Posted February 14, 2007 With the upcoming release of Exite Truck, I was wondering, rather than just bunging my favourite songs into the game, that it would be better to chose music that suits the game. What music would you chose for a racing game? (I'll add some later) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 14, 2007 You basically need songs with fast riffs, like: Avenged Sevenfold - Beast and the Harlott Burning Brides - Heart Full of Black Motorhead - Ace of Spades Ozzy Osbourne - Bark At The Moon Anthrax - Madhouse (personal favourite) Dick Dale - Misirlou Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 14, 2007 Yeah the fast paste songs are always the best driving ones. As of the moment I have; Mountain - Mississippi Queen Muse - Stockholm Syndrome Queen - Don't Stop Me Now Led Zeppelin - Immigrant Song Steppinwolf - Born To Be Wild Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 14, 2007 My driving playlist inlcudes: Don't Stop Me Now - Queen Bat Out Of Hell - Meat Loaf Born To Run - Bruce Springsteen Buck Rogers - Feeder Bohemian Rhaphsody - Queen All Revved Up With No Place To Go - Meat Loaf Paradise By The Dashboard Light - Meat Loaf You want really fast songs, I've been listening to Fall Out Boy's new song (something like "This Ain't a scene its an arms race") whilst driving recently.

Posted February 14, 2007 One song I'm gonna have is stickin in my eye by rancid, there was an awesome moment once when I was on my way home from uni and it came on, it has a little bit of a mild intro thing, and then JUST as it was about to kick in I saw my train pulling in and had to start running, it was such a fitting tune, and I thought it would be awesome for a racing game, unfortunately it's a bit short. I'd suggest a few good meatloaf songs, and I dunno how it'd work out, but maybe some drum and bass.(Pendulum, High Contrast), they're awesome tunes to get you pumping, and would add the euphoria of playing the game, maybe.

Posted February 14, 2007 Some songs of The Prodigy and Relient K should go pretty well. I don't really know what exactly though. Guess I'll also have to think of it, as my Excite Truck should ship quite soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 16, 2007 Super Eurobeat Presents: Initial D the fourth stage. Nothing beats that my friends, nothing beats that. Let me add Initial D fourth stage: The Fire's on me. I would say any Initial D music will go great with a racing game (maybe except mario kart). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2007 I was gonna suggest it in my last post, but I didn't, but I was playing burnout revenge last night and they had it so I will; Helicopter by Bloc Party Revenge has some other good ones too, like Red Flag, On Top of the World, some other ones I like but can't remember.

Posted February 16, 2007 Pretty much any Initial D soundtrack, nuff said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2007 Avenged Sevenfold - Beast and the Harlott At least like the semi-decent albums! As for me: I like to whack on some Joe Satriani, perfect relaxing, yet up-tempo, driving music. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 16, 2007 Let me add Initial D fourth stage: The Fire's on me. I would say any Initial D music will go great with a racing game (maybe except mario kart). Song is included in said album. Initial D rocks. Apart from that movie drift racer. Kinda sucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
