More Music........

[neo92boi]

Honestly I found my self hearing the same song like 75 times in less than 25 minutes and I only like three stations BEAT, VIBE, and Tough Gong and even then I still hear the same tracks on each station every minute

 

preach my people

I really don't take notice to the radio unless I'm in a taxi. It's not even remotely interesting except for a few songs on there.

 

I've heard there's some type of bug causing the stations to restart upon entering a new car, too?

[The Unvirginiser]

I like the talk stations and evil woman by ELO

The rest sucks I think

[domthecondom]

i duno it seems like there is only like 4 songs on one station hmmmm

[Mad Tony]

It's ok. Could've been a lot better, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be.

[Miky_Z]

Yeah i reckon few more songs would have been nice,but it don't really matter anyway.

 

[Boogie Down Bohan]

At first, I was somewhat disappointed by the music. But the more I've thought about it, I think they went with lesser known songs in an attempt to bring back the feel of GTA 3, and I think going with less commercial stuff is good for creating an underground NYC vibe. (and saving on production costs of course but that's understandable) And it's not as if they're all are a bunch of no-names, I mean you have Bob Marley, The Who, REM, Elton John, Black Sabbath, David Bowie, Genesis, Iggy Pop to name a few. It's just that they picked more obscure choices from those artists.

 

I will say i'm still disappointed with the Classic rap selection. Seeing that it's NYC, I was hoping there would be more east coast stuff from the 90's like Wu Tang and A Tribe called Quest. I don't care much for hip-hop from this decade for the most part, and I can't stand reggaeton.

 

But a lot of the songs have grown on me, even some of the stuff on Vladivostock. And I always get a kick out of playing deathmatch and running people over as something mellow like "Take the A Train" or "Cry" is playing.

i love the talk radio station, i think its called WKTT. its mint. other than that i listen to IF99 or LCHC. the rest are pretty sh*t to be fair. i think GTA4 has one of the wekaest soundtracks. it doesnt fit the mood and atmosphere of the game like Vice City and San Andreas did. but the dialogue on the radio is as good as ever.

[wafflemaster]

It seems like a fairly reasonable soundtrack to me. The leap from VC and SA was always going to be a little jarring, since they had all the advantages of nostalgia in their favour. Still, as someone who doesn't listen to popular music, I am relatively happy that R* share my cultural preferences, and applaud their efforts.

 

My only real complaint is that with so many different stations, it can take a while to find Radio Broker !!

[Capricornus]

The sound track is decent but it could have been better. Then again it does blend well with the game's time frame. I don't listen to it too much though, but I love to listen to Kanye West's "Flashing Lights".

[Mashy_DFC]

A bit disappointing to start with, but like the Electro Choc and Tuff Gong (Bob Marley) channels, and the Jazz channel is good for driving round at night. Also like some of the stuff on The Journey especially Jean-Michel Jarre. Shame they didn't keep K-Jah from GTA3 which was all The Scientist (dub-reggae) and made me buy 4 of his CDs, and also some classical music, and some more House tunes. Can't be too fussy though.

[DGK is good]

I just listen to my Ipod when playing on my Xbox.

[88survivor]

Yeah, it does blend well with the time. I'm just afraid some of the well known songs are going to be in my head 24/7. Like Kayne West's new single...ugggh.
