Soundtrack

The games music is composed by Hideyuki Fukasawa and Jamie Christopherson. Hideyuki Fukasawa did most of the in-game music and soundtracks. He also worked on the music of Chaos Legion (Game) and it shows as there are quite a few similarities. Jamie Christopherson on the other hand worked on the CG cut scenes and FMV's Hollywood-style orchestral scores. The type of music in this game is quite different to any other in the series as more electronic tones are used. Ayumi Hamasaki (Person) the famous Japanese pop singer has two of her songs in the game "Startin'" and "Rainy Day" for the opening and ending themes for the game. However if played on the normal English setting this will not be heard, but the player can select the Japanese language from the options menu and it will play identically to the Japanese version of the game.
