Kinda interested what anyone thinks...if you listen to music you like while playing online or off, does it increase your performance at the game in your opinion?

I prefer no background noise. Sometimes i'll put my headphones on to prevent this. I also have the sam music off. :)

NO SAM MUSIC: This is wierd as I LOVE the Sam background music, I think it lets you know what you are doing in the game, and not that you have thought you have killed someone, but havent, then they go and kick your teeth in.. :w00t: :rofl:

Other sounds I keep at 100% though so I can hear (or try to hear) what's around me. I only keep the song off.

Oh bull with all the earth-quakes - your volume maxed if you had the most powerful bass speakers in the world, they'd be running for cover - then you'd be known as the terrorist above BIN LADEN!


This crisis in iraq is all rubbish ...

IMO music distracts you if you want to play focused

My Sam music is off. It doesn&#39;t matter to me if I have other music on or not. Heck I sometimes play while watching TV at the same time. ;)

I need about 10 feet of svideo cable then i can hook my computer up to my 13 inch tv and play in bed. :rolleyes:



BTW I can watch tv but i do really bad if the music is on. :WTF: :hmmm:

It would be better than spending a bomb on S-Video cable...

I have my music off as well. Its too annoying after awhile. But as for the background noise its all the way up baby&#33;


I figured that if someone is watching me then i seem to do better just to show off I assume :thumbs:

I do hear da musac. I get bored really quick if there isn&#39;t any music playing. Besides I get fraged before I react, so why not listen to the music? Haven&#39;t played in a while BTW.

Unless I&#39;m playing in some sort of tournament or clan match I&#39;ll have my own music playing; I don&#39;t really care for the sam music, but some Underworld or Hendrix helps me get in the zone sometimes. ;)
