    If I don’t get wrong, The Korean version of GG was because the singer of the band (rip) like the game and he offered to Arcsy to do a song, and Arcsy simultaneously wanted to promote/sell the game in Korea and that band was big in there, they saw that opportunity as a blessing and told him to do an entire album if he wanted.

    One thing not a lot of people mention about SF6's character select music is that the song is dynamic. The first third of the song plays during stage select, then the next third plays during character select, and then the chorus goes full blast during the walkout screen. Not a lot of fighting games that I know of do that.

    Blazblue Calamity Trigger's _Blue Beating_ is such an _interesting_ song. Blazblue itself is this bizarre hodgepodge of genres and styles that just work together; in essence, it is a magic cyborg samurai anime rock opera, and its music goes the extra length to encapsulate all of that. The title music of Calamity Trigger basically sounds like an orchestra warming up, leading into its main menu music which sounds like a very withdrawn prelude. By the time you reach _Blue Beating_ , the harpsichord and the orchestra reach a peak before it transitions into rock, and everything just folds together into a cohesive whole.

    Blazblue is the only FG franchise if you asked me what my favorite character select theme in the franchise, I'd probably say *all of the above.* Blue Beating (CT & CS), Proof of the Warrior (CP), and Next Force (CF) are all bangers in their own right IMO.

    Soul Calibur 2 holds a special place in my heart. Growing up, I had the Xbox version of the game, but family ended up selling it cuz we needed money at the time. A couple years later, I got the PS2 version, unaware that each version had different guest characters, but a few years later, we went to a fancy mall that was an hour away from our home, & I found a retro game store that had the Xbox version for cheap. When the 10th anniversary version came out, I was in middle school & got it for christmas the year it came out. Soul Calibur is & always will be my favorite fighting game of all time
