I know that some people, including myself, enjoy listening to certain songs or music types while playing videogames, to either enhance the gameplay for them or to just pump them up. What do you guys listen to while you play MechWarrior? I would love to know

[Arafinar]

First thing I do with a game is turn off the music, like to hear whats going on around me:)

[De4ths D1ciple]

Battletech/Mechwarrior is about Heavy Metal and blowing **** up. Gotta have metal instrumentals Battletech's logo has always been "Heavy Metal Mayhem"

[Smellyshoes]

Saliva, Metallica, drowning pool, etc.....

Speakers will have a mix of bands like Dethklok, Static-X, Lordi, and Motorhead, but only turned up to a 'background' music level.

My headset will be cranked loud enough to make certain I hear game sound fx and chatter from lancemates.

[Inquisitor Pain]

Skrillix and drowning pool.
Beneath The Asteroids.

Never played any of the Duke Nuk'em games. Static-X is known for songs like "Kill your idols", "Push it", "Bled for days", "Otsegolectric"...
Very industrial. If you like Prong or Shotgun Messiah, they're worth a listen.

[Mad Dog Monkey]

100% listening to some classic rage

they actualy had a push it remix for the theme song of a duke nukem game on the PS2 i belive

Just hearing the game is important. But sometimes you gotta rock out to some metal when ur blowing other people mechs up

[Cyenthies]

Some industrial ambient music works well for me. Plus with a 8.1 setup with all comms pushed to center speaker, (which is right in front of me), it just sounds beautiful when you fire 'em all at once....

[Tsula]

Personally I can would rather have team chatter in my ears then music. But I do have a radio playing some Celtic instrumental stuff. that's no joke keeps me calm in the cockpit.

I like listening to Classical (Mozart, Bethoven, Pachabel), as well as Metallica's "Damage Incorporated" song, and "This is War" from 30 Seconds to M A R S with maybe a mix from other artists as well.

This is war is actualy one of my top 10 favourite songs of all time. I have it on my ipod and everything

[Nacon]

I'm hearing impaired to both ears, which I wear hearing aids.
So I don't listen to music at all, I need to listen to the game to have full awareness.

But when I do...

I'm combating my depression and newbies with "Eye of the Tiger" cranked to 11.
