I really hope there'll finally be track-by-track credit details published for DMC2.

Hmm... A compilation similar to the biohazard Sound Chronicle BEST TRACK BOX(es)? I think I'll pass on this one, though I too hope we get track-by-track composition credits for 2, they would be incomplete, but always better than nothing.

I just realized these are not full soundtracks. Some really good tracks are omitted, e.g. from DMC2: Eye Of The Wind (Lower Town), Eye Of The Wind (Uppertown), Mysterious Ruins (Dante Ruins).

2.06 A Prayer For Goddes (Lucia 戦闘2) is erroneous again.

Yeah, this thing is a potential waste of money for anyone which already has the soundtracks.

It seems a pretty decent selection for those new to the series, though.

Actually the selections look pretty awful. Especially for the original Devil May Cry, which remains my favourite soundtrack in the series. Why miss out most of the excellent stage themes? I like the idea of a condensed box set, as the series' soundtracks (especially 3) have way too many boring event themes. But this doesn't look like the way to do it.

I'm actually wondering why they even released this when they've pretty much given the middle finger to the original series and are trying to start fresh with the reboot DMC.

Heh, opinions.

I like the way they handled this release's tracklists, overall. The recognizable themes are there. It's good enough for someone who doesn't know about the "original" saga.
