Best music to listen to when gaming

[RUINER ACTUAL]

speed metal if i feel like it. cod4 10 sensitivity + lotsa monster + ridiculously fast metal = awesome.

my friend listens to gospel music when he plays cod. just for the irony of it. and he does great.

songs like "banana phone" are fun to murder to too.

During any boss fight: "you're the best around" by Joe Esposito (It's from the karate kid) that livens up any boss fight

Heavy Metal

I love listening to 'ride of the valkyries' while playing IL2 Sturmovik.

It sometimes depends on the game I'm playing. I have the Hellsing: Raid soundtrack going if I'm playing RE4. For me, it just adds to the mood ecspecially if I'm playing in the dark. Otherwise I'll have some Flogging Molly or something going.

Completely depends on the game.

For Painkiller and other games where you fight hordes of enemies I had a 15 song playlist, I lost it(not in my normal playlist folder) but it included Ride of the Valkyries, Jib Jig, Yakety Sax, Canon Rock, Cliffs of Dover, Time to Say Goodbye, Fundamentum and Requiem for a Tower.

Every other game depends on my randomized playlist. I might skip inappropriate songs but usually that's not needed. The second time I played HL2:Ep2, Yakety Sax started playing at the end of the game, it showed that Yakety Sax can make anything funny.

Not a damn thing. I always turn off in-game music, and kill my radio. Would rather just get lost in the experience than pretend I've got a soundtrack in my head.

I love the music in the games I play, but for things like mario kart [god kill me] I will try the iPod, though I'm usually with my cousin and talking amongst our own Mii's. I'll try it sometime with something...
