I was playing Mass Effect today while blasting pendulum out my half working speaker (It is the left one so technically I can't really hear things to my right...ehhhhh.... I am only playing hard. xD) And got myself thinking, Gaming music.
On one hand:
I will listen to the game soundtrack, especially for the likes of Dragon Age (shitty game, excellent soundtrack), it definately adds to the immersion, I mean the music was built to compliment the game.
but on the other hand:
sometimes I feel like blasting something to take away the 'mundaness' we sometime encounter in games, come on, you know what I am talking about, after the 6th thrasher monster I would prefer something I can...'rock out to'.
My other excuse is that I am just terrified of the setting, an example of this is cave exploring in minecraft, yes it is stupid to be afraid of a square zombie, but the sounds make me jump out of my pants... you know...if I wore pants while gaming. so I blast the music to make me less of a pussy. So yes I admitted it, I sometimes listen to music so I don't cry manly tears.
Next post: some screenshots of games I have played this week.
