Three Music Options?
So upon starting a new game I noticed that there are 3 different options for the music in the game. Does anybody know what this does?

Original uses the PS2 original soundtrack: Emulates its soundchip so it will sound "older".
Reorchestrated uses a new version reorchestrated for this game: Same as above but made for the PS4, it sounds much crispier and cleaner.
OST uses the original soundtrack discs as in game music: Higher quality than the other two, some tracks use a diferent instrumentalization.

All 3 have diferences, tho, for someone who is not familiar with this game OST, they will basically be the same aside the clear diference between PS2 and the other 2.

I personally run the reorchestrated version.

I still own the PS2 copy of the game so I am fairly familiar with the old PS2 sound. I might run the OST as this would pretty much be a fresh start for me. Thanks.

The reorchestrated version was really hit and miss for me. Some of the changes were better, but a lot of it is just annoying. I'd go with the original or OST; both are great. OST is pretty much the same as the original with more strings and better percussion, while the reorchestrated sometimes goes out of its way to change notes.

Yeah I would find that annoying too, coming from the PS2 Version.
