Pre-Order Ys, Get Cd

yscd.jpg

Legacy of Ys: Books I & II is heading for the Nintendo DS on February 10, and I know a lot of old-school RPG fans are probably pretty excited about the remastering of this videogame classic. (Or they're outraged... but probably excited.) In the interest of providing the best fanservice they can, Atlus has just announced that a soundtrack CD will be offered as a pre-order bonus at select retailers.

Epic in melody and arrangement, the Ys Books I & II soundtrack has long been considered one of the greatest video same scores ever created. Originally released in an era when many games used music simply to avoid stretches of silence, Ys offered a sweeping emotional score, building on action and tension to provide players with an altogether potent experience. As relevant today as ever, the freshly arranged music CD still manages the same level of excitement and energy, and stand as a testament to true excellence in game music.

Or so the press release says, anyway. They've got a website set up where you can sample some of the tracks, and to be honest, they are pretty awesome, in that old-school kind of way. It actually makes me want to go dig out the soundtrack that came in my Lunar collectors edition. Oh, and as for the "select retailers," GameStop is definitely one of them. So make sure you check other stores before putting down your pre-order cash!

And girls who like girls who like rumble packs!
