the metal and gaming

i'm new to the site, very well done. i'd like to see a discussion on metal in regards to gaming. perhaps thoughts on discovering the nuances of sonata arctica lyrics while grinding levels on final fantasy X or perhaps dragonforce helping you get your slayfest right on halo 3.

The rock radio station on grand theft auto vice city is quite good....

i mean it was good and that was kinda a newish thing for a game but it's not like i heard a track on that station that really put me in my state of zen.

nah, but it is quite good driving round on a chopper on GTA while listening to Iron Maiden and Ozzy Osbourne...

i ALWAYS hear power metal when i drift on Paradise City (luckily PS3 allows to put soundtracks ingame) but for me its blasphemy not to hear the Final Fantasy Soundtracks while you play. maybe im just too obssessed with it as my friends say so

oh well i dunno if you can do it in every game. i think only EA Sort games support it or you an do it only with Burnout

that's a shame....lol.... we'll just have to turn the sound down a lot then...

On GTA San Andreas they usually play Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd, Mother by Danzig, Slow Ride by Foghat or Woman by Wolfmother on V Rock.

dude i hear you on the final fantasy theme music aspect, but, honestly your gringing for like 6 hours trying to get the last of the last fiends from all over spira, gets kinda old. not every stage has the awsome airship or chocobo themes, or another example, trying to get a 0.0.0 in chocobo cather, that music is just aggrevating right? (bye the bye i still have not done it! too hard, that and lightning dodger! wtf

oh well my CD was ruined because i played endless hours so i couldnt go to the final boss XD. the only thing i could do was grinding so i got used to it and yeah this music sucks and it was kinda difficult but if you beat it you get Ultima Weapon as a reward so i managed to beat it after some tries

Nothing makes a game more bad ass musically than an Ipod loaded down with skull crushing break-downs.

Welcome to the real world, i mean to the jungle, aagh nevermind...

thats the spirit man!!! welcome by the way

Sweet, Glad to be here mate. My brother told me about you guys so I figured Id stop by. Nice site BTW.

Quake games, the guitar heroes and The Tony Hawk series always have awesome metal songs

Tony Hawk games have metal?? Like what????
Anyways I don't really care if a game has non-metal music (except if it's rap or some shit). Like Castlevania has really good music.

yeah! i know how to play Bloody Tears (gothic version) on keyboards. i was blown away when i first heard it. its an awesome solo

Metallica, Maiden, Mastodon, Slayer and Megadeth all have songs on Tony Hawk games.

punk band 'sum 41' lyrics from the song 'Fat Lip'

and I quote....

'Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised'

so you've been playing a castlevania game on the ds with its little kinda crummy speakers and gone "did i just catch a little analog metal rif" "wtf"

nope. i have been downloading Cradle of filth stuff and i accidentally run into the song. it is said that cradle of filth (it is a death metl band if you dont know them) composed this song but i think its just a rumour. by the way i have never played castlevania

I played nearly every Castlevania but could never finish any of them...

And the song you're talking about is a Symphony of the Night OST not a Cradle of Filth cover.

saw cradle of filth live with lurk o matic in orlando, dude it is a really rewarding but tedious job to finish a castlevania game

I'm The Wind - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night<--->you tube, tell me that aint what ya'll are going about cause it is garbage

No it's Castlevania Symphony of the Night - Bloody Tears
