Another +1 to the engines. After the initial shock wears off that I am actually playing GT5, I'll probably flip on the radio or something. I can never have music playing out of my racing games though :D
 
I will only put some music on in the menus. While racing and in replays I prefer no music at all, only the sound of the engines and surroundings. In the menus I prefer older punkrock like Ramones, Misfits, Agnostic Front etc.
 
Not having gone through the 450 posts in this thread, I'm going to ask: Do we know which way the game will handle custom soundtracks?
 
Justice - Genesis. Ahmazing.

Also a bit of Nicki Minaj :sly:

Btw, Burnout Paradise allowed you to play your own tracks, as did Midnight Club: LA.
 

I used to have this on MP3 as it was a free download on Ulrich's website. I think I lost it (shame) but it would be cool to include my favourite GT4 track.

By the way, I liked how there was a fully functional iPod in Metal Gear Solid 4. It would be nice if GT5 has something similar so we can change music in a simple but interesting way while driving, watching replays or browsing the menus. That's how custom soundtracks should be integrated. 👍

We don't know the details yet - but some have speculated that it is the musical note icon on the "My GT" home screen. From there, I suppose you disable the game's BGM and select the .mp3 files that are on your memory stick or hard drive and you're off!
 
Oh, so the current thought is that it will be just like it was in GTPSP? Okay, thanks. I'm just hoping it isn't done the way that most developers do it.

Nobody knows yet - but I hope it's available right from the start and not an unlockable feature like in GTPSP!

Since the only game I've played with custom soundtracks was PSP... what do you mean?

I've got 122 mp3's sitting on my PS3 awaiting the same setup :-/.
 
Nothing i love hearing the roar of my engine. Ive always played GT with Music off except in the menu's and GT5 has improved engine sounds so thats all the music i'll need. :)

Most developers take the lazy way out and just make the music play on the background. They don't attempt to integrate custom soundtracks into the actual game.

He's absolutely correct.

In GTPSP and GT5, we can choose our own music to listen to while we drive - and it is only limited to our imagination, our tastes and our hard-drive space.

I think I may have to put buck rogers by Feeder on (only for a bit of nostalgia)

heres a couple going on my playlist :)

System of a down: chop suey
Lostprophets: last train home
Ill nino: what you know
Billy Idol: rebel yell
Disturbed: land of confusion
Hundred reasons: silver
Limp bizkit:Rollin
with nearly 5000 track's going on my new 320gb ps3 i'll have plenty to go at !
 
Daft punk, the orb, KLF, the presets, oasis, interpol and the killers.

Holy mother, somebody besides me actually likes Daft Punk.

I think most of the Daft Punk songs will go nicely with driving, apart from the softer ones, like Fresh and Something About Us.

2 other songs that I'll be listening to are GT-related. One was in a trailer, the other in "Beyond the Apex."


Chemical Brothers - Horsepower



SebastiAn - Dolami



Also, does anybody know the song that starts at about 1 minute in the last video? I'm pretty sure I've heard it in a GT5 trailer, but I couldn't find it despite looking through several trailers. If I can find the title, I'll be listening to that as well.



Edit: Thanks, RACECAR.

Edit: And how do you embed videos? Having some trouble...

TC Feat Sub Focus - Barrowed Time (Featured in the Night Racing Trailer)


As for embedding videos, you take the last 11 characters in the youtube link, then put them in between the youtube tags () and it should work like so:

I will be listening to

Sub focus, Pendulum, Prodigy, DnB, Dubstep and Trance and i will be adding this classic song from GT4
