They likely just didn't have the resources yet to license a lot of big-name music at the time of development - GTA3 was the smash-hit that made them a household name, after all. That's probably also why the Jah Radio playlist all comes from the same obscure Scientist album. I'm a bit surprised so many like MSX FM, I always found it to be pretty annoying. My favorite would be a close call between Chatterbox and Rise FM.

Like why is it there? The vibe couldnt be any further from the world you explore. Sure an 80s station in 2001 isnt that strange, but if you're going to do that maybe pick some good music? As much as I love Scarface the soundtrack really is hot trash. So why go with the OST? Did they really devote an entire radio station just to hint at the setting for the next game? Whatever reason they had for creating that abomination of an in game radio station cant have been good enough. I associate those songs with GTA 3 more than with Scarface lol. In a way I agree but I'm so used to that radio station that the songs don't really seem out of place for me. I don't think that I have a least favorite station. Even the opera/classical station is pretty decent but Vice City has to have the best soundtrack in the entire series. At least I'm pretty sure of that though SA and VCS are up there as well. 6 hours ago, Bartleby said: I'm a bit surprised so many like MSX FM, I always found it to be pretty annoying. My favorite would be a close call between Chatterbox and Rise FM. There are at least a couple of good songs on the tracklist I think. Maybe the MC ruins it for some people. The talk stations were better in VC (or even best though I can't remember IV's and V's too well) but I didn't even get a chance to properly listen to them in my recent 100% run because the game is kinda short surprisingly enough and the soundtrack is so vast (can't quite listen to the whole thing in one playthrough).

FWIW I modded mine and replaced it with a version without the DJ.

Kalashnikov1947 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) I wouldn't say I hate Double Clef, but listening to opera feels boring after listening other stations like Head and Lips.
