it always annoyed me that once u get out of a vehicle, the radio turns off (which it should), and u cant start listening to some music again until after u jack another car

but what if in the game, u could find (or i guess buy) some kind of mp3/radio player that ure character can wear while he's just walking around. that way u could listen to the radio all the time (if u want)

better yet, make it so that the mp3 player can play the songs u have on ure 360 hard drive, or are streaming to the 360 from ure computer

u can customize the soundtracks as u find fit

it would be so awesome if u could listen to some death metal while beating the s*** out of someone with a baseball bat!

it would be much better if u could turn it off with the push of a button while in game

Saints Row did it already. Besides, the guide does the trick. It can be a bit slow sometimes though...

when its thru the dashboard it just plays the music over the game....it would be cool if they mixed the music in with the game, so it streams into the game first and then is autoleveled with the ingame effects and then to the speakers

I can't think of a single game that stops streaming music through the guide.

REforever101

If you have a 360 remote (for DVD's and such) you can use it to change songs or pause music playing through the guide; and it works without opening the guide blade or pausing game.

I love that remote. I got it free which is actually the only reason i love it, but it works extremely well for pausing, playing, and skipping songs without going to the guide. Plus you can play Texas Hold'em with it...

Umm...  THEY DO.  The music doesn't play over the entire game, it plays instead of the in-game music.  Try it in Oblivion or Gears or Crackdown, or ANY game.  In gears / crackdown, you still hear your gun fire, you hear everything except the in-game music.

SAINTS ROW DID IT ALREADY!!!! All they can improve on it is adding a mobile radio but a mp3 by itself is good enough however.

Talked this over (before) with some other people. PS3 users can run around with a PSP/Walkman and 360 users could run around with a Zune ingame. It would be a nice little touch.

what if for the people with a video ipod. the game loads up the videos.and ther are lists your can place the videos in. like if you have a music video then you select it and put it in the music area,or if you have other videos such as a skating video/sport video on your ipod,you sleect sports.the game will then play those videos in stores.like if you walk into a music store or something you can see your video playing on a tv in there.or walk into a sporting goods store and see your sports videos playing there.or maybe if they do the whole gym thing again.get some workout music and have it playing in the gym.

Seeing as it was already in Saint's Row, I'm reasonably sure it will be in GTA IV. Rockstar needs to swallow their pride and realize some of the "copy cat" games had a few nice ideas here and there.

Yeah, it also be cool if you could break into houses and steal stuff. Like then you take it to your condo and pimp it. 60" Samsung HDTV+ Xbox 360 with vibrating chairs. Then you could play your arcade games on the tv, except it will be fullscreen, so you can acess the full game through GTA. Good idea- now im posting this.

I heard that you can stop the music and use other functions like skip to next track and skip to last track if you buy the media remote.

I actually prefer no music outside of the car.
