that just so happens to have been remixed like twice, even though only one remix is any good. No offense, but the way you decribe it just proves how overrated One Winged Angel really is.
Even Metal Gear Solid has better music than what FFVII ever offered (in termso f being good music, not a memorable theme song). It doesn't take an ominous tune and repetitious latin lyrics to make a theme song epic. Almost any of God of War's songs could've been used as music for a final boss anywhere else.
Not to mention Crisis Core's recent remix of One Winged Angel practically butchered the song.
As for Sonic games, the only song that had consitently pissed me off was Zebrahead's lyrical version of "His World" (the instrumental version's good though, they were smart to have put that one in Brawl).

Im still waiting on what Kratos can do against NL, or Sephiroth willpower, speed, etc, all people have stated is who Kratos beat, sorry but thats all PIS involved, just like how link beats ganon all the time, and how cloud beat sephiroth.
In a real fight we judge by the powers, strength, etc..

His fight against Persephone was not PIS, nor were the Sisters of Fate or any of the Greek heroes or mythical beasts he killed (unless you count a bridge or a mast as PIS, but I just see it as taking advantage of the envrionment). Ares was his only real PIS battle.

Originally posted by Terryc250But we don't know how it would function in a fight. Willpower? What would that do? And Kratos is the guy who literally fought his way out of Hades. Easy, Atlas Quake, Zeus' Lightning, Cronos' Rage, AOE spells like that. What are Kratos' strength feats? How about tossing a 200 foot tall moving metal Collossus when it tried to step on him?
But we do know the powers of the lifestream, just because we never seen it in action doesn't mean it doesn't exist, yes willpower. What "spells" can he do against Sephiroths speed? Sephiroth speed is basically instant, as is his teleportation, what is Kratos strength feats anyway?
In the side story of Denzel, when the lifestream came to destroy meteor, Denzels mom was exposed to the tainted lifestream of Sephiroth, she died instantly, when Sephiroth fell into the lifestream, his body was completely destroyed, the lifestream is not harmless.. also keep in mind that the negative lifestream is tainted with J-cells and can infect beings with geostigma.
What can Sephiroths willpower do? Well it held Holy still for months, Holy is the antithesis of Meteor, and was stated to beable to destroy everything on the planet, not even that could escape it.
power is nothing to do with it, something hard to hold would be something heavy, fast moving etc etc thats something hard to hold, Holy was just seeminly plucked out of the air by willpower, the things made of energy so it has an unkown weight and it wasnt doing anything apart from moving was it not towards it location? so no it would not necessarily be hard to hold, more likely the opposite considering its energy body
what other fiction have you seen that makes you think that something powerful is hard to hold, a non living thing of unkown weght and resistence?
Also a nuclear bombs explosion is completly diffrent to holy, a nuclear bomb is a constant force blastwave once it goes off, we "know" it would be difficult to hold, but Holy isnt giving off a constant blast wave.

2. Kay. And Willpower, like Holy, is an abstract thing, so we do not know if it can even function physically.
