In all realism, this won't hold a candle to those people that are not fans of both, since most of the time people that have never been gamers don't acknowledge the fact that there is amazing music scored with games. Anyhow, regarding "videogaming's most legendary composer", I give you A Day in the Life of Nobuo UematsuIt's quite a long read, but

it answer pretty much all of the questions you would want to know about him and his music. it rules.

Tell me what video game music he did plz!

[haikubandit]

Famously, he would be known for the scores in the Final Fantasy games. One of the founders in orchestrating real music scores into games. He's totally my hero.

He also did the kick ass soundtrack to Blue Dragon.

Oh I know, I'm currently playing it. I can't pass up a game made by the creators of Chrono Trigger.

ROCK THE FUCK ON, DANIEL!

Nobuo Uematsu is to video gaming what Danny Elfman is to Tim Burton.

Honestly, he's the only game music composer I know off the top of my head, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE his scores!

I HATE Danny Elfman!

[oilpainter]

BUT HE LOVES YOU!

I'm glad that you agree, but I'd say that nobuo blows away danny elfman. I might hit too hard saying this, but I think Tim Burton's pretty overrated too.

...oops... I realized I may have started a fight with that last statement...
