I hope I'm not the only one who's hoping for this. The last two remasters did such a beautiful job with the music that it was a real shame that not every game in the collection got the same treatment. Seeing as how the volume is different content-wise, I am personally hoping that there is room to re-orchestrate the music for all three tracks. I mean 0.2 is entirely new, so newly made music is most certainly assured, and I think there is a heavy chance of new music content for X Back Cover as well. X only has three scores of it's own, so I would hope that they make at least a few new tracks to flesh it out, and it would also provide more music for III to use in the future. My real main concern here is for Dream Drop Distance. The soundtrack is already beautiful in it's own right, so I would be exited to know if they were to re-orchestrate at least most of it. There's certainly quite a few pieces I'd love to hear vamped up, like Dread of Night and Deep Drop. But, considering how Birth by Sleep didn't have more than 2 tracks remastered and 3D is of a similar caliber to that game, I'm a little concerned that it might receive a similar treatment. But considering how it is sharing the same role as KH1 and KH2 as the face of it's remaster I would also expect it to get the most treatment content wise, being the only full game in the package. And since KH3 isn't anywhere near the music phase, I don't think it would be unreasonable to get Shimomura and the same orchestra who worked on the remasters before to orchestrate for this title in a year's time. There's some tracks that could definitely use replacement too, like the re-used tracks from previous titles should be replaced with their HD ReMIX equivalents (A Small Wish, Rowdy Rumble, etc.). What do you guys think? Do you think it has as good of a chance for full re-orchestration like KH1 and KH2, or will it get the short end of the music stick like BbS did?
