    Does anyone know what sort of songs have been signed up to be included in the radio stations yet? Its being set in the present but do you reckon theyll have 80s and 90s along with the usual talk stations?

    i'd imagine the ability to make your own with your mp3's and possibly the ability to play internet radio stations.

    More than likely, á la Saints Row

    Not sure a few of the radio stations are on the rockstar site. I hope it will be more modern music. Vice City was all 80s, San Andreas was all 90s IV has to be new modern stuff, well I hope


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,889 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    modern music is a load of **** though. itd be full of emo and crap rap stuff along with kelly clarkson and the others

    I really hope you can add your own music. Thats the best thing about the pc versions of GTA (as well as the better graphics, better controls etc...). If you can do that with the 360 version, i'd be very happy.

    All GTA's have had great music.....like there is not one song I didn't like in SA, the blend was amazing.


    Seriously you can't just say 'crappy' music because you like Oasis, or that Dublin band with the Junkie.

    Hope they also d a few piss-take songs as well :D

    Must've been either a troll, or an attempt at irony...

    i didn't like a lot of the music in SA cuz i don't particularly like rap and hip hop. Loved the all the music in VC and GTA3. i'm looking forward to some good tunes in GTA4

    :rolleyes: The GTA games are developed by Rockstar North, who are based in Edinburgh.

    To be fair though I wasn't exactly the biggest country music fan, but today 'hey good looking what ya got cookin' and 'in the desert no one remembers your name' are all residents of my Ipod.

    Hell at the time I hated 'rocker' music...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 907 ✭✭✭AlphaMale 3OO


    'in the desert no one remembers your name'

    You mean 'Horse With No Name'. Anyone remember the lyrics "The menfolk found their women scary coz they were so big and hairy"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,917 ✭✭✭nix


    I just hope the radio chat shows and advertisements are as funny as they used to be :D

    "They've taken your family hostage"

    "But im not married ! "

    "You are nooooow"

    And

    "I'll cry.....when im done killin!"

    But yeah i hope they dont mess the soundtrack up with today's pop/rap crap ;(

    When i frist played through the game i only listened to the rap and the likes, second time since i had overplayed anything i only listened to K-Rose(country music) bar 2/3 songs i loved the rest and have a few in my computer now!!

    Everybody from the top:
    ''....ALLLLLL MY EX'S LIVE IN TEXAS....'' :D

    I think I just came a little there meself....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,459 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    Now that it's been leaked. Does anyone have a full soundtrack listing of all the stations yet?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 86 ✭✭pocketac3s


    Just watching the stream there, Kanye West Flashing Lights is one track.


    I want this game.

    smashing pumpkins - bullet with butterfly wings is another track.

    if that's the quality of tracks on the rock station screw listening to mp3's or whatever.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭corcaigh07


    ah christ thats savage. the music was a little disappointing in SA overall considering the classics that could have made it(except GNR and Stone roses of course). since this game is modern day, anything could turn up. awesome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 183 ✭✭writetojd


    Hope Lazlo has a good input, quite funny in the other radio stations. Think he scripted a few too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,459 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    I believe Laslow is the guy at rockstar in charge of the radio stations.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    Here's a comprehensive breakdown of the soundtrack. Some crackers in there. Can just imagine blaring Jim Jones 'We Fly High' as I speed across the Brooklyn Bridge with the Manhattan skyline towering over me :pac: :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,459 ✭✭✭Blisterman


    Sweet. Last time I saw that, there were only a few tracks up there.

    Lots of great songs I know there. Most I don't, but what I love about GTA is how it introduces you to loads of cool songs, you'd never have heard of otherwise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭corcaigh07


    big budget soundtack. i see iggy pop and juleitte lewis are 2 of the djs! have they nothing better to be doing...


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭genericgoon


    Looks very nice. I kinda liked having a classical music station though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Smegball


    Holy Christ, thats the best soundtrack I've ever seen :O
    Justice, Simian Mobile Disco, Black Sabbath, Daft Punk, The Who, and loads more:O
    OMG :):):)

    Daft Punk? Class.

    I really want to wait for the game to see who's on the rap/Hip Hop stations.
