As a user there I can tell you that RateYourMusic is full of BS entries. People add GAME RIPS as albums. I've complained but rarely get heard.

I don't use RYM as a source unless the changelog shows definite proof of an item existing.

I really wish it was legit (good game and soundtrack) but it's not. There's a NCSF rip out there for it and that page is just a documentation of the gamerip.

Also front cover is obviously fan made, it's a picture of game's cover art with "The Original Soundtrack" slapped on it.

I asked virt (I'll let you know if he replies), but agreed with you guys that it looks like a game rip.

I was looking for the soundtrack, as normally Jake always releases his soundtracks. And that was the only thing that I came up with.
I was expecting RateYourMusic to be something of rating your music of Official released albums and such. Ain't see that coming.

The big problem is that anyone could submit a new entry without moderation in the past, so fake entries were added and not be noticed by a moderator for a long time. It's not like here, where the admin and users can see something that's not quite right and point it out in the forums. At least -here- the admins pay attention to our comments since it's a much smaller site.

Jake doesn't own the rights to this. Talked to him about officially releasing it a month or two back, so I know it was never officially released.

Thanks for contacting the composer. I'll deactivate this entry since it's not official.
