What Music do you Listen to when playing Games ?

I like to listen to a bit of rock/punk if its a shoot em up etcCyberkiller1

The music in the video game.

I listen to anything post hardcore while playing Mario Kart Wii online :roll:

In RPGs and FPS I listen to the in-game music. With RTS, fighters, and action games I listen to metal.

I listen to Prince while playing sports games, jazz or instrumental hip hop during COD4, and Nas whenever I play Zelda. I'm wierd :oops:

I have some times played videogames while listening to music on my mp3 but it usually distracts me so I just listen to what the game has to offer.

The Offspring or just the game because most of what I play has great music.

When I play Persona 4 I never listen to the music. It got old really quick and kind of takes away from the game IMO.

If it's something likea Total War, I listen to epic music like Globus, Immediate Music and Two Steps From Hell, and occasionally some symphonic metal.

For shooters, some power metal like Blind Guardian is good.

There are lots of games that aren't atmosphere-intensive. Sometimes the music is very replaceable.Cherokee_Jack

When the game has a fantastic soundtrack I don't listen to any music, besides the game's own music. However, when the game lacks interesting tunes I just listen whatever I am in the mood to. Just yesterday I played Tiger Woods 10 while listening to The Rolling Stone's Exile on Main Street and 12x5.

i always listen to the music in the game.

but if i want something else i usually some high engery electroinca....playing left 4 dead while listening to trance...its kinda cool :P

Same here. :P

The in-game music is what I listen to if there is any. Outside music only distracts me from the game.

I listen to the game. If the music/ambient etc in the game is bad enough that i need to listen to an outside source i probably wont play the game at all.

As a matter of fact, I listen to the game.

NIN, Rush, Queen...

For games where I dont need to listen to the characters etc I listen to rap/hip hop and sometimes bassline. But when the music on a game is good, or the story is important to listen to I dont have any music playing

I just put my entire MP3 library on shuffle. I have media controls on my keyboard, so I can skip tracks while still playing if I want to.

EDIT - I only tend to listen to my own music in games that have no in-game music, like racing sims and online multiplayer. Even then, I turn it down so it's in the background.

I listen to some Enrique Iglesias while I commit murder online.

I never listen to music whenever I play video games.

Usually have the game music

I only listen to the game music for anything that isn't on my computer.

And when on my PC, I only sometimes listen to outside music when playing online games.

And I only listen to Japanese music, no english for me.

When I play alone I usually listen to the game's music, but if I have some friends over I ask them to bring some cd's and we listen to pretty much anything that's upbeat. The Sugarcubes and Anamaguchi have been popular choices recently.

I only listen to the soundtrack of the game I'm playing.

When playing CoD4. I listen to Dope or Mudvayne.

The music in the games? :?

In game music all the time. In the past I would play my stuff in games like Tony Hawk though.

Metal no matter what game I'm playing because I don't listen to much else:P
