So Xenoverse's main theme is a Metallica cover...
I still don't have the full game, so I'm not sure if this has changed, but during the beta Xenoverse's main theme is literally just Metallica's No Leaf Clover. Am I late to this party or is this new?
I mean, can we get anything original anymore?

Holy shit. I never noticed that.
I guess you can throw this into the Yamamoto rip off thread because, guess what, he composed this theme. Shocking isn't it?
And just to clarify, it wasn't made specially for the game, it was just a temporary stock track from long library of video game music composed by Yamamoto.
You should check out Xenoverse's official soundtrack though. It is fucking awesome!

The interesting thing is that the Xenoverse beta's main theme is just an unused song from Burst Limit's soundtrack:

After researching it a little, it seems that, for at least the beta, many of the tracks from Burst Limit were reused or used for the first time.DBZAOTA482 wrote:Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit Soundtrack #32:

Re: So Xenoverse's main theme is a Metallica cover...
I am beyond amazed that Yamamoto's music is being used anywhere anymore.
Surely these companies are aware of the scandal? Nobody should be touching his work with a ten-foot pole if they want to cover themselves in the longrun.

Maybe Yamamoto resigned his rights to his past work and Namco Bandai could use it for free. Also, considering that they did release a 3DS port of Super Butoden 2 with Yamamoto's music left as-is only in Japan, what they're afraid of must be being spotted by the original right holders in the West, so they might have thought a closed beta release would be still safe. There's a possibility that Dimps were just not aware of the risk and reused their old stuff from their library, though.AjayLikesGaming wrote:I am beyond amazed that Yamamoto's music is being used anywhere anymore.

Anyway, they should avoid any risk by shutting out any pieces of music composed by Yamamoto.
Re: So Xenoverse's main theme is a Metallica cover...
I'm not sure the Super Butouden 2 re-release means anything... I've seen other games where well-known music rights issues weren't a problem for emulated re-releases like the Virtual Console. Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has some rather infamous rights issues, but the only time the music was changed was when they actually ported the code to PC instead of emulating it.

There's not a single track in the release of Xenoverse that is from Yamamoto, Dimps only used his score in the network test and replaced it with the correct score once the game was released, however the yamamoto files from the network test are still in the game files.
There's room for only one snake, and one big boss.

This was from the network test. Every version has HEAD CHA-LA for the final release."during the beta Xenoverse's main theme is literally just Metallica's No Leaf Clover"
