A video game score of Epic proportions... |

If it is one thing that the Japanese do well, it is construct video games. The Ace Combat series is long hailed as the best Flight game around. And among many purists, Ace Combat Zero is considered the best of the best. The voice acting is well done, the game engine is perfect, the graphics are good. And then there is the music....
In many games, music is an afterthought. But not here. The music of Ace Combat Zero is really stand out. I will admit that there are a lot of "throwaway" tracks. Things that are needed for loading screens, shop music, filler - and this album has them. But it also has something else. On several tracks there is a lovely Spanish guitar that would make Antonio Segovia cry in its beauty.
Those tracks are:
Juggernaut
The Round Table
The Demon of the Round Table
Zero
Epilogue -Near the Border-
As some would put it, "They are EPIC tracks".
Other memorable tracks that do not feature the guitar include:
Glacial Skies
Excalibur
Valley of Kings
Avalon
These tracks are from other missions that you play throughout the game.
As a test of this soundtrack's power, I played a few of the tracks for my father. He loved them and wanted more and was very surprised to learn that the songs were from a video game. It goes to show that great music can come from anywhere. And this one, despite its name, is Definitely not a Zero, but a soundtrack worth adding to your favorites.
