For me, music is one of the core components that contributes to the enjoyment, and engagement, of a video game title, and this episode is our latest deep dive into some of the classic soundtracks from those games.  In today's episode, we'll look specifically at the music, and story, of Final Fantasy X, as I'm joined by our resident FFX sponsor, Iso!  

This one is a little bit different from our standard Sounds of the Classics episodes, in that we'll be diving really deep into the story and lore of Final Fantasy X, so if you haven't played that particular epic title yet, be warned - there will be spoilers here.  For those who have experienced the game before, though, this will hopefully be a comforting return to the world of Spira, as we listen to a bunch of songs, and discuss the amazing narrative, of Final Fantasy X.
