One such project that never saw the light of day was a Final Fantasy franchise entry titled "Fortress," which we got a peek at not long after we learned of Grin's closure. And now we're able to hear some music sampled from the game as well, as former music director Erik Thunberg dropped one such track on his portfolio website.<br /><br />So, uh, you may wanna line up <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2009/08/20/grins-unreleased-masterpiece-was-a-final-fantasy-game-codenam/">these shots</a> of the game with the music playing in another tab, to try and recreate the feeling of the Western-born Final Fantasy game that never was.
