What music are you listening while playing your game?

No music while playing games.It takes away my concentration.

Umm only sometimes when the game in itself is really bad musically I listen to few of my favourite hindi songs.

I usually don't listen to music while playing, unless the game's music is very poor. When I do, I usually like to hear my favorite bands: Stratovarius, Helloween, Rhapsody, Blind Guardian.

I listen to the game music, what else? hehe.. Some games do have very good music..

I only listen to other music when I'm playing a game that doesn't have any music (meaning I burned it wrong ) or a game that needs a different type of music.

as for rpgs i dont listen to music while playing(lots of rpgs music is half the game)but for a game like tony 3 when i play on epsxe i turn off the in game music and slap some of my own in (mostly rap but also punk )the kind of music i like is eazye mc ren older rap and punk bands like NOFX!!!!!!!!

I listen to the game music.

While I playing Unreal Tournament.
Sometime I turn off game music.
And I play my local music by winamp

All type of music...........
Pop rock hardcore softcore metal in thai even other game music(eg.Metal Gear Solid ).

What I listen to depends on the game... for games like FF9, I'll listen to the in-game music 'cuz it's so darn good. For games like Unreal Tournament, I listen to hardcore, fast-paced music that makes me wanna kill somethin, which I guess is the idea. A good example is System of a Down.

Unless I'm leveling or something, I always listen to the music in the actual game.

Oops, just thought of a game I always listen to other music in (Diablo 2). When I'm playing Diablo 2, I listen to a couple different songs, but the one I go to more often than not is the RoLW TV OP. I don't know why, but it goes really well with demon slaying.

Man, I can see that people use to listen to quality music. I don't know why, but when playing some game, if not listening to the game's song, I put some Dream Theater, specially their last album 'Metropolis Part II: Scenes From a Memory'. It sure is great piece of beautiful art. Stratovarius' 'Fourth Dimension' is always a good choice for any game as well.

I don't know much about Dream Theater, I only have heard one song: Metropolis. It's good, and I've heard that their songs are all around 10 minutes each. btw, is 'Metropolis Part II' that cd that all songs are linked together, without pauses between them?

Well, if I don't like the game music, i just put on Metallica or Yngwee or Steve Vai or something along the genre anything from rap metal to heavy metal to grunge to death metal to speed metal anything! :evil: and if I'm really feeling out of it.. either Enya or some JPOP will do..! nyahaha!:evil:

About dream theater, I also like their songs like erotomania , hollow years etc...

Exactly, Zephon. In fact /there is/ a slight pause between songs 5 and 6, but it's more like a sudden change of rithm. Ahh... Metropolis... one of their best songs ever...

Holow Years makes me feel melancholic. I like very much this song as well...

Yeah, actually i listen to it, it makes me feel depressed.. COOL! hehe :evil: Well, from your handle i can see what type of music you listen to Death Metal..

Heh! Actually I'm much more to melodic metal (like Angra, Edguy, Savatage, Nightwish, and so on), but I also love very technic songs characterized by the progressive metal (Dream Theater). Doom metal perfectly suits my tast as well (sometimes I get to be too melancholic: After Forever, Dark Seed, Theatre of Tragedy...). Best fast songs are from Rhapsody (melodic-epic), Pantera (thrash), Slayer (death), and others... they're all Heavy Metal! But anyway, it's also in my list Beethoven, Strauss, Yohan Sebastian Bach...

Death Metal: You ever listen to Paul Oakenfold?
