Rock Music in Games.

[A random person]

Uh, Guilty Gear?

 

[Clashero]

Pretty much all of Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.

Exactly this. I would have preferred if it had at least a minimal vestiga of Persian influence, but oh well

Also seconded: Devil May Cry (even if it sucks), EA sports games (some are all rock, some have hip-hop or latin songs).

You could get a synth, an MP3 player that supports playlists and then replace all the game music with yours.

 

[Pyre00]

Dynasty Warriors.
All 6 of them.

 

[ThrobbingEgo]

Easy Rider: The Game.

Good music, but the final boss is so cheap. I had two lives left, and he just kept shooting me in the face.

 

[Random Argument Man]

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. The VRock station. It was always on while I was playing.

 

[CenturionRyan]

Sonic Adventure and most Sonic games after it.

Most 2D/2.5D fighting games have a Rock soundtrack. Mostly Power Metal-sounding stuff.

Duke Nukem. (Megadeth)

 

[Stavvy]

Also, essentially every F-zero game

 

[Ophiuchus]

I lost interest in music as a whole after the mid-to-late 90s death of Britpop, but the Tony Hawk series reignited my interest and effectively led to where I am with my music obsession today (see yesterday's post about iTunes libraries if you can be bothered to find it for reference).

 

[Christemo]

if it counts, the metal in Killing Floor.

DBZ games.

 

[AkJay]

If done beautifully, the game is awesome, case in point: Call of Duty 4

 

[dontworryaboutit]

Pretty much all of Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.

LOL

Now I must stick my head in a blender.

Hell March.

 

[Kajt]

Guitar Hero: Metallica
Ba-Dum-Tish

Failure.

 

[hardlymotivated]

Hell March.

Oh, the memories...

I just had to go on YouTube and listen to that track again.

 

[garfoldsomeoneelse]

Pretty much all of Prince of Persia: Warrior Within.

Now I must stick my head in a blender.

Hell March.

Seconded. Pretty much any game with music by Frank Klepacki.

 

[Arrers]

Most "rock" music tracks in games suck a big black cock, because they're nothing but cheesy almost-metal riffs with no real beginning nor ending.

This, but with more flowery language.

 

[dontworryaboutit]

Hell March.

Oh, the memories...

I just had to go on YouTube and listen to that track again.

Shit is on my ipod.

Most of the stuff in half life 2, most notably
1.Sector Sweep
2.What Kind of Hospital is This?
3.Vortal Combat
Kelly Bailey is a genius.

 

[Deathsong17]

Pain has an awesome one.
