I'm not a huge fan of Halo and it's music just some information I was passing along. However seemingly in my opinion I feel as much effort went into Halo and it's booming success of that effort more resources should have been used for a unique soundtrack. Argue in point is that no sort of slim comparison should even surface such as this... just my thoughts. Wow, very nice input there.

Pretty much all of Halo 2's tracks are just remixes/reworkings of old Halo tracks. I work with a lot of Halo music and knew instantly how unfounded this claim was. "Peril", the third track on Volume One of the Halo 2 soundtrack is just a reworking of "Perilous Journey", track 5 on the original Halo OST. Go and listen to the song, (There are many legal and illegal ways) and you will know right away where the music came from. In fact, go here (http://tinyurl.com/jsov3), it's the amazon listing and listen to the track. The sample is from the middle of the song so it isn't exactly the part I want you to hear, but you will definitely note that THIS music is what went into Peril, not Summit. BTW, the only "similar" part between Peril and Summit is the beginning and if you listen to Perilous Journey, you will realize that Peril is just a slightly fast and more "modern" version of Perilous Journey. Its quite obvious that there was no plagiarism, or if you want to accuse someone, it's Summit that stole from Perilous Journey, but even that is ridiculous. I will advise you to be more careful when making claims like these because people are easily mislead, and while controversy is a good thing, false accusations are not. So yeah. Perilous Journey came FIRST in 2001 and Peril is just a reowrking of that song. No one copied Summit and if anything, it came after Perilous Journey.
