Music for gamers
 

Simply.. What music do you listen to when you game .? For me, it depends on the game. When I play arcade games, I love blasting rock. Dragon force was always on repeat. So, what do you like to listen to when you game .?

Well, when I play car racing games, I tend to listen to grunge, post-grunge, punk-pop, skate punk etc. Hip hop and reggae fits with racing games too. Just as long as it doesn't steal focus.

Ah. Agreed.. Any specific songs or artists .?

I usually turn off my own music when I play video games so I can hear the in game music. If not, it's just the same old stuff I always listen to.

Yea.. When i play FPS I am focused haha.. Only with fighting games and any type of driving game do I listen to music. Or arcade games. THE NEW PACMAN especially .!

I really only listen to music when I play an FPS. Usually something lively, light-hearted, and with a steady beat. Lately it's been Caravan Palace, Foster the People, MGMT, At the Drive-In, Frank Zappa, and De Facto. I'm not particularly invested in staying alive as long as possible during online games, so distractions aren't really an issue.

Ah.. That's where we differ. I'm all about that KD ratio for my FPS games haha.

I loved the music in Deus Ex- Human Revolution. Anyone else like it?

I need a deep bass song.. Any genre that would be good for a 'sniper gamer'. I like taking things slow and blowing off heads .! Any sudgestions .?

I love listening to Death Grips when playing Mario Kart.

I play trance because it increases the intensity, especially if I'm playing Fallout 2.

the videogame soundtrack LOL

Haha^^^^ this guy...

MK9 and dethkolk. Oh yes .!

'nuf said.. Haha ^^

I have a song for u that i always listen too when i game.
Eiffel 65: P.L.A.Y.S.T.A.T.I.O.N.

Even though its the soundtrack from the movie, I love the music from Silent Hill!

I prefer listening to what's going on in the game so I dont really listen to anything else outside of it.

Depends on the game.

I can clear Mass Effect 3 SP missions in minutes on hardcore if i'm listening to the right tunes.

Skyrim.. I just play my Pop list.

TBH.. its game dependent, but overall I either play my Pop or Rock playlists.

I know its corny and played out....but BOOM by POD...it has that constant beat and guitar riff going and they start randomly saying BOOM....and I swear sometimes it exactly lines up with a good explosion or a nade toss or a tank shot...I enjoy this song while a game is going and it never distracts me


here comes the boom-POD - YouTube
