Question about these Mega Man soundtracks

http://www.vgmworld.com/catalog/index.php?table=cocoebiz_music&item_num=1364

at this site they will be releasing Mega Man 7 and 8 soundtracks. I already have them due to various file sharing, etc. and am satisfied with the sound quality I have… however I was wondering if you guys thought these cd’s would even sound BETTER than what’s on the net and if you thought they would be worth getting even as "keepsakes"; Mega Man 7 is one of my favorites of all time. I wasn’t that thrilled with 8 but am thinking it may be best to get BOTH and just support this "effort" in the off chance they may even release more of these older titles.

Better quality, probably. Keepsakes? Hardly. Megaman music isn’t rare enough to really be considered keepsakes. It’ll be interesting to see which version of 8 Capcom releases. But what I’m more interested in is the planned remixes by Capcom for 1-6. I’m not sure if it’s all the games, or just a best of mix. Damn, I need a cool Pharaohman remix.

Keepsake = something of sentimental value; it has nothing to do with dollar value or it being rare, this music means a lot to me and I’ve always wished for FULL soundtracks of it but am not sure if it would be worth the plunge; after shipping, etc these get pricy.

btw, I’ve already got an email in to them asking about 8. According to their site it says SNES but I think it’ just a copy and paste from the 7 description… when they let me know Saturn or PS I’ll post it here.

Ah, when you put it that way, I can’t disagree with you then. For sentimentality purposes, then I’d agree that it could be a keepsake. For me it isn’t, because Megaman music isn’t that important, it’s just good random listening. Sadly, amongst all my music, I can’t say I have anything I’d consider a keepsake. I’d have to go with DVDs instead to compare to this topic. I tend to buy DVDs sometimes just for the sake of having something specific, even if it doesn’t get watched.

For the record, I’d be happy with the Saturn version (due to Cutman & Woodman, I’d guess), and the final track could be a ‘bonus’ track: Tenguman PS version, or something like that. Guess we’ll know soon.

It’s the PS1 version.
