Former SS2 Dev releases the Soundtrack for SS2

A few forums are discussing the System Shock 2 soundtrack, which has apparently been liberated by a former SS2 developer. I wouldn't normally trust something uploaded to megaupload but quite a few people have already tried it and reported the file safe and authentic. Here's the original post at the TTLG forums:

    After seeing so many fan interpretations of the SS2 soundtrack I figured I would upload the real soundtrack ... real as in "ripped from a CD that Eric Brosius burned."

    What differences are there from the existing SS2 Soundtrack versions out there?

    1) These are the real arrangements created by Eric himself, authored as full soundtrack songs and burned as an album. It's not a fan interpretation or anything else short of the real songs from the real composer.

    2) This was personally crafted by Eric Brosius from the original audio, meaning that unlike the 22khz audio files from the shipping game this release is CD quality.

    3) The audio quality is much higher than what's out there; I've ripped this from the original CD and have encoded it at 320 q0 mp3.

    Basically, this is not only the best quality version of the soundtrack, it's the version of the soundtrack that Eric Brosius himself created. It's not a fan compilation; this is the real deal.

    And in case you have any doubt, remember that I'm the one who also posted the real Thief: Deadly Shadows soundtrack here.


    Enjoy!

Yo guys -- can we merge this actual thread w/ the SS2 Mods/Upgrade thread?

Makes sense to put all the SS2 stuff in one thread.

Awesome.  I'm so downloading that.

Also, I'll leave this thread up for a little while since it's sort of new news and stuff that a headline seems relevant enough for.  And with Bioshock coming out and all.  I'll merge it later maybe once it's had its run.

Sounds good to me, Que.

Hope you like the Soundtrack.
