Alright I've seen some threads for favorite Boss Themes, FInal Boss themes, character themes and whatnot, but how about your favorite "Tough Boss Themes" as I like to refer to them, not the regular boss themes, but the tougher bosses (like Atma, X-Death i.e.). For me it'd have to be the Decisive Battle from Final Fantasy 5.

For me, it's the Dreadful Fight from FFIV. Fits the battle well, it does (but for some reason, gets me talkin' like Faris do!! 0_0 lol).

Me: Where does it say that?
John: Here where it was 240 minutes.
Me: Is that four hours?
John: Yeah, 60 X 4.
Me: Is that four hours, though?
John: ....They'll never take you back in school.

Most definitely "The Fierce Battle" from FFVI. That music had me pumped when I was fighting Atma Weapon and each of the three Statues. It is one of the best battle themes, IMO.

J-E-N-O-V-A all the way! It's the only one that sounds like it could have lyrics... say.. a vocal mix of Jenova... someone call Ailsean, he's needed! =^-^=

I'm sure I like Sword of Doubt the most, but as far as I know, the OST doesn't have a track labeled as such, so I'm at a loss for what it's really called. Tell me if you know it.

Besides that, if you count any of FFT's battle themes as "tough," I'd go with "Antidote," which plays when you save Olan.

The Decisive Battle theme from FFV (also known as Exdeath's Battle Theme). NOTHING has so far beat it, although Dancing Mad 4 has come close.

Atma's theme isn't exciting enough, and J-E-N-O-V-A suffers from a bad looping quality. FFIV's Fiend battle theme is cool, but not especially interesting.

I'd say it's a tie between "The Dreadful Fight" (FFIV) and "The Fierce Battle" (FFVI). Both of those always were awesome in my books.

The Decisive Battle (FFV) wins my vote. J-E-N-O-V-A (FFVII) comes as a close second, with The Fierce Battle (FFVI) brings up the rear.

I have to go with JENOVA < -- weird) Anyways it had a some sort of a techno theme in it much like that OC remixes. They kick. Also you heard it many times in the game and you know you were like ( awww sh&*) but the same time all angsty cause you know it's time to show then what you got and you were ready to use all the magic points you saved up for this battle. smile.gif

Sourd of Doubt and J-E-N-O-V-A are good they are my favorites for me why else would i have the OST's for both of these games?

I agree with Glenn Magus Harvey. The Decisive battle is pretty damn nice.. It has a pretty good beat. Second goes Atma's theme, and third is Jenova. Jenova isn't bad, but it sounded too "final bossey" with the way the tunes sound.

Not sure if it acutally counts, but Dancing Mad 4 is my favorite battle themes. Although the battle really isn't hard anymore. I've played it too much. Second favorite is J-E-N-O-V-A. Although its not the offical battle theme, the FF7 Piano Collection version is MUCH better. Maybe because I prefer a calmess to my chaos.
