The instruments needed for a lot of Marty's staggering musical score is something you can't just reproduce using an orchestra

And not just that, a second piece of music that i have now listened to from some E3 video, it's clearly NOT very much in keeping with the original strands of melody- they are still there but now joined by additions that really only seem put there because, well it's an orchestra. I'll just have to get used to it obviously but i hope Marty points out they are wrecking what is already perfect

I don't mind there being an orchestra but with what iv'e heard most recently regards to these silly flute additions and wondering how you can possibly reproduce these synth sounds in the first place, well it's all a bit disapointing

Wont know until i play it but i'm not that hopefull. The trouble with bringing in an orchestra to supposedly make Marty's music 'richer' is it ends up just sounding all hollywood. Marty's music always sounded so much more unique than that. I'll give it a chance but it's quite a big dropping of the ball in my book
