Music to Kill to
Moderator: Beowulf
When I'm playing HW2, I like the Bach cello suites; the solo cello seems to go well with the remote serenity of space, and it provides a wonderful contrast to the war action; it also tends to go with the slow pace of the game.
However, I've also found the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack appropriate, as well.

A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

"Eva 00" and "The Beast" from Evangelion work well for particularly intense fights IMO.

I find I quite enjoy Starcraft's in-game music, especially as Protoss. Maybe it's just me, though.JME2 wrote:When I play Starcraft or Armada II, I play the movie version of the Transformers theme.

I like to play some older Mortiis, back when they did Rennie music. Also, VNV Nation gets the blood going, and now, OCRemix - The Dark Side of Phobos has been thrown in the mix.

Heh. Not quite the same, but invariably when we drop a Molten Core boss or (especially) Onyxia, someone plays the Mortal Kombat theme over Vent. So perfect.

Curiously enough, I was watching Flash Gordon in the background whilst playing battle for middle earth. The pitched battle in the nebula cloud soundtrack would not seem like a natural thing to pair with a mumakil charge on a gondor city, but it worked fantastically and victory was assured. Not that BfME is that hard.

While playing WC3, I set "The Power of the Horde" on continous loop.
Also, I play "I Stand Alone" by Godsmack.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
