What's here is great...

"...but a lot of the game's music didn't make the jump to the CD. Missing are
the songs that play in the Bullworth cliques' hideouts, the tunes from the
stores and arcade games, and the more ambient themes, like the locker-picking
song. I'm especially disappointed the tunes from "The Final Cut" and the
Preppies' and Townies' hideouts weren't included.
Still, the tracks that are here are improved, somewhat extended versions of
what you'll hear on your PS2. Overall, it's a worthwhile purchase."
Awesome Soundtrack

"The music of this game is so different than most other games, that it distinguishes itself in many ways. It is highly original, it's a mix between modern pop and old time Jazz. This is one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard."
A Great Soundtrack (Too Bad It's Not Complete)

"I like this album. I like it so much in fact that since I got it a few days ago it's been all I've been listening to.
When I got the video game last year, I fell in love with the atmospheric, haunting, catchy, soundtrack that accompanied it. The music really completes the gaming experience. And this soundtrack album has many (but not all) of the songs from the game, that if you are a fan of the game as I am, let you relive the fun all over again. Plus, it makes great background music for reading or studying to ( a true to school sound). Some of the songs are jazzy, some remind me of 90's techno, some are very rock inspired (especially 1950's influenced rock), some very great mood music, and the great title theme which a friend remarked to me sounds like it came out of Harry Potter.
The only sad thing, is that a lot of my most favorite songs didn't make the cut to this CD, especially the great songs from the various hideouts and the great video game songs.
Still, I'm glad this CD was released. It's a lot of fun, especially if you're a big fan of the game, or if you'd like a collection of varied and interesting intrumental music with a lot of vibes and atmosphere."
