What if GTA III had new music?

I would leave GTA III's soundtrack as it is but if I had to add one song, it would be this for Game FM

I love the soundtrack from GTA III, there would be no point wanting to change it.

I agree. Changing it would suck.

Back to the Streets is kinda fitting.

Oh, and if Vice City had been set in the late 90s/early 00s...

Sheryl Crow - All I Wanna' Do

 

Got any more? I might actually make a Vice City radio station in that time period... ;)

 

 

 

 

Darude - Sandstorm

 

 

Putting that song in the custom radio station in the PC version makes a lot of the missions seem much more insane when it kicks on.

I like it, but it's annoying when it fills entire comment sections.

 

I enjoy that joke, but mostly because of how angry it makes some people. For such a harmless, somewhat enjoyable tune it can cause a lot of chaos. :p

 

So I ain't the only one who actually likes that song. DARUDE - SANDSTORM, nigguh!

 

 

I always liked Sandstorm by Darude... I think the first time I heard it was 2003ish... then someone put a midi version in their game back in 2005 and I was hooked...

 

Here is a good song fit for GTA III... Kudos if you remember this

 

 

 

heres a hint... Nickelodeon early 2000s

Not a late bump I think...

 

Ideal for Game Radio.

What could be changed was Rise FM. I really disliked that station, even though I kinda like Trance... it was some of the worst choices for that genre. It could've featured more European Trance, check out some musicians like Emperor, Michael Baur, Sunbeam etc.

 

Another thing, a station playing true Techno choons like The Fix FM from GTA1 would be perfect. I dunno why, but I have a nasty feeling such station was featured in the Alpha/BETA of III.

If GTA III had actual music from its time period, this would've been a disaster. I imagine a lot of fake pop, a lot of boy bands, a lot of girl bands, and a lot of nü-metal. I honestly can't tell which would've been the worse - Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls or some band like Limb Bizkit :/

 

Well, at least rap wasn't dead just yet in 2001.

I would add a whole new rock radio station, it would play songs from '99/'00/'01.

Green Day-Waiting

System Of A Down-Aerials

Queens Of The Stone Age-The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret

Rock wasn't all garbage in 2000's time frame. But I would drop Limp Bizkit, Korn or Linkin Park for some realism hehe.

Nothing matches the good old 2001 vibe. I couldn't change the soundtrack to the simple of excellence we have now. No other soundtrack can match the atmosphere we have with this great game.

Actually the music on GTA III is very good, IMO. But I liked listen some Eminem 1999-2000 songs in the game. Something like The Real Slim Shady, etc.

I would bring the beta radios, as WLLC could be an indie pirate station and Liberty FM a classic rock station, changing the:

Liberty Soul FM:

  • R. Kelly - Down Low
  • Mariah Carey - My All
  • Jodeci - Forever My Lady
  • Mary J. Blige - I Can Love You
  • Alicia Keys - Fallin'
  • Blue - If You Come Back
  • Destiny's Child - Say My Name

WLLC The Zone:

  • Low - Dinosaur Act
  • Figurine - Impossible
  • Animal Collective - Chocolate Girl
  • Liars - We Live NE of Compton
  • Ladytron - Playgirl
  • Air - The Vagabond
  • Kings of Convenience - Failure
  • Zero 7 - In The Waiting Line

Liberty FM:

  • AC/DC - Highway to Hell
  • Deep Purple - Burn
  • Queen - Don't Stop Me Now
  • Black Sabbath - Planet Caravan
  • Kansas - Dust in the Wind
  • The Clash - Train In Vain
  • Thin Lizzy - The Boys Are Back In Town

Some good drum & bass mix with new music (with MC of course) for MSX fm:

 

 

but as we discussed it above - in this case it shouldn't be called MSX FM

Pardon the double post (since the last one was two weeks ago), but I do think Head Radio needs at least one Gorillaz song. 19-2000 seems like a good choice.

If that were the case, I would light myself on fire in a Circle K parking lot

 

But yeah, I get what you're getting at but part of the "charm" for III with me is the custom soundtrack. You got house-made pop music, I believe some songs on rise fm were done for the game, and so on. I enjoyed how they carried that over to LCS rather than licensing music from that era, like what VC and SA did.

 

Only Head Radio, Lips 106, and Chatterbox contained original content.

 

Rise FM comprises Generation Records GEN401 to GEN405.

I thought some of the Slyder stuff was either in-house or commissioned but thanks for correcting me from 3 years ago.

If Rockstar commissioned any of the music, they didn't take ownership of it or even go after the distribution rights, which is highly unusual. Pay someone to make it then license the right to use it? Makes no sense.

 

From a budgetary perspective, they saved a ton by going with "unknowns" and Craig Conner and co.'s taste in music is pretty f*cking good IMHO, which helps too.

GTA III has a rather good soundtrack.

 

If it had songs from its release time I would add things like:

 

Game FM

 

Coolio - Gangster's paradise

 

Lips 106

 

Ace of base - Life is a flower

Fool's garden - Lemon tree

Titiyo - Come along

 

Else

 

The offspring - Pretty fly for a white guy
