Ive quit WOW until the next expansion and need a game to play when listening to some music. Something that we keep you busy but not make you miss anything in the game because of the music playing. All i got is TF2 but minimizing the game to change track is a nightmare when it takes 2 minutes for the game to show up again.

Im thinking of COD rifles and GTA IV any other suggestions plz.

Plants vs Zombies is good to play while listening to music. Easy to pause/switch songs. Game game be played entirely with the mouse, which makes it even easier.

Left 4 Dead, COD Multiplayer.. Any games that are run and gun and dont' require a lot of thinking I guess. Counter-Strike Deathmatches I ALWAYS do.

Don't run TF2 in fullscreen. There'd a windowed mode.

Counter-Strike: Source, for sure. I don't think there are any other games I'd play with my own music in the background.

Pretty much any FPS with no story or a missible one at best. I play Halo 2 listening to music for example, and although I like the story, to me its...easy to skip after my 3rd playthrough.

Just make a playlist on Itunes and put it on repeat.

Umm why don't you make playlists? I wouldn't enjoy gaming with music if I had to constantly swap tracks

I also listen to podcasts while playing MMOs. Whenever I stop playing MMOs my podcasts pile up. :)

I suggest you pick up another MMO.

Maybe buy a keyboard that has multimedia buttons on the top? Mine has them and it was as cheap as dirt.

Not a good idea. You can't hear the enemy's steps or when somebody shoots you from behind when listening to music.

So you play some CS they installed while listening to your iPod? Fair enough.

Seriously? Pub = Public Game. Or are you joking? I can't tell.

MW2 is great with music, and the game alt-tabs a lot more easily than TF2. Or hell, combine it.. Beat Hazard! Where your music IS the game :D Although I can only take a few songs at a time with that.. the colours scramble my brain.

I can recommend playing COD-WAW (preferably the missions where you're attacking berlin) with this song playing in the background http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFS4zYWxzNA

Quite possiblethe greatest gaming experience of my life, it even beats Henry Tomaccino's fate in mafia 2.
