Hi guys!

I guess many of you are looking for LIGHTNING RETURNS: FINAL FANTASY XIII PRE-SOUNDTRACK and I finally got my hands on it. It's not the best quality but it's doable. I think the quality is 256 rather than the standard 320! Of course, I'm looking for the physical copy of it too but I guess I'll wait for the actual soundtrack, yeah?

I'll upload more mirrors if people want more alternatives; for now I can only do one place and it should suffice... for now.

Enjoy! ^_^v

Tracklist (frm vgmdb.net)
01. Crimson Blitz
02. The Savior
03. Lightning Returns
04. LIGHTNING RETURNS:FINAL FANTASY XIII BGM04
05. LIGHTNING RETURNS:FINAL FANTASY XIII BGM05
06. LIGHTNING RETURNS:FINAL FANTASY XIII BGM06

Many thanks for the share.

very nice, thanks for this post :)

So you found this, or own it? .. Hard to tell when you say "Got my HANDS on it."

OP said it's looking for a physical copy, so no, doesn't own it. And this is most probably from here (http://forums.ffshrine.org/f70/lightning-returns-final-fantasy-xiii-pre-soundtrack-137065/#post2404796), just zipped. Plus, his signature.

I'll wait for the FLAC rip, the guy on the other thread just says "Here in mp3 format", there are so many transcodes from YouTube these days and newbies usually post them here, so I can't be confident this isn't the case.

Thanks!!!!! Masashi Hamauzu's TRACK 04 is wonderful.

Easy: download it, and check if it is. That way you put a red flag so that savvy users ignore it.

Awesome!!! Thanks for share~~~

Thank you! :D

FLAC / Log (100%) / Cue > Possible Youtube transcode :D

Well, of course. There's no comparison/competition there. =P

I was curious, so I downloaded this, and it appears some of the tracks are transcoded - at least the ones exclusive to this release. Bitrates fluctuate from 128 (T03), 256 (T01, 04-06), and 320kbps (T02).

Thank you :)

When they do the actual ost... you know what I mean, do the whole kaboodle XD

WTF are you saying, he is sharing soundtracks all days, sharing goodies and furthermore what he is saying is the reality, this is a transcode so its shitty. �Whats the problem then? Seriously, buy a brain.

The Topic Opener,posted this PRE-Soundtrack.If you dont like it,WHY are you here?Realy,why?To tell him,how "shitty" it is?Yeah,way to go.Thats how to make people want to share more!

You got him completely wrong so thats why I told you to buy a brain. Its not that hard to understand, people were questioning about the QUALITY and if it was a transcode from Youtube etc. And Boss told that yep, some tracks were transcoded putting an explanation and Vegeta made the conclusion the release was transcode <-> So was sounding bad (If you dont know what a transcode is seach in Google and now imagine a rip of a rip of a rip and then uploaded here) but he never said the uploader nothing bad, if its a transcode its a transcode. If is sounding shitty because its a transcode, its the reality. No one here told the uploader anything besides THANKS.

There is a difference between saying "fuck the uploader, dont upload that shit here" and "the upload is shitty because its a transcode"

Anyways, im tired of this so think what you want, I wont care right this moment.

I concur with Teddyb3ar.

I'm an idiot, but yet you failed to read properly?

This is exactly what I was pointing out. Also a lesson to those, If you take an MP3 that was put on youtube, then later on another person rips that youtube video into an MP3 .. that just destroys the quality even further.

I got invited into what.cd not because of an invite from a friend.. I passed the interview.. not many people can say they have done that. You have to know quite a bit about audio files, and transcodes in order to get in by the interview.
