Default Official Soundtrack (Please?)

I wondered if there was any chance of there being an official release of the soundtrack to the game once it's finished.

In any case, I also wonder if anyone hase put together a chronological tracklist of the music files from the game as extracted using the Telltale Music Extractor.

Default Would you buy the soundtrack?

If after every episode of the game was released, Telltale and/or Universal decided to release a soundtrack for the game, would you buy it?

To be fair, I wouldn't. I'm not really impressed by the score of this game, all that plays is the same tune of the movies, sometimes sped up and sometimes down. And well, Huey Lewis. I believe it fits more as we listen to them as we see something happening. I wouldn't really put them on my playlist and just listen to them in my spare time, except for Huey Lewis songs.

Maybe. But, like Falanca, probably not. It's a lot of the music I already have, and there hasn't really been a track that's stood out in my mind. Plus, there are tools to extract the music anyways...

Not to be nitpicky but it wouldnt be a soundtrack, more of a score. The only song which has been featured is back in time.

The scores of any thing is generally still referred to as a soundtrack.

Ehhhhh.

I love game soundtracks in general, but nothing in this game so far has jumped out at me as must-have.

Am I the only one who thinks the melody of Trixie's "Fun" song sounds a lot like "Here Comes Santa Claus?"

Mark me down for a no. I just can't see myself listening to this on it's own.

No. It just doesn't compare to the greatness of Sam & Max or Monkey Island.

I believe that since ToMI, TellTale never released any more soundtracks of their games. I imagine this is because of lack of time or that the soundtracks they actually released didn't sell as well as they expected. So I find it unlikely that they'll release anymore soundtracks in the future.

I'm still waiting for a Tales soundtrack!

LucasArts owns the music rights to the new music written for Tales, not us, so it's not our call to make a soundtrack for that game.

Oh hey, so they are using genuine period music? That's cool to know. I was kind of hoping that the courthouse square reveal scene in the first episode would have been accompanied by a period song, but this is cool too.

Oh, it's an actual song from the period? Well, that just shows how ignorant I am! Thanks for clarifying.
