When I actually do put on some music while gaming, it's usually just whatever I'm in the mood for. But thrash metal is by far the best music for racing games.....though I'm really not into them anymore.
I listen to the in-game music. Listening to other music just seems, I dunno, a bit like watching a movie with the sound muted and talk radio going. What's the point?

But the music might be bad and you might wanna listen to other music.

Again, it's like a movie. Would you turn the sound down and listen to something else over it if you didn't like the music in a movie?
whatever comes up on shuffle on my itunes. and i got blues, jazz, classical, hip hop, death metal, black metal, pop music, rock, punk, etc. etc. basically it changes every song.
[QUOTE="Fightingfan"] So if I was a video game programmer and replaced the games audio with Justin Bieber would you guys "crank dat sheet up"? And that is why God made the mute button.
This. Online time I turn the intake music off is if it is a FPS. But that's because I want to hear my enemy as they approach. Which means I don't listen to any music at all in those games.
Music Off, SFX cranked. Especially for Racing games and Shooters (I need to hear you sneaking up for a knife kill, so I can quickly turn around and pop you in the face!!!).
Depends on the game. If it's atmospheric or story based i just listen to the game music, if it's an action based game like UT or CS then I mute all audio except for in game sound effects and if it's a long game where the music isn't important like Civ then i listen to podcasts/lectures/debates/spoken word programmes.
whatever i find entertaining to lsiten too.. sound tracks and people you probably a few folks u may or may not have heard of (or didnt know do music of any kind)
an exmaple would be P.O.D. they are fairly good but by far their most famous piece of work you probably didnt even know they did..
In most games I listen to nothing, or the in-game music if it's there.
There's some acceptions, like if I'm flying a jet or helicopter in BF2, or if I'm running around aimlessly enough that I don't care about hearing what is around me. Usually something off of what the subject matter would be if it were serious:

The music in the game. Most of it's pretty excellent so I don't see why I would listen to something else. Unless it's an awesome remix of the theme in the game that I would be listening to.
I have literally only once listened to anything besides in-game music while playing a video game. Ghost_702
The only time I listen to other during the game is when I play GTA games where I'm allowed to put my own music on the user radio. When playing games like Need for Speed: Shift on my PC, I do have my music going in the back ground during races though. Mostly because during races, no music is playing....:P
