Im really getting into the spirit of Brutal Legend, so i've been experimenting with all of my games to try to find out which one is the most fun to play while listening to Heavy Metal. i tried call of duty 4, mass effect, fallout 3, Gears of War, Mirrors Edge, Halo 3, and The Orange Box, but none of them really had the right atmosphere. Then I tried the Burnout Paradise Demo and had a blast, the music just matched up with it perfectly.

In your opinion what is the best game to play while you listen to heavy metal? .....and if you dont listen to metal please dont post, thx.

anything but Nu-Metal, I hate that crap.

I had a random playlist of all sorts of metal, like Black, Death, Hair, Thrash, Melodic Death, and power.

so preferably a game that goes well with all kinds of metal, or just post a game for each genre.

Perhaps a fighting game like street fighter or soul calibur. Nothin' like slayer blastin' in your ear while you pound the crap out of someone!

Now that you mention it, I do remember something that resembled Pantera while playing Doom.

I found the Pantera video on youtube, Mouth of War. Around :25 is a memorable Doom riff.

There's indeed a few metal song that ended in Doom.

E1m1: Sounds like No remorse from Metallica if you listen carefully.

e3m3: Sounds like Behind the Crooked Cross from Slayer.

i always play my games to music but not just metal i listen to everything really besides country. I have to say at the moment im listening to alot of tech/death metal bands while playing gears 2 it just gets me pumped and then i do really well.

Necrophagist and the faceless helped me go 80-10 in a game of annex plus i wasnt even the host.

I listen to Iron Maiden, Anvil, Judas Priest, Yngwie Malmsteen, and a lot of 80's hair metal and I listen to them during Call of Duty 4 & 5's multiplayer and it works for me.

I also listen to Jason Becker, Neoclassical guitar seems to be good with most things.

Most definitely. Racing games are the only ones that just feel RIGHT to play while listening to music...especially metal.:)
