I think I noticed some of these tracks in the rips. From memory I think outpost ambient is one.
Tsch�ss.
For egggsss : the songs Kevin Riepl put on his site aren’t used in the game since he didn’t compose the soundtrack.
He explains he made them before knowing Jablonski was selected for the job. He seems pretty pissed about it.
edit : I think your links have been deleted, Alpha.
I’m pretty pissed too, I like Jablonski’s work but I loved the GOW1 ost.
…Unfortunately
Not to say Jablonsky did a bad job though.

not THAT bad 😉 what about tracks "Armored Prayer" and "With Sympathy"? I am pretty sure they’re awesome!
Absolutely (Hope runs deep being the other main standout for me), he knows how to make epic score sound very huge.
Did it suit Gears? Yeah it did!
But listening to Riepl’s work, I felt the horror and whilst the tracks wern’t as big they felt more raw and genuinely intense. ie. Tomb of the unknowns, Train Wreck – Locust theme.
I’m hailing Riepl’s work as a masterpiece not criticising Jablonsky.
I think they had different visions for the game and I think Riepl’s was more in keeping with the story, characters and setting.
Thanks
Leviathan seems to be the only theme without an action track which is confusing as it was a huge boss!
I don’t usually do this but please Alpha23, delete this kevinriepl.com gears of war 2 related stuff!
